Eds, with Valdes being left out of the squad for the US tour, I can only assume he's likely to leave. If that's the case, is there any chance that De Gea may not be leaving or that he may sign a new contract?

{Ed001's Note - he was in talks with someone else, hence being left out. I believe he decided to stay though.}

but y we sell our 2gk same window i m little confused here . may be DDG staying


2.) 14 Jul 2015 13:11:19
Judging from Valdes' last Twitter post, doesn't look like he'll be going & may have a knock which has kept him out the tour

Ok, so this is the usual "a friend of a friend" type rumours & quite honestly is rehashing the same tired track we've heard enough so far, but a lad in my office claims he has a 'source' that's certain Kane will be joining us once RVP's off the books. I wouldn't hang my hat on it but can any of the eds give some insight?

{Ed004's Note - Hopefully your friend is telling the truth. It makes sense that we are trying to sign a striker though}

It's actually a rather concerning time with our options currently limited to Rooney and Wilson. Harry Kane would be a decent option but Levy will hike the price for what is, despite last season, still an unproven player. Benzema should be on the potentials list but that means yet again negotiating with Real Madrid. Gonzalo Higuain is awful. Let's hope they leave that well alone. I don't rate Cavani either and Sakho?! Please. No. If they were going to take a risk I'd rather bring in Richairo Zivkovic from Ajax.

Nervous times. No doubt there's a marquee signing in the wings, it's just a question of who it is, what position they play and what, realistically, they offer the team.


2.) 09 Jul 2015 19:55:02
Simon,

You really think we would allow these players to leave if we didn't have a plan for when they go? Nothing to worry about, it's actually making me more excited. The press have no idea what's going on.


3.) 09 Jul 2015 20:22:44
I hope Ed doesn't class Kane as a marquee signing.


4.) 09 Jul 2015 21:49:22
I'd like to see Kate in a united shirt, I'm just a bit worried about the price general levy is going to slap on him though


5.) 09 Jul 2015 21:58:38
!!!#$@@!#!! KANE@@!@????
We want Benzema or Lacazette or Lewandowski or that even that Son Heung-min from Bayer!! If Kane progresses, then I'm all 4 giving them £40m next season.
Then he would be worth it.
Rant over 😎


6.) 09 Jul 2015 22:21:00
Aswell as Kate I wouldn't mind kane


7.) 09 Jul 2015 22:58:10
Breakdowns now that would be a signing !!!!!


8.) 09 Jul 2015 23:14:27
Karen Benzema?


9.) 10 Jul 2015 00:50:02
Kate Breakdowns 😆 you watch the Daily Star and Metro will say we have made an £11 million bid for it tomorrow or in the Stars case three days after everyone else 😆😆

Ok, I'm actually just interested to see people's opinions on this one. Clearly, from reading the posts on here people are questioning why we haven't signed anyone yet, but I have a theory on this.
I believe we probably have wrapped up a few signings, however as long as Netherlands are still in the World Cup I don't think we'll hear any kind of confirmation regarding ANY transfers. In my opinion this is because if we did, LVG's pre match press conferences would become a media circus revolving around Manchester United, rather than them being about the Dutch squad & there World Cup preparations etc. Surely, the last thing LVG would want is for his focus during the World Cup to be constantly taken off his Dutch squad by having to answer a constant barrage of questions relating to new signings Manchester United have made.
Just my 2 cents on the matter but I'd be interested to see what everyone else's opinions on this are because a lot of people seem to be getting frustrated/concerned by the lack of signings so far. Personally, I believe the Shaw deal has been held up as Southampton have already confirmed losing Lambert & if they confirmed that Lallana/Shaw/Lovren had left they would be a less attractive proposition for any incoming manager.

Why do you have to talk such common sense!!?
I think you've hit the nail on the head there GPB
Great post!


2.) I think you're probably correct GPB.


3.) 17 Jun 2014 15:41:23
No, not having it, this is a time for mass panic and hysteria, nobody will sign for us, nobody likes Manchester United anymore and Ed Woodward is a turnip.


4.) I don't think Man Utd give a rats ass about Dutch press conferences. It is all to do with any signing being made today will be yesterdays news tomorrow with a world cup on. Utd board NEED the share price to go up and that means positive news being in the media as long as possible, it doesn't happen when a World Cup is on.

All major deals will be announced when we can get as much PR as possible from them which will be after the show has finished.


5.) Completely agree. Once the dutch world cup campaign is over and van gaal unveiled I reckon signings will be announced


6.) 17 Jun 2014 16:31:05
I would find it hard to believe that Utd have deals done and would be able to keep them quiet til after the World Cup with the way the media works these days there would have been leaks by now


7.) Bilko, there have been plenty of 'leaks'. Numerous people have said the Luke Shaw deal has been "done" for a while. It doesn't stop people saying it has fallen through just because nothing has been officially announced. It doesn't matter what us reported by the media, fans will call it a lie. "We're signing Vidal" LIES! "We're not signing anyone and the side will revolve around Anderson next year" LIES!. Let's just have faith that things are being done and that LvG will have his squad in shape in time for next season.


8.) GDS2, lol glad to see you stuck to your word and upped your game mate. That made me laugh. :)


9.) We may well have one or two in the bag, but I tend to agree with Beast here. We ensure we take every bit of publicity out of every event to keep us in the papers. Good for the sponsors too.


10.) Nice post mate, now if there's any plastic fans who are just in it for the glory and big names reading this then please read it carefully and grasp it because it makes so much more sense with a world cup going on than it does that we aren't going to sign anybody and ed woodward isn't doing his job right.

He's still with the club and is listed in the squad for the US tour on Utd's website

I wouldn't be too optimistic. I still believe this 'Big August 8th Announcement' will be that Ronaldo is coming home for one night only to play in Rio's testimonial game. Unles Usain Bolt's convinced Moyes to give him a contract haha
