LUCAAAAAASSSSS

Lucas is a brilliant player, he played well against team GB and i just hope we don't miss out on this exceptional talent.

Denis law......I'm in my 40s for a start! And we all have opinions and mine is that untied don't have that kind of money! Players will be brought in but dream on its van persie and Lucas. Hope I'm wrong but I've seen it all before and it's usually the children that believe the media hype......and yes we did read it we just had a different view!

Yeah looks like weve been making a lot of noise about bidding for players we could never get in a milion years for a while now- oh we bid for David Villa etc

So how do you guys explain the fact that we had a bid for Hazard accepted? How do you explain that the lad had a straight choice between us and Chelsea? I find some of these conspiracy theories ridiculous I really do. Like SAF is some lapdog to the Glazers.

And there was me thinking SAF bids for players because he thinks they will better his squad when all along it was to convince people we have money that we don't really have.
We'll just have to hope other clubs are happy to participate in this charade and don't accept our offers hey?
The signings of Young, Jones, Kagawa etc etc were obviously just blips while we hone the technique of this conspiracy theory.

We might be wrong but some of us can't help but feel its a smoke screen. I'm afraid this is what the glazers have done to the fans, we simply don't trust them. Anyway, Lucas has legs because hell have a good sell on value if he does well......but van persie no way, like I said before if he really wanted him sir Alex would have bidded £20m. That's why Lucas might happen because over £25m for a 19 year old is serious. But let's wait and see and a few need, well one in general needs to stop thinking his word in gospel!

Basically, he is using RVP as foil for Lucas IMO.

Why would United want to convince people we have money? If we look like we have no cash to spend, clubs won't be as willing to try and squeeze out an extra 4-5 million in a deal, because they don't think we have it.

Bidding for players to show we have money is by far and away one of the stupidest theories i've read on here, sorry.

There is a huge difference between using a player like RVP as a smoke screen and not having any money to spend. I still don't believe that us the case anyway, but it is possible. Either way, it doesn't mean we have no money to spend.

I notice none of the conspiracy theorists have answered my question regarding Hazard. How could we afford his asking price with money to spend?
