United playing PSG, Barca, Club America and San Jose in the US this summer.

Club America - 17 July (Seattle)
San Jose Earthquakes - 21 July (TBD)
Barcelona - 25 July (San Clara)
PSG - 29 July (Chicago)

I hope all incoming transfers are finished by then. It would be great to have the full squad for next year on that tour.

I thought I read a few weeks ago that Van Gaal had insisted they wouldnt be travelling all over America and would play all their games on East Coast??

Bull.



Precisely, they probably are the only club who could, so if they don't, he'll never sell for that.

And as wealthy as United are, the bank account is not a bottomless pit. After the spending last summer, this summer will probably be more restrained. There may still be £70-£100m spent, but as a few positions need filling, I wouldn't expect to see a club record signing.

starting from next season united new adidas deal kicks in, 75m a season, 47m a year from cheverlot, £22m a year from Aon, those 3 deals alone bring in £143m a year and that's before you even consider the new TV deals, season ticket sales, Match day sales, other sponsors that would bring that figure well past £200m a year.

also why do you say its Bull united bid 100m on bale? it was widely reported and acknowledged that that did but he had his heart set on Madrid

West Cost I think, but yeah.

Seatle and Santa Clara would be short hops. Chicago on the way 'home' I suppose. If we play San Jose at/near their home base then 3 of the 4 games are close together.

United already had commercial revenue of £190m last year, that money doesn't just go directly back out as transfer fees. Plenty of it is tied up in existing wages, amortized transfer fees and operating costs. Yes, United will have some extra income, this does not equal £200m a year for transfers though.

I only ever say that story reported in rags like the Metro and the Express, so never put any stock in it.

Can't wait to retain the 2nd biggest club competition in the world this summer.

Add to that knocking Arsenal off their perch for the 4th place cup.....

U21 squad for fulham this evening

United squad: Anders Lindegaard, Kieran O'Hara; Tyler Blackett, Sadiq El-Fitouri, Andy Kellett, Donald Love, Tom Thorpe; Sean Goss, Liam Grimshaw, Adnan Januzaj, Andreas Pereira, Joe Rothwell, James Weir, Matty Willock; Ashley Fletcher, Robin van Persie.

pmasterson95

Whats El-Fittouri & Kellett been like? Havent got to follow U21's much recently. Is Fittouri just a De Leat-esque player or is Kellett a step up on Janko?

thelad95

Wasn't Kellett just signed as a backup? I doubt he has any sort of future at the club.

Hank Scorpio

That's all folks.

Go wan lads ****ing delighted

Manutd_4life

Top 4 defo guaranteed. Just need to focus on having a strong end to the season

Lord TSC

With Liverpool dropping points, we now need 6 points from 12 to qualify for Champions League. 5 if we take our GD on board, and that's presuming Liverpool don't drop any more.

Mantis Toboggan

Thank fcuk Liverpool are ****e!

Massive result in the context of our season. We really need to cop on now and make sure we win Saturday

Nolars

good result, lads should be under no pressure now and kick on and win the last 4 games.

Had a feeling we would get a Brucie Bonus tonight. Get in!!!

That Hull-Liverpool result ought to end some of the pessimism. Only need 5 points from 4 games now. United have to play them as well, but its Hull. Ought to be 3 points in the bag.

See, told ye not to worry about ye defeat.

They have Chelsea away and Stoke away, high chance that they will drop points going by their form.

Chelsea are likely to have the league wrapped up by then, but it's interesting. I can't see us needing even the 5 points right now.

Thank fup for that,

Win against WBA and we are as good as done, they will lose to Chelsea. No way Jose will play any game lightly especially against Liverpool.

After Tonight's Result - (Liverpool Loss )

West Brom (H)
Crystal Palace (A)
Arsenal (H)
Hull (A)

6/12 (5/12 in reality with GD) Points will now secure Champions League Football

Maximum Points Spurs/Pool can now get is 70 - United already on 65!

J. Marston

Liverpool are away to Chelsea and Man City play Spurs and Southampton so it's unlikely that the chasing pack will get maximum points from their fixtures.
