Im just not sure what will be available after that!
Which is exactly my point, i dont think we have the money to sign him, imo it would blow our budget. we sold keano in january for £12m and bought no one, so you would hope that money is still there, plus whatever money they have given rafa for the summer, which if the storys are to believed, isnt a lot, rafa himself even said last week he has a budget to sign the one or two players he thinks we need which doesnt exactly point to the fact the coffers are full. i cant see him breaking the bank for tevez as we play one up front, and rafa isnt going to change his formation to accommodate tevez. add to the fact the three other english clubs he is apparently talking to can splash as much cash as they want, united have the ronaldo money plus fergies original transfer budget, abramovic bankrolls chelsea, and man city have the arab money, so all three of them could afford to pay a bigger transfer fee and offer him higher wages, so liverpool would be the last club he is talking to who he would sign for imo
