I'd prefer this type of unveiling...

You reckon muller is worth about 100 million sterling and stones is worth over 30 million and same as an experienced world cup finalist defender?

I'd say the uproar in this thread would be unbearable haha.

Its not my money and it helps get the right players in and rubbish out. Di maria would be no loss and Muller would be a huge gain. Everton have rejected 20m from Chelsea so Id pay that bit extra and give them Evans so they have a "replacement". As with Di maria Evans would be no loss. Stones could be one for the future unless you think that man is Phil Jones who will shortly be heading into his 6th year with us:o

This kind of business means we have very little to do next summer. We'd be looking at replacing De Gea more than likely. That would be ideal and would give LVG a great chancing of winning the league in what could be his final season. If we still need 3 or 4 players next summer there is something badly wrong in this rebuilding process

Jamie Jackson last night claimed that Muller is open to a move to United. He says his salary if the transfer happened would be €20 million a year, double his current salary.
Jackson says Muller was not interested in a move to United 12 months ago, but after bust ups with Pep he had a change of mind.

The hours go by and nothing from the talkative Muller...

You have to be the most optimistic poster on this thread.

I don't mean that as a slight on you btw.

Mitch Connor

i've no doubt Muller is open to a move to United, none at all.

The reason I think he won't sign for United is that I don't think he really wants out of Munich (as in he is not desperate to leave) and Munich would be insane, from a PR point of view if nothing else, selling another German gem following Kroos last summer and Schweinsteiger this summer - the fans would riot.

I reckon you have more chance of Pep leaving next summer than Muller being sold this summer or next.

There's no way Utd would sign Ibra and then leave him on the bench, nor is there any chance he'd move to Utd to sit on the bench. Don't be ridiculous.

Having said that I'll eat my hat if Utd sign him.

Not bein ridiculous, it's not my view, if u read my post I said APPARENTLY

That Mike Smalling thing reminds me of a time years ago when Shola Ameobi was on Soccer AM and they asked him what Bobby Robson's nickname for him was and he just said "Carl Cort".

That's the great thing about this thread everybody has got an opinion dont they

the only part I'd have issue with is writing off di maria after one year. The simple facts of the matter is the only facts we have to go on is the player him self said he want to stay here no one else has made a comment just speculating.

This is a former team of the year member if he puts his head down and works next year like he did at start of last year he would be like a superstar signing all over again.

Well I did buy shares in United...:P have to be optimistic.

I think it is very unlikely that Muller moves, and even though it is very unlikely, I just love the thought of Muller playing in a United shirt, it would be glorious.
There is a small bit of me that believes it could happen, the whole silence from Muller in regards to Bastian moving and then the rumours from yesterday, just makes me think there could be something behind the rumours.
One wonders are we in the softening up area of a big deal, where the news breaks, nothing happens as each set of fans digest the news and given time to imagine it happening, so if it does happen the initial sharp edges are taken off as it is less of a shock. Like we have been with De Gea, one could say the same for Real Madrid and Ramos. Sterling made it easy for Liverpool fans to want to see him gone.

I would take offense if you had said a miserable old bastard as I don't see myself as any of those...:pac:
Most optimistic is good, it doesn't bother me if the deal doesn't happen, but I just love the thought of it being a possibility, which makes reality even better if it were to happen.

was some talk today in spain that Ramos and Perez are to meet this week and if Ramos reiterates his (apparent) desire to sign for United, Perez may look to use him as bait for DDG - which is confusing as it seems that United were using as DDG as bait for Ramos. Whatevs...

Yes and this time I will infuse my body with caffeine as I didn't for the last match even though I had intended on doing so...which resulted me in falling asleep after Schneiderlin had scored, I saw the goal and woke up when the match was over.

Ramos don't have the balls to the last time he supposedly tried that he ended up hugging the man. Its like when ya go break up with a bird and end up sleeping with her.

He said before that the barca game was when he is planning to play his approximate first choice side for the first time. First two games are planned for fitness only, really

That wasn't a private meeting though, that was all the players coming back for training. This is supposed to be a proper discussion planned/scheduled

In my opinion I'd say no. The analysis is terrible really biased its OK for watching youth matched and lvgs Friday interview and I watch paddy for the comedy aspect of it but if I had to pay for it I wouldn't have it in.

I ended up on the beer Friday. Was hoping to end up in costellos hunting down future guy but instead got 20 nuggets in macdonalds for 6 euro and watched the match hungover.

Mitch Connor

So, along with the reports of Madrid considering selling Ramos to United to get DDG, another foreign press is saying we are closing in on Cillisen. Wonder if it is all tying together to see DDG to Madrid and Ramos and Cillisen to United in the next few days.

Or it is all media BS.

Who knows.

Reserves and U21s can be interesting to watch if you are into watching them, nice to see the up and coming players. Can be decent to stick on the replays of the United games in the background when doing some other stuff.

I love watching the youths but I feel so frustrated this summer with some of the players they let go without giving them a chance and its so often the way with united.

I always watch the youth games, mostly the u21's. but then when the united game isnt on live tv, its nice to see it in full at midnight.

I actually wouldn't mind Cillessen, he's a pretty solid keeper. i don't get people being so against him. Don't get me wrong he is no DeGea, but then again who is.. He would be able to come straight in and understand LVG's philosophy and he is very good with the ball at his feet

Rothwell and Pearson both gone to Barnsley on loan are a big loss for the youths. Will be good for them though if they get first team football

Yeh I liked janko and I liked thorpe too, i thought thorpe should of been given games last year instead of mcnair even do paddy did well when he came in.

I know we can say most of the time we get it right an the players don't do so well but sometimes maybe a player would of progressed better with us if they hadn't been let go if you get me.

They'll both hit 21 this season - they will either make it at that level or they won't make it all, at this point - imo. Another season at United, given they are well off first team quality imo, would have been poor for them. Sure look at Thorpe last season, a season absolutely wasted for him.

Dontnhave any problem with loans most of time but janko should definitely went on loan to celtic if possible.

Don't rate Janko at all myself.

Only stood out when he first signed cause he is big/fast/strong so he was able to physically dominate his opponent. Doesn't have the technique to make the progression to the first team at United, imo. not close. Have no issue with him being sold

Oh i agree totally, would have rather Thorpe made the step up last season over McNair and Blackett.. I think with Rothwell and Pearson its more about putting them in the shop window and getting as much as we can for them and giving them a chance to move on

That's fair enough mate I thought he had more to offer considering we now have verella back playing that spot.

Always believed we could get Ramos. A great leader for the defense.

Hopefully we can have a Ramos to Schweinsteiger to Muller.....Goaaaallllllllllll.

How much will we have to pay to get Ramos if De Gea goes the other way? What kind of money will the Dutch keeper cost?
