If utd get eto they will have possibly the best centre forward int he world (Top 3 definately)
Of course they can afford him.......he will pay for himself in merchadising alone....
forget all this about them not signing him because they wont sign players over 26....they just signed owen and he is older than that
if they offer 18-20m...barca will snap their hands off..........they are desperate to get rid
If eto is made aware of a bid by utd...he will go.....they can offer him everything he wants...champs league football and more wages than he is on now (maybe not as much as city were offering but still more than he is on at present)
we have managed to pave the way for his exist to which ever club now snaps him up.....we have made a mistake in pulling out of this bid IF he was actually interested in joining......which of course maybe he wasnt and was acutally all the time holding out for another club to come in for him
Bullshit.
Disagree. Think that we made exactly the right move here. We are building up a real positive momentum now. Thats the biggest thing. If he doesn,t want to come it wont help. Thing is i dont think we have heard the last of Eto just yet. Only my opinion tho

Doubt what? I don't even know what he means. How the hell have we paved the way for anything?

its called a reality check
people saying that its a step forward pulling out of a deal for possibly the best forward in the game when we still have around a month and a half of the transfer window left
all im saying is we should have waited...there is no reason why we couldnt have and still gone for other targets as well as eto.....
if utd (or any other club get eto'o...and barca clearly want to sell him and he wants to leave)....then we have missed out big time

Pam - I normally respect everyone on this board especially established members like yourself....however if you cannt at least post something that is in the way a counter to my arguement, instead of posting very immature petty comments like this or just one work answers like "bullshit", why even bother....after all, I thought the idea of a forum was to have discussion and debate.

He is nothing but a wanker, Svennis, is what you must mean.

Eto'o is a player we really could use, if we don't get him it will be a blow, there really is no getting around that. All that being said Eto'o won't end up at the rags, that just isn't going to happen, as was commented last week the rags no longer sit at the main table when it comes to transfers.

A few people need a few life and business lessons.
Nothing is ever 100% a deal is never dead, we walked away which was exactly what we needed to do.
If a better deal does not come for Barca or for eto,o they will be back and we may get better terms, we had to walk away no deal is ever left on a table indefinitely you have to have a deadline and walk away and then it is up to the other party.
There are a lot of very naïve posts here. We won't miss out on anything because of this move and sometimes walking away is the only way to make things happen, in business, in life and even in love.

yes but real arent going to go for him....and he wants out of barca....so if your talking the top clubs in the world right now...who is left.....? Utd, Chelski are two options...there arent many more (liverpool and arsenal cannt afford him) and the budesleague probably isnt very appealing to him.......either of the mIlan teams?....i doubt he would go there due to the fact that they are financially in trouble as well......so in reality there is only Utd and chelski left........or stay at barca

I thought it went without saying, mate, and anyway, I did elaborate. I asked you how we had paved the way for Eto to go elsewhere. You haven't answered.
