Sorry for the Exciting yet incorrect post ( Sorry my bad ) . I again had a chat with the friend who was suppose to plan a trip for the Qatari Billionaires , and the person said that they had made a bid for Manchester United and it has been rejected , so they wont be travelling . I am sorry about the whole post .

Rubbish it was never even going to happen never mind a bid, you would not usually put a offer in of over 1billion and do this over the phone. Both owner and prospective buyers would normally sit down and discuss. You talking utter rubbish sorry.

I agree all it is, is that people can't just be happy with what we have got. We are Manchester United we have become to much of a high value sports operation that it's very very hard to takeover because of the value of the club..

Hi Guys
I have to admit that I was one who wanted WS to sign in the last window and IMO there was real interest from both sides.So it disappoints me that he now feels the need to come out with the comments that he has recently.If he wasn't interested in us and loves Inter that much why did it take him until 20 minutes before the window shut to tweet that he was staying.
I have to say my stance has changed.You had your chance Wesley my old son and your greed blew it.So now I think we should move on forget about you know who and get behind the lads and cheer them on to title number 20.

"United? I would have liked to [join them]. It would be crazy to suggest otherwise," Sneijder was quoted as saying by the Corriere dello Sport.

"There was a moment when I was close to United, but in the end nothing happened.

"However, I am happy in Milan as the president [Massimo Moratti] did not want to sell me."

"Inter gave me a chance when the door was closed. I feel at home here and I never wanted to go.

"I don't know why my move to Manchester United never materialised, maybe they never really wanted me."

i think his lost it , in the same interview he says i would of liked to join united, but that he never wanted to go

United wanted him and he wanted to come but we just couldn't get the details done so we moved on.
It's a shame would have loved him at our club, but there it is.

I'm sick of people saying WS is greedy. There's no factual evidence to prove the deal stalled over his wages just press nonsense! He's not a greedy player, it was the clubs who couldn't reach a decision. Stop tarring him with this brush please!

Jred
It means he wasnt pushing for a move out of Inter, but a move to United would've interested him

Pretty much exactly what DR93 and Red Daz have said put together, is what iv'e heard

fergie saying that sneijder not the type of player we wanted--but why pursue him then? and arent modric and goetze similar players too? what IS the type of midfielder we want then boss?

I don't think his on field play is in question here its more the demanding side from him.... HERBIE

Who said we were pursuing him? Fergie and Gill never said we were. Sneijder said there were 'informal' talks but he changes his mind like the weather!

He never said he wasn't the type of player he wanted, he said he did want him, but he would not be a like for like replacement for Scholes. Come on fellas, read the quotes, not the headlines.

Sydney!

Quotes are often taken out of context too so they're not definitive either

theres always a hidden agenda when answering questions like these anyway, neither Fergie nor Sneijder will want to come out looking bad or unloyal in answering questions to the press

;HP

Not often I agree with you Sydney but I do re your last comment.

P.s. Goetze scores a hell of a lot more goals then Modric. No contest.

Pip

Haha modric and sneijder the same type of players :) get real

Bernard

Juz a typical excuse... sneijder's demand already kill da move...

I still feel we should make a bid for my love child Xherdan Shaqiri. Scored a hat-trick last night for Switzerland, great young talent.

DB-Red

Wow! heard of this guy before and i've watched him play before too, he was amazing against bulgaria! i think he's easily got as much skill as gotze, similar style too however Shaqiri has a superb long shooting ability too, anyone see his beautiful goal against england?

Ozwald

I have an unhealthy obsession with shaqiri, better than goetze :)
