If Tevez isn't signed, you have one guy likely already settled(Hargreaves) and two guys Nani and Anderson that will surely not be settled their first year. You really don't even know if either will settle as the track record of S. American's succeeding in the EPL is not long. But who knows though I am of course speculating. Maybe Nani will be comfortable because cronaldo is there.

Of course there is risk. But "house of cards" suggests undue risk like, for example, going into next year relying on Giggs Scholes Saha to play 40 games of 90 minutes. I think the moves for Nani and Anderson at least will free those guys up for rest in relatively unimportant games while simultaneously developing a core for the future. Ignoring finances (why not? I don't have to pay the fees), it seems like a great set of moves for both the short and long term.

I think its a house of cards because of the amount of debt they have. It really is an astronomical amount and one bad season and they are fuuuuuuucked.

If Tevez to ManU is finalized what does that mean for Rossi's future at the club?

Tevez to ManU linky from Sky

Looks far from done if you ask me. Tevez' comments at the bottom of the article are very interesting.

I though Rossi was already gone, sold to team he's been on loan to.

it depends on if alan smith is sold. If smith isn't sold within the next 3-4 weeks, then Rossi will be gone by aug 30, if the smith/richardson double swoop happens between everton and us, then selling Rossi would be flat out dumb
