If we are to compete in europe next season were going to need a larger than usual overhaul this summer. Heres what I would say is a likely list of targets.
RB- Clyne, Debuchy
CM-Barkley, Hazard, Munian, Modric
ST-Damiao, Llorente, Benzema/Higuain

Personally i reckon the most likely 3/4 depending on CM signings. What would people think about signing Clyne, Barkley, Modric, Damiao (Personally prefer benzema)??

Nice to see Ravel Morrison's move is paying off for him. He's a regular in the West Ham atm... Jokes aside, it's clear his move can't have been for playing time, nor would he have wanted to move down south, so that only leaves one more thing... $$$$$$

I have uploaded a picture of Angelo Henriquez on Man Utd Sightings if people are wondering if they have seen him in action or not.

Are you daft? How does saying a player (that was taking a few pelters a couple of months ago) has now proved the doubters wrong and me along with a few supporters of him right (Toni), constitute me getting on a 'moral high horse'? Do you understand what that means? Which morals am I standing for? I am rather confused?

Both Toni and Pogba are not getting any posts on here anymore slating them for whatever reason so that proves the point I was making, that the doubters have gone quiet. No doubt because they are playing well / getting some game time now respectively.

I see you never answered my questions, if Pogba did sign on for more money or the question on Rooney?

I think you must be missing the irony in having a go at me for some supposed 'moral' stance when you are having a rant about a lack of 'morals' that Pogba and his agent are apparently showing?

Seen as it is not SAF's personal wealth that will pay Pogba's contract that guarantees there is more than SAF, Pogba and his agent in the know. The fact YOU then added Gill yourself proves that haha.

The fact you are having a moan about grammar and spelling in posts on an Internet fans forum makes me think your the one being a tad childish. If all you can do is pick others grammar up then maybe you should not involve your mighty self in these conversations. I also did not shout 'I am right'. I merely showed how those doubting posters disappearing has proved peoples faith in Toni's quality and that Pogba is good enough to play, correct!

As a last point. You are using an excuse of predictive text for your spelling mistakes but then continue on to say 'there is no excuse other than laziness or stupidity'.

Hmmmmm, I shall let you fester on that one!

De Gea rafael smalling vidic evra
martinez scholes/carrick
valencia hazard welbeck/nani
rooney

I doubt this will get posted as the Ed's would much rather put on banal schoolyard name calling from plastic scousers. I AM KLOOT {Ed001's Note - I would have posted it, because I do agree, except I would have included United fans in that as well, as they are just as bad. But your childish little digs just ensured that there is not a chance in hell you would get it posted.}

sorry my mistake jordan rhodes turned twenty two last month. Still wouldn't have him at united though. If he was that good a top championship or lower end premier league club would have picked him up by now. Just don't see the sense in going for a third division player. Would you suggest buying the top scorer in serie c? No you wouldn't. So why suggest division three players? I'd rather give will keane the chance to prove himself.

20 Mar 2012 12:42:21
Who would you rather sign to play left wing,

James Rodriguez, Iker Muinian or Eden Hazard?

I'd rather have Rodriguez as he's a natural Lefty and I feel he'll grown into the best player.

With our recent defeat to AB and the fact that most would consider Barca & RM to be the top 2 clubs side in the world at the minute, ******** published a list of 10 young spanish players that maybe available this summer.

10. Alvaro Dominguez (Atletico Madrid)
Adaptable defender who is now a firm part of Vicente del Bosque’s Spanish senior set-up, due his first full cap after being named in recent squads

9. Ander Herrera (Athletic Bilbao)
Former Real Zaragoza man is coming of age at San Mames

8. Martin Montoya (Barcelona)
Spanish Under 21 international struggling to make an impact at Barcelona but no doubt a right back with an abundance of talent.

7. Rodrigo Moreno (Benfica)
Pint sized striker doing well at Benfica and could be keen on Premier League return after loan spell at Bolton.

6. Jordi Alba (Valencia)
Young full back is coming on leaps and bounds and could be of great interest if he impresses at the Euro 2012 finals.

5. Oscar de Marcos (Athletic Bilbao)
His goals against Man United, and his all round play, could well have tempted a few prospective suitors.

4. Thiago Alcantara (Barcelona)
Top notch midfielder who is by no means a regular at the Nou Camp and attracting a lot of prospective interest in England.

3. Javi Martinez (Athletic Bilbao)
Mountain of a midfielder and a player with the physical stature to do well in the Premier League.

2. Cristian Tello (Barcelona)
Barcelona youngster out of contract this summer, on his way to England?

1. Iker Muniain (Athletic Bilbao)
Young starlet impressed greatly as Athletic Bilbao strolled past Man United. Spanish football fans have been marveling at the teenagers talents for some time and now he’s firmly on the Premier League radar.

If we could get 3 who would everyone want and in what order.

Mine would be;

1. Martinez
2. Muniain
3. Alcantara

I think a player like alxis sanchez from barca would be an amazing signing, young, has speed, power and most important he knows where the goal is.

On football-rumours site someone posted that liverpool are going to bid 102 m pounds for gareth bale.if they get 10 m worth carroll for 35 m there is every chance that they may get 30 m worth bale for 102 m.in both cases the bid is more than 3 times their actual worth. A trillion pound bid for messi may well be on their mind.

Apparently Barca want our Da Silva twins and if United where to sell i would be very dissapointed.
I hope the interest In our young Full back twins from the Catalans will show some of our fans that they are very good players with a good and long future ahead of themselves!

I hope the interest is only rumours and if it wasn't what do people think on SAF selling them? Will he be interested in selling them?!

I find the talk of Cleverley and the twins not being good enough ridiculous.

Cleverley has just come back after being out injured for some time. Look at Valencia when he got injured playing for Ecuador in the summer and missed pre-season. It took him some time to find form and people were saying he was past it, he should be sold etc and now everyones saying what a top player he is.

Far to many people are choppy with their comments on here and base there opinions on a game to game basis. i.e now he's good , now he's bad etc.

Evans is a fantastic example of how a run in the first team can help develop consistency and form. I have previously slated Evans on here before along with alot of other people on here. But he has to be up there with Rooney and Valencia as first names on the team sheet now.

I think Fabio should be playing LB and Rafael at RB until the end of the season and keep Jones and Smalling as back up CB in case Evans or more likely Rio gets injured. It makes sense to at least play Rafael at RB as he adds alot to the side in terms of hims enthusiams, determination and energy. Albeit he can be rash but he is young still. Fabio deserves a chance at LB as Evra doesn't seem interested in defending. He attacks but doesn't defend and teams seem to pick him out as our weakness now. This in turn means whoever plays LW has to play more defensively as Evra lack of tracking back means the LW in question ends up playing more like a WB.

All in all when Cleverley gets a good run of games and his form returns, he will return to how he played before he got injured.

There are more points between us and liverpool (28) than between last place wolves and liverpool (20).

I like find it comical how they come on here and claim that they're improving while we're in decline...

I say we go in for the the three bilbao stars, Muniain, llorente and martinez, sell berbatov, park and maybe the twins. And possibly buy kyle walker and leighton baines
