    Cleverly+Fellani for McCarthy?

    No thanks.

    Cleverly+Fellani for McCarthy?

    Fellaini would do a job for Everton. It's a team without a second striker and Kone missed the majority of the last season injured.

    Everton fans might scoff at the idea of buying him back, but playing him further forward like Belgium do, and like Moyes did at Everton, could do them wonders.

    10 million is a bit ambitious, we should enquire if Arsenal still have the £1 laying around from the Suarez bid.

    Ye if you think McCarthy is worth about 30 million but in reality no.

    And they've no Lukaku to bang the goals in this year or Deloufeu to provide assists
    baines ain't getting any younger either..

    as for someone suggesting mCCarthy for Cleverly...no thanks

    But he's a better player than both and surely that is what matters? Why do fans get so uptight over the cost of a player? It's not your money. Surely you just want the best players available? Let the club worry about "value".

    Herrera costing 5 million or 50 million doesn't change how good he is, or how much United needed a midfielder. You aren't a financial advisor, you are a fan.

    If only Sharp was still the sponsor

    Because for the same amount of money you could get a much better player.

    M'villa looks like hes going to Inter for 6.4 million is a good example.

    Rumblings on twitter of Nike walking away from the deal with Utd.

    Too expensive / aggressive dealings

    I wouldn't have a problem with trading Young and Cleverley for McCarthy. The way I see it: neither of those two are going to get into the first eleven, where as McCarthy could. And we get two heavy earners off the books.
    But we should only pursue McCarthy if our main targets fail. Personally I don't think he's even on the radar. Vidal, Strootman, DeJong, Carvalho, Turan are the types of player the club should be focused on - and I'm quite convinced they are.

    Reports saying Adidas have won the kit deal fee £58m a season. That's almost twice Madrids deal.
