The Manchester United Thread

Tunnicliffe and Petrucci ( who isn't CM, he's AMC?) should go on loan. Both under still under 20, plenty of time for them.

Petrucci can play deep. Hopefully he'll get some play time in the Carling Cup, assuming he isn't loaned out for the full season.

25 mil for baines and fellaini is the perfect summer buyings we should go for.

I don't know why anyone would want Fellaini, he's horrible. There's better options out there, who would probably be cheaper too.

I'm still not sure on Baines either, I don't think Paddy would be happy giving up his starting role.

What Fellaini have you been watching?

Evra can like it or lump it. He's 31 now, getting on, and United need a replacement for him. Baines is the best left-back in the league for my money.
 
Baines is a better left back than Evra. I'd jump at the chance to have him take over.

And Fellaini is a beast who would do wonders in our midfield. Versatile passing enforcer. Which is exactly what we are looking for.
 
I say this as someone who was once unsure and occasionally critical of Fellaini: I can see no better fit for United, and that's some of the highest praise I can give him.
 
Fellaini is horrible, why would anyone want to buy him? Baines is terrible too, definitely not good enough for United. As a matter of fact, the Everton squad is the worst in the league, why would anyone take our players?

please please don't take Felli and Baines :c

Fellaini horrible ? You surely would love gibson than i guess buy him back right ? I still think with everton financial situation testing them with a 20 mil bid would force them to sell him.Baines/alaba or alba is a must to succed in europe. Defense decides matches in europe and evra is **** at it.
 
Fellaini is so versatile and good. Amazing player and I doubt he will cost a lot either. 25m is well worth it for a player of his calibre and what he can bring to any squad. Their is a reason why Everton and DM paid so much for him.

Baines is the best LB in the PLM for me as well. Evra has been out of sorts this season and its time he either took a more limited role or went off. Its time Baines got a chance at the top level. Only concern about Baines is his age though.

Another option at LB for Man Utd is Lucas Digne from Lille. Young and looks like he can be a cracking player one day. Could do well
 
Heard reports United are looking at Jordi Alba as well. That would be a fantastic signing considering that Alba can play anywhere down the left and is very good

I would love United to get Jordi Alba, but he probably has his eyes on Barca.

We are being linked with Seydou Keita from Barca in the Daily and Sunday Express, can't see that one myself but who knows.

Age? Baines is 27. 4 year contract. Fabio should hopefully be coming though by then

Wouldn't exactly be long term option for United so I think it's BS.

Agreed, I think the Asamoah and Benatia from Udinese rumours are more believable, think we have already had a 12m bid rejected for Asamoah.

Yes Udinese chairman confirmed that some weeks ago or so. Dont see why you would need Benatia though.
 
But doesn't Ferguson prefer players who have re-sale value?

Not really, no. We just tend to buy good young players who can grow/fit in to the club ethos. In the case of LB we have a gap between a young up coming full back who isnt ready, and one who is shattered and just going past his peak. Need a player in his prime for 4-5 years.

I don't know much about him, just heard the various rumours we are interested in him and Asamoah.

Yeap I've read several too. Udinese seem to allow Asamoah move on if they get good price, but are reluctant to let Benatia go. I think 15m could be enought for him.

Well I believe he is a Centre Back or secondary role Right Back, in my opinion we do not need him, we need a Left Back though.
