One of the brightest young talents in the game. Covers both questions.

Thank you, sir. I always trust Fegie's eye for talent. Just look at Ole, Rooney, Ronaldo, Vidic ect. All these players never made a name for themself untill they were at united.

12m for that lot is amazing

Is it though? If a Sunderland player can reach a figure of 20m then surely a Man Utd player (even if it is Gibson) is worth at least 30m

For club and country

I have to say, I recently havent been overly excited about Englands national chances, but when I look at the youngsters we have coming through, I really do get hopeful that in a few years we could have an outstanding England team.

Smalling, Jones, Flanagan, Kelly, Shelvey, Ramsey, Wilshere, Spearing, Carroll, Wickham, Gibbs, Albrighton, Cork, Henderson, Sterling, Rodwell, Sturridge, Wellbeck.

Some really promising young players there and theres others I've not mentioned. Do I dare to dream of our hopes in a few years time?

Indeed, I'd assume both O'Shea and Brown must be on 40k plus.

£12m bid for Brown, Gibson and O'Shea has reportedly been accepted. Sunderland getting taken to the cleaners just like we did after selling Torres.

For real? Thats hilarious if true.

???

4 goals in Euro 2004 says differently.

Tom84 · 8 Jun 2011 at 17:14

If it is O'Shea that's the third then we'll tell them where to go tbh

None of those are as good as what Spain or Germany will have to offer though, so I wouldn't get your hopes up just yet.

We dont necessarily have to be the best in order to progress in a cup competition, just good enough, as has been highlighted but some of the recent teams who have reached the semi finals of the world cup etc. I'd actually go one step further and say that quite often the world cup winners havent been the best team in the tournament, they've often been just good enough.

Don't dream. And 5m each for Gibson + o'shea + 2m for brown seems fair. Could try for an extra million or two I guess.

Ramsey is welsh.

Mceachran is good though.

You think O'Shea and Brown are only worth 2m each? :eek:

If those three go, that means we'll free up more wages and hopefully get far superior players to replace them.

I dont see that, I see more opportunities for youth players to come through.

Which is even better.

Say we run short in midfield, it leaves us with a choice, Paul Pogba, or Darren does nothing what so ever Gibson, who at the very least is a known quantity on a match day IE we know his legs work, he sometimes manages to pass to players on the same team and he quite often runs in the right direction.

Yes I keep forgetting that.

Wasn't there a load of fuss over Brown demanding ~£80k a few years back?

Robbo · 8 Jun 2011 at 17:21

You can't rely entirely on youth players though, as long as we get some proper top players in (like Sneijder), all will be well.

You've got a real hard on for Wesley dont you, almost as bad as Tombstone with Honda
