I've not been this excited about a signing since we signed Steve Hunt or possibly Mark Kinsella.
I don't rate Cleverley at all, and if we've paid £7-8m I'll be more than slightly pissed off. Hope I'm proved wrong
I'd prefer a bid for Townsend for that money
Changed my mind. I think this will be a good move. Reading about his career, it appears as though Fergie tried to mould him into a more defensive midfielder, when his strength is attacking and goals.
Did the lad not play in a team that won the league the season before last by 10 clear points

Utterly ridiculous if true. Lambert and the club owner have lost touch with reality.
If it's true (and I'd personally have wanted something a bit more solid than a tweet from a random journalist before taking it out of the transfer thread), then there is good and bad.Good - it's a bit of an upgrade on what we have there at the moment, it's very positive to know that we are still in a position to pay a fee like this.Bad - if we are paying a fee like this and given Lambert's pretty solid record when he's been given actual money to spend, surely he could be spending it better.
