Van Persie joins Man United

Comes from the top team in Chile mate. I was out there for a weekend earlier this year and they were raving about the brilliance of a few of their up and coming kids of which I assume he is one. Whether he develops into the complete article remains to be seen...

Thanks

Rumours are that he might be loaned to his club in Chile after a few months.

Very likely I think Agra.

great message that Ferguson is sending out to his other young strikers. Man City buying the league? Dont make me laugh as Ferguson has been buying success for 10 years now. Once Scholes and Giggs finish up United will have a team full of players that were bought from other clubs.

EVANS, CLEVERLEY AND WELLBECK ALL CAME THRO YOUTH TEAM AND WILL BE PLAYING FOR THE FORSEEABLE FUTURE. YOU ARE AWARE THAT IN THE LAST 5 YEARS YOU COULD ONLY SIGN A PLAYER, UNDER 16 YEARS OLD,WITHIN A 90 MINUTE RADIUS OF YOUR GROUND! THAT IS WHY SAF SIGNED YOUNG PLAYERS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES , IE THE DA SILVA TWINS, POGBA, NOW AT JUVENTUS AND PIQUE, NOW AT BARCELONA.

THE RULES HAVE NOW CHANGED WHERE YOU CAN SIGN KIDS, FROM THE AGE OF 12 YEAR OLDS NATIONALLY. CLUBS WHO SPEND ON YOUTH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES, LIKE MAN UNITED AND WEST HAM DID IN THE PAST , CAN NOW BENEFIT AND PRODUCE THEIR OWN ,AS OPPOSED TO YOUR CORRECT ASSESSMENT ,OF BUYING THE LEAGUE.

I get the point, but why you shouting?

Man U possible starting line up v Everton this Monday

De Gea bought
Silva bought
Evra bought
Ferdinand bought
Vidic bought
Valencia bought
Nani bought
Rooney bought
Van Piersie bought
Carrick bought
Scholes home grown

now dont tell us Man City bought the league

Yet another Arsenal player on his way out. Song going to Barcelona. Wow they have really become the laughing stock and selling stock of the Premier League.

CnC... "buying the league" is not just about the money, it is the time period in which that money is spent. I know it, you know it and the world knows it. There is plenty to criticise Man U for without talking this bolox, there is a huge difference between how Man U spend money and how the likes of Man C, PSG and Chelsea do. FACT. I have no problem with you being anti-Man U, but be anti-Man U talking at least a modicum of sense pleeeeeeeeeeease!!!! then there might just be a sensible thread where Man U are concerned for a change :)o

You are right.

I am arrogantly going to take that agreement as completely genuine without any hint of sarcasm etc <

seriously, I do agree. Whats the point as believe it or not its just a bladdy game after all.

you are right you/CITY did not buy the league but won it fairly on the pitch but only 2 players,Joe Hart and Micah Richards, from the squad of around 30 players were from the Youth Team, the REST WERE BOUGHT. All 18 players ,that were involved in the Community Shield , on Sunday were bought. It is a sad fact that the league we watch,adore and support have ,in the last 30 years, had only one WORLD FOOTBALLER OF THE YEAR, and that was MICHAEL OWEN. What can you expect when the CURRENT OWNERS, of all the TOP TEAMS, ARE FOREIGNERS where THE WIN AT ALL COSTS RULES.
