New summer transfer thread

Still undecided on whether i want him though; proven in the epl and can play both cb and lb but £7m for a 29 year old seems a bit too much, especially when you consider the way he played towards the back end of last season.

Agree, £7 million's a joke for a player that isn't even good enough to make our first team and hasn't got age on his side. Don't want.
 
id be happy, whack him in defense if he isnt playing shabby, and bump riise up to midfield, i personally think arbeloa is rubbish 99% of time, he doesnt remotely impress me, aurellio always impressed me more, but neither is half as good as riise, who has been proven he can play v well just infront of LB in LMF..
Although, id have babel over anyone playing LW/F :)
 
Alves to Boro for £9m seems to be gathering a bit of pace, would be an excellent aquisition and would defintly be consider spectacular if it could be pulled off

Good player, Utd stopped their interest in him for some reason.

Looks good overseas, will be interesting to see 'fons over here.
 
Afonos Alves not in herenveen squad for last nights game, on his way to the Boro ?

maybe im just getting my hopes up :p
 
Reading something on RAWK that he's gone to Boca (with us having 50% of any sell on fee) and in return we've got Insua on a permenant deal (who was going to cost us around £1m).

Not a bad deal, he cost us £2m and we've got a player valued at £1m in return and half of any sell on of Palleta. More or less got back what we paid.
 
Who Insua or Palleta?

Insua was on loan but from whats being said on RAWK we've now made it permenant as part of the Palleta - Boca deal.

Surely has 4-5 years in a top team as LB or Centre Half, so I wouldnt say £7m is over the top. Once he is fully fit he would step into your 1st XI in either position.

All about getting a run of games really and "fitting" into a team.

I think the EPL are getting their knickers in a twist un-necessarily serveral times this summer, and I cant see Man Utd losing without a lot of contract "laws" being revoked
