Thomas Heaton is refusing to renegotiate with us since we aren't playing him enough. I'll let him go after the season.

I change my mind on Neville. The fans like him, he wants to come back for one more year at 21,000/week which is what he makes now. I agree to that.

Grygera wants a 3 year deal at 89,000/week (1 thousand less than what he is making.) I agree to his request.

Saha wants 100,000/week and I agree to a 1 year extension at these terms.

Brown wants 3 years at 52,000/week. I agree to these terms.

Silvestre wants 74,000/week for 1 extra year. I agree to these terms.

Serhat's agent informs me his client wants to move clubs. I agree that I don't want him back.

Alan smith is willing to sign a 2 year deal for 83,000/week. I ask him to sign a 3 year deal instead.

Wow! Ruud van Nistelrooy's agent informs me that he "doesn't believe Manchester United have the resources to meet his client's demands. I see what he means, for some reason, the board will only allow me to pay this particular player 33,500/week! Mr. Quieroz believes van Nistelrooy isn't worth re-signing. The board shares that view. Ruud is currently making 120,000/week. Even if I tell the board that Ruud will be a first team player, they won't let me go above that. It looks like Ruud is going to either retire or move onto another club.

John O'Shea wants 3 years at 52,000/week. I agree to that and the board lets me. I guess they just feel Ruud is too old to be a contributor any longer after this season.

Chivu wants a 2 year deal worth 120,000/week. Mr. Queiroz believes he is a vital member of the team and suggests we give him up to 150,000. I agree to his request of 120,000 but ask him to sign a 3 year deal. I raise the signing bonus that he is requesting from 1.6 million to 2 million.

Marino actually wants to stay even though he knows that he will be a backup. He wants 31,000/week, but the board will only allow me to pay him 29,500. I offer him the 29,500 that the board will allow, but boost the signing bonus to 400,000.

Alfonso wants a 3 year deal at 19,000/week. I decide to offer him that if he agrees to a 4 year deal.
