henriquez apparently on the verge of signing,,,how good is he?will he get loaned out straightaway? surely berbatov and macheda to be shipped out as quick as possible,,,lm
He's a very good player in the making he's only 18 so 1 for the future may get a few game in the carling cup. RegTheRed

I remember earlier in the season one of the benfica chiefs saying the club would need to raise 50 million euros in sales. To my knowledge they haven't sold anyone so I thinks it's a good time to buy a player off them as they will be desperate to balance the books.

So... Henriquez will get game time, I am wondering whether we bought him as a striker now as I have seen him play wide right and he is very good there. You tell me how he warrants game time ahead of Welbeck and Hernandez no matter Rooney and RVP. He is an outstanding prospect and I for one am glad he is getting a shot.
Reserve level I'm sure he'll have loads of game time
Dustbin
I suspect his game time will consist of the new U21 league set up and Carling cup matches
RedKnight
You have just answered your own question saying he can play wide right. Welbeck and Hernandez are forwards.

Evening guys,
Just thought I'd let you know I have received some inside info that Manchester Utd have made an formal enquiry to Benfica over the availbilty of Alex Witsel. Don't know any more than that and if they would sell....
Before you all shoot this down I'm sure Ed or Sydney would have heard something as they seem to be in the know regarding Utd.
Pompey85
(Yes I'm a pompey fan before you all start!!)
Fergie has come out and said there might be one more if he's available so there could be some truth in this...
I heard united sent a letter enquiring about the availability of the player and roughly outlining their valuation of the player. Think a figure of approx 23.6 was mentioned, not sure if it was Ł or ...
Hope so!

This would be great sign just the type of player we need hope we pull it off!! RegTheRed

Just thinking about it. As has been widely discussed on here, Baines is quoted at around 12 million. What i don't understand is that that's around the same amount of money city paid for Rodwell...a very young up and coming player... The Everton hierarchy are ridiculous
Fagan
What part of do not want to sell do you not understand?
Everton aren't ridiculous but logical, Rodwell has barely progressed from 3 years ago-when we were looking to buy him. Funnily enough he goes off the boil, barely plays and man City sign him to rot on the bench. More fool them. Everton have much more influential players in midfield and knowing Moyes will make some aweosme signings with the fee collected.
Its not upto United to set a selling price. Baines is an Everton player so Everton set a price.....take it or leave it!!

Gaston Ramirez has turned down Liverpool for Southampton........hehe

His agent said that Spurs were the only other club to put in a bid so I don't think that is true
How do u work nthat one out, Bertie
Liverpool were never after ramirez, it was all just the press and his agent trying to engineer a move
He hasn't turned anyone down yet. The bid had been accepted by his club - he hasn't said anthing yet.

Hi all ! Just listening radio on my way home , they are saying United have tabled a 5 million bid for Muossa Dembela (spelling) of Fulham !!
"Seems a optimistic " to me !
fozzy58
They've turned it down and stated it was a 'very low' bid. I guess they're prepared to let him go for around 10-15m
We have bid for this player. U know the rules, start low 5m, hear the counter offer 15m. Offer 10m, they say, "no". Maybe through in Macheda or.......
Settle for 12m every bodies happy.
He will be ours come next week.
17 Aug 2012 19:13:37
talksh*t are now latching on to the comments from Martin Jol suggesting a Barclays premier league club has bid for Dembele.
they have now claimed that the team was Man Utd and the bid was determined as derogatory as it was under £5 million, less than Fulham's original offer when they bought the player.
RedKnight
17 Aug 2012 19:15:05
Reports are saying that Fullham rejected a bid below 5m from Manchester United for Dembele'.
Does that mean we have little money left, or we do have money, but Sir Alex ferguson thinks that he's worth below 5m.
Expect a swap deal for Berbatov and Dembele next week, Given the situation with Dempsey Fulham need some quality up front.
You have to go in with a low bid first, which obviously gets rejected, then Dembele may start saying he wants the move so a compromise would be the best solution....
His true value is apparantly Ł13 million according to some tabloids so maybe he could be bought for 9/10million which souds reasonable....
HERBIE
Dempsey was never a striker for Fulham, he played left wing.

So Henriquez will play for Manchester United THIS season? Shows just how highly he is rated!
G.A.G.U.S
17 Aug 2012 18:58:54
How accurate are the allegid £40 million figure from Bolingbrooke? If they are accurate then we have spent £40.5 million (including Henriquez). We have recouped £5.7 million which could add up to around £11-12 million after the sale of Berbatov. Ideally we could of signed Alba for left back, however he is no longer an option, so where do we go from here? A list of potential left backs:
- Bryan Oveido £6 million
- Emilio Izaguirre £6-8 million
- Leighton Baines £15 million
- Aly Cissokho £7 million
- Davide Santon £5 million
- Alvaro Perreira £10 million
- Naxcho Monreal £5 million
- Guilherme Siquiera £6 million
They are the best (potentiall) available left backs out there. Although I doubt Baines is available, and he is probably out of price range now. My personal choice is Guilherme Siquiera, he excelled in Spain and by all accounts out shone Alba - he even got into the La Liga best XI ahead of Alba. He's 26 so is a good, mature age and is very quick. Personally, Siquiera is my choice.
RedDevil19
I would prefer to see us sign a central mid than an LB. A tough tackler. Think we could make do with Evra for one more season if we have Rio and Vidic fit
17 Aug 2012 18:35:59
Heard on the radio that a bid of less than £5 million has been rejected by Fulham for Dembele. Can anyone or Eds tell me what his attributes are? But he looks a good match upto Yaya Toure. Although, I would prefer Witsel or Strootman.
Have you even watched Witsel play? I haven't seen much of him but the majority of people on here don't seem to rate him

Ferguson to a private reporter that is MUTV. "We are looking at 1 more player if they are availabe"
To the world press/Newspapers. "No more signings"
To me this suggests that Sir Alex is hiding a deal from the world media as he wants to keep it quiet to keep the likes of City,Chelsea,PSG away from our deals. Personally think it's Witsel but reports suggesting they have made a real interest know for a Spanish player. The only one I can think of us being available at a reasonable price for us.
Would be happy with either Witsel or Isco but would prefer Witsel as we need him more than the other

The only one I could think of is Isco... Forgot to put that in there

Just looking at RVP interview, it is so exciting to have a Player of his calibre here. Very intelligent football with great skill and leadership quality.
And he said he choose 20 because he wants man utd to get the 20th Premier league title this year!! Obviously the guy is raring to go. He just needs to keep fit, hopefully with the rotation going around. It can be achieved. If he just stay fit, I am sure he can have great impact as a team, as a striker and a mentor to our young strikers who can learn a lot from him!
Red Samurai
Nicely put, I agree. Was good to see him in the press conference having gone through months of 'will he won't he'. I'm excited now!

It was nice to see him so full of enthusiasm, he clearly was delighted to be a united player.

Just because I am a bit of a Pedant, I feel the need to point out that Shinji Kagawa is not and has never been the German Footballer of the Year.
The current incumbent of that particular title is the player Dortmund signed to replace him, Marco Reus.
Personally I think Kagawa will have more of an impact on the league than many give him credit for. He's a wonderful footballer, incisive direct and quick.
I'd have him over Hazard any day. {Ed007's Note - We've been through this before. It seems there are different versions of POTY, just like England, and Kagawa did win one of them.}
Kagawa was declared player of the year by a uk based site bundesligafootball ( which is not the official bundesliga site) under the headline " Shinji Kagawa will claim the inaugural Bundesliga Football Player of the Year award after winning a majority of the votes as selected by our readers and listeners. "
Bundesliga player of the year according to their official site was Robert Lewandowski. Bundesliga Young player of the year was Marco Reus. Please do check and confirm, before you make an argument to suggest otherwise.
silv3rzz ;)
You are all wrong, even you Bond. Kagawa was the official Player of the Year last year in Germany. You should know this, it isn't hard to find out. {Ed007's Note - I'm can't be ar$ed looking it all up again, all I said was that someone he won a version of it. Whether it is an official award is neither here nor there, it's official to who awarded it to him.}
17 Aug 2012 15:34:35
Something I have been pondering about... RVP has recently turned 29 and we paid (according to reports, correct me if i'm wrong) £24million for him, with a wage of £225k a week. As i said correct me if i'm wrong please.
But last season we where apparently interested in a then 27 nearly 28 year old Wesley Sneijder for about £25/£30million and roughly the same wages... but we apparently missed out on him due to these wage demands and the price tag for a player of his age.
This has got me thinking, where we ever in for him? and if so why didn't we pay this money for him? In my opinion he is/was a more needed signing than RVP.
Any thoughts?
1993
Well, SAF did say that we were never interested in Sneijder...
RedDevil19
I don't think he is on 225K a week more like 160k a week and i agree about WS
Reddevilfan
Can you not see a difference between the two players?
RVP has premier league experience and should be in instant hit, the fee is actually nowhere near as much as Inter were demanding for Sneijder and he was holding the club to ransom even though he has no experience in the premier league and could have taken time to adapt.
GDS
Big Difference is RVP had many options and never looked past United. Desire and Ability both important to Sir Alex. WS in the same bracket as Hazard, Tevez, Moura ie. MGW's
Dont believe everthing you read in the paper id imagine its more like 160 basic with add ons bringing it up
cantonas legal team
Van persie is proven in the premier league, sneijder is not necessarily. Id take van persie over sneijder any day of the week. He was teh player of the year lat year, sneijder was not, and he was injured most of the year. So if we weren't interested in him then that is fine by me.
Daniel
Well, Fergie did make it known we only go for players who are ready to come to our side purely for footballing reasons. Van Persie clearly made it known he wanted United move,didn't he? Unlike those that were demanding to be paid certain amounts.
We definitely were trying for Sneijder last year. There is no way Fergie would have lost his rag the way he did with Bob Cass over his story about Sneijder's wage demands if we weren't.
17 Aug 2012 13:55:27
Edds: what do you think the chances are of united putting together a seriouse bid for witsel in this window. i know you feel we will bid for him but do you believe we will get him this window. he looks a class act must say. i like yaya for city but this witsel looks better player he strong good passer eye for goal pacey and keeps things simple realy hope we get him if we do then the title is coming back home.
p.s please give me your view would realy be appreciated.
Cheers {Ed002's Note - I have said I expect that they will.}
I have a feeling ed002 knows something about this transfer. I really hope we make a bid and sign this kid. It will be the perfect end to this summer transfer window. T45
Witsel is good but he is not better than Yaya right now.
MU93
Bit of an age difference my friend I'm sure he will be twice the player.
Bp
Would love Witsel, but find it unlikely we will spend 25m or there abouts. 12m for Dembale seems more probable and he is terribly underrated.
Still think our midfield looks weak. We've a potent strike force, a crowd of top defenders and a string of wingers, but unless Petrucci or Tunnicliffe really excede there rate of development, our midfield looks old, average and injury prone. Witsel would really help make us a total unit. Of course RVP and Wayne can play midfield, but think we'll play 4-2-3-1. It's the two deeper midfielder that are the worry, the 3 more forward looking midfielders will be Wayne, Kagawa and Nani/Valencia, with Welbeck, Henriquez, Young etc fitting in neatly. With Henriquez arriving, I think Hernandez could raise us 10m or so towards Witsel.

17 Aug 2012 13:18:11
Ferguson revealed he was still looking at a new signing for “one more position” but “only if a certain player came available”.
Has fergie actually said this, if so anybody know who it could be. i would have thought one of baines or witsel.
In my opinion i would of thought we needed to look at two positions, LB & CM but from what fergie seems to have said we are only looking at one position and if im correct he has previously stated LB is a position he needs to look at.
Syd or any of the eds care to share their views. cheers
Trickee
I think he means Witsel, the Baines deal is dead in the water apparently.
Sydney!
I didn't know he's said that tbh - if so I would agree, Witsel most likely IMO, next most likely Baines
Gav
17 Aug 2012 13:38:12
Just saw SAF interview notes, he is definitely hinting to one more possible signing. He also says if the player becomes available which is quite interesting. I am inclined to believe it is a midfielder and not the LB. The Eds believe that it is Witsel, how about Muniain or believe it or not Wesley Sneider?
That one more signing could be Angelo Henriquez........remember he passed the medical, but hasn't been official signed by United yet.
Really?? SAF is not interested in Sneider! His name was pasted around last summer as a replacement for Scholes but since his form last season was patchy to say the least, he's been ruled out (plus the wage demands). It's going to be Witsel or Javi Martinez if SAF can hijack the deal last minute.
Red of the balls
As we have put in a tiny bid for Dembale it is him, or Witsel. Evans, or even Jones will be used at left back if Evra is injured.

Russian champions Zenit St Petersburg have made a bid for Manchester United winger Nani, according to reports in Russia.
jred
A double deal for Nani & Berbatov? Ł30m+?
Witsel to come in?
What do you think Jred mate?
Sydney!
If we accept it it will be a disaster.
RedDevil19
It sounds like we will only make one more signing , i think it would be a lb.
if nani leaves i think we will sign a cm, i think kagawa may get the nani role
jred
You're not far off Syd, but SAF woul not now consider selling Nani in this window as it would leave us vulnerable to either missing out or overpaying for either Rodriguez or Gaitan. The enquiry came off the back of a firm offer for Berbarov of Ł5m. We want eight, likely to settle for six.
I think Ł35million for the pair then sign Witsel and Isco.

17 Aug 2012 09:24:19
Can any of the Ed's shed some light on the CM situation, I believe we are in for another CM player, a few stories going about but not sure whether the 'real' focus is on Witsel / De Marcos / Strootman?
I personally hope for either Witsel or Strootman to complete our midfield only because Martinez seems to be out of our reach………. I am absolutely delighted with our attacking options, we have acquired the German and English league players of the year and also added Nick Powell who I personally think will be a gem!!
I would be more than happy with our current squad if Fletcher was fit but sadly I think he's got another season out (As good as it was to see him back on Tuesday night) which means Carrick will remain in that role……. I am not going to slate the lad as he does have good passing ability but he is slow and doesn't command his area as well as others!
Anyway, heres to another season and I firmly believe whatever happens Fergie will grab us that 20th.....
Ren {Ed002's Note - I have explained that I expect Witsel is the favoured target.}
16 Aug 2012 23:10:25
Hi, im not a United fan but after signing RVP and Kagawa (who SAF says is an attacker) do you know what will happen to Hernandez ED, he's a great little player and with the players Untied have got in and that Welbeck seem to be ahead of him, i was wondering if he might want to leave? {Ed002's Note - He will stay as a squad member. Berbatov will leave.}
16 Aug 2012 19:06:41
To ed002 you have said that we are seriously interested in witsel, so I want to ask you do you think he will be a unite player by September the first and have we enquired for him? Great player.
Caolán. {Ed002's Note - I really don't know.}
17 Aug 2012 12:05:58
i take it that berbatov must have a few offers from clubs and will be sold very soon as SAF didnt mention his name in the press conference when he said about the strikers he had in 1999 and who he has now
17 Aug 2012 12:01:09
In the pic of RVP and SAF , RVP is wearing a training shirt with 31 on it this could just be his squad number not shirt number
Warrington red
Training kit numbers arnt always the same as squad numbers......... I think no9
CAIN
I agree its probs not his shirt No. as in the slideshow on the club website evans has 35 on his top, should be 6
maybe just a spare top and they'll sort out his kit for next time
People wear random training shirt numbers all the time. I wouldn't read too much into it.
RedDevil19
He most probably would get 9 when Berba leaves. Usually during training they do not wear their numbers.
Lee
Shirt number is 20
17 Aug 2012 11:57:42
Listening to Fergie and he says only one more player maybe, but only if they become available.
Maybe i'm thinking to much in to it but I think it will be a midfielder and I personally think its Axel Witsel. Man Utd have made an enquiry and the Ed's seem to think that the interest is high and maybe increasing. The enquiry was made and asked the question would he be available for this price (not sure what price was asked about)
A positive response will see a bid be made but apart from that, summer spending is over.
RedKnight
Henriquez ? isnt he going to be the other signing mate just a thought maybe he is who he was talking about ?
Coombesy
I think it is likely to be a left back because we have already spent the alleged Ł40 million. We will get around Ł6 million for Berbatov which we can reinvest. I'd say a left back will be brough, bought certainly no left back over Ł10 million...
RedDevil19
If we get alex witsel i promise everyone barring seriouse injurys our trophy will becoming home to ot.

Sorry but thats utter rubbish. He was available for Ł7M up to the 31st of July so why on earth would we be looking at him now
Not tiote mate that was the their forward. Name escapes me. Anyway no way we would pay that kind of money for him. Might as well add another 8 million and you can get some of the best midfielders out there
17 Aug 2012 11:14:48
Rumours that Witsel is on his way to united not sure about the fee but its a very strong source. He will be a great addition to the team and the final piece. That unless Sir Alax buys a left back before transfer season closes.

On the midfield issue, what's everyone's opinion on Cleverley? I am one of the people who rate him highly and think he's got great potential, whereas others think he will never be the answer and will never be good enough. I just wanted to see what others thought of him as the deep lying playmaker? If it now looks like Rooney and RVP will play together up top. I've been impressed by Cleverley immensely playing in that deeper role at the Olympics, in pre-season and in the recent England friendly (albeit further forward). Before anyone starts I still think we need to sign a CM, I just wondering if perhaps Fergie is trying to mould him into this role eventually. He has great attributes for it, good energy, puts himself about, always trying to make himself available and always looking to be an outlet for the defence.
Thoughts welcome.
APC
Class player with immense potential. Just needs an injury-free season.
Sydney!
I used to think Cleverly was a decent central midfielder that did the simple things well, would become a reliable player but not a special one. Have to say mroe I have seen of him more I am impressed. He does all the above but it is his awareness and speed of thought which is changing my view. Looks like he can play deep lying or further up field from his England debut. Could be a great team player, I am excited and hopeful him and Anderson can stay injury free and get a run together over the season as this is a partner ship that could be quite special, we saw glimpses of it the start of last season before the injuries came to both
Invisible STuey
Completely agree with Sydney! I also think it may be worth looking at him as more of a box-2-box midfielder due to is energy and attitude,whilst still retaining a lot of creative influence as well
Jaxer
Loads of potential, if he stays fit he will be a top CM imo. Played well for Wigan, great for us before his injury, great for team GB and good for England the other night. Don't see why that can't continue! I'd love to see him long term partnered with a player like Witsel, so he's left free to get on the ball, pickout teamates and set the tempo
Gav
If he was 19 or 20 I'd think he's be great. However at 23 he is average to good. If he was sold he'd be in the 10-15m area. Syd you over-rate him to the nth degree, could you in all sincerity see a top CL team coming in for him, if he was made available?

Negative people on here spreading rumours that van Persie deal off due to not agreeing terms is RUBBISH. There's no way fergie will let this deal slip over personal terms .. Also no way van Persie can go back to arsenal .. Expect deal to be confirmed tonorrow ..
More than likely Arsenal or Liverpool fans. Isn't there a press conference tomorrow? fully expect the announcement will be our new signings
Plus Man United and their website would not start doing interviews about rvp if they know he hasnt agreed personal terms, as he could disagree, and our entire club would be humiliated
I would imagine personal terms were sorted with RVP's agent before the deal was sorted with Arsenal.
Terms would have been agreed through agent before United reached areement over fee with Arsenal .
RVP is now a United player, signed on a 4 year deal - official
Lol he has signed
