thats obvious right??? even if you say till the cow came home
its still SAF or ManU's board thats going to make the decision, i'm
just trying to point out that just a couple of days ago you claim
that he is very important to ManU with his 20 goals a
season and also even if he wouldn't score he would
still be very useful as he can be a strong Midfielder or
something along that line.. so now you claim that you see
him leaving not a big lose.. so which is which?? dun start
beating ard the bush liao.. just answer, he important or he is no
big lost???
Well, lets see... What were we comparing then and what is it now...
Its apple and orange isn't it? What I mentioned there i still very
much stick to it. You were talking about getting Benzema for a
suppose "cut price" just because its in a downturn as you called
it. You serious?
As i have mentioned earlier, Benzema is not going to come
cheap... Lyon's president is famous for getting the best deals for
his players simply because they are not a club in need of cash...
They are rich too and probaly the richest in France... They didn't
win the last 7 straight league titles for no reason... Mainly
bacause they can afford to keep the star players they want and only
sell if the price is very huge to the liking of their
president like the then unknown players Essien and Mahamadou
Diarra...
They were not well known names in World football like our Frank
Lampard or our Frank Ribery... But because of his hard headed
behaviour in negotiations, these 2 unknown players back then cost
Chelsea a then club record $38m Euros and Real $26m Euros
after much hassle... For you info, United were very much interested
in Essien before Chelsea came along but the priced quoted for a not
fully established player then frighten them away... It took a very
rich Chelsea then to pay a club record $38m Euros for him.
Today they probably wouldn't take such risk with an unknown
player anymore.
Adding now that Benzema signed a renew contract just this year
or a few months back to extend it to 2012, thats a very long
contract. So you seriously think the Lyon's president
Jean-Michel Aulas is going to let him go cheaply just because its
in a "downturn"?
Downturn or no downturn, if there are enough clubs able to
afford him, his price won't come down even in a downturn... The
likes of Real, Barce and you can also add Man City... are there and
waiting as well... Lyon also don't really need to sell or may not
want to sell for that matter...
Anyway, if you had notice... The topic here
is... If Tevez wants to leave because he is not getting
games... What do you think? This is the main point of discussion in
this thread... And I said in Fergie I trust. Because if Fergie
thinks he is not worthy of a place in the starting eleven and use
him as a sub, but he is not happy with it, then he is free to go to
another team that can offer him first eleven place. At the end of
the day, the team matters more than any individual, or worse an
unhappy individual.
Player like Solskjaer joint United as a 23 yrs old and stayed
there till today... He never complaint of whether the
got to play of not... But whenever he came on he did his best
for 11 yrs of his playing career... All i am saying is...
This are the type of players the club should keep. Those that
are not happy can leave... Simple as this...
Lastly i notice you keep saying whatever it is i wouldn't
wanna go on with it again and again.. but It seems to me like
you can't get over it and you keep coming back... I
actually forgotten about this already, I didn't
even bother to reply to your last post which was more or
less a repeat of your earlier post and you actually bother to
return to it in different forum folder and different
thread too... man... get over it lah...
