JEREMY I COULDNT AGREE WITH YOU MORE...LETS PLEAD TO SAF NOT TO SELL SEBA VERON!
-----Original Message----- From: Jeremy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 30, 2003 10:41 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Mufc] Veron set to join Chelsea Again, as this story is now being reported in more reputable journals, it seems that we may be indeed be losing Seba. I'm not trying to be a naysayer or a moaner, but it's more than just a bit distrubing that we, Manchester United, one of the top clubs in the world, are selling off more than we are buying, from a quality standpoint. Not only that, but to reiterate a point that's been made well and often, we are getting screwed in negotiations. I'm happy we didn't' get Ronaldinho, as he didn't' really seem into playing for the shirt (see Neville, G & N, Forlan, D). Beckham leaving was sad, but I felt other than set pieces and corners, he was fairly replaceable. Veron, on the other hand, is a highly-skilled player, one we seem to have few of. You know, the sorts of players that have silky smooth skills and can make amazing things happen. Giggs is one, Kan Kan was one and I felt that out of Becks' shadow, Veron was ready to blossom this year. We have D-D on his way in, and possibly Kleberson, as well, but am I wrong in believing both of these players are more in the Butt/Keano mold than a playmaker? I just don't see a creative force in midfield at this time and wonder what Fergie has in mind. I know he's been brilliant in the past and I hope he will turn water into wine yet again, but this Veron sale, if it goes through, is just a move that doesn't make any sense to me, ESPECIALLY when Seba is being sold to a domestic rival. Here's to hoping I'm being Chicken Little.

The Argentine's performance for United against Club America on Sunday might not be his last for the club because doubts over the fitness of Paul Scholes and Roy Keane may force Sir Alex Ferguson to play him against Juventus here tomorrow. Veron, 28, had originally opposed the move but is understood to have been persuaded into joining Chelsea after Ferguson made it clear that the midfielder was no longer part of his long-term plans. The deal could earn United around half the �28.1 million they paid to Lazio for the midfielder two years ago. Veron is expected to negotiate a salary of around �80,000 a week. Yahoo!
