Id personaly think all the names mentioned i.e nasri, modric, snjeder just a smoke screen for players we are really in talks with. Aguero will be playing alongside rooney next season .

O'Shea is a ManU legend and one of SAF's favourite and most useful players.He's played RB, LB, CB, CM, CDM and even played GK once.I don't think he should or will be sold.What do you think ed, sydney? {Ed004's Note - I doubt he will be sold}

I'm hearing United have had a bid accepted for Luka Modric, Fee in the region of 28 million with add ons, Modric has made it clear to Tottenham that that he wants to move on.

Appears Sunderland are after literally any of are players. I'm hearing they have made a 15 million pounds offer for Danny Welbeck along with Gibbo, O'Shea & Wesley (combined 13 million) Although i'm told Wesley will be going to Everton & Fergie has left the decision up to O'Shea wether or not he decides to go!

PSG are stepping up their persuit of Berba & have made a 12.5 million pounds offer.

Alternatives to David De Gea are being looked at due to mixed messages coming from him & his people, although he is still favourite to be United's number 1 next season.

Owen Hargreaves will start training with Arsenal in July in an attempt to win a deal with them.

Not a clue on the Sanchez scenario, although in my opinion if it means Nani leaving, i'd rather us not bother with him.

Nasri & Sneijder still being looked at & have been advised that Nari is willing to put in a transfer request but only if United step up their interest & make Arsenal a serious offer.

Many Thanks - Over & Out

Sydney you said that EVANS will replace O'SHEA as the one who plays across the back four...

But you are forgetting that SAF uses O'SHEA in champions League and games against teams which have tall players....

O'SHEA does a good defensive job against teams with tall and sturdy players and i really doubt EVANS would be able to do that job coz as it is his heading is not that great....

And BTW, is O"SHEA leaving for sure, ED?

Hi ed, do you think there may be an agreement of sorts between united, city and Chelsea that they won't bid for certain players I.e we will be free to sign sneijder, Chelsea to sign modric and city for sanchez and there won't be counter bids from the rival clubs? That way everyone is 'happy'. {Ed002's Note - Such agreements exist between certain clubs but I fear there are none between the clubs you mention.}

Believable12 Unbelievable5

17 Jun 2011 17:58:25
Ed, what is going on?! Why would we even think about selling nani! He has been easily been our best winger (including antonio)

Also, Ed, please give me some good news on Modric. Will he go to Chelsea? I couldn't STAND him out in ANYTHING other than a United shirt next season.

Also, what is syd? {Ed002's Note - I was the one who originally suggested Nani would leave. Modric, I don't know anything more than has been written. A Syd is a fantastic mythical creature - like a unicorn.}

All this talk about 3 big buys is nonsense! our summer signings will be/are: Jones, Young, de Gea and possibly Sneijder. if this is the case then Nani will leave as Young signs, resulting in free funds for a deal with Sneijder. Modric will either stay at Spurs or go to Chelsea.

Few bits of info:

Nasri deal not happenning - just using united to get big contract at arsenal.

City are now interested in de rossi, so unlikely united will compete with big money offers.

Modric prefers united instead of chelski as he knows he'll get more time on pitch.

Sanchez deal - who knows wots going on!

Varanne looking to go to madrid cos of zidane connectioions etc

Apparantly my source says that if sanchez deal dont happen united will go for hazard with big bid to get it done quick.

thats all for now...

all this talk of Verane....is he not a defender? why are we chasing another defender when clearly the midfield is what needs strengthened!

If fergie does not buy 2 real quality midfielders then cant see us getting title number 20 tbh and wont get close to barca again.

are we def going to buy a CM ed? {Ed002's Note - Probably.}

Modric bid accepted apparently?! Nothing 100% confirmed - but looking at other comments below, seems my source may be right!

My source said around 29m potentially rising to 33m. Who knows lol. I'd love to see him at United though.

According to reports on Twitter Manchester City on verge of Signing Alexis Sanchez. United never interested just used to bump up the fee by Udinese.

This is absolute rubbish. According to one of mancini's backroom staff city are working on the deal and he said this two hours ago and sanchez will not sign for city as he is a united fan

the guy who said on twitter that sanchez is close to joing city dont have a clue although he claims to be 'in the know'..he knows nothing to be honest..on twitter, look how he changed his words from 'United do not want Sanchez' to 'United have fleeting interest'..plus this is the guy who said he was 100% sure Jones would join Liverpool..
i think we still have a fair chance to sign sanchez..

Is it true that Sanchez now only needs to choose from us, Barca, Juve, City and Inter? If yes, and since he had agreed to 3M Euros a year with Barca and is supposedly a United fan.. would we not be able to provide him with an acceptable wage package? (Not not the best as am sure City and maybe even Juve could top that?) Personally, even if we get just one quality box to box style midfielder (Sissoko or Martinez please!!) and this guy, along with the additions of Jones, De Gea, Cleverley and Welbeck / Macheda.. I think we would have had a pretty decent window since I think the bunch of youngsters we currently have would really be a handul in the next 2 years or so!

Also, have we lost interest in Nasri now? Any idea?

HARRY REDKNAPP last night told Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City that Luka Modric is not for sale at ANY price.

while Manchester City are preparing to table a bid for Tottenham's Luka Modric after Harry Redknapp branded Chelsea's £22million offer 'ridiculous'. The Spurs boss echoed his chairman by insisting the Croatia midfielder is not for sale.

Am I the only one who thinks that Mata from Valencia would be a great signing, imo a better player than Silva (hate to say it but he is quality) and is still only about 20, what do you think Ed {Ed002's Note - Sure, he is a good player.}

I wondered if gill's part in the jones deal is bittersweet. On the one side he's signed a great player for SAF and utd but on the flip side he's pretty much doing away with any chance of his son playing regularly for us in the future. Can gill jnr play anywhere else other the CB? Ed is varane still in the cards?roland {Ed002's Note - Varane is still on the cards I believe.}
