If this happens, it will be one more reason on a long list of reasons to dislike Real Madrid.

Listening to TalkBalls this morning, lots of Man Utd fans have rung up - not a single Mancunian amongst them... and now they're interviewing Eamonn Holmes!

What's the concensus among the Utd fans then? Good riddance or gutted?

I'm not saying they sold him for the cash but how much of that cash will be available or should be available, for new players. As somebody else has said, why should they be allowed to win the league with the debt they are in.

Its all about how well they manage their debts, If for instance you were £10k more in debt than me does that mean that you cant do the same things as I can, even if you can manage it better than me?

BUt how do you get into £700,000,000 worth of debt and not even have to pay it back.
Surely the banks must be alerted, especially if they are owed £700million, they have £80million they can get just by this, yet they wont

Why is it allowed to happen? You get in debt, you have to pay back, SHIRLEY?

The Premier League will be poorer when he goes. If the Spanish keep doing this, the dominace of English clubs in Europe will be eroded. Oh well, I am sure there are many glad to see him go.

1. Why would he want to join Real Madrid? We're the biggest club in the world.

2. Wayne rooney will step up to the plate.

3. He won't be remembered as a United legend like Cantona, Keane, Best.

4. His diving and whining antics were a bit of an embarrassment all along!

correct me if i am wrong but United's debt is as a result of the take over by the Glazer family and will be repaid should the club be sold. Also 700 million if the club were in trouble could be paid off, Players being sold, Old Trafford being sold traning ground, assets etc. The club are Assett rich and Cash poor.

Real Madrid are responding to both the Premier League, and Barcelona this summer. Hardly a suprise.

Good deal for United. They can buy three or four world-class players, and will probably be a better team.

Just spoke to my mate who's a Utd fan, he's from down here but does go to games. He said he's not that well liked up there and thinks it's a good deal. From hearing what other fans have said on talksport over the last year I think most will be happy to take the money for him.

Like Tom has said, alot of their debt is tied up in Assets.

Like when you get your mortgage, you will be say £200k in debt, but your bank wont demand that they get all of your wages each month, just because its sitting in your bank account.

£700m debt for Man Utd is about the same as you or me being in £5k debt, its a lot of money but managable!

I quite like Ronaldo.

Like him or loathe him you cannot argue he is a quality player.

I will miss those free kicks however I am sure we will get our fair shares worth on Sky.
