		<description>Benzema is signing for Real Madrid.

How can Fergie or the board get Ronnies departure so wrong!

Ronaldo&#039;s departure was agreed 1 year ago! United have had 1 whole year to scout, Pick who they want and tie them to contracts!

What has happened?..... Erm, They created a circus with Tevez, will he wont he, will we offer will we not! Then we do but by then its too late!... Anyway i dont care about Tevez going!! Anyhow i do flipping care that we have no replacement earmarked as yet for ronaldo!

I am looking at the market and i dont know of too many players id like to see at united to make an improvement, erm benzema was a cert for me as he had everything! Do we want ribery at 26 or 28.. erm. dont know if bayern will let him go.

Anyone got any suggestions?</description>

		<description>Legend? Yes! The games, he pulled out of the depths ... or broke the deadlock in alone, assure him that status. We can&#039;t thank him enough as he has presented us with the opportunity to win trophy after trophy for the past few seasons ... 

but ...

we have, cleverly, and yet again, sold a player after their peak. Is he going to score 42 goals next season in Spain for example? Are Real Madrid going to go one further than us in the Champions League (because they have him and we don&#039;t) ?

Sincerely doubt it.

I think the answer in how we will be affected comes in the fact that this long drawn out saga is over. It is a simple case of one man thinking he&#039;s bigger than his company. No one would stand for that at work ... so why should we? Get him out and bring someone in without the flapping arms, staged emotional faces, the blaming of teammates for his own mistakes, the ego, the petulance, the soap opera with the press. We&#039;re better off from here on in. 

Period.</description>

		<description>The BBC reported that the £80m was &#039;paid in full.&#039; Has anyone confirmed that? If so, that&#039;s a huge reason to do the deal, no reason to worry about Real &#039;forgetting&#039; to pay the installments later!</description>
