I'm guessing he's working with one of the Ferguson clan. That son agent thing.

How comfortable.

Teletext & Ceefax have said the same thing. According to his agent he won't speak to anyone until his contract expires on June 30th.

Guess we'll have to wait then, If thats correct
 
It's true:

those contradictions make me sick

All a bit idiotic really. His contract is ending, he won't resign with Sunderland, maybe the clubs should settle this outside the tribunal. Ah who cares.
 
Fergie has been an admirer of him for some time now. As far as I know this was a done deal several months ago. Sunderland tried to play hardball and they fecked up. United just told him to bide his time and he would be at United, thats going to happen as soon as he is out of contract.
Sunderland will get a minimal fee as he is under 23 but not what they could have done.
This whole episode has been unsetling for him hence he has not had a lot of playing time plus I would not be surprised that he has not wanted to play a lot. ;) knowing what was around the corner.
 
He hasnt signed yet according to the manutd.com.

I think he will sign tho. I think Fergie see him as a good prospect for the future.

What? :rolleyes:

You want the team to be filled with nobodies? :confused:

It's all very well signing potential, but we NEED a 4th striker.
 
PPL about Bellion let us not fall again in the media trap as we did with Diego Forlan (when the media gave us the impression that the Uruguayan international is a sort of younger version of Batistuta). The French youngster has some good raw talent and is gifted with lightening pace but he is light years away from becoming the “next” Henry.

Bellion impressed SAF in one the youth tournaments held during last season. He is a good talent but should be considered as a first teamer in the youth academy and not a world class finishing product

Don't know about Malta, but in this country we don't stick 21 year olds in the Youth academy...

well that what news of the crap said about him. A natural scorer who is very similar to Batistuta
 
Surely he is far from being the finishing product. Bellion is a promising player but it will take us years before we can fully exploit his talents. A year or two in the reserves will not do him any harm

Were you a bit upset when we signed Solskjaer? A bit miffed maybe? ;)
 
Ive seen him play this season and he was the one jewel in an otherwise boring untalented sqaud.

The reports coming out of the french national team set up were interesting!!!!!

Plus we need pace up front!!!!!

and he has bags of it

Dare i say it the new Henry ;) ;) ;)
 
For God sake stop this new Henry taunt. Mind you I believe that Bellon will be a great player in the near future but let us not put pressure on him
