Man U should have hard bargained with Madrid and rinsed­ them out of players that we've wanted before like­ sneijder and huntelaar as part of the ronaldo deal

Teenbaby 77515 #43 I couldn't agree with you more.­ SAF has been able to polish gems out of nothing in the­ past and I'm sure he knows what he is doing.­ Valencia may not be THE man but who knows. Who knows­ about Ronaldo before he came to Man United? Some of his­ signings may not have worked out but in most cases­ it's because they could not adapt to the English­ game fast enough. Admittedly it will be tougher to­ defend the EPL championship next season because the­ other top three teams are getting stronger last season­ and will continue to do so this season. ManUnited in­ transition may still be in the thick of it all come the­ end of the season. We have to trust SAF. He has done it­ time and time again. Go ManUnited.

keep the faith fergie knows what hes doing time and­ time again no player is bigger than the club, no matter­ what real madrid or barca think united are the ultamite­ no doubt ronaldo will reget the move and united will be­ rubbing their hands on the 68 million profit they made­ on the wee winker, united till idie you watch this­ space ....

Where is your confidence on the coach! I though he was­ the best?
He has made the best choice any good coach­ can do! The player did not wanted to stay, he disagree­ with the Coach, saying that was a bad setup for the­ champions league final, and had a bad attitude! This is­ not good for team cohesiveness. Thus selling Ronalda­ was the only choice left.

As far as Valencia, he is­ good, but not as good as Ronalda. I would rank Valencia­ in the same alley as Tevez. Tevez is not that good, but­ he’s a fighter. I see Valencia as fighter as well, a­ player that puts everything in the field. It, might­ take him a season to get with the team, but you want­ people that are hard worker and want to be in a team!­

This has happened before, and it will happen again.­ (Becks, Vaan, Cantona, and Ronalda.) The team might not­ perform well next season, but they will get it­ together. SFA is one of the best coaches there is in­ the world, and he still knows what he's doing.
So­ if he SAF says he wants Valencia, then in his mind he­ has potential!

Ok, I got two thumbs down for my earlier comments,­ perhaps I did not explain things too well for those­ with no technical or tactical knowledge.
Valencia has­ only ever been at one reasonably big team Villarreal­ and they loaned him out after two games, last season he­ played 30 games and scored 3 goals, he has never played­ in any euro competition, so please do tell me, in what­ way is he good enough to play for one of the top teams,­ a team who could not match Barca, even with the­ 'best player in the world' on their side, and­ so they sell him and then possibly - the deal has not­ been done yet - buy a player who has not played for any­ of the top 30 teams, has played even one game in a Euro­ competition to replace a £80 million player.
If Utd are­ going to contiue to be a top team the must replace top­ players with top players, there are better players­ than Valencia that utd could easily get.
And by the way­ I do not think I have more technical or tactical­ knowledge than Fergie, but as aia questioned earlier is­ Fergie as wise as he was?

no player is bigger than the team he is playing for .­ fergie has played a blinder selling ronaldo. if he does­ not want to play for united then get shut . he has not­ been the player he was last season . 80 mill is enough­ to buy someone who wants to be at united and play for­ one of the big club`s in europe . fergie know`s what he­ is doing , so have some faith in him he will buy­ someone big , but it will be for the right money .­ hopefully he will be able to get tevez , i think he is­ a work horse . i hope we all have a good season cheers­ regards lancer .

lyndsey-mike- i know things have gone over evaluated in­ the prem but £300 for nani is going to far.

valencia and tevez permanently. we will still dominate­ cos all the top foreighners are leaving england.­ hopefully fifa will investigate spanish football and­ allow them to field only one government team per­ competition, as uniteds feeder clubs cant enter europe­ if united are there only barca or madrid should be able­ to enter, or there is a conflict of interest?

should sell nani , would probably get £300 for him

Whilst Valencia would be a good start, we desperately­ need at least two athletic, skilful and pacey­ midfielders and preferably in the six foot range. Our­ present midfield midgets are far too light-weight and­ are not good enough.

I am a utd fan, but I am now getting more sure that­ Fergie is losing the wisdom he has had, going again for­ another player who has only showed he can be good­ against the lower teams is a mistake, not that Valencia­ might not be a good signing, the problem is that we­ already have enough might make it players, Berbatov,­ Andersen and Nani are at the top of that list.
We need­ to buy players who have proved they can be good against­ the top teams, Barca, Madrid, Inter, Milan, etc,­ etc.
As I have already said in other articles Utd need­ to buy players like David Villa and David Silva, Silva­ is a perfect player to replace Ronaldo, he can play on­ both sides on the wing and has lots of skills and pace,­ he has also been loyal to his team and has not been­ trying to get any team to buy him; both players were­ involved in Spain winning the Euro 2008, Villa scored­ the most goals in Euro 2008, more that Torres.

In the­ end the big question must be, why sell on the best­ players in the world and then replace him with an­ average player, average compared to the best players?

i think sir alex must nego with igor akinfeev from cska­ moscow before other team start to bid this awsome­ player..
why not rite?

fergie wont be signing benzema or rebary or any other­ expensive player as valcencia will do the trick on the­ wing along with a new striker if tevez decides to go­ and just bringing in a new defender and goalkeeper

i think sir alex need to bu scout matias fernandes he­ is very good in midfield area and he is very good­ freekick taker...go and after matias fernandes­ (villareal)..i hope u all agree with me..

RONALDINHIO

HE WILL SCORE GOALS

WE NEED SOMEONE LIKE­ HIM AROUND ABOUT (20MILLION)

ALEX WILL SORT HIM OUT­ GOOD
