Give your best guess who we will sign this summer (not who you most want to sign) I think we will land Berbatov. And i want us to too! |

Huntlaar, had a feeling he'd become a United player for a while now |

I think Huntelaar is the main favourite. Only because he's available, he's made various statements to suggest he wants a big prem club "like united" to come for him, and because we need a young quality striker who will be willing to rotate. I still think we need a 2nd left back and a right back and we should do everything to keep Pique. But this bit is just a personal preference. |

I've really got no idea tbh but lets hope it's a nice surprise like last Summer. My best guess is Vucinic |

I think you'll get a surprise again and it will probably come early aswell like last year. even though micah richards plays for city ive got a funny feeling that hell end up at united. |

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has targeted Daniel Alves, Luis Fabiano and Micah Richards in a £50million spending spree. Do you think United need this trio? |

Yeah, I've seen that but personally I can not see Richards and Alves coming, just one maybe. Presuming they are being talked about as RB. Having Alves on the right would mimic Evra on the left, some might be concerned but the team would play the Utd way. I think I'd prefer Richards but wouldn't be upset with either, unlike Wes Brown. We need cover for LB not 2 new RBs. Fabiano? I don't know, he's already 27/28 and therefore older than Utd usually go for. I think Benzema is the guy SAF really wants, how about buying Fabiano and offering him to Lyon for Benzema? I think it's all paper talk, but I get addicted to the speculation at this time of year. |

Real Madrid are prepared to pay an estimated £150m to secure the services of Cristiano Ronaldo. They will pay Man Utd £39.8m as well as offering Robinho, Sergio Ramos and Mahamadou Diarra in exchange and will pay the Portuguese winger £7.6m a year. (Daily Express) check that one sense. think Richards would be a CB brought in coz lets face it he will be Englands top defender in a few years, think SAF will think get him now will he can. Alves no way he will go to Barca. Fabiano when I saw him live was not impressive, would prefer Berbatov or really Benzema- that wont happen thou |

Don't believe it. And as I said in the rumour mill, you can't replace the world's best player. The team is weakened even if the world's second best player replaces him. I don't think we need Diarra, we have DMers a plenty. Ramos? maybe but we're being linked with loads of RBs and individually he hasn't been high on the list. Robinho also isn't quite the target man striker we're looking for, I don't think. Losing Ronaldo? Please not yet! |

I think you are all in for a disappointing Summer if you are waiting for them to buy Richards or a right back. ![]()
That's pretty much unheard of and surely Lyon would be able to buy Fabiano for a lower price than United could? |

YOUR ALWAYS WRONG Flak
:P Think we will sign a Striker and a cm player and maybe a CB-if pique goes. think SAF is prob concerned that we aint getting enough goals from midfield-ok Ronaldo scored 42 but he def wont score so many next year. we need a CM who will get 10 at least, maybe Anderson can but does his best work in other areas.(his shootng aint great) plus a 20 goal striker |

We will see. <_< Left midfield or striker. I think that's all United will sign providing the players all stop. |

both LM and a striker- some players will leave, 2 at the most thou, and his already said Giggs, Scholes and Neville will be fazed out next season.... On the Richards signing- I think this could be true, think back to Rooney, nobody expected him to sign. I no City are local rival ect. tbh I think this is lost on most players(untill matchday) He is the sought of player SAF wont mind spendin 25mil on |

I will eat my hat if it happens.
:P He said Giggs and Scholes will still play 25-30 games next season. Can't see them buying a central midfielder as they still have 4 even without Scholes. |
