Simao Sabrosa? I prefer Joaquin if that is possible. Even better, get that Dutch youngster Romeo Castelen. Highly skillful. 20m for Torres not possible. Don’t think he will be let go by A.Madrid for just 20m. Maybe can try to get Hargreaves also? I think he’s not bad playing that DM role for England.. Wasted lose out on Cicinho deal last time.. Is Evra gonna be any good? In FM he is good. Lets hope he is good.. Man U defence not too bad.. Centre Midfield is a disapointment.. Who you guys think Man U should get for Centre Midfield? Park Ji Sung not too bad..

Heh. I don't understand why Fergies should splash out for big money transfer when the future of the team is slowly emerging.
Take a look at Rossi, Pique, Richardson and Jones.
They are the players for United's future.
Sell Ruud and get Torres.
Let Richardson shine at the left wing. Wink

Cheers.

True.

Maybe if C.Ronaldo really leaving, can swap for Beckham back. Then we will have nice set-piece and beautiful cross again till he retire.

But thats impossible, i'm dreaming Embarassed Mr. Green

Agenda SG

Now everyone wants Simao, It will reach a point where Manu and CHelsea will start a bidding war for him then Chelsea get a deal for him around 21m then Newcastle comes in with a hijacking 28m offer Laughing

Rossi signs new Manchester United deal

Manchester United striker Giuseppe Rossi has signed a two-year extension to his contract.

The American-born 19-year-old joined United from Parma two years ago, and has been on the fringes of the first-team set-up at Old Trafford.

He scored twice in a 5-0 defeat of Burton in the FA Cup third-round replay in January, before going on to make his first Premiership start against Charlton in May in the absence of Ruud van Nistelrooy, who was dropped after a fall-out with manager Sir Alex Ferguson.

The new deal means Rossi is tied to the club until June 2010.

Ferguson said: 'We are delighted that he has signed a new contract, he represents the future of the club.

'Last year he had a remarkable season and he is developing all the time. Giuseppe is a fantastic talent and we see a great future ahead.'

Rossi said: 'It is great to have extended my contract with the best team in the world. I just hope to keep progressing and developing my career.'

So many news/rumours, no signings, man utd real quiet...

Or should I be patient....

CKeer SG

This is standard Man U style.
Made alot of noise but no actions taken.
Unlike Aresenal n Chelsea.
Arsene Wenger is good wif transfer. He kept quiet when dealing with impressive players den when the deal is done, only den will the news be leaked out. Schemming.
Chelsea made alot of noise too but they get wad they wan.
I don't think Man United will sign any players.
I hoped for Ribery and Torres to join. Mr. Green

Cheers.

Dead_Man_Inc SG

hmm, i thought ribery said he want to join Lyon?

CKeer SG

Haha! Yes he did.
But no talks have been held however.
Which means United have the chance to sign him. Wink

Cheers.
C.K

The man who was death SG

lyon already sign kim kallstrom, dun think ribena will join them

CKeer SG

Laughing
I prefer milo.

But his performance against the Portugese side wasn't that impressive last nite.
The player that caught my eyes is Maniche.
He can defend, attack n packs power in his long range shot.
If only he can keep his shots down cos he could have actually scored a hat-trick last nite! Wink

Cheers.
