Both The Guardian and Daily Mail reporting today that we are 'monitoring' him. Haven't seen much of the guy to be fair, what is his role for Leverkusen? On the minus side, he would cost upward of £20m - apparently Munich had that much knocked back in the summer for him. On the plus side, if this is a January deal he would be available for the Champions League....and we need to shore the midfield up pronto. www.guardian.co.uk/football/2012/oct/31/football-transfer-rumours-manchester-united

Gundogan is the one we should get.
Bender and Buttner on the same team though.....

Why groan? He's a good player. He probably means it in the context of 'another transfer story' - which is fair enough, but this makes sense on many levels. Young, German international, midfielder, not cup tied in Europe. Yes indeed Jim, but there's something about German internationals never leaving Germany..granted a few exceptions like Ballack (who was past his best anyway). Still, like I say, this would make sense.

Rate isco a lot more 2bh.

Bild.de reported this as well which is one of the most reliable sites / newspapers in Germany, stated that both us and Arsenal are interested with a view to possibly making a bid in January. Would be ideal but I won't get my hopes up quite yet..

Arsenal actually buy Germans so that's legit.

Rate isco a lot more 2bh. No harm at all mate, I was putting off posting a link myself until I weighed up the pro's to a potential deal. I could be wrong (let me know if I am), but isn't Bender more of a central holding player as opposed to a wide man like Isco?

We, as in everyone but SAF I'd love nothing more than a bit of German in our midfield!

again not seen him but iv just read he's a center mid with a physical presence. liking the sound of it
might be an advantage that he's at leverkusen and all. rather than trying to buy a player from bayern. if he's the one for us lets hope he doesn't choose bayern
