Bebe. Zaha is also looking like he may not have the right mentality for this level of football.

To be honest i forgot about Bebe even playing for us, alright fair enough since most people consider him a failure lets add him to the list of failures for a grand total of three, two of which were punts that cost around £10m combined.

Zaha seriously? How can he be seen as a failure up to this point, don't think hes even played 90mins for us yet. Lets give the lad a chance before branding him a failure, LVG may get the best out of him yet.
 
We can let Evra go on a free to Juve as a goodwill gesture for letting us have Vidal without too much fuss :)
Surely there would be a gentlemans agreement on negotiations for Vidal. :drool:
We must be in for another LB then we are leaving ourselves with 1.
What's this Rodriguez like?
 
If true, this is turning into a brilliant summer for us. Liverpool and City lose their best players from last season, we sack Moyes and bring in LvG and actually sign a midfielder (plus others)

Summer 2014 is the anti-Summer 2013

What do they say? Don't count your chickens before they hatch?

Liverpool have made some decent signing and with the money they'll get they can buy one or more good players (including a striker). If Toure goes, City will buy one or two top replacements. Money no option.
 
The only reason why we didn't get many top players in the last years is because Fergie and Gill refused to pay what was required.

If you think that players didn't want to play for probably the club with the biggest fanbase in the world, the most successful club in the most watched league in the world and under the arguably best manager in history, you are having a laugh.

Probably orders from the Glazers.
 
Probably orders from the Glazers.
While I doubt that the Glazers ever came knocking with a warchest of money to spend, I do get the feeling that Fergie was quite happy not to spend huge. Maybe a reaction to claims of him being a cheque book manager or as proof that you didn't need sugar daddies to win leagues.

Fergie was United's biggest asset for the majority of the Glazers reign, he could have held the club to ransom for transfer funds if he felt more needed to be spent. He did the opposite and came out and said the Glazers were great people to work for and completely supported him.
 


Juventus intend to acquire Evra, Morata and Iturbe to give Conte the right players to change the tactic. Today there’ll be a new contact with Manchester United for Evra, the deal could be closed for €2M. The French fullback is a specialist of the four-man defense. Iturbe arrived at Rio De Janeiro to meet his agent, the next days will be the decisive ones: he’d be the offensive winger. Morata can play in every position in the attack. The mission in Madrid of the agents Bozzo and Lopez is giving good results, the parties are closer, they are refining the add-ons and the buy-back clause that Real want, maybe Marotta will have to raise the fee a little. Is there the risk that one between Pogba and Vidal will leave? As for now, no: the signals go in the opposite direction, also for Vidal, who is the most rumoured one in these days. He’s targeted by Manchester United, but only an incredible offer might change Juventus’ decision: it’s hard to find a worthy replacement who guarantees goals, excellent performances and personality like Vidal. Anyway, Juventus want to add a midfielder in any case: an energy player, but not too expensive. Guarin no longer seems an option, while they have an agreement with the mother-agent of Rabiot, but PSG don’t want to negotiate now with the team that pried away Coman without ceremony. Waiting to find the possible fourth player who could join, Juventus want to complete three purchases.
 
Translation?

I'll try and find a translated article and put the relevant bits in.

No need to translate mate. The site has a default English option. Here :

Having the money is one thing, actually getting in another player the level of a Suarez or a Yaya is something else entirely. Like I said though, it's an "if true" scenario right now. But if it does happen its a massive blow for City.
 
They won't sell. It just doesn't make any sense to them and Vidal loves Juventus. It's hard to imagine how we can wrap this up. Money talks but I'm not sure we are willing or able to spend what would be necessary to even tempt Juventus to think about selling him.

Only €40-45m would give united a chance in my opinion.
