news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/world_cup_2006/teams/argentina/5008070.stmReading this article just made me think about the prospect of Riquelmé signing for United. I was filled with excitement at the thought of him joining up with the team and the effect he would have. Riquelmé alongside the likes of Rooney & Scholes would give Van Nistelrooy a field day in front of goal every single game. I am excited at the prospect of United signing him, and it's a very big possibility he will.

Be intresting to see what happens after the WC, I hope we do capture him. Lets be honest, England only beat the Argies 3-2 because he left the pitch lol.

I think Riquelme would be a fantastic signing. It could be :
Giggs Scholes Riquelme Ronaldo in midfield which would be great.

I worry that he'll flop like Veron. And for him to be as effective as he is for Argentina, the team needs to be built around him

A midfield of Ronaldo Riquelmé Scholes Giggs wouldn't work for me, not one player with defensive abilities in there for me, that is of course unless you want to play 4-1-4-1 which wouldn't work at OT.

riquelme is certainly an incredible player and I would be absolutely thrilled if we got him but do you think he would adjust to the style of the premiership?

Yeah I think he could fit the Premiership. In the second leg against Arsenal he had Gilberto and Fabregas man marking him but he still managed to hold them off and create plenty of space for himself and dictate the game.

Veron was a flop because he (in my opinion) never put in 100% on the pitch. He was JUST a playmaker. He would try and thread a ball through, and just admire it. Very rarely made a solid tackle. In England you can't do that. Riquelme is a work-horse from what i have seen of him. Very exciting !

I just got a feeling he will just turn out to be another Veron for United.
