Why don't Man U target Alonso to replace Scholes ?
He'll probably be much cheaper than Modric and Sneijder, already PL proven...and his passing range is probably only matched by Scholes...much better passing range than both Wes and Modric. United and Real have done plenty of business with each other in the past and the relationship between clubs are fairly strong.
Will probably help them keep more than 33% possession when facing Barcelona next time...anyone think it's a likely scenario if Modric goes to Chelsea and Wes insists on ridiculous wages ?

Madrid wont sell and i doubt he will help them keep more then 33% possession if his performances in any of the clasico's are anything to go by.

he wont want to go united, and we wont let him go.
if he wants to move his best bet is to wait will his contract ends.

If he goes back to England it's to go back to Liverpool

Madrid wont sell, he is also too "old" in that he would only be a stopgap solution, in 2-3 years they will be left with the same problem...trying to replace an aging, declining centermid.

hahaha
There is no way Alonso goes to Manchester, too much of a Liverpool fanboy, and SAF knows some madrid players are untouchable.

Doesn't seem like a great idea. He is not young, expensive and plays for a team with more money than Manchester united.

Why don't Barcelona get Zanetti to replace Puyol?

Alonso is already nearing 30; wouldn't be a Smart invest considering price and years left. Aim for someone a few years younger.

massive lulz if you actually believe those 2 scenarios are comparable. But anything is possible on Internet
Plus about age, Alonso's game isn't dependent on age IMO. Other than 07-08 season, he hasn't had a long injury and he's always been one of the slowest players out there. Brain doesn't decline by age, pace does.

I was using the most extreme example I could think of. This is a ludicrous proposition. United would be shelling out $35m+ for a player who's going to give them 2-3 more years of top-level football at best. Madrid don't have any interest in selling him either O.o

Yea...Fergie definitely would laugh at the idea of upgrade on Carrick [though Carrick was rated more highly than Alonso in England among Sky commentators and non-LFC fans during his time in England, mind you]

We can get someone younger and equally as good as him in Modric. So no thanx.

Nahh, Alonso would never do that. He is true Liverpool fan. He would never join any other club in England.

You should have a look at him yourself. And why would the London media hype him...he isn't English.
