My thoughts on the Muller story... What happens to Rooney? LVG clearly sees him as on the wain! Wouldn't be surprised to see the captaincy go to a midfielder after tour.
Also, with Adidas coming in this year, I think they'll be pushing for a BIG star to present in their kit. Can see one of Muller, Bale or Ronaldo as that person.
 
I agree, it'd be a statement of intent, but in this case we're talking about another huge club that doesn't need the money. Even if by some chance Muller is keen to move, Bayern simply couldn't afford to lose him this summer after the Schweiny sale. It's similar to our pursuit of Ramos - even if it's true that he wants to leave, Perez won't risk the fans' backlash after basically forcing Casillas to leave. (Bayern didn't force Schweiny to leave, but you get my point)
I get your point. However, Bayern are like any club, just like United is. We're all resigned to DeGea leaving because he wants to go to Real. The same pressure can applied to Bayern, because United have the money to compensate Mueller far beyond what they can.

Nothing happens to Rooney. Muller would play right of the front three as he does for Bayern and Germany if he came and when Rooney is out he plays through the middle.
Would actually be perfect. He is just unobtainable.

A few differences with us and De Gea situation. For one, Muller has a contract untill 2019. The other is that Bayern is run by it's supporters. Rummenigge directly anwers to them, he can't just make promises and not keep them. Bayern also have plenty of money, their revenue isn't that far from ours. Last financial reports they were above Barcelona in revenue.
 
Paddy has just done it on MUTV with the 'I think we are in for a real surprise in the next week or 10 days' or words to that effect. Said it during the PC show for anyone who wants to watch a repeat.
 
I don't think there is anything in this £100 million bid stuff.

Good point, and I think the report is probably nonsense (Can anyone verify the validity or reliability if the source, I'm certainly not skilled enough to). However, I'll stand by my point, if United went in with a hundred million bid, the wages must be enormous, enough to turn a head.

It's not the same. In case of ddg and Ronaldo there was an intention to leave from the player whereas muller won't have the same need. And rummenige wouldn't sell a fan favourite too.

Think of it this way. Do you think United would have sold Giggs or scholes in their prime for any fee? They wouldn't. They were well paid, they were winning, playing under a top coach, in the club they played since their teens. They are well settled and they won't want to move. Same with muller

This is awkward. LVG said he'll be our main striker this season in a press conference...
 
Again similar to the bale thread I just don't understand people that don't want deals like this to take place. I understand it's a considerable sum of money, but if we can afford it then why the hell would people not want players of the quality of Bale or muller. Both of these players would elevate us to title favourites alongside Chelsea so what are the reasons people wouldn't want such players. Think about it on the footballing side not the financial side, that way ist way more exciting,
 
He clearly is one who has been played out of position over the years.
Agree completely. I really want out of the Twitter thread and not get banned, so I'll just quickly say, I think Mueller is the closest thing to Rooney in the modern game I've seen, they're not the same like for like, but as a Rooney replacement, he's the best I've seen.

I would very much agree with this
 
He's worth about 50m quid imo....not 70 as the tweet suggests. And frankly, the only reason he is that expensive is because he's a Bayern/German golden boy. Otherwise you could easily knock 10-15m off the price.
He has always been a better player than Di Maria (even in Di Marias' best year). If Di Maria cost 60m pounds no idea how you think that Muller should cost 35-50m euro (which would be 25-35m pounds, a bit similar of what Shaw/Herrera/Benteke cost).
