It's different to the Thiago situation.. Last year of his contract and they haven't offered him an improved one, Loads of journos saying he'll be on his way to United.

Someone must come in and take him for that price though. Man if that happens..

"Louis van Gaal ends Manchester United’s interest in Toni Kroos"

Probably see's how pointless it is signing Kroos, when Fellaini is still there and ready to slot into that position.

It's very similar. Thiago was also in the last year of his contract. And I think Bayern have offered an improvement in wages, just not to the amount he wants.

No actual information in that Jamie Jackson article. Although he is one of the more reliable journalists when it comes to United I believe.

[King Gizzard]

Kroos did their kit pictures so they must have been quite confident he was always staying

[Ryan57]

Happens a lot though. We had Park on our tour page in the summer of 2012, who we then sold that same summer.

Also at the top of the United tour page for this summer's tour in the US there's five players...

Cleverley
Young
Rooney
Smalling
Valencia

Would only say Rooney is the only one who's future is secure.

Not clutching at straws ... as I still don't expect Kroos to sign, but no doubt it happens a lot where players feature on promotional content and are then sold.

[Brother Leon]

Nothing is certain regarding the story really. I think we are just waiting to see what Bayern do.

[Ryan57]

MANCHESTER UNITED are prepared to offload flop signing Marouane Fellaini - if they can find someone willing to stump up Ł15million to buy him.

Who is going to pay Ł15 million? It's the most he was worth last summer.

And new manager Louis Van Gaal does not believe the Belgium star has the game to fit into how he wants to play next season.

Van Gaal says he cries at least once every day. He definitely cry when he sees Fellaini's first touch.

And that could even see United having to lower their asking price to as little as Ł10m if Van Gaal makes it clear he doesn't want him in his plans.

Be lucky to get that.

Phil Bardsley signs for Stoke from Sunderland.

Was always one of Sunderland's best players when I watched them this season.

[Ryan57]

Kroos to Bild: "I expected the quotes from Bayern. That I have to accept and respect. After I turned their offer down, I knew how they would respond."

Bild also reporting we've made a Ł25 million bid.

Graham Hunter: #Pep really likes #Kroos as a player but thinks #Scweini slows circulation of possession - thus #United were offered Schweini instead

Just, wtf. I don't think anybody knows what is going on.

[Brother Leon]

They don't. Everyone is just bull****ting and hoping some of the **** sticks.


That said..I would take Bastian in a heartbeat.

Twitter has ruined transfer windows.

2009 - Karim Benzema
2010 - Mesut Ozil
2011 - Wesley Sneijder
2012 - Eden Hazard
2013 - Thiago Alacantara
2014 - Toni Kroos?

More transfer heartbreak awaits.

Teenager Angel Gomes has signed for Manchester United after impressing in trials with the club's under 17 squad. 13 years of age.

Our first signing.

[Locke.]

Willian was the worst, he actually started getting in on all the rumours himself, following the Brazilian players that played for the teams he was linked to

[Ryan57]

I'll be glad when the window closes, and it's not even technically open yet.

[Drew.]

[Ryan57]

Nathan will be hoping Charlie Wyett is full of BS. Saying Villa won't be sold this summer, could take six months to complete a takeover.

[Ryan57]

Balague said there is no buy back clause for Fabregas.

[Black Dagger]

Fernandinho's was the best though last year for us because we all took to twitter and asked him and he's like 'yes Manchester City is what I desperately want' <3.

[Drew.]

They had us all believing for all of these years that there was a clause for Ł25m.. sounds like Ł35m will get him though.

[Ryan57]

Would say there is little need for a clause anyway as he'd choose Arsenal every time over any other team.

[Drew.]

Christ, my twitter timeline is full of people talking about Cesc

[Drew.]

Artetas replacement maybe
