Seen a few reports today, that we are willing to meet the buyout clause for Koke, doubt it personally but eds have you heard anything? Cheers

{Ed004's Note - haven't heard anything but would be a fantastic buy. I think he is barca bound tho. He would add a lot of energy into midfield}

Great player and will be one of the best since he has his best years ahead of him.
Unfortunately, buy-out clauses don't mean anything these days.

Been reported that van gaal, has an a plan, a b plan and a c plan. the way things are heading with Woodward and signing players up to now, think van gaal will need a d plan. world cup is going to slow up many transfers. I think we are only going to be one league position higher than last season. manager comming in late again, as Moyes did. leaves now time to sign quality. hope I'm wrong but it look ominous. pains me too say it. RIP Malcolm

Can't see us getting Koke, not for the £40 odd million being quoted. Fabregas, Strootman, William Carvalho and Clasie are most likely in my opinion.

If that's true, I think he might have moved on to plan b or plan c on certain positions like MF or wingers.

A family friend of mine in Bavaria who has some media connections reckons that the Kroos deal will be on next year. Van Gaal believes that Clasie and other young players can get us back into Europe and improve a lot on the way, and then a couple of world class additions next summer when we are back in Europe. Seems like quite a sensible plan to me if this is the case.

What a load of rubbish, if kroos left his contract to run down he certainly wouldn't end up joining us. Barca and Real I imagine will be at the front of the queue to sign him. We should just forget about kroos instead of playing "my mate said this" "friend of a friend said that" nonsense.

420United,

I would suggest this site (and especially Fresh) isn't for you if you don't like nonsense like that!

{Ed002's Note - Maybe there will be interest from Kroos from elsewhere.}

I think Chelsea will sign him this window.

is inigo martinez on utd radar he is one hell of a centre half

The ed has said in the past that the price is scaring everyone off. But with their money issues they may be looking to sell one or two of their top names like Martinez, Griezmann or Vela.

Tell me about it! I've been going about him for ages!!! everytime sociedad have played he's impressed! still fairly young too, peak years ahead of him! rather him than miranda?!
