Is it true that West Ham have agreed terms with Nathaniel Clyne, I was hoping he was coming to us.
sparky {Ed002's Note - No but they are looking to do so - offering first team football is their selling point.}

Believable8 Unbelievable4

He would get a decent amount of games at United even if Rafael was fit for the entire season, but truth is Rafael will not be fit for the entire season so Clyne will get a lot of games IMO.

Sydney!

Agree0 Disagree0

Thanks Ed, do you know if we remain interested ?
sparky {Ed002's Note - I don't know of any drop in interest.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Right back is covered with rafael, smalling , jones and Valencia of we're short on numbers , would rather a youth player brought through than clyne bought

Dustbin

Agree0 Disagree0

Would be a real shame as we need natural competition for Rafael and on a free transfer Clyne's ideal as RB is not a position we can afford to spend much on. Hope we can still get him, like Syd said he would get plenty of games

Is mufc tv worth getting

Believable19 Unbelievable16

It is for the next two months as we will be playing preseason games in China, South Africa and in Sweden against Barcelona.

Sydney!

Agree0 Disagree0

Depends on the person, but for me, and every united fan I know, yes.. even if it is poorly produced at times.

If its just for Sir Alex,s uncut press conference late Friday night he's a genius,
You read all sorts of s**te all week then he makes fool of um all

Worth it purely for the Paddy Crerand Show

fearny

Agree0 Disagree0

Its ok for pre season and youth games but you will never hear ANYONE on MUTV say anything against United, or disagree with SAF or the United top brass. And if you phone in with negative comments you will not be allowed to answer back..You'll be cut off!! Waste of £6 a month IMO

Agree0 Disagree0

Its ok, but I use www.liveonlinefooty.com £27 per year. If you have more than a 3meg download you can watch in HD. Plus most of the PREM games + La Liga + Serie A + F1 GP
By plugging an HDMI cable into a PC or Laptop you can watch via your Flat Screen TV

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree with above, nothing negative allowed on MUTV the call in shows are disgraceful at times

Agree0 Disagree0

No name, you are talking utter nonsense. The club, manager, players and Glazers are criticised in every single 'call in' show and are not cut off. Emails are read out by the MUTV staff criticising something United on every show. Like Paddy, Lou, Stewart, Mandy etc all say it's people's opinion and they are entitled to their opinion.

Apparently we are looking at 3 more players not 2 as Fergie has also decided to let Anderson go,with Carrick also heading towards his twilight zone and Fletcher yet to fully recover and pulling out of Modric's deal due to unscrupulous Levy demands.....So SAF has set his sights on Jao Moutinho of Porto also wanted by Spurs,which my source also says this will prompt Levy to dance according to our tune and release Modric to us or risk losing Moutinho to us....,then SAF is looking at Baines and Izzaguire and a deal for one of these two is close though many think its Baines,Izzaguire maybe the one to come in due to price unless Everton ower their asking price.....,Lastly SAF is looking at between Fellaine and M'Villa to complete a compact midfield.......,Macheda has been handed a green leaf thus to prove his worth this season.......,and if Nani doesnt stay we may see the signing of either James Rodriguez or Moussa Dembele..........

Believable11 Unbelievable20

That was a good laugh

Agree0 Disagree0

Not a very constructive comment, but pure pants matey.

Pip

Agree0 Disagree0

Who do people insist on painting their fantasies as "insider information" and rumour?

BAck to Footy Manager for you i think no namer.

Bob

Agree0 Disagree0

Daniel Levy's reputation suggests he only dances to His tune lol.

I see Modric to Real as Levy does not want to seel to a Prem rival and Modric would prefer to go there.

As for Moutinho I think he may prefer a move to the bright lights of London if AVB get the Spurs job.

So....we'd lose out on both midfield targets :(

But ...Moutinho must see us as a better option for winning silverware surely so lets see what happens.

Just for this weekend forget the Glazers or City winning the league and Chelsea the European cup. I was at Heaton Park last night, i will be there tonight and tomorrow night. It was glorious and the reason Manchester is the greatest City in the world. We really have given you the Industrial revolution, the Computer , United and the greatest music in the world. All that we are missing is a beach. I AM KLOOT

Believable15 Unbelievable13

Yes manny is a great city but the best music is northern soul ? imo s**t i forgot about simplyred and m people

Agree0 Disagree0

Ha. Nice one

I didn't go myself but live next door, so sat on doorstep listening.
This Is The One......almost moved me to tears. :)

Same again tonight!

There is a beach in Castlefields.

Prefer to remember them in there prime i took my future wife to the gigg they did at the empress ballroom in blackpool in 1989.when they came on the lights went out and 1 light could be seen in the darkness just going up and down it was ian brown with an illuminated yoyo and then the lights went up and they burst into i wanna be adored brilliant night.

I'm there on Sunday. Shaking with excitment. The only thing that is stopping me from wetting my undies is the thought of having to watch plan B before hand.

Does anyone know what the first game of pre-season is? I want to get MUTV to watch the friendlies. I know we have the tour coming up but was wondering if anyone knows if theres's anything beforehand?

Also tomorrow the window opens and we officially welcome Kagawa and Powell as United players. Let's back them both and hope we start to see more action from United soon.

Anyway, tomorrow is the final of Euro 2012. In everyone's opinion who has been the worst commentator or co-commentator?

I'm going for either Martin Keown or the whole ITV team.

SK

Believable7 Unbelievable1

Andy "I'm Irish, honest" Townsend was pretty awful.
His bias towards England in commentary was laughable...for an Irishman, apparently.
Terrible punditry.

Aly

Agree0 Disagree0

Mark Bright for me absolutley useless! Townsend is awful as well. i think since Andy Gray was sacked we are sadly lacking a single good co-commentator on any of the channels. Gary Neville is great in the studio but not as good on the mic. Davie Provan's about the only other one i can handle listening to.

Andy B

Agree0 Disagree0

ITV has been so much better than the Bbc

Mike

Andy Gray was terrible. Football is better off without him and his overhyping of everything.

I don't understand why we are even interested in Baines? Is Baines going to replace Evra until Raphael is mature enough to become a starter? I don't think he would be best option.

Believable12 Unbelievable8

I agree.
I think you mean Fabio, Rafael is RB.
We should just keep Fabio and let him have a few more games.
Baines is a step backwards in quality without a doubt.
And hillariously over priced.

Bob

Agree0 Disagree0

Baines will probably push out Evra and give time for Tyler Blackett to gain experience imo

Pardoe

Agree0 Disagree0

The turtle? Or the right back?

Neither of them are going to be playing left back i'm afraid. If we sign Baines it is because he is younger than Evra and can defender better whilst also attacking and putting in one hell of a set piece. Would be a good signing.

P.s. I think you meant Fabio.

GDS

Agree0 Disagree0

I would rather stick with Evra that spend any money on Baines. He is neither young and promising nor top quality currently.

Pip

Agree0 Disagree0

Baines is top quality! He made the prem 11 that's proof enough and he's hitting his prime. We are a big enough club to buy players in their prime when necessary!

Agree0 Disagree0

Are you lot deluded baines isnt good enough he is already better than evra i pray baines stays with everton he has been the best left back in prem for 2 season now

Agree0 Disagree0

I wanted to keep Zeki Fryers but apparentley he's gonna be off to spurs on a free ...

Any chance of Neymar seeing that Barca and Real haven't got that much cash to spend, also Tiago Silva and Mesut Ozil? (maybe sell Rooney to afford them) {Ed002's Note - No.}

Believable5 Unbelievable23

What a berk!

Andy

Agree0 Disagree0

Was this one meant to be posted on the FIFA 12 forum?
Hallis

Agree0 Disagree0

Don't think Neymar is interested in premier league yet.

Thiago Silva looks like he could be going to PSG should the right bid be made.

Ozil is a possibility especially if it's true about Modric going to Madrid. Although i don't think United would be interested in Ozil now we've got Kagawa!

Agree0 Disagree0

This is literally the stupidest thing i have ever seen on a rumour forum.

Agree0 Disagree0

30 Jun 2012 12:21:41
Apparently Chelsea are now prepared to enter the bidding for Modric, a bid in the region of £36m is likely which it is believed will secure his services. Levy is likely to sell to the highest bidder, can we compete with that ?

Believable3 Unbelievable12

I think an initial offer of £22m tells us SAF and Gill's valuation of the player. We won't go over £30m for Modric.

I think he's Real bound. If not, Chelski. I dont think we are in the running for him anymore to be honest and suspect SAF is just looking at other targets now.

Halesini

Agree0 Disagree0

36 million ! Ha ! United have signed Kag and have Cleverly to come back and are keeping scholes for another year. No chance I'd say.

Agree0 Disagree0

Looking forward to the transfer window opening so we can hopefully have some clarity on the pogba situation.. Personally I hope he stays. Bookedredmole

Believable10 Unbelievable5

Y do u need the window open he is gone 100%

Agree0 Disagree0

My worry is the reason we've not heard anything is maybe he is leaving but not to a new country.

Shappy

Agree0 Disagree0

Shappy,
I've been saying that for a while now, my guess is City or Chelsea.

Eds, just wondering if we had followed up our interest in Javi Martinez (I.e. bid/ negotiations with Bilbao)? Have you heard anything new recently? Thanks,

#ags {Ed002's Note - Manchester City are probably looking to replace Nigel De Jong in the summer and Javi Garcia and Javi Martinez were the two players they are looking at. I was told a while back that Inter Milan may make a bid for Javi if they decide not to take Juraj Kucka from co-owners Genoa. I am not convinced that Bilboa will want to sell the player any time soon, and if they do they will want 40M euro with Barcelona and Real Madrid being possible destinations. Garcia has signed a new deal at Benfica so I imagine Martinez will become a serious target for Manchester City who may also face interest from Manchester United.}
