How would ppl feel about a move for sandro? Real steal in CM!
Chris the REDman

Anyone is better then the current options

Tacticalyinept

I would love it, i feel he is the best option to add that bite to our midfield.

He is a real class player who is proven in the prem and would be attainable for a price.

Shappy

I wouldnt mind Sandro, Khedira, L.Bender, Tiote, Biglia, Herrera or M'Villa.

No chance without levvy wanting top top dollar good player with a big heart loved it last week when he went through toure for a header didnt pull out of the challenge and toure came of second best

I was just going through the german players who played under saf and the numbers astounded me. i could only find Ron Robert Zieler. Considering the good amount of talented german players in the last few decades its really surprising to know this. is there a reason for this ?

But still there have been players who have played in england for other clubs ballack for chelsea lehmann metresacker for arsenal klinsmann for totenham etc.. ozil and khedira play in spain and considering we were in need of someone like ozil. {Ed007's Note - That's why I said in general. Look at English players, very few of them move abroad and if they do they usually stay for a couple of seasons then come back to England. I'd say the reason for that though is that the majority of English players aren't as technically as good as players brought through in Spain, Italy or Germany. For me personally, the Bundesliga is the best league in the world. I have been over for a few St Pauli games and have been interested in Borussia Dortmund since Murdo MacLeod left Celtic to go there years ago. Perhaps the players are happy where they are, English football isn't the be all and end all, whatever S*y would have you believe.}

Fergie doesn't like germans.. did you not see his interview when we lost to bayern..

Markus Neumayr(spelling?).

Was a reserve in the Pique and Rossi era. Didn't make the grade or even look like he would but next time you're trying to think of Germans that have been at United you'll have one more!

My PE teacher reckons United already have a deal struck to bring Jose and Ronaldo to United in the summer, don't have a clue if it's true all I know is he's a season ticket holder because his brother works at OT doing the tours!

Lol maybe he used to work at Old Trafford doing the tours if this is true. I don't think it is wise to name sources mate.

Darren-Bermuda

Yeh you dont want to get him in trouble! Still there could be some truth in it. I would like to have a youth and family friendly sort of coach but Mourinho is a winner and that is what matters most. If he brings Ronaldo then its definitely worth it!

Doubt it mate, but we can all dream

Hi peeps,just read on a dutch & english sports website that man utd & psv have agreed on a pre contract agreement to sign kevin strootman.psv are app trying to sign swedish player oscar hiljemark as strootmans replacement.hope this is true,any views ED...
-JEB- {Ed002's Note - PSV are chasing Hiljemark and there is certainly interest in Strootman moving to Old Trafford. Manchester United and Liverpool took a look at Kevin Strootman last season but tentative enquiries were met by a reluctance to sell so soon after arriving. His performances have attracted further interest from Manchester United, Valencia, AC Milan, Schalke 04 and Hamburg. I expect him to move to Manchester United or Milan in the summer.}

Would love strootman to sign for us i think we are all in agreement that we need a new cm or two strootman ticks all the boxes although i beleave there is half a dozen good young box to box cm out there that are well within our reach some that would cost a lot and others that will cost very little i think there could should and will be a move made for strootman should imaginge having rvp would give us a inside track on how good he is and having two dutch players here already will make the transition smooth lets hope these rumors have some truth behind them Katef

Surely if we bring in Strootman then that spells the end for Ando? They styles are pretty much identical.

I'd say so, he's shown plenty of potential at times but the fact is, his injuries and form have meant he's never reached the level he should have by now. His fitness is a huge issue, how can he expect to play regularly when he can only last for 70 mins or so, it just doesn't work. If we can recoup £10m or so and put that towards Strootman it'd be good business.

I'd rather have Cirigliano tbh. He will be cheaper as well
