Ed I know you answered a question re future management earlier, but there are now plenty of rumours suggesting saf might be calling it a day this summer. 'Apparently' he's making an announcement this weekend.

The only way I can see him leaving is if it had been the plan for a while, and if there was a high profile replacement in place, not just a quick decision type of thing?

Question is, is there a chance of this happening? And who would you see as the likely replacement if it were to happen?

(PS, I hate rumours like this but intrigued to see what hypothetically might happen) {Ed002's Note - A preferred choice fr a replacement was in place some time ago as discussed. The expectation was that SAF would not go until next summer.}

I hate ferguson retrmnt rumors, but press said Moyes will be our next manager.

Ed i've used the search function but can't see anything about the SAF replacement. Who was lined up?

Dan {Ed002's Note - As I have explained before I don't want to get in to names.}

This was always the plan SAF to retire and Moyes to not resign for Everton and take over lots of people have known about it for time. Kate. f

fergie to step down possibly as he wins the title again, and go on a high. But, Moyes? seriously? are you kidding me? {Ed002's Note - I have already had a bunch of abuse, so perhaps folks understand why it is best not to say sometimes.}

Hi edd I know you don't like to discuss next summer or anything like that but have you any info on who is lined up to take over from fergie or are you not saying anything so you cover your own back. Please don't take offence to this post as I have a lot of respect for what you guys do I just want to know if you know who the heir to the throne is going to be. I'm not lookin for a name I just want to know is there a plan of action. Thanks in advance.

CAIN {Ed002's Note - As has been explained, I am aware of the club's current intentions which has been the position for several months. But next year remains a long way off right now.}

Iv looked trough tge post an can't see any other posts or reply from yourself in which you have talked of these intentions. So can you tell us what is going on at the moment who is being considered an if the plan is going accordingly or do you not want to risk a frenzy of posts. Sorry if i'm buggin you but this has being eaten away at me.

Eds or any regulars know if we have any interest in Marco Van Ginkel of Vitesse?

Sanshine {Ed002's Note - If Van Ginkel moves in the summer it will likely be to Twente, but he seems happy to stay where he is for now rather than end up on the bench at PSV or Ajax.}

Believable0 Unbelievable4

Thanks, I saw a few articles about him saying he wants to say and stated about Buttner's move here; he'd of done the same. I'm hoping for Strootman this summer and maybe someone like Goretzka.

I don't know if we have any interest in him, but I hope we do. He is an excellent prospect. He is the heart beat of the Vitesse side. Everyone gets caught up with Bony but a lot of his chances are set up by Van Ginkel. He is a very well rounded modern midfielder. I'd love us to go double dutch this summer with a swoop for Strootman and Van Ginkel.

Is there any truth to stories about our interest in Marchisio? and would Juve consider selling him.

Shahram {Ed002's Note - Right now, I still don't see Marchisio moving to Old Trafford this summer - regardless of interest or not.}

Believable3 Unbelievable6

ED002 is there any particular reason you don't see him moving?

Supposedly the player is interested in playing in England, no mention of which team though.

Reports today that Marchisio, of Juventas is Old Trafford bound with Nani going the other way. Sounds a good deal to me.

Believable12 Unbelievable11

I will be happy with Nani going anywhere.

This would be evidence there IS a God!
Hence unlikely to happen : (
