The news about Hazard and Chelsea I feel has substance and he possibly used Manchester as a smokescreen for the deal.. Chelsea European champions, he would get first time football and high wages! Bad news for us :(

Man Utd will wrap up the signing of Shinji Kagawa in the next week or so. TBH i think he'd be a good signing for us.
On the hazard situation, we will find out on sunday night or monday night at the latest. Would love to see him at United, but personally think he will go to city. (I wonder why?).

So here is the Hazard latest... He was apparently at Old Trafford yesterday (don't buy it) and next week LOSC Lille will hold talks with both Man Utd and Man City about a possible transfer fee. It is reported that both teams only feel they should be spending around £25 million pounds on him. I think both clubs will agree a fee for the player but it all depends on the player... I hear he wants guaranteed first team football and this is why he was more favoured to be going to Tottenham Hotspurs, but since he has said he is coming to Manchester I think it will be the Red of Manchester he will be wearing. This " I will be wearing blue" quote is bullsh*t he didnt say it and it was the press twisting his words (as I have seen the actual interview). He gets double his originial Nike wage when he plays for a team sponsored by Nike and this is how we will manage to compete with City.

There has been talk that Juventus are offering part ownership of Marrone and will pass on their part ownership of Immobile as part of the deal. Milan, Arsenal, Napoli, PSG, Manchester City, Nice, PSG and Manchester United are known to have enquired after the player as well.}

Take this how you will, but it does look like we are going for cheaper, 'powerful' players in the middle of the park. According to the press a bid was rejected for Kwadwo Asamoah and also we backed out of a deal for Wigan's Diame as he has a heart problem. Strootman is also being closely monitored by all reports. Sami Khedira has been watched several times this seasn. Possibly Steven N'Zonzi might be a name that pops up in the future.
Out of all the realistic options, i hope that Strootman comes in, he really is a classy player.

Juventus are expected to officially announce the capture of Paul Pogba from Manchester United on Monday.
The 19-year-old midfielder’s contract expires in June and Sir Alex Ferguson urged him to stay at Old Trafford.
However, it is widely reported that Juve have convinced Pogba to try Serie A and will present him to the media after the Coppa Italia Final.
“As things stand now it is more likely that he goes away from Manchester,” revealed agent Mino Raiola this week.
It’s believed Manchester United will receive only £300,000 compensation for the French talent.

There's a couple of team posts up here today and the past few days actually where people have suggested we buy Hazard, and then have left Nani out of their squads. So am I to presume that the general idea is that Hazard comes in and we sell Nani?
I would keep them both.. why bother selling one. Nani is brilliant.

Hazard ain't stupid, he's only saying heel be playing in Manchester so united make an offer and then city just double it.

Eds, has there been any further rumours around Iker Muniain? I read somewhere on here a while back that Bilbao wanted over the top money for him. Hopefully they would be willing to lower their asking prixe. He looked a real class act in the Europa League, can't say I saw him in La Liga though.
Hallis {Ed002's Note - Muniain was touted around the clubs on behalf of Bilbao in January - and the two clubs in England that were approached were Chelsea and Manchester United. The asking price was 40M euros. They won't get it because I don't think clubs would risk half of that on a player who is young and has had some off field issues. If the price comes down to a reasonable level I can see interest from several English clubs including Manchester United and Liverpool. Roma interest is still there and rumours abound of Juventus and Malaga interest but perhaps an eventual move to Barcelona beckons.}

19 May 2012 13:57:19
I know a lot of people here are desperate to sign Hazard, but I just hope we wrap up the Kagawa deal. I think this guy will improve so much in England, and if we lose out on him it will be a big mistake. I also think he is closer to what we need - a tricky goal scoring CAM, whereas Hazard is more of a direct winger. I think Kagawa is the type of shrewd business that for example Newcastle have been doing of late eg Cabaye, Tiote, Ben Arfa. Getting quality players who slip under the radar because of their smaller price tags.

Lille midfielder Eden Hazard may choose to move to Manchester United rather than to cross-town rivals Manchester City. That’s according to one newspaper report which claims the 21-year-old Belgium international is worried about a possible lack of first-team opportunities at City.
We reported yesterday that Lille will open talks with both Manchester clubs this week over a move for Hazard which could cost either of them as much as £32million. Lille are looking for 40million euro for their star turn although United – as well as City – are looking to shell out a maximum of £25million.
Earlier this month Hazard told a French TV programme that he was likely to “play in blue” next season, but the Mail claims he is now having second thoughts and could start next season playing in red.

The Way I see it, Owen has gone & released the No 7 Shirt for a true legend with experience. Do not be surprised to see either Raul or more likely Del Piero, both can come off the bench & change a game even at their age. Both Free i think & Both chased by Fergie for years. We will sign 3 or 4 younger players too, including a marquee signing but one of them 2 will be brought in to help the younger exciting players I think. Not a rumour & my own personal opinion after hearing Del Piero would love to give the Premiership a go before he retires. His last game for Juve this weekend. And before you all say it, i'm not living in the past, but I see Del Piero, especially, still has it, even if it's just the last 20 mins chasing a game, he unlocks doors & there is an outcry in Italy that he's not going to the Euros, cos he is still so good. Just a thought. MAD DOG

Money to one side for this one, people say all the top talents will sign for City because they won the league, maybe so, but a lot of them joined for the so called 'project'. Which leads me to think that if we're after the top starlets who I feel we can afford, then we'll have a plan for the short term to reign in Europe once again and in the long term add players as and when needed.

Didnt Hazard say he would reveal on monday where he was going. I take it as a guess the french league finishes over this weekend. He has confirmed he will play in manchester, so i see it as a straight 50/50 swop, both clubs have reason for him joining either. i dont think it will be another sniejder as he kept quiet and never once said he would play in manchester and the silence created more and more rumours.
I personally think that he will sign for us, but thats my own opinion. I know SAF has been scouting him for 3-4 years. maybe he is the player no value in the market, not been available. Everyone assumes he was at the derby as city's guest, but no1 for sure knows that. When city are chasing a player people know about it, there business is not done quietly. Our business is usually kept quiet and announced surprisingly. As the majority of our signings will be surprised at this buy, there is a gut feeling he is coming to us.

But if we had got nasri would we of got young , as much as you think you do, you can't know this .
And how do you know we would of bought jones and varane the answer is you don't .

Just my opinion but I think City will sign Hazard. This is the first real public transfer battle between the two clubs, and I'm sure City will pay whatever they need to to save face! I know we were probably in for Nasri and maybe Silva but I can never remember Fergie and Gill both publicly speaking so much about transfers when trying to get a deal sorted.

"Do supporters know our cash balance is down by 87m according to today's financial figures. All gone on buying back bonds (Glazer debt). That means from last years 113m cash in the bank, we have only 26m in cash. And that means we have very little to spend on players."
------------------------------------------------
Actually, £55m of it went on transfers. Some went on buying property and land around the ground. Also there was £26m in the cash reserves from March, but there will be closer to £75m in the bank now. We may have lost cash due to exiting the cups early, but overall we are still £15m better off than last year.

If it is euros then that is just over £35 million, about what people on here where thinking.

Eds, with all these romours saying we have signed hazard, I know its all probably lies but perhaps could talks with city mabye have broken down?
P.s how would hazard and kagawa fit in the same team? {Ed007's Note - Has there been talks with City?}
18 May 2012 10:22:05
People need to try and remember the football fair play rules. City can no longer go out and spend 300 million on players as the money needs to be coming into the club. The only way they got round it last year was by selling the naming rights to the s**tihad.
That said they will still go out and spend but they won't buy everyone, United have one of the biggest turnovers in world football therefore we can still spend big we just won't be held to ransom.
Personally I'd like to see SAF move to a 4231 and buy Kagawa, Martinez or tiote and Baines. I don't think hazard will come, seems to big of an ego already and that'll be detrimental to what fergie is trying to build.

This is why people think Hazard will sign...
“@chrishallitv: Can't stand this up yet but had a tip off that Eden Hazard will join Man Utd tomorrow for £45m. Must warn you, this could be a hoax. #mufc"
He works in ITV, but as he said it could be a hoax, so don't look into it too hard!
I have heard nothing about hazard joining us from my sources, and I think he will most likely go to city. Would love it if we did get him though!

Hazard has posted a pic on his FB page with him in a red sports top sponsored by Nike. Lille and MCFC are not Nike sponsored but we are, maybe it's something to do with that. Also an ITV sports reporter says he has had a tip off that he will sign for 45 mill. Not saying it's true but I thinks this is fueling the rumours

"Can't stand this up yet but had a tip off that Eden Hazard will join Man Utd tomorrow for £45m. Must warn you, this could be a hoax. #mufc"

I work in the Warwick suite at Old Trafford and all the talk of Shinji Kagawa meeting Sir Alex is very true. The player is happy to join United but as per usual Man Utd are stalling on the deal...
This is due to the fact that the manager, Gill, and The Glazer family are working like mad to sign Eden Hazard as quickly as possible. The player has said he would love to play for United.
The signing will be made in an attempt to lift the fans and to prove to the world of football that United can fight Manchester City for major players..

The situation with Kagawa, however, is different. Dortmund confirmed recently that he will leave the club this summer, although at the moment his destination is unknown. Ferguson sees the Japanese player as the ideal back-up for Paul Scholes, who renewed his contract for another year yesterday. One player who will be playing for the Red Devils next year is the Belgian, Eden Hazard, after announcing that he will sign for the club last night. {Ed004's Note - Link to this announcement because of this were the case I can garuntee it would have been all over the site today}

Read all the posts with interest. 1st, we will spend somewhere between £48m and £91.5m this window subject to the right players agreeing to come. We are actively looking to ship out upto six players, The upper figure depends on gaining £48m minimum back in fees, with Nani going for a minimum of £23m with the remaining balance available due to lower wages of incoming players where a net yearly saving of between 37.3 and £9.7m is projected.
Utd are prepared to go no more than £65k per week on Hazard with add ons for goals scored above 10 goals and bonuses for winning trophies so it comes down to whether he is truly committed to regular first team football and if his agent is truly interested in his career or short term commission.
Also, a post first season review with retrospective bonus payment to make up the difference between first and second years wages is on offer to counteract this threat.
Gaitan and Kagawa are committed though Gaitan will have to wait to see if we get Hazard first, we wont take both. Hubbels is a higher priority than Lebanowski,as we are also trying to drive down Martinez's price to under £30m and will offer £22m to test the market although we may make a further move in January.
The main reason for keeping these figures in check are simple. We will float on the Singapore stock market in a few months, raising enough money to completely wipe out the debt (after we pay down a further £70m this season) leaving net debt around £350m. We will then splash out on development plans for old trafford to take the stadium to 96,000 and leave a transfer kitty and wage structure enabling us to compete on world level to compete head to head with City given our revenues from the new TV deal, chirt sponsor and corporate boxes will increase our revenues by a further £70m per year by 2013, and give us a profit of over £180m per annum. That, for those who understand the financial fair play rules, means we will be able to outspend our so called super rich neighbours by a ratio of 5 to 1, as despite their stadium sposnorships and daft shirt deals, still give them nowehere near the profit required to sustain the current investment in wages alone, never mind transfer fees. City wage bill this season? £168m, city turnover? £151m, net loss of £17m. They will have to increase turnover beyond those figures dramatically, or cut players and wages, whilst we remain one of the most successful sports businesses in the world.
If you doubt the difference between financ and football rules, just look at chelsea, who dont mind posting big losses on manager compensation, because on the books hey get leeway to buy the odd big player or two every now and again. Result? Chaos, short term gain, burnout of the key team assets (Lampard, Terry, Essien, Drogba) and whilst you can afford to replace them, you cant spend the money because it will breach FFP rules.
Result? You have some fond memories of the odd trophy and struggle to reach a European place in the league.
Ferguson is cute as we all know, why do you think he claimed we will compete for a decade with City? In the very near future they will succeed, but its a fast burning candle and Fergie knows that by 2014, City will be in sharpo decline, just as Chelsea have for the last couple of years! Watch this space.
C'mon you Reds!

Apparently we've spoken to RVP reps and the talks went well, he also spoke to City but they apparently broke down. Now, think about this, he's currently the best forward in the world..so the chances are every ambitious club in the world has spoken to him, Russia, Italy, France, Holland, England, Spain, Germany, USA, Dubai, etc. Clubs from all of these countries would have likely contacted both Arsenal and his agent to discuss availability.
Secondly, as good as I think he is, it's been his first Injury free year, what if he goes back to his usual ways, we pay £25 Million for him and see him 5 times in a year? what a waste that would be.
Personally I would much prefer us to spend £15 Million on a new forward and then use the remaining £10 Million to invest in another box2box midfielder (regardless of Pogba) or possibly someone for the defense, preferably LB.
We all know he's talented but with the clubs looking at RVP and the potential risks of Injury is he worth it?

i just think that for the wages and fee it would cost to get him, signing van persie would be a massive gamble and therefore i do not see it happening, personally i think united interest is for citys benefit, keeping them from our real targets
i expect many to disagree but i feel rvp is not worth it in the long run

I think we could be looking at a very interesting summer this year.
Kagawa, both himself and his agent, have confirmed talks with United and Sir Alex.
Hazard blowing his own whistle, saying he will definately be playing in Manchester next season.
And now with Owen gone, Berbatov and Macheda likely to leave it is looking ever more likely we will be bringing in a Striker too.
Plus Fabio likely to go on loan, we will have only Evra. Fryers and Blackett are promising but Fryers needs to sign up and Blackett i dont think is ready for the first team picture just yet. We will need a full-back also i feel.
I still think we need a Midfielder who has strength and can tackle though, especially if we were to play Kagawa in a central role rather than in the hole.
I'm expecting a busy transfer period, for us definately.
With the press and most of the talk on here mainly directed at the possible deals for Kagawa, Hazard, Lewandoski and RVP:
I want to know who do you guys think will be brought in for full-back?
I cant see it being Nathaniel Clyne, although he can play both R+L, as we have enough young talented fullbacks coming through at the minute.
I think Cissokho could well be looked at, as could Debuchy(?) with perhaps Rafael covering at LB sometimes?
Who knows, anybody heard anything on this front? Except that Clyne is supposedly a "done deal" which i'm not buying into.

Fergie will not want to unbalance the squad in the summer, he should sign Martinez(CM), Modric(Link player in midfield) and sign Kagawa as a replacement for Berba and Owen. remember pogba hasnt left(yet) we have Cleverley, Anderson(if he can stay fit) and Vidic to return - these will be like new signings

Borussia Dortmund are moving for Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner.
Dortmund tried to sign Bendtner last summer before he moved to Sunderland on-loan and they remain keen after landing their second successive Bundesliga title, says the Daily Mail.
Bendtner would cost around £2.5million and is on wages of £60,000 a week that can rise to £90,000 depending on bonuses.
The Dane could arrive as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski, whose agent confirmed the interest of Manchester United this week.

Hi all, just a quick post regarding transfers this season.
Firstly, we are not going to rebuild a new team this season. We have a great core of youth and middle aged players, such as Jones, De Gea, Nani, Rooney, Smalling, Cleverley and Co. However, we will bring in 3 new players to try and push City of their perch next year - although as some people seem to be forgetting we were mighty close this year!
We will sign a CM, a striker (due to loss of Owen and Berbatov) and possibly one other showcase signing.
These will be:- Kagawa (c.10m), Higuain (22.5m) and - extremely unlikely but still a chance - Hazard (34m).
Team for next season:
De Gea
Rafael Jones Vidic Evra
Carrick
Young Kagawa Hazard (if not,Nani)
Rooney Higuain
Really confident with this team - you heard it hear first! All signings to be confirmed in July after the euros, apart from Hazard - who will be a contracted affair over the whole summer.

2 strikers probably leaving means we are definitely in the market for a first team striker. or 2 attacking mids..
makes the entire lewandowski/ rvp rumours more believable now..or the possibility of both kagawa and hazard joining.

Hey Ed, is it true that United were in for Diame from Wigan before we became aware of his heart condition? {Ed004's Note - Apparently so, not sure}
17 May 2012 10:17:06
Does anyone else think Higuain could be a realistic signing for us this summer? He is a proven goal scorer, left out of more games than he would like at Madrid and he is still fairly young.
Could be worth an 18-20mil bid?

Park,Owen,berbatov,Evans,anderson,,macheda,bebe,
Kushak.
If an offer came in for carrick aswel I'd sell him.but can't see any other team who would want that clown.
Rio,Giggs n scholes should really be gone,but the only reason they would stay is because with they're experience they can help the younger ones.

to add to what i said on diame last night. Firstly its being reported in the mail after the rumour went around last night. I know the mail isn't the most reliable but it does add up. We do need a player like him and on a bosman makes sense, although wouldn't be my first choice. Apparently he has an existing heart condition and wigan keep a defibulater on the touchline during games just in case. This is why we've pulled out. Thats whats being reported just passing on the news. If correct does show we are looking at that type of player. If wrong well he's now being linked to liverpool which is odd without a manager. Mort

I see although there is nothing concrete in it recent rumours of Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa from Montpellier being linekd with us and other premiership clubs (probably as he has stated he wants to play in the premiership and also professed a liking to us which is good to hear). Reading a profile on him he can play anywhere in the back four or as a defensive midfielder though has been playing centre back most recently. Anybody seen much of him as watched a couple of youtube vids (yes I know its only youtube), but from what I did see he did seem a big strong and very composed player on the ball with good pace. Anybody much knowledge on him?

I think our first signing of the summer should be Steve Clark, who has left Liverpool following the sacking of Dogleash. Clark was a very good No.2 at Chelsea and must surely be a better bet than our current No.2?

Anyone think that Fergie might be interested in Steve Clarke as his number 2 now that he's a free agent?
I think we need a new no.2 and they could communicate with each-other in Scots code so I think it might work.

so we will not sign any striker
if hazard join city(which i dn't think) then gaitan will be bought...
we will try for eriksen or modric.....
we may also sign one or two youngstars likes of isco , vadillo , tito
then that will be it

I have had info from my sources that the RVP to United story has legs and is not just a rumour. His people have spoken to City United and Juve. The City talks did not go well for what reason i don't know but the United talks went well. It is now down to Arsenal. i think this suits the Glazer/Gill/Fergie camp as they are linked with a truly world class player and it suits RVP as it forces Arsenal to make a realistic offer. i am hoping that this is the big surprise signing of the summer. i hope Fergie was feeling like we were on Monday morning and realised we need to spend some serious cash on quality players not band aid ones. Paul Scholes you are the Ginger prince and the best two touch footballer of your generation, but realistically have you got another season in you. No and it will become more and more evident as players just run past you. Ryan Giggs you are United's greatest ever player but do any of us want to see you in the midfield just chipping balls over the top all the time and then disappearing for most of the game. No we want to remember you as you were in all your glory. We need some legs in the midfield. And if I were Fergie the one thing I would be looking for was a leader to put on the pitch. We have no obvious captain to get hold of the team and drag them over the line. Would Everton have come back with Robson, Bruce or Keane on the pitch. Never Roy would have held them out on his own. We need a leader. Don't any of you dare mention Rooney. He is an Everton fan who plays for us because of his bank account and no other reason. He held the club to ransom for more cash say no more. Well heres to an interesting if not probably disappointing summer. Lets hope for RVP or someone of that quality keep your fingers crossed but do not hold your breath. I AM KLOOT

I know this is going to get a mixed reception. But we shouldn't waste our money and time on Hazard.
One reason...He wants to play for Real Madrid.
The only reason he is coming to the premier league is to improve his profile, he wants to prove to Madrid that he can play in the best league in the world and give it 2 or 3 years he will be out the door and on the way to Spain. He has the same dream as Cristiano Ronaldo and we couldn't stop him and he loved the club.
I would much rather us look elsewhere.

i think the kagawa deal is inevitable. gaitan i think will also arrive and i think we should give martinez whatever he wants. if theese 3 arrive i dont think another striker is essential, this is because ferguson has said he wanted to go back to our fast paced exciting style of play which included 1 striker and 2 wide men or 3 strikers, whatever you want to refer to it as. so with martinez and carrick sitting deep dictating play with kagawa given a free role further afield with nani giatan and rooney up front. as ferguson said will keane will get a chance in the first team this year it leaves us with wellbeck, hernandez and keane as backup in the striker position. we also will have giggs scholes cleverly and valencia. this is already a massively improved team from this year.
so lets assums, in:
kagawa -10m
gaitan- 20m
martinez- 30m
this represents a rather large outlay in regards to transfer funds but it is similar to last year and all the players are young.

I have just been speaking to my friend in Andalucia who says that United have scouted Isco from Malaga a number of times? I think he is a winger/attacking midfielder and is 19. He reckons that Isco is the back up plan to Hazard, he is preffered to the likes of Gaitan etc as he is so young and has so much potential to develop. The other player i heard we were linked with was Jese from Real Madrid, again, another exciting prospect.

Kagawa is in the bag...Without a doubt.
Ive Just had confirmation that he is excited to be part of a regeneration of mufc.
- also, I've heard nothing about Luka leaving THFC, it's hard to imagine Chelsea securing champs league spot so Luka would be happy to stay at THFC, same goes for bale. They are building a club not a circus.
In the interest of MUFC I think kagawa and gaitan will be all we need to acuite in the window , maybe a youngster to groom too .
P.s let city have hazard .... It will ruin the dynamics of their club with so many huge egos. And that's not what MUFC IS Want.

I see both kagwa and hazard have admitted there is a good chance of them winding up at united next season.
I know most people think it one or the other, but why not both? Think of the quality and strength in depth that would bring, throw in a midfield(e.g modric) and we good to go. We could beat city to the league and we could compete for the champions league next season. Look at this:
Rooney
Hazard kagwa Nani
Modric Carrick
Evra Vidic Smalling Rafael
Gea
This team definately wouldnt be lackin in skill and technical ability, i mean hazard rooney, nani, kagwa and modric. We would unlock any defence with such quality. On top of that we could have a decent squad:
jones, welbeck, hernadez, evans, valencia, young, progba, scholes, giggs and ferdy.
Estimated cost:
hazard 35m
modric 30m
kagwa 10m
total 75m
that would be an amazing transfer window.
Back to reality. What i actually see is city beating us to hazard and modric stay at tottenam after they quality for the c.l resulting in us only signing kagwa and a cheap midfielder no one has ever heard of.
Then we will hear excuses of how we tried and how we wont be held to ransom. Goodtimes :-(

I think the whole transfer situation will depend on one deal...Eden Hazard.
It will all depend on if fergie manages to sign him ahead of city, it's obvious fergie likes him and he is our main summer transfer target (marquee signing).
If we are unsuccseful in a bid to sign Hazard I can see the players being brought in increasing from Fergie originally being 2-3 players to 5 or 6.
The Players I can see being at our club for the first game of the season are;
-Shinji Kagawa
-Nico Gaitan
-Nathaniel Clyne
-Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa
-Javi Martinez (would be the Marquee signing)
-And a striker (have no idea who that could be

I was just wondering and thinking about the comments I think it was sheringham made about fergie still wanting Sneijder. I know the man has been injured this year but do people think he would be a quality signing for anything under 20 million. Surely he could arrive and play the role Scholes is currently playing as his passing is equally as good as Scholes. However my only worry with him is that he seems to have a big ego and attitude problem so I am not sure whether he would like to be in a squad that may alternate their team weekly to give youngsters a chance next season like Cleverley.
So i am not sure whether he would fit in. It also appears as those we will be playing 3 in midfield next season so he would fit in our system but maybe our squad and the mentality of the squad. What does everyone else think?

Sources close to the player say that he was very impressed with what the United chief had to say about Kagawa's role in the team, and he has been convinced to sign a deal with the Old Trafford club.
16 May 2012 14:48:23
SAF's big money signing will be Luca Modric. He will also go in for James McCarthy from Wigan who will take on the Scholes role and renew his partnership with Cleverley. And finally he will take a punt on young Jordan Rhodes from Huddersfield.

Realistically united will get kagawa, gaitan, clyne and fingers crossed modric! i dont think i want that mercenary hazard in our team. If we can get 100M off the glazers then we should aquire martinez (26M), Kagawa (8M), Gaitan (23M) or Modric(30M), Clyne (free/compensation), a LB (who i have no suggestions for, but def not Baines!) and if they were extra generous then a striker aswell (maybe the falcon, papa cisse, llorente, soldado or cavani). We def have to ship out the likes of Berbatov, Owen, Macheda, Park and Carrick and loan out a few of the younger players like Fabio, Petrucci etc. I would also like to think that scholes and giggs both would have far less playing time next season and could maybe influence the squad in other ways. What do u reckon?

So Kagawa has met Fergie and said...

Trust me, if you came to us, it would be one big challenge!
Not exactly encouraging words from a player I thought would be a dead cert to sign. No doubt he wants more money but also I wouldn't be surprised if we've given him an average package.
I wouldn't be surprised if this deal is dead now.

I hate to say it but am gutted MCFC won the title but as history goes we always come back stronger. With a few signings we should be okay. My take is that we require a RB to rival Rafael, a LB to push Evra, two CM's one more defensive minded than the other, a left footed LW and a striker to replace Berbatov.
RB - Debuchy/Clyne/Sime Vrsjalko
LB - Izaguirre/Cissokho
CM - Strootman/Fellaini/Kovacic/Sahin/Cabaye/Allen/Kagawa/Bender/Barkley/Baldej/Sigurdson/De Marcos
LW - Gaitan/Tadic/Gaston R/McClean/Hazard/Muniain/Tello
ST - Henriquez/E.Torres/Lewandowski/Rodrigo/Llorente
Then next summer we could get a replacement for Rio like Pique, Hummels

I'm usually very level headed when it comes to my expectations for United's transfers, but I seem to be getting encouraged by what I hear/read on this site.
Sadly I don't think we will get Martinez (gutted about) or Hazard (unconvinced how much of a success he'll be in another league - potential to be like Pastore). I believe we will sign the following players:
- Kawaga (for once some real value in the market)
- Gaitan (better than a lot of people on this site give credit for)
- An Unknown Player, unless Pogba stays (which I doubt).

Surely if Drogba is yet to sign a new deal with Chelsea we have to be interested in him? He'd be a good option for Barca, but i would love him here for a season or two. With the experience that we will be losing he would be a good addition to the squad and would come with no fee, just a reasonably high wage.

Many deals look like they could be being sorted soon, i think the Kagawa one will be complete within two weeks after he met with SAF yesterday and also Hazard says that he will decide his future on Monday, you would think that means he has at least two offers on the table, probably from us and City. Hopefully he joins us! I'm surprised the Nathaniel Clyne deal is taking so long, perhaps SAF wants more experience in Debuchy and then get someone like Jetro Williems. SAF must be thinking about this as otherwise why would the deal be taking so long?

I have little to no interest in what city or any other club do in transfer market but i do belive it is time we made a statement and signed/spent big, would love us to get 2/3 of the following; martinez, modric, higuain or lloriente hazard/goetze or walker from spurs, would also like to see us take a chance on mccarthy from wigan, think he has a big future.... but the reality is different, the fact that scholes/giggs (great players though they are) have signed on for another year means theres an excuse for not singing an AM/winger. Also i get worried that Gill has already come out with the usual "there are funds available", this is usually followed by "theres no value in the market". With the signings of jones/smalling/young etc last year would expect more youth with the idea of building a team for the long term
Players out should be:
Berbatov...doesnt suit our play
Evra..pls has cost us so many goals this season
Carrick... as no one ever seems to score from his sideways/backwards passing.
NANI...not consistent enough
Rio...passed it
Anderson...too injury prone and is eating all the pies
As for Pogba, the fact that he has dragged his heels for so long, just pack his bags and send him on his way.
While my ideal players in are above i think its more likly we will go for:
clyne 2mil
gaitan could be the "marquee" signing, but i think would be a huge mistake as dont rate this guy at all.
and a couple of other 3-4 mil young with great potential players.
i hope i am wrong but i see a barren few years ahead.

Hey ed's,just wondering with the kagawa deal looking like it could happen and the sickening thought of missing hazard..is there a chance we could move for muniain/james rodriguez?and is there any signs of a centre mid like strootman being looked at?thanks {Ed002's Note - Muniain was touted around the clubs on behalf of Bilbao in January - and the two clubs in England that were approached were Chelsea and Manchester United. The asking price was 40M euros. They won't get it because I don't think clubs would risk half of that on a player who is young and has had some off field issues. If the price comes down to a reasonable level I can see interest from several English clubs including Manchester United and Liverpool. Roma interest is still there and rumours abound of Juventus and Malaga interest but perhaps an eventual move to Barcelona beckons. As of a couple of weeks ago, two clubs had spoken to Porto about James Rodrigues and Manchester United was not one of them. Bayern Munich have been looking carefully at Rodrigues as an alternative to Dries Mertens. The other club is Palermo. I would not be surprised if Manchester United had been having the player watched but they may be reluctant to pay the sort of fee Porto would be looking for. Manchester United are looking at Kevin Strootman who has previously been watched by Liverpool but I would be surprised if PSV would look to sell just yet. I would expect plenty of interest if he does become available.}

What Guillem Balague has said avout Higuian is...
-He wants to leave...
-Mourinho has told him he isn't leaving and is trying to convince him
- 2 offers from England, but he has his mind set on accepting PSGs offer....
Looks like the money has won again :/

Well, Guillem Balague has basically come out and said that Alba has agreed a contract with Barca and all that awaits is the agreement of a fee. More interestingly though is the fact that he said Barca can't afford Martinez. They need 3 or 4 players so can't splash out on one. Allegidly they have about 30 million euros.
What does this mean for us?
Well, it effects two potential targets in Bale and Martinez. Both of which will be expensive. Even with sales its unlikely that Barca will be able to afford either, so that knocks out another team from the race. Its mainly now between us Madrid and City. Its great news that Barca are potentially out of the race for these players. Hopefully we can get Martinez, Kagawa and Hazard with Bale going to Madrid.

Eden Hazard have lot of skills, but does any of you watch im week in week out? He is lazy, never chase back and go completely quiet for long period in game.
Yes its true he have unbelievable skills, can score goal and make some but i dont believe he is the player with the attitude than we need.
We need playmaker with courage and winning mentality. This player his maybe not in the market right now but we dont have to make some silly move like City are about to do.
The young Kagawa his better all around player than Hazard will ever be. People who speak so high of Eden have probably just watch him on youtube.

does the ed feel whoever doesnt acquire hazard will target belhanda french young player of the year 22 two footed pace bags of skill plays on either wing or behind the striker would probable cost half of what hazard will
or does sir alex have his eyes on gaitan and rodriquez
kagawa and belhanda for 25m would be great buisness and value for money cjwales82 {Ed004's Note - It is a possibility. From what I have seen of Belhanda he looks a good young player}
15 May 2012 22:21:23
united made enquiries about adebayor. improved as a player and matured as a man. nothing definate just sounded out the possibility. told wil be kept up to speed no more.

Also from someone else on twitter hazard agent asking for stupid money so united have pulled out, again only passing on what i have read so again not reliable. tom17

So United have sold Matty James and Ritchie De Laet to Leicester for £2m. Where's Rodio now with his info? Seems the clear out has began. I still expect to see Wootton, Brown, King & Norwood sold this summer from the ressies. Park, Berbatov, Kiko & Bebe to be sold too with Kuszczak & Owen released. I still think Anderson and Nani have prices on their heads too. With a clear out of this magnitude it would be nice to see a couple beauties like Kagawa signed. Fingers crossed.

Our main pull to get players is the respect top players have for Sir Alex. My worry is players will know soon he'll be leaving. 1 or 2 more seasons maybe?
Also the Manchester United history comes into it.
Villa, Liverpool, Forest all have European Cups way back in history. Blackburn have once won the Premier League.
Thing is it's all about money these days. We will offer player x that much City will offer player x more.
PLAYER X SIGNS FOR CITY.
We've even lost that player pull now. People wanted to play with Beckham, Scholes, Keane, Giggs, Ronaldo, Tevez, Rooney. We only have Rooney in his prime now and he kicked up a fuss about lack of ambition with star players coming in.
We need to go all out for Hazard and prove we have that pull.

Napoli, Juventus, Lazio, Barcalona pretty much all the top German & French sides plus Galatasaray all interested in Berbatov.
Fergie would be happy with 6m. I'm sure we'll get 8m if we push it.
His Agent has said he's happy and settled in England.
We didn't sell Heinze to Liverpool would we sell Berbatov to them? are Spurs interested? Arsenal?
He'd be there best player I'm sure.
I will miss Berbatov such a skilful player and great tekkers.

Just a thought.
IF Hazard were to sign for SH**Y then ehy have already stated they need to sell. What about putting in a bid for Nasri, he hasnt been that great for them since joining and IMO he would be the one to make way for Hazard.
Just a thought...

I have a hunch, just a gut feeling, that Hazard will sign for MUFC not MCFC. I could be wrong of course but I cannot see where city could accomadate a player like hazard when they already have enough options there. He is very young, still only 21 and I think he will want regular first team game time. Also however expensive he is I see SaF willing to spend £30m + on him because of this...

I just wanted to confirm, players and clubs can confirm deals before july 1st but can't officially sign deals until after july 1st. I am obviously only talking about transfers between different countries. Is this correct ed?
Plus the players I would like to see arrive
Marquee either one of:
hazard/lucas/martinez all between 30-35mil
plus
kagawa 7-12mil
Munian/gaitan 20-25mil
Ba 7mil
Trickee {Ed002's Note - Broadly it is correct. Clubs can agree that a transfer will take place and the terms of that transfer. Players, with the agreement of their club, can agree terms but cannot sign anything. Try avoiding using the word "marquee".}
15 May 2012 15:26:59
Just seen on Sky Sports that David Gill has say we have already identified our targets, and when questioned on Kagawa he said he wouldnt be drawn into answering questions about the player.
The players i would like to see.
Clyne
kagawa
hazard
lucas moura
martinez
lewandowski
van wolfswinkel
goetze
sahin
llorente
Cissoko
crisito.
I dont exspect them all but maybe 2-3 would be brilliant, we need a player like silva who can split open the defence with a killer pass and if i was fergie i would push so hard to get hazard, ive watched him afew times this year and he is simply brilliant, hes scored 15+ goals & 15+assists this years and he would be well worth the £30+ million!

I truly hope Hazard signs for us, not only because he looks like he could be nurtured and develop into something pretty dam special. Also i think it'd be a statement to other clubs such as: City, Chelsea and Madrid that players do want to play for United and no matter how much money they throw at them there is the odd human being who prefers our club for the right reasons. It would also go a step towards unifying any doubting fans. You never know he could be the next Cristiano (Big statement but it may happen)
Here's to hoping.

is there any interest in this player Ed?Deep Rider {Ed002's Note - The Moura situation is complex because his agent is trying to get an auction going for the player but Manchester United will not be interested at the quoted price. Ganso no. Iturbe perhaps a future deal beckons.}

City have spend around 460m pounds since the takeover of Sheikh Al-Mansoor (Season 2008-09).
Manchester United have spend around 125-130m pounds from Season 2008-09 to 2011-12 and have achieved 3 PL titles, 2 League Cups & all the Community Shield while on the other hand City have just won a F.A Cup and a PL title on only goal difference.
You will still say now that Six Alex haven't done enough for the club.
I don't think so.
I.M.O
Kagawa (upfront with Rooney as AM)
Hummels (for Ferdinand)
Erieckson, Sneijder, Hazard (availability)
