Who Should We Get To Replace Ronaldo?
By: Wayne Farry | June 11th, 2009
He’s going, no doubt about that. In some cases, players struggle to agree personal terms with a club after a fee is agreed but don’t expect that to happen here. He’s dying to go to Madrid and they’re dying to have him, a match made in crude, over-exposed heaven.
So, in theory, we have £80M/€93M to play with. And hopefully we have it all to spend, if the Glazers have a bit of sense they’ll reinvest the money back into the transfer market, if not, they’ll face the wrath of us, the fans.
So who do we buy to replace the guy? We’ll have to replace him with more than one player. Not because we can, with the money but because Ronaldo, although jus one man, was far more than just one player. The guy had the attributes of a world class striker/winger and attacking midfielder. If we want to properly replace we need to buy at least two world class players; a winger and a striker.
We’ve been linked with everyone from Ribery to Benzema to Antonio Valencia even before this offer was accepted. Ribery will be expensive and so will Benzema but Valencia could be bought for under £20M.
So who do you think we should buy to replace a man who, in terms of what he delivers on the pitch, cannot be replaced by one player? Leave all your comments below.
