I find it strange that many here, apparently has played too much FM.
I don't think we will get a whole lot of new faces for the next season, but a couple.

I believe, with all honesty that we will get one in the back line (most likely full back) and one midtfielder.
Whoever it will be is just too random as I see it, since there are just too many possible options and who knows what the managing team and board has their eyes (and cash) on most.

Who I want: Messi, Ronaldo, Lahm, Alaba, Iniesta and Zlatan! PLS, if not we are fkd next season and i quit being a fan!! (This is how i read some comments here).
 
All my opinions:

Well sign 6 players.

Luke Shaw 27m 85k week
Marco Reus 33m
Lucas Moura 30m
Toni Kroos (close) 41m
William Carvalho
Bid will be lodged for Edison Cavani likely to be 40-50m.

We're looking at CB options too but will probably make a bid for solid relatively unknown players that will grow into the role.

Mangala and Fenando will go to City, City will try and hijack the Reus deal too but we should have that wrapped up by Wednesday.

You've been marked.
 
I'd presumed we'd bring in 3, maybe 4 players but I'm definitely inclined to believe the delusional whims of someone on an internet forum.

Oh didn't you know? We're selling Young to Barca for 60million, and Valencia back to Wigan for 65million. Nani is going to Athletico Madrid too for 20million.

SolidState told me earlier.

The Moura one i wouldn't bet on, but the Reus one I'd put a wager down if I had the cash.

Not only does it make so much sense it hurts, not only that but he was due to sign for Barca but since thier ban which won't be over turned his deal got immediately transferred over to us. We would compete anyway but with Barca out of the picture things will move super fast.

Just so you know, this kind of thing doesn't usually go down well.
 
Again I don't claim to have inside knowledge or anything and I don't wanna piss people off. It's just what I have observed and read/ been told. Which of course could all be bull.

Haha well heres hoping reus is a top player, but i will remain sceptical until i see it happen. ;)
 
How on earth can you possibly be of the opinion that Toni Kroos is "close" to signing, or that Reus will be done by Wednesday? Even if it's now your opinion it's still mental.
 
It's seriously daft, you won't last long if you get attention by claiming inside knowledge and then take a step back when someone questions you.

Hope I don't come across as a knob here, but you know as much as I do about United's dealings. Nothing.

It's just exciting isn't It, these are huge players and you have alot of stories flying around, people suggesting they know agents or officials at the clubs. Sometimes they get stuff wrong and so forth. Sometimes we get info.early. Remmeber how the Mata deal leaked and RVP. We've got fingers in alot of pies at the moment and not all of it is water tight.

Just my opinions and my excitement getting the better of me. Just thought I'd share what I've read and seen. Hope no one takes it the wrong way.

SolidState is fast becoming a legend. I very much look forward to his summer posting.

Haha my mates already take the piss over my over enthusiastic posts about transfers on Facebook.
 
SolidState should get the ITK tag, just to make sure we all know that he is one. Because he clearly is.
 
Can't fault your enthusiasm, but I can just see it breaking your heart in the summer, terribly. Then again, if this Reus deal happens on wednesday then you shall become an ITK legend. The good money says it won't though sadly.
 
Yep, Dortmund are going to sell Reus before 2015 for about the same price as his release clause :wenger: even if somehow they did sell him, they're not going to confirm it before their season has finished. Wednesday :lol: Need to try harder with your ITK attempts.

Reus has to be the most unrealistic transfer rumour we're involved in. He's been at Dortmund for just 2 years now almost. Dortmund is his hometown, boyhood club and they are second in the league and fighting for the champions league, and are sure to do both next season as well. They have one of the best crowds and stadiums in the world, and one of the best managers. Sure they might not be able to offer as much as us but we have Moyes at the helm, aren't in the champions league next season and probably won't compete for the title next year either. Not to mention he has a release clause that becomes active in 2015 like you say, and every club in the world will be interested in him.

He's up there with my favourite players currently, trust me I'd like to see him here as much as anybody :lol:
Gundogan, Shaw, Carvalho I can all realistically see getting though, and I really hope we do as we'd have an amazing starting 11 and squad if it happened, the strongest in the league actually. Gundogan I feel like it is just between him extending at Dortmund, or going to United. Barca's transfer ban really helps us there.
 
Lads, just wanted to apologize about my post last night, was probably really stupid. I was kind of on a come down after tucking away a bottle of Gin the night before, yes a whole bottle, still suffering now to be honest.

So since, I love this forum and use it all the time, I just wanted to clear up that I have no inside info or any claim to know anything, I literally took a few rumors and got completely carried away.

So since I still want to post here and not get banned, I just wanted to say sorry guys, learnt my lesson. Wont happen again.
