Bastian Schweinsteiger

It was Bild that reported it first right? They were first on with Lewa, Pep and Gotze stories back then, so this is most likely done deal too.

If he signs for Man Utd and manages to stay fit for a large part of the season then he will improve their team immeasurably.

He's still one of (if not THE) best central midfielders in the world and I will be very worried to see him sign for Utd.

The only saving grace is his fitness issues, we'd have to be hoping that he's out for large parts of the season so he can't have much of an influence on the campaign. But sometimes players get lucky and get no injuries at all and help their team to the title (RVP the year he signed for MU).

Just a temp signing for him, if he had fitness issues and when he faces tough tempo of PL clubs, he'll last them a season or two.

Still he improves their squad a lot.

Great transfer for them if true. Sad they are bringing a quality midfielder, I enjoyed watching Anderson, Carrick, Fletcher, Herrera, Cleverly and Blind so far ;D

Bastian is quality, but I wonder how is his fitness and is he past it? Hopefully yes if he's signing with them.

I'd really like us to sign him though.

Those mids have lots of trophies in their cabinet bro....never judge a book by its cover except cleverly though...lol

Confirmed by the Bayern president now. Again, if they keep him fit and also sign Schneiderlin they'll have a fantastic midfield.

When they sign a new striker and top CB they'll have one hell of a squad. On paper anyways.

[Thendo 1,088]

Big money for a 30 + player though, and he will not solve their midfield problem in the long run. But utd will have a really strong squad for next season especially if they can get another top striker.

[Kieran. 6,317]

He's going to be a TOP signing for them. A nice change of scenery with a new project has me worried..

Liverpool.....Liverpool......fucking LOL!

Arsenal signed a goal keeper.

Man Utd have only signed Depay. Whats the issue here again?

[superfrank8 23]

Looks like he's joining United then.. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/33492562

[Pizy 18,415]

Schweinsteiger, Depay, and Darmian all sewn up. At least 2 more signings for sure.

Meanwhile, at Cobham/Stamford Bridge... *crickets*

[Oscar 441]

United needed a replacement for carrick, a cb, a de gea replacement and a winger.

GOT NONE OF THEM.

[chrismada9 1,948]

Well Schweinsteiger has signed for United.. if Ramos follows him to Old Trafford, that sends a big message out to the rest of the clubs.

We gotta make some signings now.. I promised myself I wouldn't get impatient with new signings.. now I feel like I need to break that promise! Getting very restless!

[didierforever 7,349]
