I just did a massive post booze dump. And I mean massive.

But this article is an even bigger pile of dung than what I just created.

No! Bye.....(Click..brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr)

No thanks, I'd rather give Di Maria another season. And keep your hands off Dave

Find your £200m for Hazard elsewhere

Are you suggesting we swap Di Maria for Bale?

If so, okay.

Meet me in the car park at the stroke of midnight.

Finally, someone who understands the game.

Di María plus cash. I'm all ears.

Everyone else, you'd make rubbish Woodwards. Come back when you've grasped the basics of negotiation.

If it's anything like the last one, it'll do us nicely.

Real will probably be too distraught to do any business over the summer what with Barca likely to beat them in the CL final and winning another treble.

posted on 26/4/15

Too distraught? Last time that happened (without a CL final defeat), we went on the biggest transfer splurge in history. We twice spent over the previous world transfer record on Ronaldo and Kaká, and added Alonso, Benzema, Arbeloa, amongst others.

If you're good boys, we might have another Robbn or Sneijder to spare.

Be sure to choose carefully.

Last time?

I don't recall you guys ever losing an El Clasico on the biggest stage in club football before? Surely it'll be a huge blow if you lost the CL final to the little Catalans?

But if you are offering, I'll take Modric and Carvajal please.

mu82, you missed the bit in brackets.

The basic point was that last time Barça did anything remotely similar, Pérez went on an unprecedented shopping spree. His track record suggests that if anything, he's the very definition of kneejerk rather than the type who might be cowered into inaction.

Modric isn't on the table. Well he is, but the physio's.

Carvajal for Di María? Sounds reasonable.

posted on 26/4/15

No, I got the point. I'm just suggesting that losing the biggest club football game in the world to your biggest rivals COULD have a physiological effect?

But I guess what with Barca's transfer ban you guys would want to take full advantage.

Who else you got for sale?

posted on 26/4/15

Or it could have a psychological effect!

posted on 26/4/15

If not Modric, i'd take Kroos and Ramos. And you guys let us have Reus!

posted on 26/4/15

I'm willing to accept Di Maria + £125m for Bale*

Deal?





























*Modric, Varane and Ronaldo also go to United as part of the deal.

'Dear ed,

Please LEARN to haggle. We've had put pants pulled on most of our last transfers paying 200% of the actual value of players in some cases'.

Physiological too - in that we'd shít ourselves mightily knowing the years of banter we'd be in store for.

Hmm, some interesting suggestions up there.

How about the original £150m+Di María for Bale and we chuck in Ronaldo for you as a makeweight?

Robbs got Northern Ireland blood in him though... Getting asked to meet in a car park at midnight over here could end badly

I hear you. Though you do not get to be a shady billionaire business man without knowing how to navigate a parking lot 'negotiation'.
