Matt Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 If we let Baines go, Pienaar becomes 15/20 % less effective. If we start next season with Baines and Pienaar and a regular goalscorer, then I'd say we have a good chance of Europe. How can you calculate something like that?! After reading the mirror quotes today, Im nervous about him leaving... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 They seem like nice guys (in fact I met one of them years and years ago) but I don't really trust anything on Bluekipper. I've not been on that site for about 4-5 years for that exact reason and I'm not going to cry over Baines just yet. I'm in fact cheered up at the fact that Distin has come out to our defence as opposed to just keeping quiet, I believe that we can keep hold of Baines and I'm sure we will start next season with a Baines/Pienaar partnership.

Matt Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 UK_TransferNews @UK_TransferNews 20m Leighton Baines has signed a 4 year deal with Manchester United for £18 million. #MUFC #EFC Hope this is bollocks......

Matt Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 don't get too upset all it takes is one person exactly. I think its BS - none of the BBC/SSN/newspaper outlets have commented anything, nor Forth Official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Plus, as much as it'll hurt, we'll survive and i'll trust Moyes to buy a decent replacement. Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Yeah true. No-one of any stature said anything yet. Although for £18m... £18 million is massive for 28 year old defender, don't see how anyone can be upset about the price. Will be sad to see Baines go, but it could give him the opportunity to challenge for major trophies, and us to rebuild and reshape to eventually do the same, win-win.

SimonButtle Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 I do worry what will happen with Pienaar if hes not working with Baines behind him.... i don't see the point in signing Pienaar without Baines, it was their partnership that was so crucial. scouse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 If the Pienaar deal is done soon I could see Baines staying for another year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scouse Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Pienaar is a great player that I see playing in a more central role behind Jelli next season, even if he is on the left I wouldn't say don't sign him if Bainess goes as he is quality who ever he plays with.

Romey 1878 Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 I can see Baines being a big disappointment at United if he went there you know. At United he'd have Young as his left-sided partner and he'd offer Baines no protection whatsoever to get forward so he'd be half the player he's been for us. Much like when he plays for England.

Romey 1878 Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 partly true but i don't feel he'd have as much defending to do If they don't make some real quality additions then they'll have a lot of defending to do, just like they did last season.

marcopaulo Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 true but i think he'd excel going forward there..and they don't defend as much as us and i think that would be enough to make him a success...i'd like him to be for himself if he was to leave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 We'll see, if it happens at all. I'd like him to be a success for them too, because he's been brilliant for us, but I really think he'd struggle to make an impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scouse Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 I would like him to be a success for us and nobody else! If he goes to Utd he will be a success, I see where u are coming from Mark but Utd play a more flowing style and he would get forward allot sadly. I hope neither of us are proven right and he stays with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 I saw very little flow for United last season, and for a couple of seasons before that tbh. My point was that Baines is a poor defender in all honesty and needs someone in front of him that will give him the freedom to go forward. He won't get that at United and we've seen how he looks for England when that's the case (in all honesty he's looked a nothing player for England).

Hafnia Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 Before even considering selling him, I would want a top replacement sourced. The lad at Celtic for example. Make a profit of £10m on his replacement and maybe I would be ok. But he is £17m for me. So yeah, throw £7m at izaguirre and pocket the £10m for Cardozo maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
