Papers are wasting our time even mentioning Neymar but looking at transfer speculation elsewhere would people be happy if we were to put in bids for De Bruyne or Berahino? Just seen Lescott is also available but I'd rather put my grandmother at CB!

Wouldn't pay what city are being quoted for De Bruyne but I'd like to see Berahino come to the club, he's pacey and he can finish
Bale is the ideal transfer but realistically I can't see it happening

Hmm, I've not seen enough of him but he certainly has pace, something we are sadly lacking through the middle.
3.) 25 Aug 2015 07:17:40
Yeah, Ander Herrera is what's missing!

Ronnie,
You know Herrera has come on in 2 of the 3 league games where everyone is moaning about how bad we are? Herrera will get plenty of game time.

Ander Herrera needs to starts games to get into the flow of the game which then enables him to produce the goods! He's not an impact sub!
Start him or sell him, be interesting to know his stats when started?
Perhaps Edds could help with these if possible? Thanks, Ronnie.

We've been reading for a couple of years that Bruno Gomes looks set to join United and now it appears he may go to Udinese. Any truth behind this? Not only has he appeared to be a natural goalscorer at every level he has played at but he has also appeared to be a big United fan so I don't understand how we could let this opportunity slip away.
"Udinese are set to sign Desportivo Brasil striker Bruno Gomes.
Gomes, 18, has spent the past two summers training with Manchester United thanks to their relationship with Desportivo Brasil.
But it appears United manager David Moyes have decided to pass on the exciting striker talent.
Instead, Lance! says Udinese are this week in advanced talks about signing Gomes for €8 million."
{Ed002's Note - This may well drag on. Gomes has previously stated that he wishes to move to Italy and Juventus and Udinese have both held talks with his club. Manchester United hold part ownership of the player and were looking to make a decision next summer as I understand it.}
1.) Gomes said on more than 1 occasion that he is eager to work hard and move to MAnchester Utd in the last couple of years. But we are looking very well stocked in first teamers and youth players in the striking department so i'm not too fussed
2.) 20 Sep 2013 12:12:02
As Ed02 states it will carryon till the Summer. The player was actively tweeting his love for United, but early this Summer he suggested his dream may not happen. I'm not 100 per cent sure, but I think it's may be to do with his passport/visa situation. An attempt to get an Italian passport failed, his move to Italy may be a stepping stone to Old Trafford - but that's just speculation on my part. He hasn't yet played a senior game for Desportivo Brasil yet.
3.) The lad is obviously a talent and it would be silly not to try and bring him in. If he doesn't work out then so be it but on sheer talent alone, we should be bringing him and seeing how he integrates at the club. There's nothing to say we couldn't send the lad out on loan if needs be. I certainly think that, from what I have seen, he has more potential as a goal scorer than Henriquez.
4.) Apparently we united have 50 percent ownership. I presume it has a value and a value would have to be agreed with united. Ed/anyone if it is say as a limited company and say someone else has 50 percent does that make it tricky? Is it just 50 percent of value? Or would we have a share which can have involvement in what is decided? I'm guessing there are several parties involved though percentage wise.
{Ed002's Note - It is a simple part ownership deal that could also stay in place if he moved to Italy - although I suspect if that were to happen then Manchester United would look to sell their interest in the player. It provides no real consideration in terms of what is decided with his future.}
5.) So we get cash if he moves to Italy or we can get him ourselves. Really likeable lad but given how many promising young strikers we have I'm not bothered if we don't get him. Win win situation in my eyes.
6.) I did not realize we had part ownership in players. Do we have ownership in other players or is this a one off? {Ed002's Note - It has happened (Bebe) before but he is the only one I am aware of right now.}
7.) Gee
I hope Gomes turns out better than bebe LOL
8.) Ed do we have a 50% stake in any other Desportivo Brasil players like Evangelista (now at Sao Paulo), Aguilar, Agnaldo etc? {Ed002's Note - See above.}

Who in their right mind would price Pereira out of a move? Oh yeah, we're not run by people in their right minds.

We can't change the past unfortunately but we can do something about the present and influence the future. Surely nobody thinks it's acceptable to turn a blind eye to the abuse of human rights currently and publicly happening in Saudi, and, we know their ownership of our Club would simply be used for reputation laundering. If we thought getting rid of the Glazers is difficult can you imagine how hard it would be to remove someone who could afford to buy them out! I love our Club and would never want to see it used for political gain and to deflect from abusing human rights. Selling our souls for pieces of silver (ware) .?

Looking likely we'll be paying €50m+ for a relatively unknown, untested 19 year old, I'd suggest Laporte looks like a comparative steal. Reus would be great but I'm too realistic to see this happen.

RedKen you may be in the minority of one. Evans has had 7 full seasons in the first team (2008/09-2014/15) and is now consistently a liability. Yes he had one good season but 'potential' has passed and we'd do well to cash in on him and let other home-grown talents like McNair and Blackett take up the challenge

I was really impressed by him home and away last year, didn't give the defence a minutes rest, fast and strong. He's shown he can deliver in the Premier League
