It's so funny ... In a rich man's world ...money money money!!!
Watching where I'd be at this point, if in some bad for me, the club where I was not comfortable, then yes, I would have done it, and if the club where I was happy with everything, I really like situation at this club and the club, who in addition will participate in the Champions League, then nowhere I would not go.I know a said things too but think about it.
PSV set a price for him about 14 million euros...which club would pay that amount for him? Even Affelay was sold for 2-3 million euros to Barca!!!
PSV made a great deal, this is business. And ofcourse Balázs didnt want to stay in a club that cant make it to the CL. So what would you do if you were in his shoes and if only 1 or 2 rich noname club wanted to buy you?
I hope so.In less than five years the Russian league will be the best league in the world and Russian clubs will win the CL.
Phil Jones: Blackburn Rovers -> Manchester United

16 000 000 pounds. I think United pay too much for him, but I'm glad to see him in United.

it was record deal for Blackburn.. i guess it was maybe more than that? not sure what´s their most expensive sell before...
It was actually 'potentially a club record'. Their biggest sale was Santa Cruz to City, for £18m.
So our price must have been less than £18m, but with the potential to rise above it.
Or they're saving face, after their rather pathetic demonstration of comprehension of a release clause.
Either way, the real price will be seen in United's financial statements in a few months.
but they have written it´s club record deal on thier official website.. i guess you spended more than 18 milions for him then..
@MattOlivier please add official link..
Maybe becouse he was about to sign with us, untill you came unexpected and bid higher?
I am sure United scouted the player enough and splashed 18 mill not just to stop him from moving to Liverpool.
Anyway, these prices are insane. Soon no average player will be valued under 10 mill.
Blackburn accept United offer because Jones said that the only club he would want to join is United.
Liverpool also offer about 16 000 000 pounds but Blackburn rejects the offer.
so what mate, maybe whole Premier league was scouting him..and then United came, splash insane money for Blackburn and mostly for the wages of this kid.. we almost signed him, but the money decieded this...not his will...common, it´s all about the money in football. Logically he would not have that space at united to get the time as he would have at Liverpool who need a CB.. so the football issues are second in this move, that´s my opinion..you don´t have to agree.
I thought United were the first bidders, then Liverpool came in and bid higher which created the whole mess that happened with Venky's, but in the end United still managed to get him.Maybe becouse he was about to sign with us, untill you came unexpected and bid higher?
