How keen are we on icardi ed? Also is this Kenny from Brazil as good as it sounds and could a deal be on the cards?

steermaria

{Ed002's Note - Inter's Mauro Icardi has been subject to interest from Atletico Madrid and Chelsea. Inter want to have him sign a new deal. I can't help with the other question.}

Hi ed,
Are you aware of any interest in geis from mainz, seems like a hot midfield prospect?

steermaria

{Ed002's Note - Not from MU.}

Hi ed, you mentioned on a previous comment barca may look to move suarez on in order to rebuild. Can you shed any light on his ssituation? Would we be among others interested?

steermaria

{Ed002's Note - The situation is as I explained, Suarez may well be moved on. Manchester United have shown no interest in the player ever - so I don't see any chance of a move.}


1.) 09 Feb 2015 10:18:25
Ed002 didn't we have some interest in Suarez when he was at Ajax or is that just conjecture?

{Ed002's Note - If you are a Spurs supporter then yes.}


2.) 09 Feb 2015 15:04:52
he's more trouble than he's worth !

Hi ed, rumours suggesting laporte could happen soon if we stump up the 31million euro. Do you see it happening this week as we are in a precarious position for top 4 with our defenders?

steermaria

{Ed002's Note - I cannot sensibly comment on the timing of transfers, but it smacks of desperation to be overspending on fourth or fifth choice players.}


1.) 27 Jan 2015 09:46:31
Interesting if he is 4th or 5th choice. He would be my 2nd after Hummels. i'd like to know who No.2 and 4 are though. Is Schar on that list?

{Ed002's Note - This has been done to death and I have no intention of keep on repeating myself.}


2.) You say with "our" defenders, we've let in 2 more than Chelsea and 1 less than city. not too bad for saying that's our weakest area added the fact LVG hasn't been able to string two matches together with the same line up. just saying


3.) 27 Jan 2015 11:18:06
If we are willing to spend 30mill on a CB like Laporte then we should atleast look to tempt madrid with a 30mill bid for Varane or put in a sizeable offer for Coleman as a new RB.


4.) 27 Jan 2015 11:23:00
I agree with ish1982. The defence is not as bad as everyone makes it look out to be. We wouldn't be talking about a CB signing now if we created and scored more like we should. The top end of the pitch is not scoring enough. rvp, falcao, rooney, di maria and mata. A united team with that talent should be averaging 2 goals a game in the league not 36goals in 22games.


5.) 27 Jan 2015 12:14:26
The amount of goals we have conceded compared to Chelsea is now being touted around as a positive but we need to remember we have done this playing with 3 centre halves which imo has definitely had an impact on our attacking play due to the fact that the available pass is always back to a centre half. So strengthening at centre half would surely allow us to play with a flat back 4 thus giving us another attacking player??


6.) 27 Jan 2015 12:24:04
I would rather LVG concentrated on getting the current squad to play as a team rather than look to transfers.
As Southampton have proved, you don't need big names to build a team, just an organised defence, a midfield that can create chances and pace in attack, damn it I think I could do this job.


7.) 27 Jan 2015 13:50:46
redsand. Totally agree! Even with 3 centre backs we concede more goals than our rivals. Our defense is the worst part of our team, despite the big name attackers not pulling their weight either. The squad needs a major overhaul. Southampton can more than match our squad in defense and midfield.


8.) De Gea has been a big part of why we haven't conceded as many as we probably should have too lads!


9.) Agree with MS too. 3 centre backs and a goalkeeper in the form of his life, yet we've still conceded a ton of goals. We need at least 1 new cb and a new rb.


10.) 27 Jan 2015 15:12:03
If you united are going to spend 30 million on a centre half, we should buy varane from real Madrid.


11.) 27 Jan 2015 20:19:28
De gea has certainly been a big factor in our defence! All our centre backs are not playing well and new defenders are definitely needed! But I also agree a back 4 is a must with more faith put in Rafael at right back and shaw staying fit at left back. Rojo and a toss between smalling or jones at the minute of all fit. Van gaal needs to decide how midfield can start feeding up top because strikers aren't getting a sniff. They are having to drop into midfield to get on the ball most of the time.


12.) 28 Jan 2015 04:30:11
I think its Guillem Ballague jumping the gun like he usually does. I highly doubt that United will spend that much on him when he is clearly not first choice.

Hummels and Garay would be gettable in the summer and we should wait until then. Laporte or Marquinhos would represent inexperienced options at ridiculous prices.

If there is one young defender worth spending big on, its Varane.

Are we after signing Alves this month ed?

steermaria

{Ed002's Note - I really don't know - I am aware that Alves does not want to leave Barcelona and that Juventus has spoken with Barcelona about him. At some point before Christmas Manchester City also made an approach about his availability.}


1.) 25 Jan 2015 13:45:06
Have we expressed our interest like the others you mentioned?

{Ed002's Note - RTP.}

Hummels, dragovic, marquinhos, laporte, vidal, Clyne?!?!?! Got a feeling lvg is bluffing and secretly will attempt to make one signing by the end of tomorrow!

Hi ed, are you aware of any plans to offer perreira a new deal or do you see him moving on. Don't want another pogba situation on our hands

steermaria

{Ed002's Note - I know nothing of his contract.}


1.) 30 Jan 2015 09:15:44
steer,

I wouldn't worry about that, Perreira is not quite at the level Pogba was at the same age. He has only just turned 19 though so I would be surprised if we didn't offer him a new contract soon.


2.) Were supposed to have offered him a new contract which he has turned down our opening offer.


3.) Correct, what John said. He has rejected our initial offer. I agree yet disagree with GDS on this, he is one to watch out for. I will do whatever it takes to keep him.

Deeps.


4.) What you going to do Deeps? kidnap? blackmail? torture?


 

 

11 Jan 2015 12:56:55
Hi ed, do you know any information on the progress with new contracts for mcnair, blackett, perreira etc? Will they all be offered new deals?

steermaria

{Ed002's Note - No idea.}


 

 

03 Jan 2015 16:50:20
Hi eds, found my post under 'my recent posts '. It appears they are going to the banter page and not the rumours page where I wanted them to go. Anyways thanks for your replies. While I'm posting a quick question. could ilkay gundogan end up at old Trafford this window?

steermaria

{Ed002's Note - They may be on the Other page.


1.) What about gundogan ed? Is he an option?

{Ed002's Note - He has not been playing well so is available. I cannot see why MU would want him.}


 

 

02 Jan 2015 09:14:57
Hi eds,
A new one but could united be interested in kyle walker as a much cheaper option for right back? He's young, English and very good when fully fit? Also can you see Harry kanes future away from Tottenham in the near future if they miss out on champions league?

steermaria

{Ed002's Note - No and No.}

Mcnair looks comfortable at right back but he's not the best crosser and that's important in that role. But I would like to see him play there for a few games

Why do Chelsea need varane when cahill can't even get in their team! Terry has at least 2 years left and zouma looks awesome!

steermaria

{Ed002's Note - How many games has Cahill not started this season. It embarrasses you when you speak from a position of ignorance. Chelsea has a long term interest in the player and has been negotiating with Real Madrid. A deal was close but not possible for reasons not worth explaining.}
