Hard to say how good a player like Valencia is as he's playing for Wigan. I'm indifferent to us signing him.

I think hes a good player aswell but why would he want to go to a club where he isnt likely to play that often. Supposedly Man U want to trade Saha for him.

Which is a load of crap. Because Saha would be playing for ... Wigan. I wonder if Ferguson consulted him about this proposed move?

If he has a fantastic game against United at the weekend though he'll be dead set to join i'd imagine.

Saha might be injured all the time but he is far too good for Wigan.

Well i reckon if ManU do sign Valencia it will only be to enable Ronaldo to move to a more central position which would mean they would have Tevez, Rooney and Ronaldo as strikers next year so i dont see them going for a striker like Huntelaar in the summer, especially with Frazer Campbell coming back, he could do a turn if given the right oppertunities. Maybe Valencia could replace Giggs too since hes losing form and doesnt appear to ahve too long left as a key player in the squad.

Swapping Giggs for Valencia would be more realistic.

As good as Saha is, i can't see him going to a big team when he leaves Man U. He is injured so much, i just can't see him doing much in football at all. I think he could end up retiring bin the not so distant future.

Apart from spending a good amount of time injured and sitting on the pitch when he did play , what exactly did he do for Utd. Saha wont be a miss at all.

I believe these are United's real targets for the close season.

Rio Ferdinand has signed a new deal with ManU until 2013...

This is not what ManYoo fans wanted to hear. Cristiano Ronaldo has refused to confirm that he'll be at Old Trafford next season and hinted that he may want to leave after the Champions League final. When asked about his future he said 'Let's see what happens', and casually mentioned the name 'Real Madrid', which is bound to make heads explode in Spain.

What a load of bollco@s as if he is going to leave maybe when he is about 28 or 29 but know way at the end of the season.....

What confuses me is were do real get all this money.....i know there one of the richest clubs in the world but a couple of years ago the were in multi million pound debt...if ronaldo where to sign he would cost a world record transfer fee lets say 50 - 60 million now i know they would generate a commercial boost and popularity of the club but how do they finance such a deal as well as spending maybe 30-40 more on other palyers.....

Oh yes and to add he should join just to see baboon face freak out

I don't think it's any secret that he would like to play for Real Madrid and he may end up there at some point in his career. I listened to the interview he gave last night and he said he was happy at United and wanted to stay, but when asked if he would be there next season, he said "who knows, no-one can predict the future". The top footballers are better advised these days with regard to commercial awareness, and the fact that Ronaldo is in the process of discussing a new contract extension at United just might have something to do with his responses to the interviewer.

However, the majority of neanderthal Man United supporters will not appreciate his response, like most supporters, they want the wearing of their team strip to mean something to players more than the money side of it, loyalty, pride, a love of the club......unfortunately Ronaldo doesn't have those values, he's a mercenary like most foreigners playing their football over here.

Time may be over, says Saha:

Not big loss for United I'd say. But they have to buy a decent enough striker in this transfer window...

maybe he needs to learn something like.. if you do well in epl.. doesn't mean you'll also do well in other leagues.. some players can't just make it..

take henry for example.. i heard he's in the list to be traded.. he just seems not to fit for la liga..

and i also heard pique's leaving.. any confirmation about it?..

I heard Barca want him but don't yet know if he will leave ,hope not , as he's a good prospect for the future. But will he be satisfied to sit behind Vidic and Ferdinand. I doubt it.

erm yeah.. but then vidic's been kind of fragile lately.. i mean his nose.. very prone to be bleeding just for a soft hit.. so there's always a chance to play.. right?..

i'm also sad to hear silvestre's leaving.. i think he's a little bit better than o'shea.. oh man.. each time o'shea plays.. he really doubles the tense..

I bet your heart stopped then when he went in goal that time

i can still handle it so far.. but no guarantee for next season though.. so i'm recommended by anyone to stop watching Man Utd live matches.. and follow the replays as well to reduce the tense..

Barça will sign Piqué.
