The pot won't be limitless, so we need to pick up compromises in some areas I am sure. Getting a couple of very good keepers on the books for less than 5million or so combined would be helpful. We still need a right and left back, possibly 2 support forwards and a central midfielder, plus a centre half possibly.

Well the money from Young & Downing should be £35-40m and if Lerner chucks a few quid in as well we should have a decent enough pot.

Problem is most clubs know we need players.  They will treating us like we're the slightly poorer Man City.

True, at least we're not the only ones being ripped off.

Unless the new manager (Whoever he is) has told us he wants Gago, there's no way we should be approaching players without a manager. See Ireland.

How can we be agreeing a deal for Downing's departure with no manager, no caretaker and the chairman on holiday?

The press still need to fill column inches so will print anything.... I mean what are the chances in the real world of Giggs biffing his sister in law.

His agent has apparently set up the deal with Liverpool, I would guess that they will wait for the new man to come in and present the offer.
