I signed Akinfeev in my Football Managers game, he would be a solid no1 and could easly take over from VDS but I think Fergie would look to Foster first before looking into signing another goalkeeper.
This is exactly the sort of *** that leads to endless, stupid transfer rumours on here. Football manager games are SIMULATIONS. I made myself as a character on there and I was awesome, scored like 32 in my first season from midfield. Why not sign me?
Base your future assessments on REAL performances.
By the way, you're all just assuming that we a) could and b) would sign him. There is no guarantee that he would either leave his team or would be wanted here. Ridiculous speculation once again, let's look at the squad we have. The real question you should be asking is; are either Foster or Kusczak capable of being our first team goalkeeper on a regular basis after spending so many seasons without regular top flight football?
