Is he not going to United with 'Ronnie', Muller, Kroos, Bale, etc, etc?

Icardi available for 19m according to reports in Italy. Dropped for the derby last night & fell out with Mancini. If its true we should go for him.

He missed a peno 5mins after he came on as a sub too!

Yay, one more game of crushing disappointment.

Difference is Benteke isn't suited to our playing style. Icardi is as he plays on the shoulder of the last defender & has good movement. He is a better finisher than Benteke as well.

He is absolute poison in the dressing room. In Argentine nicking your best mate's woman in more or less known as pulling an Icardi. He nabbed Maxi Lopez wife, fair enough you might say but he has been less than the gentleman about it and is constantly throwing it back in his face. His nutty glamour model wife (Wanda Nara) is his agent.

The pair of them are trouble. Even when Argentina had injury crisis up front he was kept away from the team as he is wildly unpopular. All off field stuff, but I dont think we need it. Good finisher, but a complete headcase / knacker.

Not sure if it was posted here but Teixeira was in Rio last night for Vasco da Gama's match:

http://espn.uol.com.br/noticia/574430_com-alex-teixeira-e-eurico-na-torcida-vasco-goleia-madureira-em-sao-januario

So presumably he's still in Brazil?

As long as the paperwork is done before 11pm it'll be ok. I don't see it happening tho

Get him and Ballotelli playing together, there madness will cancel each other out and there football skills will shine. Fact.

United are signing him and Ronnie so they can have a front three of Neymar, Martial, Ronaldo

I nearly hope they sign Ronaldo, 44% of his goals this season were against 2 opponents, Espanyol and Malmo

And yet is still joint top scorer in La Liga with 19 goals.
That stat sounds worse than it really is.

8 of the goals came in 2 games against Espanyol though. He scored 11 in the other 20 La Liga games......still decent anyway.....

Reading through a Real forum last night and there was a surprising number that think he is really on the wain and are looking for him to be replaced.

Have we signed Tex yet?

Pep confirmed as Man City manager for next season on a three year deal - http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/35461090

The PL just got a whole lot more interesting.

Stoke looking to get Imbula for 18m.
Very good deal would like him at Liverpool.

Not really. It'll be city paying crazy cash to bring in high profile players and being in the title race season after season. It's been that way for a while now. I'd like to see Pep take on a challenge tbh.

Could of had him if they wanted I was told by many, club steeped in history, build a great united side bla bla bla bla

Oh the irony of it all, harping on about history when they mocked us for years.

Brother was convinced he was coming and that's why they hadn't sacked LVG yet, made my fcking day!

Its more annoyance of the way United have been operating over the last couple of years rather than anyone actually thinking Pep was ever going to join us.

If you look back through the threads since he announced he was leaving Bayern you would be hard pressed to find anyone that genuinely thought we would be an option for him.

Man Utd are just a bigger Liverpool now! :pac:

Jaysus, there's about 700 mentions of Liverpool in that thread


Obsessed much?

The Chinese are a mad bunch...

Just because he has no caps for Brazil, they think he'll play for them.

What a class act pelligrini is knows about it this month and carries on doing his job

I always felt Guardiola was going to City. I don't think Man U were ever in the equation for him. Mourinho will end up at Man U.

He comes across as a gentleman, a rarity in football.

I came across this listing of net spending (:eek:) for last summer and the current transfer window, we have a net spend of £25m.

As opposed to leaving immediately and forgoing his remaining wages for the fixed term contract he is under?

If Ronaldo did go back to utd in the summer then even in his reduced state (and he is past his peak now) he would still score 25 goals in all comps I reckon if he was fit for the majority of the season. I don't think he will go back there though, and even for utd it would use up a huge chunk of transfer budget with his fee and wages. I can't see them paying 60m+ for a 31 year old though.

Skrtel needs 2-3 more days before returning to training.
Sturridge should return to training on Wednesday.
Origi and Coutinho on Thursday.

Getting Sturridge back Wednesday will be the best bit of business God's done this Spring.

Back in training Wednesday. 10 more days training before he is a selection option. No chance

I know he was only on the pitch acouple of minutes against West Ham, but his attempted free kick and then passing the ball to the opposition a couple of times should signal his end with us.

What a day if that goes through!

Not if it involves kicking a ball. They'd diagnose partial lobotomy, judging by Saturday.
