yes the Anderson who was picked 100 times in 8 seasons wasn't it.
Are you genuinely saying he was a good buy !
He's still playing btw. Would you want him here? |
the fact fergie was happy to have him as a squad player for 8 years and playing him in major cup finals on a few occasions suggests you’re talking gibberish mate. He may not have gone in to be world class but come on, he’s won 4 premier leagues, 2 league cups a champions league. 2 league titles in Portugal and that’s just at 2 if his clubs. I’d reckon fergie would say he was a decent buy. |  | |  |

To be fair, he did play for Man United for almost 8 years! He wasn't a flop. |
I don't disagree. Perhaps my language was a bit clumsy, the point I was making was that when Man Utd signed him, the feeling was they had a potential world star on their hands. For whatever reason (and I suggested one) he never reached those anticipated heights, though by most standards still had a successful career... | | | |

As has been said, not every signing will work out, but due diligence by people who know what they are doing allied to a style of play which suits the players talents will improve the chance of a signing being a success.
If Swansea go down this season, (which I think they will) they need to get back to bases. To have the best chance of bouncing back, the manager needs to be in place almost straight after the season ends, the players who don’t want to stay/ the club can’t afford or don’t want to keep need to be moved on ASAP, the new signings need to identified and signed preseason - none of this nonsense in the last few hours of the window. The club needn’t have to spend a fortune Wolves have proved that, but the money that is spent needs to be put to good use. | | | |

Wish we had a great South American scout, there must a load of really talented players down there busting a gut to get to the premier who will never get the chance in their own leagues never mind Europe. |  | | |

Anderson also scored the winning penalty in the 2008 Champions League Final (and the 2009 League Cup final). For that alone Man U supporters will tell you he was well worth the price they paid for him.
For him to lump Anderson with Bebe is ridiculous. He didn't get picked for Brazil while playing for Man U for nothing. |
Anderson came on in last minute of extra time just to take a penalty didn't score winning penalty giggs did. Fergus clearly had alot trust in him imagine 1st touch of ball in a champions league final being a penalty | | | |

I hope Mendes is insisting his clients get a cut in their wages should we be relegated. | |

The ones that aren't tied to incredibly dodgy agent ownership deals are near impossible to get work permits for. It's not some great undiscovered market for grateful talent. | | | |

Mendes a man that brought Sanches to Swansea? he should be chased out of the town.

It's people like Mendes who are ruining football. Unsettling players, using the media to pressure clubs into improved deals/terms, substantially upping values so they can cream off millions for themselves. A cancer on the sport if you ask me, but like a cancer not easy to get rid of.
Maybe he can get us the quality we need to stay up, but at a cost. But if his track record here so far is Sanches for several millions I'd rather he kept away. |  | | |

As usual I hadn't read beyond the OP before replying, but yep parasites indeed. And he brings in Sanches (supposedly) and people want more  . | | | |
