One thing that worries me is the article is behind a paysite

Yeah, yeah but...


They use the headline "Transfer-Hammer!" I don't know what it means but it sounds sensational!

It's Bild. They're one of the biggest papers in Germany. Plus other German sources are reporting it.

FutureGuy

I'll be making an announcement shortly.

Schweinsteiger, Schneiderlin, those shirts will cost a bloody fortune! How many letters is that?

J. Marston

I refuse to get excited.

In your announcement just remember that dear bastian needs a German friend in the dressing room.. maybe someone he can go dancing with

adox

I'm all in on this one.

Another thing that could work in our favour is addidas,

Addidas are German so is Bastian,
Bastian plays for Bayern and addidas part own Bayern

Bild are spoofers. Kicker is one of the only reliable German sources.

Lovely Bloke

Bild is a red top.

"One of the biggest papers" so the fck what, The Sun is the largest selling paper in the UK.

Rayne Wooney

They stitched us up with Gundogan too

Wouldn't believe a word of it

Jaysus lads, chill. I'm well aware of who Bild are. But they've gone balls out with this and other German sources are going with it too.

I want to believe...

I told you all last night
Darmian was on the #PositivityTrain picking up other players...
Ramos and Ronaldo
Otamendi
Schweinstieger (done) and Mueller
Schneiderlin

Any reliable journalist going with it?

Feck it. I don't care if it would be an unprecedented move that may piss off Rooney, but if Schweni does come I would instantly make him captain. Really fulfill the Keane role then. I would imagine the German accent is a lot more terrifying to be shouted at you than the Scouse one

Nothing from the UK, but they've been totally out of the loop this summer. Jan Aage Fjortoft who covers the Bundesliga is saying it's reliable.

This is more definitive than Gun dogs was.

I'd say it's definitely happening and I NEVER take the train.

Its the only reason I can think of for us not to have signed MS by now. Hopefully we are simply getting it done in quite and he will be announced early next week, or even at the weekend so that he is able to fly with the rest of the squad to America.

Would be ecstatic if we add BS and MS to midfield.

Even though this is most likely bull****, going for Schweinsteiger before Schneiderlin could be a deliberate move by Utd if they are certain they want both of them.

They could use the Schweinsteiger signing to try and pressurise Southampton into dropping their price.

I wouldn't be so sure that it's an either/or scenario. I think Utd need two midfielders this summer.

jayo26

If it does come off it just goes to show how out of the loop the english press are when it comes to united they have missed out on our first two signings so far this couod be a third. And we use to think fergie was harsh on the press he aint a patch on lvg and woodie.

I couldnt see united using a scenario like that over a few million euro... i dont know whats up with the schneiderlin desa but that would be a bit risky just to save 5 million.

i hope you are right - i think United should be after two cms and I'd be delighted with these two. I just worry that Schneiderlin has been delayed as we only want him if we don't get Schweinsteiger. Similar to how we had some sort of deal in place for Darmian a while back (read that the other day, could be bull) and have probably only pushed it since we missed out on Alves.

If we only get one CM this summer, we are going to suffer for it. If we get BS and MS, we'll have a formidable midfield, which would be nice for a change!

Basically here if BILD and Sport1 are wrong then everyone is wrong .. Probably 50-50 but I'm not surprised one bit any UK journalist doesn't have it ... Ed continuing to treat them like shít after what they did

DiMarzio has tweeted it too and he was pretty on the ball with Darmian

Don't do it to yourselves lads. Imagine that headline was in the Sun and nowhere else. Would you believe it?

It's the same.

UnitedIrishman

Looking more and more likely now. Unfortunately, in one sense, can see it being the end of our chase for Schneiderlin.

The upside is - it's Bastian fúcking Schweinsteiger.

Google translate is your friend

Schweinsteiger just before exchange - agreement with Manchester United , but it still lacks the signature.

think it means it is all agreed - all it needs is a signature.

So if it isn't signed... it isn't done....

no reason they wouldnt sign both. seems we are moving to a 433 with cl and everything will need 5-6 midfielders so blind, herrera, fellaini, carrick and the 2 of them

(Schweinsteiger wants to move to manchester and bring his little brother thomas muller woth him for company) thats all i can translate from it.

Otamendi in ancouple of weeks i really hope schneiderlin comes tho.

JamboMac

I hope do Maria is going nowhere, I feel we'll regret it if he does.

Have a feeling he'll have a good season with scweinsteiger running the show.

brinty

Otamendi next possibly Mueller

Bild is the English version of the sun, but they are running heavily with this story so maybe a hint of truth it in......or maybe not
