Has Ronaldo cost Man United the loss of Berbatov ?

Question

Over the last few weeks all SAF's attention has been on retaining Ronaldo and in doing so little effort has been made in securing new players.

Should more attention have been made to purchase Berbatov ?

Answer 1

It's always difficult to conduct a transfer deal following a major tournament.  Prices seem to inflated as in the case of Berbatov. There could be a lot of haggling going in the background which could drag on an on until the clubs agree on a price.

I agree, the distraction on Ronaldo could have added to the Berbatov transfer saga. But all is still not loss. A week to go till the end of the transfer deadline.

Hope Fergie brings in the player(s) he promised.

Answer 2

I wouldn't worry much if I were you. By the time Ronaldo comes back, you will be out of the title race, so just sit back, relax and enjoy liverpool on the top.

Answer 3

Na i think Fergie says he wants berbatov and the board and agents will deal with Berbatov while Fergie is persuading ronaldo to stay, fergie cant do everything on his own he has people doing all sorts of things

Answer 4

there obviously a lot going off behind the scenes that we don't hear about,so i would say no it hasn't cost them.

Answer 5

SIR DAVE CR7 HAS INFLUENCE IN THE TEAM BUT NOT ENOUGH TO CANCEL OR MOVE ATTENTION FROM A GENIUNE STRIKER LIKE BERBA

Answer 6

Yup i think if ManU wanted Berbatov that should have happened. But other people are hired in the club to make transfers, not just he gaffer/coach and they should have also put their efford on getting Berba if they wanted him.

Ronaldo to me is a disgrace to the ManU shirt. How he will wear it proudly and with honour after he spent the whole summer wanting to rid himself of it is beyond me.

Answer 7

The Berbatov issue is dragging on thanks to Spurs, what makes you think if we've started the chase at the beginning of the transfer season, we'd have gotten him now??

@M4rky: short on what, I'm sure you don't mean short on cash, cus we've got plenty of that...

Answer 8

I know who i'd rather have

Answer 9

last season use thought use had the most depth....now use dont.

why buy players when they will be bench warmers like at madrid.

all use need is a striker and cover for vidic,evra and nani.

oh wait...use are a little shart eh :P

Answer 10

Perhaps it was a bit short sighted on his part.
