Gary Neville, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, RVN.....

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

Hmmm possibly. These all played for the top club in England though, so it's quite easy to be loyal then, and at least 2 of them weren't particularly loyal to their country. The only one I can think of in recent times who was loyal to their club, in spite of some massive offers, is Matt Le Tissier.

Carrick, Hargreaves, Rooney, Ronaldo ..............

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

So signing for United is considered disloyal?

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

Yes Russ :rolleyes: you know full well the point I am making

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

With Rooney and Ronaldo I think I can see what you're saying. Not sure about the first two though :confused:

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

Carrick and Hargreaves both demanded moves after their clubs said they weren't for sale, which I don't have to much of a problem with per se, what really annoys me is when they are kissing the club badge one moment and demanding a transfer the next

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

So they wanted to be transfered to a bigger and more successful club. Remind me again, this is connected to Ronaldo how? If a player shows ambition then you'd regard him as disloyal?

In any case, there's a quiet rumour going around that Ronnie's got no intentions of joining Real yet, but is pushing for an improved contract offer from United.

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

Are Man Utd more successful than Bayern? And Real are a lot more successful than United, hell even Liverpool are more successful than United, not that it matters, the fact is the players were under contract and despite the fact their clubs didn't want to sell them a certain other club wouldn't take no for an answer and re your loyalty point, presumably you'd have no problem with him going then if that's your attitude

Looks like Barca have made a move for Arshavin

A fair few premiership defenders can rest a bit easier tonight ;)

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor is closing in on a switch to Milan, according to the Togo international's agent.


Wow.

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

Wow, some actual transfer rumours :eek: ;)

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

I bet there are plenty of Utd fans hoping Ronaldo would follow Adebayor's example below:

He's cut out all speculation by releasing a clear cut statement. Good on him.

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

Oh really!

Now! You were saying?

Re: Close Season Transfer Rumour Mill
 

Well I stand corrected. I hadn't read anyything to the contrary when I made my original post. In that case if its true that he was still umming and aaahing an hour later then he is as much of a numpty as ronaldo regarding fueling speculation.
