Ric Flair Posted 11 May 2014 Posted 11 May 2014 United are going to do some serious over-spending this summer. They are under huge pressure. Southampton are going to get over £50 million for Shaw and Lallana. Frightening how much the production line of talent has gone from from them in the past 8 years or so.
foxfanazer Posted 11 May 2014 Posted 11 May 2014 Lallana is a fantastic player and should fit in well at Liverpool. Hope he starts in Brazil
Happy Fox Posted 11 May 2014 Posted 11 May 2014 As soon as Liam Moore plays a couple of games and performs well he will be worth 10 million odd the hype and over inflation of players value for English players is crazy, you wouldn't get that in Germany or Spain.
Corky Posted 11 May 2014 Posted 11 May 2014 "For me, Clive, the Shaw's, Lallana's and Walcott's of this world are top, top players in the best league in the world. The Ibrahimovic's and Costa's just don't turn up against English sides".
whetstonefox Posted 11 May 2014 Posted 11 May 2014 Watching Match of the Day and realising thats our next stop!
lgfualol Posted 11 May 2014 Posted 11 May 2014 Oh what's the use.. we'll never survive the premiership without Will hughes
NewburyFox Posted 11 May 2014 Posted 11 May 2014 Thing with Shaw is that even though he's 18, you're buying quality now. He's got ridiculous potential but he's a top LB already, and it's good to see a LB who can beat his man and put in a wicked delivery. It's hard to justify paying that much money for anyone but in the current market it seems about right. He needs to improve his positioning but he'll become one of the world's best LBs in my opinion.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 12 May 2014 Posted 12 May 2014 Saw we're 16/1 to sign Micah Richards. What's he on, 100k+ a week? I think Liam Moore, after 5 premier league starts, will be worth in the region of £7-9m. will score over 11 top flight goals (all things being equal). will get at least (likely more) 2 red cards over the season. And I'll just love him more for it. Other teams will exist, there will be a title fight, a European places fight and a relegation battle. None of which we will be part of. Liverpool won't finish top 4. Arsenal will win the league. Burnley will finish bottom. :drinky: Will be highlighted on Match of the Day a handful of times and Gary Lineker will, at some point, utter the line 'is he really a serious contender for England?' They're all my predictions for now, will be happy if 1 of them is correct.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 12 May 2014 Posted 12 May 2014 Oh and Riyad, Riyad will absolutely destroy teams on his own and will win a goal of the month and a player of the month award.
EnglishOxide Posted 12 May 2014 Posted 12 May 2014 English players are so ridiculously overpriced. And it will remain that way for as long as clubs continue to pay it! EDIT: Riyad will drag Algeria to the quarters of the World Cup and be named player of the tournament

The American assumed control of Villa in 2006 after a £62.6m takeover was agreed with the club's board. "A statement is expected and the signs are he's going to put Villa up for sale," said BBC reporter Pat Murphy. Villa finished the 2013-14 season in 15th position, five points above the relegation zone.

Jimothy Posted 12 May 2014 Posted 12 May 2014 The next MOTD programme will include us... Unless we play Sunday.
lcfc1994 Posted 12 May 2014 Posted 12 May 2014 WE ARE PREMIER LEAGUE! In an odd way, it have not sinked in that we are back in Premiership and will not be until I see BBC Sport refreshing their current Premiership table. It's not hit me yet either but that's probably the best way to make it sink in!
Big_Nige Posted 12 May 2014 Posted 12 May 2014 I'm really looking forward to this summer. World Cup year, prem fixtures released and exciting transfer dealings. What a contrast to this time last year. After that horrendous day at Watford I don't think I spoke for a week.This summer is going to be one big party.Can't look past Man City or Chelsea for the title. Man City will add to an already ridiculously talented squad. If Chelsea sign a goal scorer they'll push them all the way. Liverpool missed the boat this season but will challenge again along with a rejuvenated Man U. Arsenal will fade after a promising start and poor January transfer window. They'll finish 5th and Arsene will walk away.Burnley, Villa and West Ham to go down. Burnley won't spend any pound notes. Villa are a shambles and West Ham will sack Allardyce because the fans think they are Barcelona. They should be carefull what they wish for.Leicester will fly out the traps and be in the top half at Christmas. The season will fall away slightly and we'll finish a respectable 15th after a successful FA cup run to the Semi Finals.First managerial casualy - Paul LambertYou heard it here first.
lcfc1994 Posted 12 May 2014 Posted 12 May 2014 Only 45 days till we know who we have first game! I cannot wait!!!
Narborough_fox Posted 12 May 2014 Posted 12 May 2014 Villa are a very attractive proposition for anyone looking to buy a football club. A club with rich history whilst also having a top ground and top class training facilities. With the right investment, and manager, they'll be a top 10 club sooner rather than later.
foxfanazer Posted 12 May 2014 Posted 12 May 2014 Think United will benefit massively from not being involved in Europe next season. Still can't see them challenging but top four is quite likely
Permafrost Posted 12 May 2014 Posted 12 May 2014 Only 45 days till we know who we have first game! I cannot wait!!! Well, the good news is that you won't have to wait that long, as it's only 37 days 'til we find out.

Potentially yes, but getting the right owners and management is the hard part of modern day football. They could equally end up like Leeds.
