"Can he get it over Walker... YES HE CAN!!!"

He'll either turn out to be a good goal scorer or another Manucho. Time will tell, Fergie has said he's seen him in training and he's excited.

I think Obertan can become marvellous, I already much prefer him to Nani, better attitude, more skill, more direct. Just needs to iron out the decision making, passing when he should shoot. Shoot when he should pass etc.

I always think of Nani as a good bit player and a player to bring on now and again but certainly not good enough to be a replacement for Giggs down the left. Man.Utd have another rising player in Tokic down the left as well (I think his name is so) He may have gone out on loan, or be in the squad but I`ve yet to see him play.

Nani has come out in the press and talked about Fergie in a bad way, his future is looking very bleak. He was winging because of the lack of first team opportunities even though it's quite clear he isn't good enough. He never wanted to be a player to bring on from the bench. Tosic is 21 and hasn't started a game for the club, I don't believe he'll have a future.

I believe the cheque book should come out.

New winger and new striker please.

Berbatov is out with a knee injury for 3 months FFS. If they don't bring out the cheque book then maybe the debt is worse than we thought..

I heard they were letting Tosic go, which means Nani might stay...for now.

Berbatov being out means Owen might get a regular run, but I'm hoping United go for the Ajax striker Louis Suarez.
I think we need an established central midfielder and centre half. Cheque book out Fergie!

United could do with Saurez, he is a top class player. One of my favourite players to watch, although I doubt United will buy any players seeing as they are "In-debt" so bad. If they do buy a played it obviously shows that it is not as bad as it seems.

This transfer window should be interesting.

Letting Tosic go and not even bothering with Ljajic. I had high hopes for Ljajic, I had hopes that Tosic would at least play more first team football than he did. At first I was wondering why he wasn't given more chances but then I realised, in Fergie we trust. If Ferguson didn't see a reason to play him, that's good enough for me. He obviously wasn't ready.

Nani to stay? Maybe. But I'd be happy with Di Maria and Obertan on the left wing. Dzeko up front please. £15 mil from Wolfsburg. But saying that, I haven't seen Saurez except for one appearance in the champions league. All be it, an impressive appearance.

Centre back? No thank you. No point in panic buying, Vidic and Evans with Brown as cover will do me, until Ferdinand gets fit again. If he isn't the same player after injuries, then get out the cheque book. (Summer.)

I don't think Ferdinand will make the World Cup even after his recovery because I doubt he'll make a full recovery in time.
We need a centre back, but no need to panic buy. Just buy a centre half with a lot of experience (late 20's) for the short term.
Fergie has a habit of doing this with players in the past (Larrson, Blanc, Sheringham etc) until the right player is available.

Saurez would be a dream come true for United. I've been watching him on ESPN and he's incredible.

Me neither, he seems to have lost a yard of pace. I've loved Ferdinand and rated him better than Terry for so long, I saw his home debut sitting in the stretty and he wore bright yellow boots and I just remember thinking, this guy's gonna the business, it's a shame to see him struggling so badly.

I wouldn't have minded Sol Campbell on a free tbh. No money spent for an experienced centre half, leaves funds to strenghten our attack.

How much are we looking for Saurez? *Gulps.*

What a ****ing useless performance that was... If I was a drinking man it would be drowning the sorrows time...

The only positive is that Dunne seems to be looking more accustomed to attacking the football....
