Just don't see Jose putting up with Torres' shit performances. I'm as big a fan of Lukaku as anyone, but he's not quite ready to be the unquestioned top dog at a club challenging for every major trophy. If we don't sign Rooney, someone must be bought up front.

Better have Liverpool's # at the ready. Honestly wouldn't put it past these fuckers at United to refuse a player a move even if he puts in a transfer request. They know they're in trouble next season with Fergie gone and are literally terrified of what Rooney will do for us. Suarez wouldn't be the worst fall back option.

I don't rate Jovetic very highly and feel he's been grossly overhyped. Fernandinho I feel will be great for them and make their midfield even more formidable. Navas is the one who I think will surprise everyone. If he settles nicely I think he'll be a real handful for most teams.Their back 4 is probably the best in the league. Also can't see Aguero having another down year. City are the team to beat currently.

That side Skipper posted does look insane to be fair. Great defense, immense central midfield, top class attacking midfield, and a world class striker. Still think City will be our bogey side. That is unless we make those two additions I mentioned above. If the season started tomorrow without us making any more signings I think we'd still be behind City slightly. Roo loves playing against them though and I'd love to see De Rossi own Yaya.

We add Rooney and DDR and I think we'll be seeing one hell of a 3 way title race. Also may see 3 english sides make very deep CL runs.

You have to admit it sounds a bit fishy.Scheduling another friendly out of the blue and with us likely loaning them a great young prospect in Wallace.

And with that, City have spent nearly £100m this window. Incredible for a squad that was ALREADY the highest paid/most expensive. Their 4th choice striker may be as good or better than our 1st choice one.

He can take Torres' #9.Give Torres a # in the 80's to send him the message that he isn't wanted.

I expect Moyes to come out and say he ain't for sale again today. Until Rooney puts in a transfer request nothing's gonna happen.

Just as I predicted earlier today: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/gareth-bale-transfer-manchester-united-2060737 They'll use Bale to soften the blow of losing Rooney and to appease the angry fans. This is why the guy flew out of Australia I think. Us bidding for Rooney probably sped up the process of them going for him.

Have a feeling he'll be making plenty of opposition fans jealous of us this season just like Hazard did last year. They'll overlook him at first but when he carves them apart with laser passes they'll know what's up.

Hope so mate. He'll be a great player if we get him.

If we've bid between 20m-25m and Arsenal come in with 30m or more, United would probably say its either Arsenal or nowhere.They'd much rather sell him there than to us.

Yeah, only way this is sorted is if Wayne puts in a transfer request. He's gotta feel good knowing Jose Mourinho has publicly declared he wants him and has bid for him. Don't know what he's waiting for. Before Arsenal comes in with a "cannot refuse" bid and turns Rooney's head, we have to get this done.

Can't see us paying that kind of fee unless Jose thinks he'll be a future superstar. Crazy money that. United and City fans are already super salty about the prospect of him joining us. City are especially clamouring for him.

Chelsea announce an extra friendly to be played against Roma at the end of the summer. Part of the DDR deal? Cocks out guys! Please!

Highlights of his touches ect from today?

Well worth it if we won 3 titles over the span of his 5 year contract. Think he's good enough to help us do that.

I'd probably go De Rossi. We showed last year that we can get goals from all around our squad. We were. Overrun far to often in midfield, so De Rossi for me. I want both please! Dear Santa....

Can't see the 20m figure being quoted being accurate if we won't improve the offer. We can't possibly think they'd sell him for that. Think the 28m story is more believable.

To me, it looks like they were planning a deal with Bale to be completed closer to the end of the window, but our bidding for Rooney has forced their hand and made the signing more urgent.Think about it. What player do you bring in to appease the angry fans after you've sold Rooney to Chelsea? Bale or CR7. Wouldn't surprise me at all.

Don't think he'd be flying across the world for just any transfer. This may be big. Bale possibly? It would be just like these bastards to capitalize on us bidding for Rooney by getting an expensive signing in the same day. Then Rooney would stay and it would be a double blow to us.

Can't see how or why Barca would sell Fabregas after just losing possibly their best youngster. And why would Cesc leave knowing he'll play a bigger role this season?

Even if it is for Fabregas, isn't Cesc's preferred position in the #10 role? He'd be Ronney's replacement.

How's MvG looking?
