2 million for paul scholes? roy keane should know better... he's valued way more than that. But scholes still has another season in him.

Try adding another zero after 2 and before "million!"

Smudger is in negotiations on a contract extension ; http://home.skysports.com/list.aspx?hlid=469976&CPID=8&clid=1&lid=&title=Smith+hopeful+for+new+deal


Did anyone watch the Portugal match last night? Nani played really well and scored a goal as well.

[ladylover]

I still can´t believe that we got both Nani and Anderson,

Yes, quite a good game!

 

[pefan]

yep saw the game. I mean how many types of flips does Nani do. He does a normal back flip, front somersault, triple back flips aka aghahowa, corkscrew backflip, backflip corkscrew to front flip, cartwheel backflip corkscrew to front and a cartwheel backflip corkscrew normal flip. LOL....amazing stuff.

Meanwhile, Anderson says he is able to play in several positions - but is happiest at left-back.

"I like being in the middle behind the striker, but I can play in different systems - it all depends on the coach's plans," he told the News of the World.

"But my favourite position is left-back in a 4-4-2 formation, the position of Roberto Carlos, and I've already played there for Brazil."

Thats interesting... left back? Could give us another option... another hint that Heinze's on his way out?

Now i know why we didn't went for Bale. So this explains all.

I would take that with a pinch of salt - he may well love to play LB but can he? I think Anderson is going to be a AM type player, possibly backing up Evra as well.

 

[Tiago_10]

This is surprising. I never saw Anderson play as LB. Personally I think he's too good as an AM to be wasted as a LB. Like organizing play, setting up plays, creating spaces all that he can't really do as a side-back.

Imo he just said that to show he really wants some playing time and he's willing to play wherever the coach needs him.

 

[Stotty]

Theres no-way he's going to play left back, dont be stupid.

if Man Utd can get Saviola also, then wow. I Think hes a great player in which Barcelona wasted his talent

 

[d3adly]

that would be a good buy on a free.

 

[Lean]

I reckon Kerlon is going to be like most Brazilians that are the stars of those U17 tournaments, they just fade away. To my knowledge Ronaldo is the only one that has played at U17 level then made it as a professional in Europe, although i may be wrong

Ronaldinho Gaucho, Anderson, Diego.

 

[Doktor]

Going back to who we should buy as a striker; just being looking at how good Huntelaar is. Check out this compilation of goals.

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2lpd_huntelaar-compilation

Can score all sorts of goals. Has that "fox in the box" quality like RVN did. Would be the cheaper alternative to the likes of Eto'o and Torres. I'd like to see Saviola but just fear that he won't settle Manchester.

 

[mnj2x]

i would be really surprised if we dont buy a striker...

 

[b-ytter]

I think we better get a striker!
Solskjaer had to open his knee again this morning and this time it could be the end of his career!!

Don't worry, Ole has had a routine procedure to clear up his knee a bit, he should be okay for the kick off. Certainly it's not a "career ender"

[pefan]

Anelka is a good player. Not sure how many seasons hes got. Also I think we should snatch Alves of Chelsea and Madrid but theres not much budget left. I think half of the reserves will be sold and 1 or 2 first team players. Hopefully richardson and we can bring in a striker. But if not Alves will be an amazing signing.

 

[Daz]

We don't need Alves.

We need a striker (my choice would be Saviola, seeing as we can get him on the cheap/free)
