Apparently Zorc has said that they will not be forced into selling Lewandowski and he will remain at Dortmund until the end of his contract. Fair play to them.

Just read that story as well, that surely has to make us favourites if you analyse the situation. If we sign Lewandowski and Thiago (both realistic and won't cost too much) we'll be set for the season. I of course would love Fabregas but would rather have Lewandowski, the only way to get Fabregas and Lewandowski is if we sell Rooney. Thoughts?

Broussia dortmund were very angry with bayern the way bayern behaved prior to the champions league final. After what happened with gotze and other attempts to unsettle the dortmund camp in the build up to the game, it seems dortmund are quite intent on selling to a club elsewhere.
The problem of course, ultimately if the player is prepared to wait out the year of his contract, dortmund will have a lot to loose. Probably around 25m.
Without fans behind him lewandowski could also has a lot to loose however, if he chooses to run down his contract. He could have a bad year next season being booed by home fans and could struggle to find form amidst that. It could well be that he dosent even feature for the side if he stays. Going to a new club after a very negative season may not be the same as going somewhere now. So Lewandoski has a lot to loose as well.
In the end I think it will depend who is prepared to call each others bluff more. I still think there is some chance lewandoski won't end up at bayern.

Well we'll just have to wait and see then.

He might be looking to go on a free in 2014. I am not convinced United seriously want him. Maybe Chelsea, but again, they have Torres, Ba, Lukaku and Debryne. Jose plays with on striker. So do they really need him? I can only see them moving three strikers out to accommodate him should they wish. Or maybe United can trade Chicha for Ronaldo and buy Lewandoski, but it's a very costly scheme. Thank GOD it's only my fertile imagination folks.

thanks for clarifying that I really needed someone to come on and state the obvious?

Jose getting rid of Ba? Okay so they have Torres and Lukaku? We know Mourinho is an admirer and we know Abramovich would be interested after his performances in the CL this year so they've got to be in the running? Especially after Falcao isn't available now.
I'd love Lewandowski but how would he fit in with RvP and Rooney? Seeing as Wayne isn't going anywhere.

I may get some stick for this but unless we sell rooney (whom I think may stay) and possibly chica then I do not think we can accomidate for him without having to cut back in other needed possitions and run the risk of been to top heavy

Ozwald Lewandowski and RVP can easily play beside each other, maybe one of them dropping back a little here and there, but this probably wouldn't be needed if we got the midfield enforcer we need.
12.) 10 Jun 2013
As much as I rate Lewandowski, where will he and RVP fit if we play a 4-2-3-1, considering we will also have hernandez, welbeck and possibly rooney? and do we have enough talent out wide for a 4-4-2 to accomodate both?

Can see Rooney in swap for £20mil cash plus Martinez/Badstuber. We then buy Lev and Thiago and we are all set. Ship out Nani, Valencia, Young and we go for a formation without wingers. Pure posession football with two of the worlds best footballing strikers linking, awesome.
