Transfer thread 14/15

According to Sky Sports Italia, we've made a bid for Fiorentina winger Juan Cuadrado. Can also play wing back from what I've read so there might be some truth behind this.

In Wenger's press conference today he confirmed we made a bid for Vermaelen. Prefers to sell him abroad but rumours say he wants to move to us. Wouldn't be a bad signing for centre back, still need another one though and a central midfielder.

read that Van Gaal has told Woodwood it's okay to sell: Anderson, Kagawa, Nani and Felaini possibley Chicarito, can't remember the exact list, think it was those 4 maybe 5. It was about half of the original for sale list

Yeah Napoli are after Fellaini and Dortmund want Kagawa back on loan or so. If we sell Kagawa it should be back to Dortmund and either Reus or Hummels coming our way. Anderson's and Nani's chances have come and gone. I want Hernandez to stay but isn't the player he used to be and Wilson's form for our reserves in fantastic, right now we're playing City in the U21s Seniors Cup final and we're winning 3-1 with Wilson getting a hattrick. Has 27 goals in 31 appearances at all levels for United so far.

Young I think has impressed LVG in his willingness and performances in the wing-back position so that's why he's being kept I feel. Same with Valencia who always puts a shift in.

yeah, a more attacking option in the wingback roles could be vital for substitutions, especially. If 1 nil down or 0-0 a winger coming on for a full back without changing shape could be handy, and they are proving they won't give up trying. They know they can be a part of a big club and it's their last chance to do so. Kagawa has always known he's welcome back at Dortmund. Hernandez knows he'll play more for another team. Fellaini didn't fit in. And Nani isn't going to defend. Anderson is Anderson.

A lot of rumours kicking around that we are after victor Moses.

In none important news, Borini still hasn't signed. I don't blame him to be fair. He said last season that his spell was only a loan deal. I don't know why we are still chasing. I'd go after Scott Sinclair ( that's if he is still at city)?

Yeah he's still at City.

Vermaelen is off to Barca, Arsenal wanted Smalling and we said no. So that's that then. Onto the next target for centre back.

Vermaelen has gone to Barcelona, would of been a good signing for centre-back but we move on. Still need 2 centre backs however.

Apparently Juan Cuadrado's agent is in Manchester for talks.

Do you meant the agent of Raymond the bastard is in Manchester...

Moses is also being linked with Villa on loan.

West ham have made a bid for Conor wickham

and it's been rejected

Exeter might have our PFA loan paid off by the end of the week and will be able to sign the two players we've had on trial for ages - Christian Riberio and Graham Cummins...

Made all the more fun by Ribeiro tearing his groin and being out for the next couple of months (Hodge will probably understand why that's not a shock), and Graham Cummins with his one-goal-in-8 strikerate.

I can't see anything other than a bottom-placed finish and non-league football next season.

Ribs is the most unfortunate footballer in the history of anything, had all the potential in the world and at one stage Everton were trying to get him from us but one injury after the other he appeared he was made from glass.

It looks like we have signed another spanish player Damià Abella
And Adam Clayton is looking close aswell

Signed Marcos Rojo from Sporting Lisbon, a centre back who can also play left back. Exactly what we needed. Hopefully there's another 3/4 to come another centre back coming in as well as 2 centre mids and a good winger. Nani went to Sporting the other way on loan.

Various reports today state that we are close to signing Angel Di Maria from Real Madrid for around 50/60 million and could be our player by the end of this week coming. Exactly what we need, we haven't had a class winger since ronaldo left. Can also player in a midfield 3 which he did well in at Madrid.

Sunderland are front runners for welbeck according to a few reports. I hope it works and then borini can do one. Borini prefers another loan deal.

Also, I feel Utd are slightly paying over the odds for di Maria.

Mcmanaman made a brilliant point about Real. They actually don't piss away money, because the likes of Di Maria, Ozil,Khedira they get for 15-20m Euros then flog them for 50m pounds to desperate clubs. Then use the money to pay for mega stars, and they've done business like that for a long time.

Rocky alavarez in.

Sebastian Coates
Micah Richards
Dik van dijk
Toby alberwood

All doing the rounds. Still need a striker...

Coates at Sunderland today I saw on sky sports.

Falcao lol

Jelle vossen in. Hopefully a good signing for us. He is a player we have scouted for a long time and has a good goal scoring record in Belgium.

Exeter signed some dude from Northampton. Which is great, except he's played twice in two and a half years after snapping his leg so badly, it was thought he have it amputated. Perfect Exeter signing...

Richards was supposedly going to fiorentina on loan, Alderwald to Southampton along with Mane and Welbeck to Arsenal for £16m.

I know Arsenal fans will be annoyed by Welbeck, considering Man Yoo have got Falcao, but I think that's a hell of a move for them and Welbeck.
