Alonso for Vidic - Tin hat on.
I was slaughtered for this suggestion in the real world so I thought I would allow the fredsters to add to my caining.
I thought rather that getting money from Madrid for Vidic we should swap for a proven premiership playmaker who I believe is not having the best of times at Madrid ( I wanted to do this in Jan ) This is also because i believe Vidic is being a #@&%! and sulking about leaving. As you were Fredsters |

Re: Alonso for Vidic - Tin hat on.
I don't see Alonso adding anything extra to our midfield mix tbh. If we are to strengthen that area of the team we should be looking at an attacking central midfielder who can create and score goals and possibly a left winger, if Nani can't transfer his form this month to that side.

Again, don't think he'd add much extra to our midfield and isn't what we actually need. |

Re: Alonso for Vidic - Tin hat on.
anyone who's been watching madrid this year can see alonso has made the difference there, he's not going anywhere.
i hop we do vidic for benzema, regardless of the reports he wanted madrid as opposed to united, but look at it another way, if he's already been to madrid, at least we won't have "the ronaldo's" every @#%&!ing summer again |

That said, he's been a bit shit for 3 seasons out of 4 - last season he was at his best, and although he might be better than Carrick, Carrick does something that amounts to about the same thing. Dictates the play from in front of the back four with metronomic passing... an in form Carrick might not be as glamarous as an in form Alonso or Pirlo, but he does what we need him to do & we've won 3 titles on the spin & got to back to back CL finals. We need a midfielder that can score goals & ideally either run with the ball or arrive late bang on cue... . A 25 year old Scholes would be ideal but it's asking a smidge much of course. Ozil, Hamsik, Diego () etc are all the kind of player I'd of liked us to look at - doesn't mean we should be shelling out the ludicrous fees asked in some cases whilst looking for this elusive 'value' but I think there are players that would improve us. |

Re: Alonso for Vidic - Tin hat on.
Alonso would offer absolutely nothing that Carrick, when in good form, doesn't already. If we're honest Alonso is probably the more consistent player but there are other areas that need improvement first - Attacking mid, arguably left wing, and a striker

Re: Alonso for Vidic - Tin hat on.
As good as Alonso is he isn't the type of midfielder we need. We missed a trick by not including Sneider in the deal for Ronaldo imo.
If were were to take a player of them, I'd go with Higuian if he was available, it looks like he is in their first team plans now though. |
