So is this the thread where we sign Fabregas?

ummm...Schweinsteiger, Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos
And De Rossi.
Tevez is a good start!
The 2 year loan works, as Tevez's past history shows that he is good for 18months - 2 years then goes off the boil or can get upset easily tbh. WEith that said hes a great player and does work for the team.
2 yrs loan?? something is fishy ... maybe they are waiting for Pato ....
Not for 24m it's not. Loan without obligation to buy, fine. Anything else is a waste of what little money we have. We're fine on strikers.
All the 2 year loan means is that we don't have to pay for him for 2 years. City will most likely demand obligation to buy after this 2 year period.
It is just like them doing us a favor not making us give them the money for a little while. I guess its a form of persuasion, but in the end it doesn't really make the deal better for us in the long run...
Of course it does. With Inflation, in 2 years, especially in Europe where they print Trillions of Euros to save the Banks will mean that the money it worth a lot les in 2 years.
Furthermore, we can SELL him within 2 years if we need to and never have to lay out cash. And, if we sell another player (Pato, Ibra, Robinho), we can use that money to eventually pay City. It's for sure better.

Yeah, I understand that it is better, but I'm just trying to explain to people that we aren't getting Tevez for free for 2 years and then be able to just let him leave.
If we don't want him we will still have to sell him, and the loan isn't FREE, we still have to pay his wages
thats true, bevause his value will depreciate by 2014 since he will be 29 and since we are probably obliged to pay full amount after two years, i.e. 25 mil, it doesnt benefit milan whatsoever.

Lopez and Tevez.
Berlusconi likes attackers. We know that. Now bring a midfielder and we have a deadly team.
