Newcastle Chronicle: Newcastle United move appeals to Charlie Austin - and club are closing in on striker.
Schneirdeline is a better fit for Van Gaal's side. Krycha would blossom in Fergies team.
Ask @Sarni too.

#Mercadodepases Gran incorporación de Manchester United. Anuncian acuerdo en Inglaterra con Hoffenheim por Roberto Firmino (€18 millones).
Translation: Great incorporation of Manchester United. They've announced agreement for Roberto Firmino (€18m) in England
Am i the only one who's missed this announcement?
According to Express + Metro... but they cite 'according to ESPN' and it seems to come from some random ESPN Brazil journo.
Firmino would be a great addition to the team. Looked handy whenever I've seen him play, and I'm sure I saw in the paper a few days ago that he came 3rd in the list of most successful dribbles in Europe last season after Messi and Hazard. We need a player like that who can beat a man without having to spend 2 minutes passing it back and forth across the pitch!
What the hell happened to Micah Richards, he was a beast not so long ago, England regular. It's weird how some players that have a big future just fall off the face of the earth.
Injury prone and was half way between being a RB and a CB. I didn't think he was that good though.
I think Richards was mostly down to hype. He was a superb athlete at such a young age and most were inclined to ignore his actual footballing ability for that fact alone. Still think he could have turned out a bit better than he did though.
Awfully reliant on his physicality, which is the sign of a midtable defender really. Should be decent for Villa if he can stay fit.
I agree but it's destined to be dead in the water in a week's time when he signs for _____(insert whoever from Juve, Barca etc).
Yeah suppose he was over hyped a bit (typical British youngster) injuries did ruin him I guess
The Danny Welbeck of defenders
Why is no one else after Geis? £7m is a bargain for a player who will be worth triple that in a year's time.
For those of you who wants to see Ze Elias talk about Firmino to United from earlier.

So apart from the youngsters, the same deal he had at us.
The translation of that is;
Zé Elias: ' Firmino must go to Manchester United for 18 million euros
That's not necessarily that it's a done deal.
Do we have any Portuguese speakers on the Caf that can clear up the context or language structure to understand if that's suggesting it's a done deal or not?
If we expect him to shine at the Copa, tying the deal up before the tournament kicks off makes financial sense. The risk is injury thereafter though.
So nothing new people, just same all boring stuff?
Good signing for Villa. I didn't realise he was only 26. He seems to have been around for ever.
He looked dead cert for Dortmund for a while with Tuchel arriving and the club wanting to strenghten in midfield with Gundogan leaving.
Seems like Schalke are ahead in the race though.
Shame our deal with them didn't involve a loan of Januzaj, or someone.
I wouldn't pay any more than that for him.
He says:
"O Firmino já estaria certo com o Manchester. Manchester United, por 18 milhões de euros"
The exact translation would be that Firmino already has everything set with Manchester United for 18mi euros. And he sayd something about him having n upgrade on his Adidas contract, becoming their third most endorsed player.
What do you make of it, reliable?
Was you happy when we paid that for Shaw?
Oh, and Zé Elias also claim they are discussing if the exams could be made while he is with the Seleção, and be unveiled after the Copa América.
Zé Elias is an ex-player, so he must have a lot of contacts. But he's starting in his new career, so I really wouldn't have any info on him being actually reliable. ESPN tends to be more serious about this stuff.
Is hard to say, really. But I would give the benefit of the doubt.
Please let them bleed City for £45-50m.
cheers for the translation/info @Danillaco.
Thanks. Interesting that he says that the medical may be done whilst he is with the Brazil squad.
It means "should", not "must".
I have to agree how can you say a player is a £50m player and only offer him £100k/week? £50m players are on at least twice that.
Lfc are a joke
Just my opinion. Don't think he's worth anywhere near 40-50 million.
Still can't see City bidding more than £40m for Sterling. I think even they have more sense than that.
