Cardiff,Man Utd and Chelsea interested in Alberto Moreno

Thu Dec 05, 2013 2:36 pm

Cardiff, Man Utd and Chelsea are interested in Alberto Moreno who plays for Sevilla and Spain. He is a highly rated young left back who scores goals and is expected to cost around £20m despite a £25m buyout clause.

Don't make me laugh, do you think Tan will give Malky 20m for one player. Never on this earth!

Why is this funny? It's not the first article linking us to Alberto Moreno and we did buy Medel off cash strapped Sevilla.

Perhaps he's worth that, but with Sevilla being cash strapped you never know.

Before our recent exploits in the transfer market who would have believed we would have smashed our transfer record 3 times and spent £11m on a defensive midfielder and £8.5m on a central defender. Furthermore, Malky has always said that he will only buy players who improve our squad and as Andrew Taylor is currently in the top 30 EA Sports Ratings for defenders and about 6th for left backs, a player of Moreno's quality would be required as an improvement on Taylor. Malky also likes to keep a core squad of players and not make huge changes, so we have continuity and good team spirit. I think a winger or two, 1 central defender and 1 more striker will be all we will buy between the January and summer transfer windows, but I expect a few more records. The only other likely purchases will be for the future like Moore.

moore is 23 and nowhere near the first team.

And its because we spend 20 million on two defensive players that i cant see us spending that again on a left back.

If we have 20 million to spend then great! go and get a winger with it (aaron lennon) and even a striker and lets fly up the table! :ayatollah:

I did say Moore is for the future and Moreno is an attack minded left back who can also play on the left wing. His dribbling skills are rated as very strong. He has the potential to be a future Gareth Bale.

It's not as simple as 'let's get a winger' is it? He's got to have more qualities that malky likes for him to put a bid in for him. He's building from the back and working his way up, which I believe is the right way.
