FERGIE TAKES THE MICAH

Good bit of business from Man Utd, buy home grown. How many do they have at the moment. Arsenal and Chelsea learn from the masters. Home grown players understand the English game best and will make England future world cup holders again.

Right, so Man Utd look to spend £25m on a defender and we all have to applaude that he's Home Grown. When Chelsea spend money its 'your trying to buy success'? PS Hope Chelsea buy Richards and have 3 out of Englands back 4!

Rafa take note, please you to have to break bank again this season for Micah, he is quality and that's what Liverpool should be aiming at, instead of instead of fringe buys like Pennant and some of the foreign cheap buys.

Rafa take note, Man U are on the verge of winning the title and already are thinking of bringing such quality - if possible break bank to land Micah and any quality players instead of fronge average players like Pennant. Torres should be an example of what you get when you spend big but wisely.

Absolutely right Brian. Man Utd. are the biggest spenders in world football according to the statisticians, but criticise anyone who spends the sort of sums they do. Arrogant hypocrits. 30mill. Ferdinand , 30 mill Rooney , 28 mill Veron , 20 mill Ronaldo, 18 mill Carrick etc etc etc.

Its well known in football circles that micah is an arsenal fan ,and with the brand of football they play its little wonder.i dont think man u or liverpool could attract him and he is a bit of a weirdo with his threesomes and party life style.i think he's a massive risk despite his obvious talent.alan hutton of spurs is the best right back in england and is also british.

WHAT GIVES FERGUSON THE RIGHT TO BUY SOMEONE FROM A LOCAL RIVAL WHEN HE DOESNT LET HIS PLAYERS JOIN A RIVAL TEAM!!! REMEMBER NOT LETTING LIVERPOOL BUY HEINZE!!! IF I WERE CITY ID TELL HIM TO RAM IT.
FERGUSON SHOULD BE PUT IN HIS PLACE, IF HE IS SUCH A GOOD MANAGER WHY DONT HE GO BACK TO SCOTLAND AND MANAGE THEIR POOR TEAM, LETS SEE HOW GOOD HE IS.

Ronaldo ONLY cost £7.7 million, NOT £20 million or even £12 million that is always quoted. £12 million was the total package i.e. £7.7 million transfer fee and the rest was how much his contract (wages) was over 5 years.
United was still a plc when they bought him so had to list it all to the stock exchange, read it for yourself if you want.
£7.7 million!! Absolute bargain!!!

I would be very surprised if we sign Richards. It would be like Gerrard going to Everton. Don't get me wrong i would love to see him at utd next season. Just imagine Rio, Nemanja, Eva and Richards. What a back 4 that would be. All we need then is Karim Benzema from Lyon up front. Then stop us Abramovich, you could spend £180m on Messi and it wouldn't make any difference.

Oh dear, listen to you lot. Its embarrassing looking at you all getting catty at eachother about a news story!
Ferguson is a great manager realvandal, look at his work with Aberdeen before joining utd, it shows where time and investment into a team pays off, too many chairmen do not give managers the chance to establish their ways with a team and make an impact. Dein did it with Wenger and he is the only other manager who has made an impact to Ferguson!
About money, im sure if utd signed Richards they would be applauding the fact that he was home grown, but english players are all getting massive transfer fee's, look at what people are asking for lampard, and he isnt really that good! Gareth Barry will collect a huge fee this summer no doubt, but who cares, im just proud that the premiership has been awesome this year and we have 3 teams in the semi's of the champions league! Stop biting at each other, and enjoy the football.....

Realvandal dosen't think much of MUFC manager Fergusan. Just imagine if we only had a good manager!

Wayne your right about ronaldo, but what about all the other signings you tit. Veron, Carrick, Rio, Hargreaves and players like Kleberson, Forlan, Taibi, Djemba Djemba, Saha, nani 20 million Carrick lol 18 million for Carrick thats crazy. You then look how much someone like Wenger has spent in last 3 or 4 seasons, whole team cost, Almunia 2 million SAGNA 6 MILLION CLICHY 500 GRAND TOURE 500 GRAND GALLAS FREE HLEB 10 MILLION CESC FREE FLAMINI FREE WALCOTT 5 MILLION RISING TO 10 RVP 2.5 ADEBAYOUR 6 its a jokes and also wenger has brought his duds, how can united fans even argue the volumes of money spent at old trafford, in my mind out of last summers transers by united only anderson looks to be worth it, the rest of them have alot to prove, note tevez contract is very confusing

David you prat....

how about the millions Wenger has spent on players/flops????

Reyes springs to mind!!
And where the hell did youget the idea that Gallas was free?????
As i recall, he cost in excess of £20M, as he was a direct swap for cole.... Get your facts right!!!!!

WIT POOR TEAM IN SCOTLAND YA **** RANGERS AND CELTIC WOULD HOLD THEIR OWN IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE!!!!

come on manu go for who ever you want micah richards is good just 19, again home grown the only premier team with about 6 -8 players all HOME GROWN are they jealous? of you fergi and what you have achieve. they dont understand you dont sell players to arsenal liverpool or chelsea, that is for years now, so what are they talking about, check out kenwyn jones from sunderland? stupppps they all sucks. stay up MANU I LOVE YOU

it looks like utd are trying to buy the title again next season people say chelski buying it but utd have spend about 85m last season and bought it this year

i dont think he will come anyway yeah it would be a good buy but i dont see it happening

micah ricahrds would complete the already best defence in the world!!!all young and fresh and that would give united some height power eswell.great signing he would be plus all the other signings joining united in the summer....united will be the best team for a long time to come and will surpas liverpool in league titles..

Come dudes you know that if he supports Arsenal he would go there. Why would he put himself through the torture of going back City is a scum shirt.

MAN UNITED V CHELSKI

The difference between Man u and Chelski is that Man u can spend their own HARD EARNED cash while all Chelski do is RELY on their russian chairman!

End of

let the transfer war begin on micah, all i know is oldham athletic get a percentage of the transfer and it will a boost to the latics when it happens.

UTD spend money they get from winning leagues. Simple! Chelsea spent money they got from their oil tycoon.

to realvandal ..think you talk too much. fergi did manage a team in scotland thats how he got the job ..dafty... plus i think united should spend what ever they like on players.. as they are the ones makin it ..more cups we win the more money we get UNITED TILL I DIE

why do people still talk about arsenal and how good their youngsters are? YOU HAVNT WON ANYTHING FOR A FEW YEARS NOW! and and wats gona hapen to u lot wen flamini, hleb and gilberto leave this summer? Wenger is gona bring more rubbish youngsters in from france haha not even one english player on most arsenal starting lineups this season its disgusting!

once again man u splashing the cash, how much are they gonna spend this year on sore losers. gonna buy the league!

Micah,

Look what happened to SWP when he went to a big name club with a lot of money !!!

Go to the **** if you want to lose your England place which you claim you are so proud of....... First team football and your partnership with Dunne is what got you where you are today ... don't be another SWP and throw it all away so easily.

I Hate how people keeping coming up with comments on how united have bought the title. In my opinion the money spent this season was an investment for the future. The players bought this year have strengthened us but i believe it was the core from last year that has seen us through. I beeleive all of fergusons expensive signings barring veron have been good investments. rooney still only 22 and has already pretty much won 2 titles and a champs league. ferdinand has become a world class defender in his time at old trafford and a potential england captain. Time will only tell with nani anderson and hargreaves. But i believe nani and anderson will comed under fergies guidance.I believe you have to be very naive if you believe you can get english players such as hargreaves and carrick for cheap. Although expensive i think both players have been 2 solid signings and also add to our home grown talent. Asides from Veron all uniteds expensive signings have been value for money

Yeah, Man U don't spend 20-30 million pound on a player to help warming the bench. They spend on a certain player who is going to improve that position that is require. They don't go in and use that **** money to buy immediate success. Afterall,the money they spent are profits made from playing good exciting football.
Going to Chelsea will make Richard a dull boy. Not as like Man U, their game is always exciting to watch. So to improve his game, Richard should go to Man U.

Mmm ok so if he does go wont Man City benfit afterall they did win the FA Youth cup so they must have loads of good players ready to play at a higher level of football?

yeah, i've read u all but who say manutd would win this w/end. let me tell u all wigan would draw 2 - 2 with manutd, while chelsea would win 2 - 1. micah or no micah, english football at the national level is already in the bin. with all the press bloated players in the premiership,english is yet to win anything in europe and the world since 1966. tell me what is the diff between england and abramovich. both have money and no professional footballer that is good for world footballer of the year award.

I cant believe the stick man united and ferguson are getting!! Im a Bristol Rovers fan so by your standards to us everyone is buying success.
We accept we dont spend large amounts of money as we dont have the number of fans to create the revenue!
Man Utd do so they spend, thats how football works.
What Chelsea do is different, it is an investors money, this is bad for football as it takes power away from the fans and is what i class as buying success!!!
Man Utds method of reinvesting profits to retain support and ensure more profit is just good business!!
I also believe Richards would get first team football at old trafford which would strengthen his england position, he'll only become a SWP if hes always on the bench

this is getting sily now,,,man utd can splash out 25mil on def and it is seen a good signing but if was chelsea the claws come out sharpened,, oh and i read a comment on here claiming that utd signings are for the future,,so am guessing messi is coming to the end of his career,, and talking about flops, utd have signed many over the years yet they dont documented like for example swp,,get real utd are big spenders, and over the last ten yrs they have spent more than anyone,,and if it wasnt for ur prawn eating fans abramovich would have bought you. stop ******* about chelsea spending, its just sour grapes,, and what gives fergie the right to sign players from local rivals when he forced heinze to go to spain when he cleary wanted to play for liverpooln its a joke and arrogance,,and ps chelsea will spend big this summer and will take the title, or even retain it,,,but lets be honest, ur playing wigan and who's their manager, i wouldnt be suprised if he gave a few youth players a run out as they have nothing left to play for,,someone should rig wigans dressing room to listen in on the team talk to confirm what is expected, its just sad that the title will be handed to utd by one of their former players,,you know what if thats the case maybe bruce should get a winners medal too.

why does everyone turn everything into a war between united and chelsea, the only way for micah to go if he wants to improve his already great talent is to united, look at how well fergie does wit the young players, rooney, ronaldo,anderson,pique, even when brown(1of the best defenders in the league), scholes giggs, beckham,were youngsters!! they have all had great careers where be it at united or have moved on!!! chelsea can spend as much as they want as they have every right to because its their money,(well abramovich's) but look at what its baught them over the last couple of years,yes a good team and a few tropheys but even the likes of lampard and drogba are wanting out now as a result of all the sagas that have gone on btween the owner and the managers! that must say somthing about whats going on at chelsea at the moment. so i do think it would be better if he did come to united,possibaly not personally because of city fans but he can hopfully learn alot off gary. good luck chelsea at the weekend youve done well to catch us but think we are gonna win the title AGAIN!!! oh and who did the manager of wigan play for, for a number of years? he might even want to give the young guys at wigan a run against quality now that there safe!!!

i think that micah richards is the hotest prospect in the premiership, yes that's right even hotter than ronaldo. he's 19, nearly 20 and he has to be almost as fast as ronaldo, fantastic at tackaling and puts an unbelievable work shift in. to be honest if i was a billionaire and owned man utd, i would pay upto 50mil for this fantastic player.
