    I love the arrogance of this - the fourth team must be an English team!
    He said he was defiantly coming to the PL so I kind of assumed, wasn't trying to sound arrogant

    Is there an official one for BBC Football? I only have the general BBC Sports one added.

    If SAF is willing to spend major money on such a young player, then you know for sure that he's going to become a world class player. If we do buy him then I have confidence in Fergie's decision.

    It must be noted that its BBC Gossip that claims this. The same site also claimed we signed Henry.

    This 'Sky sources' stuff today, concerning Hazard - suggesting he prefers United. Will try and give some insight into this in next tweets
    Darren Can ‏@Darren_Can
    From what I know, it's not mercato365, anyone on Twitter or random guess work. Dharmesh Sheth (Man United fan) spoke to Michel Seydoux yday
    Darren Can ‏@Darren_Can
    Michel Seydoux appeared on camera as he agreed to give people an update on what was going on. Then, with camera off...
    Darren Can ‏@Darren_Can
    ..he may have said off the record that United has the edge. That's what constitutes 'sky sources'.
    Darren Can ‏@Darren_Can
    That said,Michel Seydoux may have just fed them a duff line. In the grand scheme of things,'Sky sources' isn't 100% fool proof. No source is


    Interesting. When I say interesting I mean a million times more interesting than revising the history of Britain:mad:

    Michael Owen linked with Stoke City. Would be a good fit, neither have played any football in years.

    :laugh: I had a good laugh at this for 4 minutes

    Its a fake bbc gossip. Dear me, at least look at how many followers an account has before quoting twitter.

    This will too. But will end worse as hell sign for our biggest rival or second biggest rival for the title instead of not moving.

    TBH, I said less than 12 hours ago that i cant see it, as we have no money. But as proved with Rooney, we will spend big on youth if they are good enough (albeit that was pre glazers). Plus the sticking point with wesley was not only wages but the fact hes older. Eden will have sell on value possibly a la ronaldo.

    Good point. If he does fulfil his potential then this is probably true but I'd hate for us to farm another world class player and sell him off to Madrid or Barca etc.

    Kagawa! Kagawa! Kagawa!

    We don't need Hazard :-)

    *Although, if we get him, I'll edit this and remove that last bit.

    On Fifa maybe i'd have Hazard over Kagawa but after seeing what kind of person Hazard is i would much prefer Kagawa, he seems like a nice guy he's cute

    I'd rather Kagawa than Hazard, and it seems likely we'l go for Kagawa only

    Would you still take Sneijder at united? he's had a disappointing season (though Inter have been poor generally), but he's still only 27 & such a quality player, would love to see him in the premiership.

    I'd take him if he came in at a reasonable price. He would be a top class addition to any squad. But Inter would never let him go at a reasonable price

    Sky Sports are claiming that Dortmund have set a fee of €20m for Kagawa.

    http://www1.skysports.com/football/n...t-Kagawa-price

    Yet, there is no mention of €20m. But it does look like they evidently want more than the €10m that was initially suggested.
