    Is that a step up? I doubt he leaves Palace for them. It will be Spurs, Arsenal or Chelsea (if they can beat the transfer ban).

    Potentially Liverpool if they were to lose someone.

    I would rather see one of the top 6 buy Zaha over the likes of Coutinho.

    Allegri has left Juve.

    edit: Turns out my Italian is very bad. They've announced a press conference tomorrow that will more than likely announce the departure of Allegri.

    Clubs really are starting to do their business earlier and earlier. Quite refreshing.

    50M for one good season in Germany, though. I dunno. He's an FM ledge, I suppose.

    Frankfurt only activated the option to convert his two year loan into a permanent deal last month.

    I can see Ziyech going somewhere like Spurs. He apparently has a £25m release clause which should be pittance to those in the top 4.

    There's some pretty proven ITKs on the Utd subreddit at the moment and apparently De Gea has told the club he won't sign a new deal and will be sold.

    A brief Twitter search suggests that either the ITKs are all over the place or United are. They sound like they're after everybody and nobody.

    ITKiko is all you need.

    Odd to see United doing more sensible things so far in regards the 2 young wingers.

    These people have posted exact times press conferences are going to happen to announce players and stuff before.

    And no it isn't, not from anyone remotely reliable. I'm sure the daily mail will have said it every year yeah.

    Of course De Gea wants to leave. Is PSG the only superclub that would be down for a goalkeeper?

    City is a no for obvious reasons. Barcelona have a good keeper as do Atletico.

    Real Madrid would be an obvious one, but would he go there? Juventus can stroll their league with Szceszny in goal so they have no need. Bayern have Neuer again so that's a no.
    There's only really PSG left that could afford both fee and wages.

    Madrid are going gung-ho on Courtois whether it works out or not. PSG is the only place I can think of, unless he wants to go to Napoli

    Juventus would probably come in if the price was right. It's probably only Madrid or PSG who would pay a decent transfer fee for him.

    Who are the young wingers United are after, James and?

    I quite like that '6 PLAYERS UNITED MUST SIGN!' article doing the rounds. Koulibaly, James, Wan-Bissaka, Rice, Dybala, Bruno Fernandes. Just the odd £300m and probably no nearer to City.

    James and Dybala are exactly the type of players Man Utd should be nowhere near. They have elapsed and potential expired

    Not "Harmez", Daniel James from Swansea.

    We are apparently looking to buy a RW, RB, CB and CM. Top target for each position is Sancho, AWB and Koulibaly. CM more vague and depends what Pogba decides to do.

    Meunier is second choice right back and we have backups for the other positions too.

    Sancho looked nailed on to come during our good run under Ole but now looks like he might stay another season at Dortmund after we missed out on CL.

    Believe it or don't I guess, but these guys called stuff like the Dalot transfer before it was anywhere in the press and the Kohler sponsorship deal before anyone had heard of Kohler so I'm fairly convinced they actually know stuff.

    If not qualifying for the Champions League saves United from spaffing £100m on Jadon Sancho they've probably broken even in terms of the money they are going to miss out on.

    Every cloud and all that.

    I know it's hard to attract top talent without CL but are they really the level of players United are looking at? Going to be a long season for OGS even if hes lucky and gets the lot.

    Tough for other clubs when City and Liverpool are so far ahead. City could go and spunk 100m on a holding midfielder and be set for another 3 seasons, the squad is ridiculous right now.

    Sancho had an amazing return for Dortmund this year and I hear nothing but very good things about Koulibaly. They seem like exactly the level of player we should be after

    It's not like spunking money on players like Sanchez has worked.

    EDIT: Cillesen or Onana to replace Dave apparently.

    For a long time they've needed to buy to develop, Woodward clearly hates doing this though.

    Buying the big contract stars at 28+ is a disaster maybe over 50% of the time? You have to have people who are hungry, Ferguson himself achieved success that way.

    Speaking of which, they are meant to have a couple of solid young goalkeepers, so I would rather just chuck one of them in to sink or swim than buy some foreign flapping pleb.

    Sancho's what? 18 with one good season in Germany under his belt? I just don't think he's going to make a massive difference to United in the next season or so, he needs to develop, and fair enough if you want to do that, but for the sort of money he will cost expectation will be too high for that sort of season to be tolerated (see Dembele at Barcelona and they've been pissing the league).

    I don't have the sort of knowledge to know who would be better, but there must be c.22 year olds knocking around who you could get at half the price in the sort of Mané bracket who would serve you better - just buy the Ajax frontline, for example. I suppose, when you're trying to plunder the teams of the moment for their young stars (say Ajax and Lyon) there is probably going to be competition from clubs who can offer better footballing prospects.

    That Koulibaly guy always looks good whenever I see him, but, again, the money is insane. I know that is bound to be the case to some extent, but De Laurentis is a nutter and players coming from Italy have a fairly mixed record in English football.

    United's real problem is is anyone going to believe in Solskjaer enough to want to sign for them? I'm not sure.

    Three great young Asian's for ya.

    Supahanat Mueanta

    Just 16, and likely to stay in Thailand for a while yet. However, could easily be the Supat Rungratsamee. 3 in 14 for Thai giants Buriram, and named in the latest senior Thai national team, having previously scored 19 in 16 for the U16's, 4 in 6 for the U19's and 1 in 1 for the U21's.

    Song Bum-keun
    21yr old 'keeper who only broke into the Jeonbuk team this year, and quickly established himself as the number 1.
    Probably gonna stay at Jeonbuk for a few season, but could also see himself in the 2.Bundesliga


    Oday Dabbagh
    20year old Palestinian midfielder, currently plying his trade at Hilal Al-Quds. Destined to move to UAE or Saudi Arabia

    Woodward clearly loves a galactico signing, but everything that's come out is that he's always been willing to blow big money on talented youngsters, which was where him and Mourinho clashed as Jose wanted to be bunging £50m+s at Perisic and Willian.

    It sounds like there's an acceptance this is exactly what we need to do to get back to challenging.

    I'd love Onana.

    He's a proper African keeper so there'd be plenty of entertainment.

    Bournemouth have signed Lloyd Kelly from Bristol City for £13m. Supposed to be quite highly rated. Probably a better bet than that fat muppet Diego Rico.

    I thought about him finishing their but not to manage as well. He's done well and signed off in style for City.

    Sancho has decided to stay at Dortmund for another year. We might run De Gea's contract down rather than selling.

    That's a pretty intelligent idea from Kompany. He's easily good enough to still be playing at the top, but dropping down a level to get your foot onto the management ladder is smart.

    It's probably better to wait for him, even if it ends up costing a bit more. Dave Gayer can do one though the mimsy.
