Got some updates alexis sanchez saga just been told utd are not out of race he told me city have offered 30m which is 3m more than utd and that Barcelona can not go higher because that extra money is put aside for fabragas deal the player as said before would be happy to join Barcelona or Manchester United will join us or Barcelona he told me that utd are not willing go higher than 27m so unless Barcelona match united's offer he will still join us he said the papers might report on it tomorrow.

>>Literally translated it means Barca freezes, City offer. So, it actually means that talks with Barca have broken down and City are in pole position :(

Please can people stop saying that Sanchez might still come! He is primarily a winger and we have nani, young, park, giggs and Valencia now fergie isn't stupid enough to have 6 players who are competing for 2 places! Let's be realistic we are going for a proven European playmaker! That will conclude the summer along with young, de gea and jones! What a great transfer window, well played fergie!

We should really try for Shaqiri of the Swiss U-21 team. He has played amazing in the game against the Czech Republic. Looks like he could be a good investment and a solid midfielder as hes played in the middle during this game.

just heard on the radio there might be some substance to the sanchez to city rumours.

I would be gutted if he chooses city over, barca and us to go to them, no true united fan would do this and he would have gone purely for the money cos city won't win anything next season.

I hope Sanshine is right with the post regarding Ever Banega, as he could be absolutely what we need against the bigger teams in terms of a holding midfielder.

I have also heard that a bid is being prepared for Pastore which would provide a much needed creative boost.

Nani and Berbatov are to be sold, Nani for £25-30 million to Juventus or Inter and Berbatov to PSG for £11 million.

i think all the talk of sneijder is mad because he is unproven in the premiership and the wages he is reportedly demanding are ridiculous. I think we should have a look at Steven Defour from standard liege as fergie already has shown interest and we could get him for a quater of the price we would pay for sneijder and at 23 he would be a good investment what u think Ed??? {Ed004's Note - Sneijder is a far better player}

It seems Real Madrid have signed Raphael Varane, this is a big blow as he is going to be a top class CB. Luckily we have Smalling, but still a big blow.

----------------------------------------
I thought their chairman had turned down all bids from overseas clubs? All sounds very odd to me. Bids accepted, then turned down. Surely if the bids acceptable its up to the player where he goes?

Believable14 Unbelievable8

seems varane would be joining madrid maybe its cos zidane went to see him( might have been flattered by his reputation) but when would young players see that madrid is not really a place for youngsters canales highly rated could barely get up to 7 appearances since his transfer....Good luck varane whichever club you choose

{Ed019's Note - Not particularly disappointed if true, if anything I feel a bit sorry for him going to Madrid. He should have accepted PSG's offer and could have developed alongside Sakho. United already have Evans, Smalling and Jones with players like Tom Thorpe on the horizon. Should be set for centre backs for the next ten years.

22 Jun 2011 12:54:41
We do not need Diarra, we already have Fletcher, Carrick and now Jones who can do that DM job! We need a creative midfielder like Nasri, Modric or Sneidjer. I personally think Nasri would be perfect for us and would go all out to get him. Make Arsenal an offer they can't refuse i.e 30 mill

What u think Ed?

{Ed019's Note - I agree United seem to have enough defensive midfielders, however if Diarra is available on the cheap he could still be a good addition. I like Nasri but I'm still not sure if he's just using United to get a better deal at Arsenal or if he's seriously interested.

Looks like yet another twist in the Sanchez saga. Although he has been released by chile to sign his contract jeffren has come out publicly to say he's not interested in a move to udinese and will snub any offer they make.

Reports in Italy suggest this has alerted the mercenaries at wastelands who have acted fast abd tabled a 35m cash offer and udinese are trying to push this offer on to the lad.

It's also reported united are not willing to match the offer made by city.

since barca pretty much have sanchez . . would we not just keep nani ? . . or even forget about bale and turn our attention to another spurs winger maybe aaron lennon , any thoughts ed ?

{Ed019's Note - Well considering we more than likely have Ashley Young coming in I don't think United need another winger. Any interest on United's part would probably be down to the fact that Sanchez was too much of a talent to try not to sign. If he ends up going to Barca I reckon United will just concentrate on buying a midfielder.

can any of the ed's tell me have United any interest in shaqiri been watchin him thru the u21's looks like hes going to be a special player ino that united like to bring young player's to the club
thanks ...

{Ed019's Note - As with any young talent there have been numerous links with Shaquiri, however we all know SAF likes to keep his cards close to his chest so at the moment we have no way of knowing whether there is any genuine interest. However you can be almost certain that United are keeping tabs on him and he's also a player that probably wouldn't break the bank either.

Believable9 Unbelievable1

22 Jun 2011 12:27:47
With all the talk of on here on Rooney playing deeper if our midfield targets run dry I think we should put a cheeky 10 mill bid in for Sturridge, that's more than they paid city paid.
And with more strikers at Chelsea than you could shake a stick at and I'm sure AVB will have his own ideas who he wants in too, it may be the ideal time to secure him

I really would love to see rooney play as a center mid/ attacking mid, not just because he would be good there but because there is a lot more value with strikers than midfielders atm...

if we could have sanchez for 40mil or higuian for 20 i know who i would choose.

same again for snjeider, him for 35mil or bezema for 20-25.

it is a simple choice but of course it depends on rooney wanting to do it.

or sign other good strikers,

Also i dont want players who dont want us!

With Ashley young, Jones and De Gea pretty much already signed. Sir Alex is after a central midfielder seeing as he has just lost scholes (hargreaves doesn't count). With Cleverly back in the squad, United are going after wesley sneijder and if that becomes unsuccesful will go for Diarra of real madrid as he has already proven himself at (you could say) 3 of the top teams in the world.

Eds, Syd, Matthew i want to know what would ye think of Fergie buying Juan Mata of Valencia, he's not overly priced and is still quite young and can play out wide or through the middle as an CAM, He offers great creativity, has Fergie shown any interest in him and Hazard as Wesley S wages are crazy for a 27 year old unproven in the league and Sanchez is Barca bound. Any news on Mata and or Hazard at all people???


Nababs Son :)

{Ed019's Note - There is very little linking United to either of the two, however thats how United like to do business so it doesn't mean they're not interested in those players. I think Mata would be more realistic this summer as Valencia are still in a poor state financially, both fantstic talents though.

I don't know how true this is but it appears Barca's negotiations with Udinese for Sanchez have come to an abrupt halt. It is believed that Jeffren does not want to leave for Udinese. Apparently City are very much in the race again for his signature again! Come on Gill, get back in the game you dognut!

{Ed019's Note - Could be true, or could be desperate United and City fans convincing themselves they still have a chance. Should find out in the coming day/s
