Azeem Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 Reading about Ronaldinho's almost move to Manchester United. Think it would've been a great move. What are some other great deals that were missed out...
Cicero Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 Arsenal and apparently every great player in existence.
Administrator Stan Posted September 7, 2020 Administrator Posted September 7, 2020 Brian beat me to it. Whether he'd have become the great player he is now via Blackburn is never to be known but it definitely worked out alright for Lewandowski himself not going there! Leicester nearly signed an ageing Johan Cruyff as well in the 80s.
Mpache Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 One that I would have loved to see is Juan Manuel Vargas to Real Madrid or Juve. There was apparently truth to those rumours. I’m not going to say he was quite at that standard but there definitely was something to that transfer saga. I really find him underrated in his own country. Some people forget what a stallion he was on the flank.

He could have fit in at Juve, especially back then when they weren't quite as established. He was also a better wing back than winger.
Administrator Batard Posted September 7, 2020 Administrator Posted September 7, 2020 Diego Maradona to Sunderland. My word. Imagine how differently the 1986 World Cup would have been.
Rucksackfranzose Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 Saarbrücken and Platini. No joke, Platini was already in Saarbrücken in 1976, but our former manager Krafft deemed him not good enough for the Bundesliga.
Honey Honey Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 Real Ronaldo was going to come to Newcastle on loan in the early 2000's. After he had that long injury spell. Bobby Robson was going to fix him. Apparently it was practically all agreed and then someone got injured at Inter and Ronaldo stayed. Imagine Shearer and Ronaldo upfront together
Smiley Culture Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 Messi to City. Horrible oil bastards they may be, seeing him make mincemeat out Premier League centre halves would have been a joy.
Cicero Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 We had enough money to bring Ronaldinho in 2004 but Mourinho wanted Drogba.
Mpache Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 James Rodriguez to Total Clean. It's a totally out of context transfer rumour that's still clinging about on the net.
