Quite a few papers reporting the Downing story. Definite upgrade on Guti, but no thanks. Although not a winger, he should never be ahead of Marv.

Sounds like #lfc are offering Downing around clubs, player on huge wages #nufc

Chronicle sources saying #nufc aren't in for Stewart Downing
Hopefully true.

And Brian Ruiz. None of them will move more than about 10 yards per match!

Ruiz is actually one of Fulham's better players at tracking back, covers more than most. Boateng is a tank though and will make up for the languid attack of Taarabt/Berbatov.

Jol has said he can update with Fulham's potential move for Bent by the end of the week, if not there is another player - no confirmation on who though.
 
Under police investigation, I would have thought suspension until the investigation was concluded.

Ched Evans was allowed to carry on playing right until the day of his court appearance. If it had been 1 week later, we would have been promoted. :p
 
I still don't understand why Suarez would have wanted to move to Arsenal, I mean, totally get a Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern, hell I'd have even understood somewhere like Paris but Arsenal :(.

Because quite simply we are the only ones interested in him;)...no other team is going to touch him with a bargepole with the way he is on the field ie his antics and attitude etc.

I imagine if Real dont get Bale then they might put in a cheeky bid for Suarez and watch how Liverpool then roll over and say yeh hes for sale:p.

Think Arsenal are wasting there time on him, much like United with Fabregas. Dont see Liverpool selling to there main rival for 4th spot unless the price is right, Dont see Arsenal payng £50 million + for him, better to look at alternatives than waste the whole summer chasing somebody they probably wont get.

united turned down £30m for rooney? fools. why not use this and the £30m already bid for fabregas to make getting fabregas are far more realistic proposition?

Wantaway striker Wayne Rooney has not travelled with the Manchester United squad for a pre-season friendly in Sweden.

The England star, who was the subject of a second rejected bid from Chelsea this weekend, was expected to face AIK in Stockholm on Tuesday but has been left behind due to a shoulder injury, according to United boss David Moyes.

"Wayne hurt his shoulder in a fall during a match on Saturday," Moyes told the club's official website. "It's not too serious and I don't expect it to keep him out for too long.

"I'm disappointed he's missing the game because we were keen to get him back involved and ready to play."

"It's not too serious and I don't expect it to keep him out for too long."
David Moyes
Rooney's absence, just hours after United confirmed they had turned down an offer - thought to be in the region of £30m - for his services, will feed already fevered speculation about his future at Old Trafford.

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, who admitted last month that Rooney was his sole summer target, had seen one bid of around £20m rebuffed before an improved figure was knocked back on Sunday.

Rooney, with two years left on his current deal, is reportedly ready to try and force through a move by handing in a written transfer request but United reiterated their hardline stance on Monday morning.

"A bid was received yesterday (Sunday) and immediately rejected," a United spokesman said. "Our position remains that he is not for sale."

Nemanja Vidic will skipper the United side in Sweden after missing the first leg of the tour due to a sciatica problem, while Portuguese winger Bebe, signed for £7.4m in 2010 but yet to start a game in the Premier League, is also in the squad.
 
I don't mind him going but going to Chelsea is really not good. Mourinho will use him properly and get the most out of him, and that is a very dangerous prospect indeed

Thats a cracking idea. Sell one of our best players to a main rival and then hope that Barca have just been lying about not selling Fabregas. We would perhaps consider selling Rooney if we actually got Fabregas but certainly not before he was already in a United shirt.
 
So dp you think6we will move on and try to sign another midfielder or because w3 can't get fabregas we'll just sign some more defenders or something instead.

Fellaini is always last on the list, and suspect moyes will make a move for him closer towards end of transfer deadline, once he's realised he can't bring any top player to the club.

This + fact I don't believe Chelsea have actually (yet) offered more than £25m.

Personally I don't think Utd should let him go for less than £35m upfront (to Chelsea), and IF - which looks unlikely - an offer from abroad came in £25 - 30m is more realistic.
