    Cheers. I was following the press conference on twitter, so didn't get the full quote. I still think that Messi, Neymar and probably Pique and Inesta are the only ones that are definitely safe though.

    Pique signed a new contract yesterday.

    I know a girl from Glasgow who mysteriously 'went to school with' and 'is great friends with' every vaguely notable Scottish person within about 6 years of her age. Still waiting on some free tickets to... anything at all though.

    Vanessa Lorenzo or Malena Costa?

    Any more on the rumour that he's thinking of appointing van Persie as captain? Would be a bit of a slight to Rooney if true.

    don't know it was around 2009 or that just remember at the time when he told me I was telling him that he should put something dodgy in his food when they were going out try have him out sick for the champions league final against Utd :D

    Very slow on confirmed transfer news of late, unless the deal for Shaw is done and dusted already and the club are waiting on a Ta-Da moment I can't see why there is a delay unless last summer procrastinations were not a one off. Saints (like Everton last year) reveal a bid of £27M and then nothing from anyone for weeks. Sound familiar? Hate to say it but the supposed ‘work done behind the scenes’ line is wearing thin with me.

    Saying that the optimistic part of me hopes it’s a case of Woodword was in the middle of negotiations for players on a list that Moyes provided and De Gaal has vetoed a few with his own fresh list or there may be a few deals already done and the finer details are being worked on. I really would love a day like when Nani & Anderson were signed at the same time and a few names are revealed all at once, knowing full well the internet will break.

    A slight on Rooney in what way?

    It'd be a slight on van Gaal if he appointed him captain despite preferring van Persie for the role.

    Just on the kit launches. If United went with Adidas for the next one, who would do launch? I think the majority of our players are Nike sponsored?

    40million on fabregas
    40million on Kroos
    20million on a CB
    27million on shaw.

    That would do nicely.

    Maybe I should rephrase, I meant that Rooney might interpret it as a bit of a slight.

    When he got his new deal a few months back he looked like he was the most likely choice to be the next captain. Had Moyes stayed he almost certainly would have been.
    He's also been at the club a lot longer than Robin and has a bit of a history of being unhappy at not getting his way.

    Somebody needs to throw some gas into the fire for FutureGuy

    We are going to sign Kroos
    And Fabregas
    And Shaw
    And Hummels
    And Konoplyanka
