200k pounds per week - definitely Arsenal would not have matched that, and with all those midfielders who needs Cesc? This is the sort of player Moyes would never have been able to sign. LvG would have had a chance if we still had Cl football to offer.
I'm worried by the fact that Utd don't seem to be making any moves. Players will be VERY expensive after the WC and LvG should have provided his wish list for Ed Woodward to start trying to pull strings!!! I admire Liverpool coz the go about their biz very quietly and efficiently - they've already signed Lambert, Can and are waiting on Moreno and Lallana.
I remember when we bought Chicharito before SA 2010. Unless LvG wants to come with a host of young Dutch players, we may not get value for money after WC. Koke will definitely not come to Utd with Barca prowling and neither will Miranda. Best bet is Strootman and Roma will ask a hefty price and the player may still not be willing to join with lack of CL football. It's gonna be a looooong summer
