United just couldn't afford him.
They may even have a first option, but couldn't even get close to a transfer fee, never mind a commitment to best part of £300k a week for next four-five years.
It's a £150m-plus investment.
No sell on value, either.
He either stays at Madrid (most likely) or will come to us.
I'd throw in Adebayor and Tevez, get the price down to £50m.
Suppose United could throw in Cleverley and Evans, get the price down to £90m!
