So the sure thing looks like De Gea.
The probable signing looks like Varane.
The possible signing sounds like Young.
The wishful signing would be Modric.
The woeful signing would be Snijder.

Ed. Any truth in these Nasri rumours? {Ed007's Note - I said earlier that as far as I know AW has stated if Nasri and Clichy haven't signed new contracts by the start of pre-season they will be sold. There is some talk that he has already decided he wants to move to OT, it's up to Arsenal if they will sell to us and if AF does actually want him}

For the same reason that you would put him under pressure with his manager and team mates, presumably. Smell the coffee, son.

It's me from the Rooney to Madrid news that I broke earlier and for those who think I'm untustworthy just wait and see the news next week ( obviously waiting till after the champions league final) that Wayne wants to leave the red devils and only signed the contract so united and Wayne both get the best deal possible. Come on think satin he wants to leav and then a sudden u-turn he only stayed to help utd to win the league and gve something back to the fans who he respects and loves. We just need to respect his decision and get a lot of money for him to get sneijder and an other striker Wayne tells me this could pato of Milan or aguero as sir alex is impressed with his performances this season and that wonderful hat-trick he scored on Saturday

i work for the NLP (non league paper and we have close connection to the major papers such as the sun, mirror ect.
Bruno Martins Indi a young defender aged 19 for Feyenoord is supposedly a target for sir alex ferguson and will cost around 4 million rising to 6 million. a dutch under 21 international. highly rated in holland. come on united! {Ed007's Note - Fits in with what I said earlier about AF signing quality, young prospects. I think it could be to do with the FFP rules coming in, we will have players in their early 20s who if they aren't going to make it at Utd they will have a value and bring money in. Don't quote me on that though}

Sorry guys bad news
I am Wayne's (Rooney) cousin and I spoke to him on Monday morning to wish him good luck before the champions league final and he told me that he was adamant on leaving old Trafford for the bernabeau talks are on going with united since march. He also told me that united are holding out for 65 mill but real only want to pay 45-50 mill so might get aguero who would cost 40-45 mill. But those noisy neighbours are more than willing to pay the asking price to replace the inter-bound tevez

Manchester United are yet to make an offer for Inter Milan midfielder Wesley Sneijder, according to his agent.
The Daily Mail recently reported that the £30m deal will go through providing United s owners, the Glazer family, agree to bankroll the deal, with Sneijder reportedly on £10m a year at the San Siro and wanting a five-year contract to agree to move to the Premier League champions.

Fergie confirms De Gea deal


Manchester United have confirmed they are close to signing Atletico Madrid goalkeeper David De Gea.
Manager Sir Alex Ferguson has identified the 20-year-old keeper as his preferred successor to the retiring Edwin van der Sar.
"We've been working on it [De Gea transfer] for quite a while. We identified him quite a while back as one we should go for, " Ferguson told the club's official website after Gary Neville's testimonial tonight.
"He's a young goalkeeper, very quick, good composure, presence and an outstanding replacement for Van der Sar.
"We were looking for the same type of qualities as Edwin, because the one great quality Edwin always had was his composure and organisational ability.
"With David De Gea, he is very similar that way."
De Gea made 45 appearances for Atletico this season, keeping 24 clean sheets.
He helped the capital club win the Europa League last term, although he is still to win his first senior cap for Spain.
United had been linked with Schalke keeper Manuel Neuer, but the Germany international had made clear his desire to stay in his homeland.
Responding to the news United were closing in on De Gea, Atletico president Enrique Cerezo told Spanish radio station Cadena Ser: "We don't know anything. Officially neither Manchester (United) or the player at this moment have informed us of anything.
"He (De Gea) knows very well that he can negotiate (with other clubs) but always that they have to pay his buy-out clause."
Atletico, who finished this season in seventh spot in the Primera Division, had been keen to tie De Gea down to a new contract with his current one running until 2013.
Recently, Madrid-born De Gea, whose contract buy-out clause is reportedly in the region of 25 millions euros (£22million), said he would make a decision about his future by the end of June.

{Ed001's Note - hard to say, tribal football just regurgitate stories collated off other websites and newspapers. You would need to know the source to find out if it was likely, but there has been some contact between Real Madrid and United recently I have been told. It was round the time the Ronaldo return rumours flew about, so I think someone got the wrong end of the stick there because it was definitely not about him I have been told.}

@Come on Ed, you cannot leave it at that. What have you heard?

Sydney! {Ed001's Note - I was told Benzema and Diarra, but Madrid asked for Rooney in return. That is what I was told, the reply could be complete nonsense but I am assured those are the players you asked about.}

@I believe that is exactly what RM would reply. With Hargreaves retiring Lass maybe an option, although I think SAF would prefer to stay clear of him. However Benzema is a very likely target as we are looking at strikers (Aguero) and it will be the end for Dimi.

Of course Fergie would welcome him back anytime, why wouldn't he! ! Fergie stated this when he left, so it ain't any different 2 years later!
Anyway on to realistic stuff - De Gea done (we all know this), and Ashley Young in advanced stages I'm being told, which in all honesty I'm not happy about!

The Metro reports that Inter and Juventus are planning a summer swoop for Manchester United s Nani.

Both Inter and Juventus are keen on the 24-year old, but it s the Turin giants who are set to make the first move. A bid in the region of £27million may be enough to prize the Portuguese winger away from Old Trafford.
But expect nani to be used as bait for Sneijder

Hi Guys
A few weeks ago people on here were saying that United were closing in on Sergio Aguerro but the sticking point was his wages.So why is it that now he has come out and said he wants to leave are we not being linked with him and some people coming on here and saying its a done deal and so on.
Personally I would love Aguerro to come to United, I don't think he will but it would be great.

ALEX FERGUSON has opened the door for Cristiano Ronaldo to make a sensational Old Trafford return.
Fergie has confided in close friend and Italian World Cup-winning boss Marcello Lippi that Ronaldo would be welcome back at Manchester United.

Ronaldo forced through an £80million transfer from United to Real Madrid in the summer of 2009. But Lippi said: "Sir Alex told me he would take Ronaldo back tomorrow.

"We both think he is an extraordinary striker who can start on either wing, or as the sole striker and perform brilliantly.

"But the truly remarkable thing about Cristiano is that he ALWAYS scores."

Ronaldo has enjoyed a great season breaking the all-time La Liga record with 40 goals. He hit 51 in all, a Real record.

But his relationship with manager Jose Mourinho has been strained and he admits he misses Ferguson and life at Old Trafford.

To the guy who posted "Utd will be signing another spanish wonderkid aswell as david de gea. .
Sergio canales will sign from real madrid at a cut price 10m after falling down the madrid pecking order with such talented attacing midfeilders ahead of him.SAF also feels he would help de gea settle as they have played in many youth teams together.

In
De gea
Varne
Young
Canales
Sneijder"This not only looks practically possible but is also a good set of signings

MUMBAI_BOY {Ed002's Note - I rather expect Canales to go to Villareal if sold. Possibly on loan with an option to buy. Arsenal and Manchester City enquired. I suspect that the player has no interest in either a loan move or a move away from Spain. This may drag on for a while.}
