True enough, Max. It still is really unfortunate that a team like United choose to poach kids from teams rather than focusing on their own youth system.
I hope Platini et al do something about this.

Yeah, Morgoth, I'd be okay with it if it were an Italian club-Italian club transfer. The respective primaveras transfer kids back and forth all the time. I think the data is even on the Lega Calcio site.

QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Jun 13 2008, 06:41 PM) I think it's only okay if the kid signs with the club that has bought him up as a player, it's the right thing to do really. That kid is just as bad as United. It's been a long time but we agree! (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Apparently these are the leaked fixtures for the opening weekend. Middlebrough v Tottenham Stoke v Chelsea Man United vs West Brom Liverpool vs Newcastle Sunderland vs Everton Hull vs Bolton Blackburn vs Wigan Portsmouth vs Man City Fulham vs West Ham Arsenal vs Villa Wouldn't surprise me if they're true becayse as usual Villa get a nice easy game, away to Arsenal, home to Liverpool and away to Arsenal in the last 3 seasons. Oh, and United get a nice head start, like usual. (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

QUOTE Man Utd's Ferguson forced to wind back transfer plans
Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is having to wind back his transfer plans this summer, it has been revealed.
The Sunday Mirror says the United boss was allowed to broker deals worth £50m to bring in Owen Hargreaves, Anderson and Nani last summer.
And 12 months on, most of the cash on those deals is now payable to Bayern Munich, Porto and Sporting Lisbon respectively.
United must also decide in the coming months whether to pay £25m to Media Sports Investments to secure Carlos Tevez on a permanent deal.
United banked more than £40m from their Double triumph, but the realities of the worldwide credit crunch are starting to bite.
The Glazer family, who own the club, have racked up debts which stood at £665m last year - with interest on those borrowings now running close to the £100m-a-year mark.
Ferguson is looking to raise cash to bolster his transfer funds. But there have been no takers for Louis Saha due to his dire injury record at Old Trafford, although Gerard Pique has been sold to Barcelona for £4.9m. Ahhh...how come we never mentioned Louis Saha? (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Now here's someone who can make Ronaldo look injury free.
