Not really a rumour but more a musing - how much do you think Giuseppe Rossi would cost now that Villareal have been relegated?
Geordiesteve
Ten million
I don't think he will cost as much as people presume he is an awesome player don't get me wrong (when he is fit) but he is injury prone the leg injury he has now was classed as "career threatening" when he first sustained it.... I'd honestly say it would be a major risk at 5-10 million
I was thinking about that I reckon 10-12 million should get him
Dont want him we had him on loan he played about twice and tbh if fergies gets rid of you,i mean how many young players has ge got rid of that ended up being top class....
Pique comes to mind
He is out for most of the coming season got injured again
Great player, wouldn't really fit into our team though in the 4-4-2 or the 4-3-3, maybe behind Cisse replacing Ba? And Ashley's unlikely to make a signing who is THAT injury prone, with that said we did buy Ba and his dodgy knees.
We didn't buy Ba he was free.
Two cruciate knee injuries in two years. not worth the risk
He wasn't really free, we had to pay him and his agent quite a lot. It cost around 2 million to sign him in total (correct me if I'm wrong Ed).
Ferguson didnt get rid of Pique he wanted to go back to Spain
If we give him 2 million signing on fee then the debt as been repaid off the extra tv money and getting into europe partly because of him..
Of course worth every penny, but we did have to pay something for him.
