Thought this could be a laugh.
I check the BBC page every morning for a brief round-up of all the transfer tattle. I will post all United related tidbits.
Wednesday 30/5/12:
Manchester United are reportedly close to agreeing a £12m deal for Borussia Dortmund's 23-year-old midfielder Shinji Kagawa.
Full story: Metro
Manchester United have made initial enquiries about the availability of Manchester City's 24-year-old winger Adam Johnson.
Full story: Caught offside
Manchester United and Manchester City both have their eye on Papiss Cisse, who scored 13 times in 14 games after joining Newcastle in January.

If City would sell to us, which they wouldn't, I'd love Adam Johnson. Top player and he's being wasted by them. Competition for Valencia and all round good times.

Hmm, why do I think he's a right winger though, haven't they used him there?

I like all of those rumours. Would love Cisse, really impressed by him last season. Think Johnson would be a terrific signing, hopefully worth all "City reject" chants we'd have to suffer. I feel like he could play either wing, cutting inside or whipping the ball in. Definitely being wasted at Citeh.

True, but if he's to be used on the left we'd probably pass as we're overstocked as it is on the left, no?
Thought so, couldn't picture him playing for City on the left. How much would he fetch though, around 17-18?

So why do we play young on the left  considering he doesnt seem to have a left foot lol. |

It's strange really, just browsing on the odd MCFC site in the past and nearly every person put Johnson down as a player to be sold this summer. He didn't help himself by signing a new contract and it's a shame because he could be a brilliant option for England, says it all when Downing gets infront of him especially after the dire season he had. He must realise he's never going to be a regular so he might push for a transfer, I'd definitely take a punt on him as with regular game time he could do a great job, doubt they'd sell to us though. |

How much would he fetch though, around 17-18? Move Nani permanently to the right to compete with Valencia. By which I mean sit on the bench all the time unless Tony V is either injured or suspended, because Nani is as consistent as sand. |
