Isn't that mainly because Pep prefers Alonso to his system?
Bastian Schweinsteiger | Signed for MUFC - confirmed.
- Thread starter FC Ronaldo
- Start date
- Status
Or the difference in opinion from united fans if they had signed him.
If I was more of a muppet I'd nip down to OT.
But I can't be arsed.
But I can't be arsed.
Yep and help attract other top players.
Not true. If Bastian was fit he also played. Just alongside Alonso which didn't really work out that well. Anyway ask Bayern fans who they'd rather keep and who they think played better last season. Only few would say Alonso
Cant wait for the pics, the interview, the presentation 
What a beautiful day, hope Ana is with him.
What a beautiful day, hope Ana is with him.Do we know how much he really cost?
Oh don't get me wrong hes a crazy signing for us! Very pleased!
No, mutual agreement between the clubs. German media saying around 20m Euros.
He doesnt think he is past it really, he was joking. He said so after a while, he just wanted to get a reaction from United fans.
He does a pretty good job at that.
he has always done a good job United wumming
From some, maybe. Personally I would have been very displeased with it as he's top class.
Luckily for me though...
when does medical usually happen?
Schweincafe
Bluemoon think they have gazumped our Schweini day with the Sterling news.
Usually - I do not know.
About this: As Ortdepp is already "vor Ort"... - somewhen in the afternoon as the flight from Bastian out of some reasons was delayed. Guess Bastian has to pack some stuff...
Haha @Code-CX notifications must go mad. But his gifs get better every time.
Also the best news was waking up and seeing I didnt have a cruel dream about this happening yesterday

So arrives in the late afternoon, i hoped it would get announced soon.
Bizarrely both Sky and the Mail reported them as genuine quotes from Carragher last night. That's what journalism has come to currently.
Any chance if this becoming another Falcao?
No. And it will not get a Hargreaves either.
I always thought that he will not end his career at Bayern - but I had him with a transfer every year after the CL win. And I think he did not do it because of the injury streak he was in.
The photo above is good. The All-Star-Match. He got another knock then and that is when they decided to get him out of the football circus for some months to really get the problems out.
That he is making the transfer now for me shows that the old problems are gone - else he would not risk the transfer. Even if he does not get a spring chicken right now. And other injuries can happen to anybody of any age.
@Klaas, any private jets flying in from Munich?
There was one last night due but it never showed up (same plane is heading to Northolt from Munich now) - My friend isn't working today so I can't check.
Nothing is happening until he's had his medical.
Liebe Fans, ich möchte mich bei euch für die unglaublichen gemeinsamen Jahre beim FC Bayern München bedanken!
Dear Fans, after 15 incredible years at FC Bayern, 15 national titles, winning the historical triple and uncountable other highlights that I was fortunate enough to experience with my incredible team, all you exceptional fans and the co-workers at Säbener Straße and Allianz Arena, I have decided to take a new career step. This decision was very hard to make because you and FCB have, are and will always be an extremely important part of my life.
Nevertheless, I would like to again gain experience at a new club. My destination is Manchester United. I hope you understand my decision. No one can take away the incredible journey we had together. #MiaSanMia

He is on his way
I hope he sorts out his medical today, I don't want to have to wait until tomorrow to see him in a United shirt dammit!
Who's on flight tracking duty tonight?
So this is all but confirmed? So far United, Bayern and Schweini has confirmed the transfer?
It's time for tracking the flight again guys
Of course, just a medical to sort out and it's done.
I'm gonna crack open a beer the moment he signs
Bild on Sunday say he just cost 15m Euros, so 10-11m pounds. What a bargain.
