As per perisic, I Dont know what to expect of hm n the EFL if he eventually comes. I would still prefer martial on the LW.

Alexis Sanchez is the answer not Perisic. I dont know why Man Utd is not heavily linked to the guy the way Man City has been linked.

Guys if City should get Alexis and sort their defence, i will concede the EPL to them. Because that attack will wreck epl teams.

NB: please where can our friendlies be watched. Are they available on Dstv.?

How do we watch this? Is it available on Dstv?

Even if it's Real..... he's likely to be sold to Bayern or Juventus. I also read it somewhere, and the Source claimed he told Canal 13 in Chile.

This is why EPL teams may not win UCL in a long time. The unproductive competition is sickening. Dortmund freely sells players to Bayern, Madrid just bought Ceballos from Real Betis. But EPL teams will rather starve English top clubs who can win UCL of their best players . No wonder Mou complained about a difficult transfer market.

Lol is it because of Yokozuma or wetin be in name you con carry dictionary. Ok o we don hear you Chelsea won back to back UCL 15 years ago. Sleep in peace.

PietroRico:
Sanchez comes out to say he wants out and the murmurings of United interest are gathering pace

I doubt if Arsenal will sell him to United. If he comes in that will be great for the team though.

hensben:
So Chelsea wasn't existing 15 years ago huh. So you think this guys support clubs the way most Nigerians do it, that is glory hunter things so that you can brag about number of trophies won, which make most of you ignorant of the game. Are you aware your Luke Shaw is a Chelsea fan from childhood, his household are Chelsea fan.

Story! Am just saying the club wasnt so relevant before you got a sugar daddy. By relevance i mean playing actively in UCL.

According to SKysport Bakayoko told the club's official website: "I am very happy to be here and to join this great team. I have grown up watching Chelsea. Signing was the natural thing for me because it is a club I loved very much in my childhood".


Where was chelsea 15 years ago? I feel like slapping the daylight out of this dude. Chelsea kwa? Its all about the money for most players now.

You asked for my expectations abi not your own expectation
My expectations for Pep is to finish above Mourinho, If Mourinho finishes 20th, All I expect from hin is to finish 19th or lower

Thats my expectation. To best Mourinho in the League and CL

The hatred is real. Why evils?

dubylhover:
tho we still don't know how true the story is,neither are we in the mind of degea,but if he eventually wants to leave,how is it termed "ungrateful"?

I am irked at the fact that we keep discussing this De Gea to Madrid issue every year. If the guy is really loyal to the United Project he should openly shut down these stories . A statement like "I am happy at United,i am not going to Madrid" will suffice. And if he really wants to go he should hand in a transfer request.

We cant sweep the stories under the rug, there is hardly any smoke without fire.

DE GEA WANTS UNITED EXIT?

Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea wants to join Real Madrid this summer and has told his agent Jorge Mendes to get the deal done, reports Don Balon.

The 26-year-old has been linked with Los Blancos for a number of seasons but it had appeared he would be staying at Old Trafford this summer.

However, Don Balon claim the Spaniard want to being his spell at United to an end and manager Jose Mourinho is already preparing for life without him.

Skysport

If this news is true United should not bother pacifying De Gea anymore. Perez should pay £75 million minimum . Some of these spanish guys can be ungrateful.

raumdeuter:
WHo were the semi finalists in 2016

Sorry i meant finalists not semis

Leyqute:
City working to sign mbappe

Seriously?

How does buying Mbappe solve city defensive woes? Concerned Fans and Managers of the EPL needs to have a round-table talk with these city guys? After several millions they haven't even tasted UCL finals. I have been complaining about United these past few seasons but Guardiola seems to be extremely clueless in my opinion.

BREAKING NEWS

Manchester United have confirmed Adnan Januzaj has left the club to join Real Sociedad. skysport

We wish you the best Adnan.

sinizia:
Now, when you kept on with your evasive tactics I went to dig up where Alves apologized City/Guardiola about bailing out on them. What else do you want to argue about. Why is he apologising to City? Because Guardiola wanted to date his sister and his said no? Or because Txiki wanted to organise an ørgy with his newly wedded wife and he said yes only to say no?

@the Bolded is savage . Cant stop laughing. Egbon Dayo at this junction its better you keep quiet , stop arguing for arguement sake. Dont let your ego get bruised any further.

The devil has been whispering in my ears that Luke Shaw will come up with another injury during this preseason tour......Devil i bind you o, holy ghooost fire..

Seriously i wish the guy can be injury free for once, he could be ruling the EPL by now.

I dont understand what some fans on this thread really want

United Bids for Morata: You hear stuffs like how can United buy a bench-warmer in Madrid for £70 million.

United Bids for Lukaku: You hear he has terrible first touch,he lacks technical skills at £75 million pounds he is outrageous.


Seriously we need to be realistic with our expectations. The days of cherry-picking players from other Epl clubs because of our sole dominance has ended. The prices you see are the realities of today's market. Congrat to Manchester United ,i guess this is the surprise mourhino meant.

From Multiple Sources

Manchester United are closing in on the biggest move of the summer as they prepare to hijack Chelsea's world record £100m move for Everton striker Romelu Lukaku, 24. (BBC)

Personally i think £100million is outrageous. Woodward should spend £15million on Chicharito thats 15 goals a season guaranteed. I hope this claim is not true or else woodward will bankrupt this club.

Happy birthday to Obainojazz, may your jazz work for united this season.

From the look of things , i am not sure Rooney is going away this season and that is not good for this team from my point of view.

Funlord2:
Thanks jaykaymaybachz! I don't know why I can't quote your post? Maybe it glo and their b.s....

Happy birthday man, may God bless your new age

GloryIsaac:
Sergie Aurier though..Means Fabinho would be for Cdm only or prolly not coming .

Just another rumour. Until he is officially announced believe any of these news at your own risk.

HEFaya:

UTD CONSIDERING SHOCK DE ROON MOVE ------Skysport

"Manchester United are interested in signing Middlesbrough midfielder Marten de Roon, reports the Daily Express.

The report suggests Jose Mourinho is keen on strengthening his midfield options at Old Trafford and De Roon could emerge as a shock target.

Middlesbrough are thought to want around £9m for the 26-year-old."

Its Another day and another rumor,this one even has a lower rating compared to Fellaini

Claroo:
Been watching him too, the guy is not special. Fellaini is beta dan him

You people are wicked sha,wetin concern Baba Fella for this matter naa. The guy don suffer, wether you like it or not he is making first team next season.

Oasis007:
Left back?! I think the Position is fairly covered. United have Shaw, Rojo, Blind and even Darmian for the Position already.

I agree thats one of the most covered position in United, however are they world class left backs? When are we going to have a left back in the mold of evra?

PEREZ: NO UTD TALKS WITH MORATA

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has confirmed that his club has not held talks with Manchester United over the transfer of Alvaro Morata.

"I believe we are not negotiating with Manchester United, which does not mean that there are not people around him who are talking, which is normal," Perez told El Primer Palo radio.

"I have read that we have reached an agreement for I don't know how many million Euros, but it is not true."


Instead of allowing Madrid to troll us why cant we focus on Auba, Lacazette,Sanchez and other strikers in the market. I really hope Perez is not on a revenge mission, if this deal keeps dragging Woodward will enter panic mode soon enough and we should avoid that.

Three reasons why Chelsea’s Nemanja Matic is exactly what Manchester United need
Written by Sam Leveridge

Manchester United are nearing a deal with a Chelsea to bring midfielder Nemanja Magic to Old Trafford, according to ESPN.
If true, it will see a reunion between the Serbian international and Jose Mourinho after he brought him back to west London having been sold to Benfica.

The news comes after Matic was hugely influential as a key first team player for Antonio Conte as Chelsea romped to the Premier League title in 2016/17, shrugging off the challenge of rivals like United in the process. However, the likely arrival of Tiemoue Bakayoko could see Matic lose his place as a regular starter and with just one year left on his current contract, Chelsea may look to cash in while they can.
Here are three reasons why he would be a great signing for United…

He’s a player Jose Mourinho knows and trusts
In his first season at Old Trafford, one of the biggest issues for Jose Mourinho has been identifying which players he can count on. The likes of Luke Shaw, Chris Smalling, Anthony Martial and Wayne Rooney have all suffered, but now Mourinho will be keen to have a squad of players he knows well and trusts.
Matic made 90 appearances under Mourinho during their time together at Chelsea and became his crucial midfield enforcer. Mourinho displayed trust in Matic then, handing responsibility to his midfielder, and he will want that at Old Trafford too.
With few other proven Premier League players available in the same mould as Matic, he is a reliable addition to the United squad.

Matic will add a goal threat from deep
While Ander Herrera and Marouane Fellaini, the regular midfield duo in 2016/17, registered six goals and 11 assists in 97 games between them, Matic scored twice and recorded nine assists in just 40 games. Matic is more than capable of releasing a thunderbolt from distance, as Tottenham found out in the FA Cup semi-final. That’s a skill which is sorely lacking in the United midfield, leaving them forced to try to penetrate and break down lesser sides who came to Old Trafford content to play for a draw.

This season has also shown the 28-year-old to be a creative force. His vision and passing from deep was crucial to kick start moves from as soon as possession was won and start moves on the counter-attack; something bound to appeal to Mourinho.

He’s got experience at the very top of the Premier League
With two Premier League winners’ medals from the past three seasons, Nemanja Matic knows exactly what it takes to win the trophy that United fans desperately crave.
Whilst that is not something lacking in the stands and amongst the staff at Old Trafford, it is missing in midfield. The likes of Andre Herrera, Marouane Fellaini and Paul Pogba have all joined since the Sir Alex Ferguson era came to an end and with Michael Carrick’s role ever decreasing, the experienced head of Matic will be more than welcome.

Whilst Herrera has been impressive this season, he would be allowed more freedom to roam forward with an experienced player like Matic alongside him. With Marouane Fellaini, it’s not an option, partly in terms of experience and partly in terms of quality.

Diademk07:
It's rumoured that Matic will have his medical in few hours.

The rumor is very strong. Well we have to trust the manager on this one, i guess he is opting for trusted hands.

Diademk07:
Naianggolan is a box-box CM, not a CDM. He's not even that good, he was rubbish at the Euro.

Naingolan
Marquinhos
Varane
Semedo
James
Kane
Lewandowski
Ronaldo
Bale
Fabinho
Matic
Belloti
Morata
Mbappe
Perisic
Lukaku
Verrati
Danny Rose
Gelson Martin
Bernardeschi
Jodi alba
Andre Gomes
You add yours.....

The number of players linked to us this transfer window is enough to bankrupt the worldbank. Me i no dey bother again till transfer window closes.

kizolo:
We've shown interest in signing Naianggolan of Roma!! That guy is a perfect signing for the DMF. Pogba,Naianggolan and Herrera midfield would be bomb IMO. What do you think guys?

Until we get back to the top in the EPL/UCL and until we stop spending mega money on average players or stop boasting about how much we have in our war chest we wont stop having these kind of news. Its really sad, even the tabloids are using us to sell papers and generate clicks, there is so much expectation from us. Even those Chelsea fans know where we belong,hence the insecurity i see in them here

But i believe my United will rise again,its a matter of time.

Diademk07:
Let's just bring in Mbappe, Fabinho, Romeu for the ST, RB, CDM roles respectively and call it a day in the window. A pipe dream though.

Monaco will be very unwise to let Bernado silva, Mbappe, Bakayoko and Fabinho leave within thesame season

MOURINHO MASTERSTROKE? MAN UTD HAVE JUST SIGNED THE KEY JUVENTUS MAN

June 23, 2017 · by beka · in Daily News, Manchester United, United News

Manchester United are set to appoint Javier Ribalta in a leading position involving player recruitment after he left his role as the head of scouting at Juventus.

Ribalta, who has previously worked at Liverpool during Rafa Benitez’s reign, led Juve’s scouting network for five years and has been credited as one of the key figures behind their deals for Paul Pogba, Paulo Dybala, Alex Sandro and Dani Alves.

The 36-year-old was also responsible for the signing of Alvaro Morata, one of Manchester United’s key targets this summer, and personally helped the Spain striker settle in Italy before he was sold back to Real Madrid for a profit last year

According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Ribalta will have a ‘significant role’ in United’s transfer business and will oversee which players are targeted alongside Jose Mourinho and executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward.
