Manchester United Rumours Archive July 09 2015

09 Jul 2015 21:46:18
Just had a quick surf and there's several sites and papers saying that there's been an official bid for schweinstiger

09 Jul 2015 22:51:50
Some reliable people pointing out that the next few days are very decisive the in his future.

09 Jul 2015 23:20:42
Monday will be the decisive day, apparently they meeting over the weeken sweini n the chairman, looks like bayern will generously ask him to leave or be on the bench

10 Jul 2015 09:08:21
Big V,

Let's hope that is what they ask him, because if they do he will be a United player before next week is out, not sure it will be as simple as that though, it never seems to be!

10 Jul 2015 10:08:38
I think we have a pretty decent chance of this one. Bayern seem to want him to leave and LVG wants him, could be a good match. Schweinsteiger and Schneiderlin would be two fantastic new additions to our midfield.

10 Jul 2015 13:34:13
It does seem that he is not wanted after rummigers comments about him being flattered. Not the words of somebody that wants to keep him if you ask me.

10 Jul 2015 13:40:36
would be very exschiting Fresh!

08 Jul 2015 22:40:07
Looking like Rvp is following Nani to Fenerbache. So we must have a striker lined up? Eds do you know of any potential replacements the club may be looking at?Hopefully not cavani or higuain. Would rooney and a potential striker coming in be enough up top?

{Ed004's Note - Not sure who the club is targeting}

09 Jul 2015 19:05:10
I would love for Wilson and Janujaz ( he can play as a striker and is good at it) to share the responsibility. Any other team they would be regulars but just because they are at United there's extra pressure on them. A few matches of under par performances and the fans will turn on them. Plus other teams having more experienced strikers and still trying to strengthen makes me want to have a big name at United. It would be best for these two to get loan experience at some other premier league club and get directly in our team once ready.
As for United there are very few options and out of those also some are not for sale. Still not sure if Real would let Benzema go, Napoli is asking way to much for Higuain who is not that good, Kane would be a huge bargain for that price, Mitrovic has had two very good seasons though it was in a weak league, Lacazette has had one good season but looks like the real deal but is he for sale. Obviously there may be many others and the scouts and coaches would be having very different opinions from me , a reason being that they know their job better than me.

09 Jul 2015 20:43:47
Why all this talk of a new striker now the RVP is leaving, surely LVG will be playing Fellaini up front with Rooney next season, with Wilson as the back up.

09 Jul 2015 21:47:29
Kane would be my number one choice mainly because of his age and nationality. I watched most the u21 euro games recently, and even though he was feeding off of scraps, he looked very dangerous when he got a sniff of a chance. Reminds me of Ruud a lot, except he is not quite as quick, but his overall game excites me a lot. Having said that I can't see him leaving spurs this summer, unless we go all out for him.

09 Jul 2015 16:55:25
Hi ed's a newspaper reporting real will not enquire about Otamendi as they feel he's bound for old Trafford (watering at the mouth) do you guys have any news of this. Thank you

{Ed007's Note - No.}

09 Jul 2015 16:05:36
BBC reporting that we're interested in sakho of West Ham

09 Jul 2015 16:22:39
I was really impressed by him home and away last year, didn't give the defence a minutes rest, fast and strong. He's shown he can deliver in the Premier League

09 Jul 2015 16:31:13
Well we do need a new striker but him? Is he the guy we really need?

I'd rather take a chance and splash £40million on Kane.

09 Jul 2015 16:32:17
Hope not, not near good enough in my opinion

09 Jul 2015 16:51:44
Not a glam name, but not an overpriced has been who will command all the money in the world. He had a fantastic season and for £15 million, great deal. A long way to go before anything concrete can be proven though!

09 Jul 2015 17:22:24
You have to think what do we need and what are our plans. We play 433 then we need 1 more than rooney/Wilson. If rooney is 1st choice in lvgs mind you need an up and coming who is willing to bide his time and take over fully later. Sako possibly does Thst along with benteke but at a much cheaper price.
Who knows they may even take Rafael as part of the deal!!!

09 Jul 2015 20:03:33
Could be like Saha. He turned good for us (when fit!)

09 Jul 2015 22:01:07
Like 60% of you, I would actually prefer the £15m Sakho. For now.
Jeeeees u guys make me feel old!

👴👴👴

09 Jul 2015 22:38:31
Yep Rooney up front should be good for 15 goals if he plays upfront every game and include penalties. Rooney is going to have to have complete change of trajectory to be the striker many are expecting him to be. That rarely happens at his age and is a huge gamble.i have no doubt that rvp had he played all season would score twice as many as roonaldo. Our current strike options aren't even in the top half of the prem in terms of results.Rooney ain't good enough to have team play for him and can't play as part of a team. He can't beat at egg. Apologies for the Rooney thing.

09 Jul 2015 14:48:01
Anything new on schniderlin gone a little quiet was expecting something today

09 Jul 2015 15:18:16
The longer it goes on the longer I fear it won't happen.

09 Jul 2015 16:12:01
How hard is it to agree a fee for schneiderlin if they are only 7 mill apart split the middle and get it done I think it's down to LVG he's holding out for schweinsteiger

09 Jul 2015 18:10:04
We have 2 decent CMs in Carrick and Fellaini we need at least another 2 why we are messing about when Schneiderlin should have been done and dusted months ago

09 Jul 2015 11:42:32
A couple of lads I play footy with are close friends with phil bardsley. Apparently rooney has told him that bale will be signed before the tour. Due to have a medical before sunday. Probably a load of rubbish but thought idshare

09 Jul 2015 12:03:05
Love rumours like these ones! I hope your right.

09 Jul 2015 12:09:30
I really want to blv that rumour. I honestly feel that's the reason of delay in De Gea deal as opposed to much acclaimed Ramos situation.

And with Darmian signing (as mentioned close to 3 month's ago by the Messiah ED002 himself), its safe to say that the media has absolutely no news of what's happening with united transfers.

09 Jul 2015 12:16:15
These are the best kind of rumours! Few people think we have something big in the pipeline, if I had a choice i'd want bale or muller, so I really hope there's some truth in this!

09 Jul 2015 12:32:28
If these di maria stories are anything to go by then it's plausible

09 Jul 2015 12:36:10
Let's face it. It would only happen if De Gea was part of the deal. And perhaps Bale would be our striker? No reason why he couldn't be.

09 Jul 2015 12:38:34
Now this is what this site is about. rumours based on spurious whispers.
Cant see it.would love it.
With all talk of Schweinsteiger, Schneiderlin. anyone seen Sneijder in Manchester recently???

09 Jul 2015 12:51:51
If Di Maria leaves, which could happen, endless links to Bayern and PSG then maybe this could happen. I think something is happening that is big, because we wouldn't let Falcao, RVP, Nani, Chicarito (pending) etc leave without something being agreed behind the scenes.

Can I ask people, why is there so much secrecy surrounding footballers, I mean thinking of De Gea, why doesn't he come out and say either way. Surely he has told Mata and Herrera what his plans are yet nothing is ever leaked to media. Is it the clubs that put these embargoes out to protect themselves and their £'s?

09 Jul 2015 12:43:50
Hmmmmm. Nope

09 Jul 2015 12:56:00
I would love it to be true, I asked an ex football team pal who is one of the Physios for Wales about Bale a month or so ago and he told me from what he knows that Bale has no intention of leaving Madrid. Like I say it was about a month ago and things change but from what he told me Bale would not choose to leave so if he does Madrid have forced him out.

09 Jul 2015 13:09:14
I doubt it would be that soon and be that under the radar, but here's hoping! I'd have him and Depay on the wings over most others.

09 Jul 2015 13:17:26
This is the kind of rumour that I joined this site for.

Hope it happens.

09 Jul 2015 13:30:09
Could LVG be looking to introduce Adidas with a bang, using one of their star faces?

09 Jul 2015 13:44:01
Bale is best centrally, he has also stated on numerous occasions that's where he wants to play, Bale would be fantastic in the position that Fellaini has been playing.

If Bale comes in ADM is gone, and to me that's a good thing. Bale will get you a similar number of assists but he will also get you a lot of goals. And goals my friends are what gets you prizes!

quality rumour, thanks for posting!

09 Jul 2015 13:48:56
Even if this doesn't turn out to be true (I hope it does.) This is what this website is for so thanks for sticking your neck out!

09 Jul 2015 14:14:27
Got told from someone that delivers to old trafford that he had been told something similar about Bale in and Di Maria out was on the cards, dismissed it then but maybe there is legs to it after all.

09 Jul 2015 14:20:27
Didn't someone say yesterday that talk on on mutv that there was something big in the pipeline ?

09 Jul 2015 14:46:12
Ed002 has stated all along that there is a price for Bale. Maybe we are willing to pay it?

09 Jul 2015 15:20:10
Imagine it? Gareth Bale in a UTD shirt next season, shivers down the spine!

09 Jul 2015 15:30:20
Gonna throw a spanner into the works here. With letting Falcao, RVP, Henriquez, Hernandez (probably) and Nani leave, we must be signing a forward player, if not a striker, as we will all agree going into the seaosn with Rooney, Wilson and maybe Hernandez isn't going to cut it to win the league.

Reports about ADM to Bayern. What if they take ADM, we take Muller and Schweinsteiger.

Then with De Gea to Madrid, we take Bale.

Any three of Schweinsteiger/Carrick/Schneiderlin/Mata/Herrera with any three of Bale/Depay/Rooney/Muller ahead of them.

As I say, just throwing that out there, don't think we'll sign either of Bale/Muller, but one can hope.

09 Jul 2015 16:19:58
Don't want money wasted on bale under any circumstances.
We have plenty of players in his favored positions besides which he doesn't even want to leave madrid anyway.
If we do want to pay over £50m for 1 player let it be someone that plays in a position that needs strengthening. With falcao gone and rvp soon to follow i would suggest we need to be looking to sign a top class number 9 eg benzama, muller, cavani, lacazette and not waste time trying to attract someone we don't need.

09 Jul 2015 18:36:42
Allan, if Bale was available at a price United were happy to pay, yet didn't go for him, I along with 99.999999% of United fans would be extremely piddled off.

09 Jul 2015 09:01:56
Is it true RVP has gone? Signed for fenerbache

09 Jul 2015 12:02:20
According to Sky they still need to finalise a few details but they claim he is having a medical. Surely if/when he goes there must be plans for a replacement coming in - I can't see LVG letting him leave without an alternate option.

09 Jul 2015 12:17:25
Probably Cavani I would think

09 Jul 2015 16:11:22
Cavani is rubbish! Why can't people see that!
