Apparantly rumours in spain that if nothing is agreed by sunday on the DDG transfer then he will sign another contract with United, I for one would be happy with that outcome if true.
03 Jul 2015 10:55:41
I'd be delighted if that were true. Personally I'd rather lose 30m but get a last top class season out of DDG. I know that doesn't make sense fiscally but we need to be firm with Real Madrid especially. And it's a great signal of intent: we keep our best players for as long as they are contracted to us.

I'd prefer to sell than lose for free but of course i'd rather he stayed and signed a new contract.
03 Jul 2015 11:06:25
Yep stand firm and get what we want if he goes or let him go on a free next season, unless he does sign an extension.

I agree be fantastic if he stayed. My concern is however Liverpool seem to be buying anyone who is available. Like everyone on here we have no idea what goes on behind closed doors. but my God it's heartbreaking to see our main rivals getting a March on us regarding transfers. If van goal what's new players before USA tour , he and woody better get their finger out. hope things to start to move quickly. I'm sick of popping heartburn tablets getting wound up.

Rock the red,
A march on us, how many of the players Liverpool signed would get in our team? Clyne probably but guessing we have another right back lined up. Firmino looks decent but don't know enough about him and could take time to settle. Our transfer targets are of a higher standard so will take longer to complete.

Rock, what are they getting a march on us? Which of their signings do you think we should have gone after? Ings? Milner? Bogdan? Perhaps we are setting our sights a little higher and it therefore takes a little longer. Depay is a class above all their signings and I am sure there will be a couple more. Keep taking the heartburn tablets

Haha come on guys rock the red is surely joking around

My my what a response. I was referring to quantity not quality . And the silence from inside the corridors of old Trafford is a little worrying don't you all think. Oh well back to the gavascon

These posts are getting boring now, we have targets and we're trying to get them, no point moaning about it, we're going about our business quietly which is probably for the best, ignore what the press say 99% of it is total bull. Don't expect tons of players coming in, we'll sign a few quality ones in the positions we need to strengthen just like Chelsea did last season.

Van Gaal said he wanted most of the signings in before the US trip, but for the quality of targets we are after, that deadline is very unrealistic. Woodward needs to get it done sooner rather than later though. We clearly need 3-4 players to slot into the starting 11 and they're going to need time to gel with the current squad if we're going to challenge for the title. A more realistic deadline will be a week or two before the start of the season
03 Jul 2015 18:59:39
We hae till say the 15th to get players in for the tour, we have Depay in and could very well have 2 more by then and maybe even a goalkeeper that is staying with us so plenty of time yet

Apart from Rock there is just too much common sense being spouted in this thread . A bit more lunacy required me thinks.
