Just My honest opinion

I feel if we meet Barca's Valuation of Fabregas they will sell and he will then choose us over any arsenal bid. (He's a winner and now he has had success at Barca will want to continue to be at the forefront of a title chase)

I think Fellaini is next on our radar and a top winger with Nani on his way out - my choices would be Di Maria, Lamela * Draixler as realistic - Bale & Ronaldo if we sell rooney to fund this although I feel replacing rooney is a must - Lewandowski on loan would be great business - keep him for a year let him fall in love with the club pay BD £5 - £8M for his services and fight with Bayern next year for his signature. Thoughts?

Sounds awesome on paper but why on earth would BvB loan Lewa to anybody?

2.) Well they will most likely keep hold of him until the end of his contract and let everyone fight over him.
I just think if we paid an amount up front - covered his wages and sent a player their way with the loan lasting till Jan they can then decide to sell for cut price but hopefully by that point he has had a great few months, got the fans on his side and swayed him away from Bayern.

Finally someone who agrees with my out of the box idea to get RL on loan for a year! I reckon BVB would want more than that though. He wants out and it would be better for them to loan him to us rather than sell him to Bayern and I doubt they'd get much from Bayern. But even if he only stayed a year, a loan fee plus wages couldn't be much more than Rooney's wages alone.

Dreamland hwrebi come is a big understatement! I just don't see him fitting in if all of that was to go to plan, and if van Persie was to get injured I can only assume Chicharito/Ronny would be first choice cover at Striker

Afternoon All, I'm an avid reader of the site, I read daily great for others opinions and have supported Manchester United for 20 years!. 1st POST. I will apologise for the long comment but I like everyone else is not as optimistic as usual regarding our current squad and our actual chance of defending our title and in Europe to - I find our transfer activity rather strange - I have a feeling we have pursued a number of players but with the 2 bids which are public (Baines & Fabregas) there is a lot left to be desired. Baines for me is not good business - they will ask for around £18M for a player who has 4 years MAX! and in a position where we have 3 players (EVRA who may leave BUTTNER & Fabio) Fabregas I rate very highly and would be our best midfielder if he came but unless Barca except he will surely not ask to leave - it's his home club in his home land with his best friends who he plays with for club and country. Fingers crossed though but this signing would not be enough.
We need 2 midfields and a wide player IMHO and we will not get those players. Look at other teams and compare how good our midfield squad actually is
Chelsea - Lampard Essien Shuurlle Van Ginkel, Hazard, Moses, Mikel, Mata*, Ramires, Oscar

Man City - Navas, Silva*, Nasri, Toure*, Barry, Milner, Fernandinho, Rodwell, Javi Garcia, Sinclair

Bayern - Ribery, Martinez, Robben*, Shaquiri, Goetze*, Gustavo, Schweinsteiger*, Emre, Kroos, Muller

MANUTD - Carrick, Zaha, Nani, Kagawa, Cleverley, Jones (DM), Valencia, Giggs, Fletcher (when available), Anderson

Reading our players after those 3 midfields and ask yourself are we capable of dominating the midfield - the answer would be No, they all have 1-3 world class or close to it midfielders*and very good options after those - we have good in Carrick - a potential great this season in and no ball winners at all. Bayern have 5 or 6 midfield players better than our current best midfielder Carrick. The following should be shown the door - Anderson & Nani & replaced with one top winger e.g Di Maria, Bale, Ronaldo and Anderson to be replaced with 1 or 2 players e.g Fabregas, Fellaini who will bring a real presence, aerial threat and nuisance to our team, De Rossi (who has gone quiet in the window) Verratti (who will become a top player), Vidal, Marchisio.
We need a ball winner and a playmaker in midfield by the end of the market otherwise midfield battles in Europe and the top teams in the PL will be lost more times than won and ultimately with our current squad I can't see us dominating as we have previously as we are the only team yet to improve. Open for comments.

1.) You are spot on, can't argue with that and I have been saying the same for some time.
Its not about us buying players like confetti, it is about us buying TOP players. Top players cost money and big wages, but we need to make up out minds whether we want to keep up with the likes of bayern real barca, city and Chelsea, or just reinforce with average or potentially good players. We have bought a load of those in the past few years, nani, Anderson, bebe, obertan, bellion, tosic, young and these cost a lot of money, but have been a disaster on the field and financially.
Sometimes, you just have to go out and buy the best to improve. Rvp is case in point.

2.) Totally agree. if you add up the money wasted on all the dross listed by no midfield it would probably be enough to buy a quality proven player
