As usual Blackburn owners Venki showing a remarkable lack of class......unless Jones didnt have a 16m release clause if he does theres still no way they can stop the transfer

SAF has given Real Madrid permission to speak to Rooney and Chicarito after accepting an offer of 40million + Ozil. You heard it here first, I wouldn't post on here if i wasn't at least 90% sure.

-------------------------------------------
I heard this aswell but didn't believe it was true, but now that you've said it aswell i'm worried.

What a load of bollocks! For a start 40mil + Ozil wouldn't even match the valuation for Rooney. Why would Sir Alex even consider selling his first choice strike partnership to European rivals when everyone knows winning the European Cup before he retires is one of his main priorities?

11 Jun 2011 21:31:04
i know that 25million is a bit too much for a player that's not even a first team player but i think in the future we could regret not signing him.

The Sun on friday claimed United had spent £55m. £18.5 on Dea Gea, £20m on Young and £16m on Jones... However, none of these players have put pen to paper yet.

De Gea can't because of the rule about not signing players from abroad until july 1st.

Young cancelled his wedding and has gone on holiday for a week so we won't hear anything about Young for atleast another week or so.

Jones I honestly can't see him being a United player next season. The deal has stalled because Blackburn have turned round and said they want £25m for him. SAF is not stupid... He won't pay that amount of money for someone who isn't even first team player at Blackburn.Jones has a £16 million minimum fee release clause which means that any club that meet that valuation can speak to him about a transfer to their club.

The Venkys misunderstood what the minimum fee clause meant. Theoretically speaking they can't do anything about it. They have spat theri dummies out because they want more for him. In the end there isn't really alot they can do about it. Funnily enough everyone has jumped on the bandwagon and blown this out of proportion. Remember Jones has had a medical and agreed terms.

Ed can you confirm that what i have writen is write, albeit Venkys could go to court but would more thn likely lose!! {Ed001's Note - there is no telling what could happen over the release clause. An agent told me that they don't believe release clauses are legally enforcable in the UK.}

Excuse me?! How much did United pay for Rooney again!? Was Rooney a first teamer for Everton then? {Ed012's Note - He played 35 games for Blackburn and missed the others due to injury/ being rested by Allardyce. Jack Rodwell is a prime example of how injuries can build up if you play too much PL football too early)

Guys, we can really be optimistic right now.
We have signed the best young goalkeeper in the world in De Gea, set piece specialist and versatile english attacker in Young and future John Terry who can also play as a DM very well. The only thing we need to sort out is one CM. And we have all summer left. The transfer window hasn't even opened yet and we have 3 signings already. And with Nasri deal looking more and more likely... Nasri recently made it clear that he would be comfortable to join another English club apart from Tottenham when he said: "I'm not saying I will not play for another English club except Spurs. When I play for one club, I can't play for their biggest rivals.

"Money is not the most important thing. I am 23, what's important is that I have a good team that can get better."

Happy days

to all the people that keep posting about carrick and kuzchach(spelling wrong i know) being sold or being involved in deals etc

for 1 carrick signed a new contract only a couple months ago so hes goin nowhere and 2 im pretty sure kuzchach contract has only 6 months left so we wnt be gettin x amount of millions for him

and they are rafa FACTS

11 Jun 2011 16:52:26
"everyone is posting what they hope will happen, which is nasri, sanchez, young. this is not going to happen we already have nani and valencia two good wingers. unfortunately SAF has gone and got the worst out of all the three.
berbatov and carrick to leave which will leave money for about 20 and 10 mil respectively to give sir alex a bit of spending money for a centre mid - not modric too expensive for what he is will likely be hamsik."

Nasri is NOT a winger. He is a central attacking midfielder which is where he played for Arsenal when Fabregas was out. That was the part of the season when he was outstanding. Also Carrick wont be sold as he has experience, was a consistant performer at the end of last season and is actually quite good at what he does contrary to popular belief.

////////////////////////////

1. We would sell Chicharito and Rooney to the same club at the same time

2. Real Madrid would even think about selling Ozil.

I bet you talk rubbish 90% of the time.

I know more people have been warming to the idea but there are still a lot of United fans that oppose us signing Young. However, if you think about it left wingers is probably the weakest position at the moment at least in European football. There are tons of super right wingers but when it comes to the left there are very few excellent left footed ones. This therefore makes Young a lot better than it actually seems he is and in fact quite good value for money.

Er except young is right footed !

11 Jun 2011 15:15:27
Against Barcelona, we lacked a destructive midfield general. Fletch is great, he is rangy and covers the ground quickly, playing the ball simply but was shown up by Ramsey, when the Scots played the Welsh. Carrick plays well and has a good reading of the game and manages to intercept, but his goalscoring record should be so much better, I think we need someone to stamp their authority on a game, and spray the ball about a bit. Maybe Jones can fill that gap, but he isn't that nippy, or Pogba, who is still a bit green.

Someone earlier suggested that there are no strong left footers about, what about Douglas Costa? He has indicated in the past, that he would jump at the chance of joining us.

11 Jun 2011 15:01:44
I just want to know one thing:
Why has no-one put pen to paper? Apparently we hav signed De gea, Young and Jones.
De Gea denies this and would prefer to move to Barca if the rumours are to be believed.
Blackburn say they now want 25 million for Jones, are they having a laugh he hasn't even had a full season. I personally wouldn't pay 8 million for him and thats not because I don't think he is good player it's because he is still relatively unknown.
I don't know what is happening with Ashley Young has he signed or not

11 Jun 2011 14:54:54
some of the guys are really going at it.! rooney +chicha for ozil+40m
please tell us oh mr.90% sure who then will play as striker? nani and valencia perhaps.
please dont post such nonsense. rooney and chicha are going nowhere and ozil is no way leaving real.

11 Jun 2011 14:04:56
@ There are tons of super right wingers but when it comes to the left there are very few excellent left footed ones. This therefore makes Young a lot better than it actually seems he is and in fact quite good value for money.

Ashley Young is right footed.

"SAF has given Real Madrid permission to speak to Rooney and Chicarito after accepting an offer of 40million + Ozil. You heard it here first, I wouldn't post on here if i wasn't at least 90% sure."

Firstly, why would Madrid allow Ozil to leave? Why would Ozil want to leave?

Secondly, why would ferguson sell the strikeforce that has clearly got a great understanding.

Rooney doesn't want to leave! He stated on twitter in the last week that he will only leave United when they don't want him.

Hernandez doesn't want to leave. He stated the other week that he owes a huge debt to Fergie for bringing him to Europe and that he loves playing in the great Manchester United team.

I'm gonna hazard a guess that you would post this on here if you dreamt it last night, which is the only place it could or would happen. {Ed012's Note

You have got to laugh at these Indian owners at Blackburn, they saw the interview on SSN with Harry Redknapp saying they have got a bargain there, ex-Blackburn Gallagher puts his ten pence worth in saying he was worth at least £25m, so the clueless Indians thought they will try and hold United to ransom. Jones wants the United move, United want the Jones move and the deal was agreed on £16m (the buyout clause). There's no going back now my Indian friends. Let them have Diouf on loan for one more year.

Sydney!

Ed. One name not mentioned with regards to a transfer to Old Trafford this summer is Douglas Costa. He and his reps were at Old Trafford last season. Any News on that one? {Ed012's Note - He was thought to be at Old Trafford, it was actually a group of young Brazilians who were on trial but he would be a great signing, however seems like we've signed Young instead now)

11 Jun 2011 12:12:05
Really interesting on the other rumors pages Ed? arsenal pages say's the nasri has signed a 5 year contract ? now the man united shopping list of class player is Almost gone

Sanchez to barc, Wesley to inter, nasri ( new contract), mordric to hunted by man city, Sergio Aguero to real

so how is the world class Sign ED? i also believe SAF does not buy big Signs but makes young players class

I wish to SEE a WORLD CLASS sign its been years.

11 Jun 2011 12:37:31
Just seen on sky sports that blackburn are asking for 26m for jones instead of 16m... Also, it said in the sun that the young deal could be off coz his girlfriend doesnt want to live in manchester, they wer suppost to get married today but called the wedding off.

DubRed7 {Ed012's Note - She obviously hasn't heard about the 3rd restaurant they've just opened in manchester- its the dogs bollocks)

11 Jun 2011 11:38:56
{Ed007's Note - From what I can gather, Nani will be in Italy next year, right or wrong AF sells at the right time for the good of the club}

That better be true cos I'm off down the bookies. {Ed007's Note -I never gamble, when do you ever see a poor bookie?}

11 Jun 2011 11:34:48
HEARD THIS NEWS TODAY MAN CITY HAVE ARE A HUNT FOR MODRIC. ED WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS ? HAVE LOST FOR SANCHEZ AND HE IS OFF TO BARC, WESLEY WANTS TO STAY IN INTER, MAN CITY IS AFTER MODRIC WILL HAVE CRAZY BIDS? IF NASRI STAYS @ ARSENAL? WHOM DO YOU THINK WE WILL SIGN ED?

NAVINAJ {Ed007's Note - It is Sneijders wage demands that are the stumbling block, I would love him to sign, but you lot have convinced me about Modric}

11 Jun 2011 10:46:24
hey ed, wats the story with Ashley Young?is he coming or not? {Ed007's Note - Good chance of it, he is on his honeymoon}

11 Jun 2011 07:46:16
It's encouraging to note the trasnferr activity going on at the minute. However one thing concerns me. We need to find an enforcer or midfield general, I've always said that we have never repalced Roy Keane, For me this is a crucial requirement. The problem is I can't think of anyone of real note who can do the job. Roy Keane had games won even before he went onto the pitch. Ask Patrick Vieira he knows.

11 Jun 2011 01:11:22
Hernandez will not be soled he is one of the central players in the advertising campaign. Also Nani wont be sold unless two wingers arrive. The aim is to improve and add not replace with the same level a la Young. Madrid arent as attractive as they used to be especially for Nani whos been fighting to get out Ronaldos shadow and Italy is dead so i realy dont get it.
I think Defour will come in and i think a marque signing will come we werent expecting, who i dnt know.
