story going around now that Hernadez could be going to Juve, maybe this is the delay in the Vidal deal. Hernandez making his mind up and sorting personnel term. Given Evra has signed €2 mill, Hernandez for around €12- €15 mill we could get Vidal for about €30 mill that would be good business all rouund for both clubs.

Personally I think what's slowing it down is either it's all rumours and we were never going to go after him OR because he is injured.

The delay in the Vidal transfer is his injury! He is trying to recover in time, before the transfer window shuts, so he can pass a medical and we will submit a bid for Vidal.

Or it could be for financial reasons? It's always about money lads.

Your logic does not compute, how you can throw in Evra & Hernandez for Vidal plus cash and not include our players in the final equation, by your reckoning Vidal would have cost us 47m. not 30m
how you can also think Evra can be dragged into this deal I will never know, he's already there.

our last swap deal was probably gillespie plus cash for andy cole, they just don't happen anymore.

Any deal for Vidal will be as it's own transfer . Nothing will have an involvement with evra or Chico.

I remember I read somewhere that a certain journalist believed that United will sign Vidal in the 2nd week of August. So, it could happen any day this weekend or early next week.

Quite worrying he hasn't signed yet not to mention the song rumours. Maybe he is still waiting on barca to buy him with song to us.

{Ed002's Note - I explained there is interest.}
Who would be the better CB for us, Hummels or Benatia?

Ed002, do Manchester United have any tangible interest in Marcos Rojo perhaps as an alternative to Thomas Vermaelen?

{Ed002's Note - No, his agent is in t6alks with two other clubs.}

Apparently we've spoken to Benatia's agent and Benatia has asked us to make the bid. Sounds like pure speculation and Chinese whispers but promising none the less. We're being linked to the right players but whether we get them or not is another thing.

Haha how can it be promising if it's pure speculation?
Agree0

Doesn't sound like me at all

It's promising because it's unlikely that numerous media outlets would all create the story from nowhere on the same day, we've probably made contact with the agent.

Sky Sports reporting Cuadrado is United bound, Eds, can any of you confirm if this is true?
Believable10
Unbelievable3
{Ed002's Note - Nothing has changed just yet I am told. The feeling is that Manchester United would still prefer Di Maria and whilst PSG cannot raise the money that remains a possibility. PSG are also still trying to buy Dani Alves and Barcelona are still looking to Cuadrado as an option.}

Ed002, has anything changed in regards to Vidal? Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - Not to any extent worth noting at t6his time Syd.}
Thanks Ed.

Media rumours that we are to bid £55m for Di Maria. They must be having a laugh!

What an absolute waste of money that would be! Hope it's bs

Hes too inconsistant, similar to nani in my opinion, wouldn't want his at united. Especially at the price!
Agree1
Disagree0
Best player in champs league final gets a lot of assist natural left footed can play part of a 3 in midfield and as a winger quick why not better than what we have!
Agree0
Disagree0
Too poor defensively to be any good as a wingback, and not as good through the middle as Mata, or probably Kagawa either.
He's good out wide on either side, but even if we were using wingers, I'd rather have someone who isn't so one-footed, as it makes him more predictable.
Waste of money.
Agree0
Disagree0
Would be a goon addition once we move to 433 but in our current shape he would have to play the Mata role.
Depends on what van Gaals plans are
Agree0

Apparently Real Madrid are extremely keen to move Di Maria on, so I wonder how much of the media speculation about him is being generated by RM?

That price tag is ridiculous and he can't defend, If we sold nani and got him for 25m ok but I'd still rather see januzaj play
