He's staying at Arsenal.

That would be quite the shocker.

Agreed.

We bought Berbatov at 28 for £30M, I don't think age concerns us.

Having one of the best strikers in world football?

Wait, what? Your concern was that RvP would be injury prone...Berbatov wasn't injury prone.

While at the same time losing another and being painfully oblivious to how to play the world class footballer in quesiton.

yes and after that we brought in a policy to never pay too much for players over 27...

£20m isn't really too much these days.

Sweet

Not sure what to expect from the team, Ferguson did say he'll play his strongest team, here's hoping.

Lindegaard signs new contract - BBC
I'm happy that he's signed a contract, but why so soon since we signed him in Jan 2011?

Looked on Wiki, he signed a 3 and a half year contract initially.

They also say he's our #13.

So that you don't let it run down to 1 year allowing him to leave cheaply.

Aren't you a Celtic fan?

4 assists vs Roma.

#mufc tour squad: De Gea, Lindegaard; Evra, Ferdinand, Jones, M Keane, Vidic; Anderson, Carrick, Nani, Powell, Lingard, Scholes, Valencia, Young; Berbatov, Hernandez, Kagawa, Macheda, Rooney, Welbeck #mutour

The defence pretty much takes care of itself

Mike Phelan will take charge of the team in Oslo, with Sir Alex on "other club business". SAF to join in Gothenburg.

Great to see Vidic back. Twitter comments have made me cautious over how fit he is.

Hope we sign RvP on Monday, perfect present

"Barcelona newspaper Sport believes United are trying to land Fernando
Llorente from Athletic Club - on a free transfer in 2013. The Spain
centre-forward was outstanding in last season's Europa League ties and
has refused to sign fresh terms in Bilbao. Consequently, he could agree a
pre-contract in January with a Barclays Premier League club and move
for nothing in the summer."

From some united facbook group.

"According to reports in Italy and Spain Manchester United have come to
an agreement with Dortmund striker Robert Lewandowski who is set to join
the red devils for the 2013/2014 season.

Lewandowski has been
linked with a whole host of top European clubs this summer with Chelsea,
Man Utd and Juventus reported to be the front runners, in fact it had
been reported that Juventus had turned their attention to the Polish
international as an alternative to Arsenal’s Robin van Persie
and that Chelsea had in fact made an official approach, now however it
does appear that the 23 year old is destined for Old Trafford.


Lewandowski contract with the German champions runs out in the summer of
2014 and so it makes sense for them to hang on to one of their best
players for another season and secure a deal whereby they maximise his
value at a point when he has just one year left on his contract, by
agreeing a deal with Man Utd now they achieve that specific aim.

The Polish hit man has played an integral part in Dortmunds rise to the
pinnacle of German football and has become much sought after, it now
appears that it is Man Utd that have finally won the battle to sign one
of Europe’s finest young attackers. your thoughts ?"

Same FB Group.

and his season we will have RVP right.. 4-1-5 formation here we come
