Manchester United chief executive David Gill has not ruled out the possibility of further new signings before the close of the transfer window. Following the departures of Cristiano Ronaldo and Carlos Tevez over the summer, United had been tipped to spend big in the transfer market. To date, the Premier League champions have brought in Antonio Valencia, Michael Owen and Gabriel Obertan for an outlay of less than £20million. United boss Sir Alex Ferguson stated earlier this week that he was not planning to make any more major signings after being linked with the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Sergio Aguero. However, ahead of the club's pre-season trip to Asia, Gill admits there could still be some transfer activity in the coming weeks. Gill said: "I will start each day with the usual emails and correspondence, and I'm sure there will be some player activity going on while we are over there." |

I wouldn't read too much into that. Could mean players leaving (although I struggle to see who) or them turning down bids. Wouldn't expect anybody of any significance to be bought. |

I would. Carrick, Fletcher, Hargreaves, Anderson, Giggs, Scholes, Gibson + Ljajic in January...there's just not going to be any movement there until Giggs and Scholes leave at the earliest. |

That's all well and good but those are still players on the books that Fergie has to manage... Gibson wouldn't have been given a new contract if they didn't want to keep him. |

You should do stand-up. Nah just kidding. I hope he raises his game. United are going to be relying a lot on players like that to raise their game. A goal wouldn't go amiss either. :rolleyes: |
