We're obviously buying Jones, Young & De Gea. And we're possibly getting Cleverly & Wellbeck back. So I guess that would be the end of this summer's business.
Are United done after De Gea, Jones and Young?
- Thread starter Rams
- Start date
None of those transfers are confirmed and Welbeck is being linked with a loan move. My thought is no.
SAF said he was looking to buy three players. Jones wasn't in those plans.

Rams:
I wouldn't be too disappointed, but if we could get one of Nasri/Modric/Sneijder/some other quality CM we'd be incredible.
Is that borne out of hope? Pessimism? Or you think that's adequate business done for the summer?
I think several grown men just lost their erections.
Well.. Jones was even pictured leaving his medical at Carrington and Fergie himself has already admitted we're buying De Gea & Young. So I guess that's about 50odd million spent. Not sure if it's healthy for the club to spend more. Also, I think we should be buying young English players if possible.
I think Young has really come on the last season or so and I think he might surprise a few. He's probably England's most technically accomplished player at the moment (..now that Scholes has retired). Haven't seen enough of the other two to comment.
I would have liked to have seen a player like Modric or Nasri, who are proven in the EPL and would help us keep possession better, but maybe Cleverly could develop like that.
Jones isn't one of the three that Fergie hinted at wanting.
He was forced to advance that deal in light of Liverpool's/Arsenal's interest. I think it'll be Jones, De Gea, Young, plus a Central Midfielder.
But in the event that we lose Gibson, O'Shea and Brown (who collectively would cancel out the Jones transfer in terms of fees), a further signing wouldn't surprise me.

Here's a thought....
go feck yourself.
go feck yourself.
can't see that been the end of it, people seem to be using a Sir Alex quote base our shopping list around 3 players, he actually said he would be looking to bring in atleast 3 players which would suggest to me that we will sign more especially when you consider that Jones was not planned to be signed untill next summer.
When was this?
possible
classic gif...
there's a good chance we cant or won't get Sneijder, Modric or Nasri
who are going to be our next set of realistic midifeld targets? we need at least one top midfielder and the likes of rodwell isnt it

Scholes retiring wasn't in our plans either. So it's hard to say what our plans our now. Thats what makes it fun.
Three good signings and yet....CM would still be weak and looks set to get weaker with Scholes retirement and Giggs ageing another year. Id love to see us add a quality CM to that. We really need that.
Who has been messing with me fred?
