Yes to Sandro at that price.

I mean I imagine Martial will be the one who's sold. And I know it's a smaller thing, but Martial wears the number Bale does.
I still think we could do with one extra body in attack, so Bale could complement what we have. It doesn't have to be 1 in, 1 out but I think it will be.
If he could stay fit, but oh well. We makes the same mistakes again and again
Like feck he does. He's a disaster defensively. The moment the ball or the opponent is behind him it might as well not exist. HE is the reason we play with Casemiro
Deal
Yeah he was. I remember laughing at him and all his acolytes that were 100% convinced that Fabinho was coming here and not Matic. Not sure how he's tried spinning the situation after the fact, but at the time he wasn't one claiming we'd get Matic and it was seen at British media vs Di Marzio's crew.
That's because muppets can't read. If a journo says "club is interested in player X negotiations ongoing with his club, deal appears to be close" what they read is "CLUB IS SIGNING PLAYER X, WILL BE ANNOUNCED AS SOON AS THE ASIAN MARKETS OPEN AND HE'S TRAVELING ON PLANE XYZ, TRACK IT DOWN!!!!"
He's a top player when fit but I categorically do not want Bale at United.
- He has aforementioned fitness issues - he was missing the crucial WC qualifiers for Wales and the CL Final in Cardiff, the fact he wasn't even fit for these games in which he would most want to play is worrying
- He has shown no desire to join United up to this point, despite being wanted/linked in the past. He has always wanted to play for Madrid and the thought of us signing him for a hefty fee and on astronomical wages sickens me.
- He would hinder at least one of Rashford/Martial our forward line is stacked as it is ad there isn't the space for everyone to play.
- Doing business with Real is like doing a deal with the devil - we shouldn't even entertain it after the De Gea fiasco, they will never give up on singing him and will instead make us pay way over the odds, as they tried to with Morata (thankfully).
- That awful haircut (need I say more).
He's also a lot slower.
That explosiveness has deserted him. His movement has improved though.

Free numbers for Martial:
10 (won't go to Martial in a million years - more likely to go to Rashford or a new signing in a years time)
13 (number is synonymous with a reserve keeper in my mind)
14 (if Lingard gets 10)
16 (number synonymous with a midfielder for me after Keano and Carrick)
19 (if Rashford gets 10)
Wouldn't look great for his future. How often does a first team squad player lose their first XI number once - never mind twice - and still have a long term future at a club? Pastore is the only name that comes to mind and he reportedly voluntarily gave it up for Neymar plus with them signing Di Maria and Draxler, Pastore's PSG future was pretty much over anyway.
Exactly. The reports he was miffed over losing 9 were annoying enough. If he loses 11, he's gone.
Do we need another left sided attacker ? I personally believe Jose wont sign an attacker this summer. A mid and a LB will be our top priority.
I doubt we're going for Bale, but even if we do, surely he'd get #10?
I was aware of the above. Fabinho even hinted at a move to United on Brazilian TV:

Then when you look at how the Matic situation developed:
https://www.manchestereveningnews.c...all-news/man-utd-transfer-news-matic-13851807
Mourinho was specifically called by Matic's agent asking if he was interested.
So there is nothing suggesting that Di Marzio was in the wrong, and there is actually evidence that Di Marzio is actually one step ahead of most with the Pogba and Sanchez deals being an 'exclusive' to him due to his agent links.
Of Course no-one is infallible; but that doesn't mean you take every rumour with the same level of skepticism. I take every transfer rumour with a pinch of salt; but different rumours get different levels of salt
They need to invest into their defense a lot more. The only Champions League Barzagli should be playing in is Concacaf.
I doubt your redcafe name
Any transfer has to involve Dybala or Bentancur .
Kill this rumour with fire, unless we have a sponorship deal wuith a Glue factory.
This would be a solid signing, he's no Marcelo or Alaba but he's one of the best of the rest.
To be fair, I didn't say I believed all of the rumors.
Vidal, Bale ad Ghoulam all popped up in the same day.
Juventus can't buy Martial. He's completely out of their price range.
We will probably sell him for €16m and call it a good deal as it would mean a reduced wage bill.
They'll sell Dybala for €150m and then offer €60m for Martial.
Martial is one of many names mentioned in Italian media as part of summer "overhaul" at Juve after the loss to Real
Darmian, Bernat, Hector, Digne, Can, Savic, Rabiot and Martial according to Tuttosport
Darmian, Caldara, Spinazzola, Sokratis and Marchetti according to CdS
Griezmann, Gimenez, Darmian and Cristiante according to GdS
Some of these players like Griezmann, SMS, Rabiot and Martial look unattainable for Juve. I'm sure they can have Darmian tho

Caldara is joining in the summer and Spinazzola is out on loan from Juve. It's possible of course that Alex Sandro leaves but i think Asamoah might leave. Not sure about midfield, think it's just a case of them wanting to strengthen rather than anyone particular leavning.Martial is one of many names mentioned in Italian media as part of summer "overhaul" at Juve after the loss to Real

He would be one of the last names out the door if it were up to me but I guess swapping him for Dybala wouldn't be the worst deal.
Don't be silly, it'll be a year's loan of course
If it was between selling him or loaning him to a top club for a season, crazy as that is, I'd go for the latter
Exactly, not happening.
I can't really see how we could fit Dybala into this team without going with 2 up front and we don't have the team for that. At best they could offer Sandro + megabucks. But they don't have the megabucks.
Teams that could buy Martial outside of the few Prem clubs that compete for titles would be Real, Barca and PSG. No one else has that kind of money.
Personally the signing of Courtois(and Leno or Alisson) does not excite me at all. If it can not be De Gea I think I'd prefer to stay with Navas and give Zidane's son a chance in a couple of years.
If you pay Alexis 23 million euros net per year, surely you can match Bale´s wages.
Kroos is fantastic but now he earns 10 million euros net, an amount that many English teams can surpass easily. He cost around 30 million. If we wants to go and we get more than 120/140 million for him it would be a great deal.
Keeping all the players sounds very nice but I think Madrid have to be realistic with the market situation, and continue with the model of signing the best attackers and being lucky / clever when reinforcing other positions.
Would be seriously annoyed if we sign Bale and sell Martial.
If we didn’t sign Sanchez then maybe I would have been slightly up for it as it would mean Martial/Rashford could occupy the left spot and Bale on right when fit.

What? With the same logic we have Sanchez on the left and Bale on the right. I mean I don't want Martial gone but I don't really think Bale is the one who would cut down his game time. We have space for a second striker and a backup left winger. It's between Martial and Rashford for that spot. Now if Martial showed any comfort on the right wing or a desire to play there I'd certainly give him time to adapt there but I haven't seen much from Mourinho or Martial that shows that interest
Think Martial did okay in the right against Newcastle and first half at Spurs.
True.
Le10Sport says we're after Sidibe (Mirror assumes as replacement for Shaw)
He can play left back decently. The thing is Shaw is not exactly our first choice, and it seems like Sidebe is more of Valencia successor given Valencia looks like being on the decline.
He's better than Alaba or at least he has been the last few seasons. Had a dip in form this season and hasn't reached the same levels but neither have Juventus as a team while Alaba has looked disinterested and average since Pep left. Not sure whether it's because he wants to play CM so much and is just going through the motions or he's just gone stale.
