ManU sign Nani and Anderson?????

This is shocking if true... I was hoping Inter get Anderson...

It could easily be wrong news, goal.com never inspired confidence!

Can anyone confirm this?? It says that Hargreaves is also almost confirmed!!!

If all this is true, then hats off to SAF & ManU - all brilliant moves, just what they needed! These would make ManU very very impressive!

Check out the Premiership Thread.

Yes they are done deals.

Impressive, in one quick move they have completed the succession planning for Giggs and Scholes!!

I am sure Nani and Anderson will start the next season as their understudies!

Very impressive.

What about Hargreaves?

He's coming as well.

Very happy for you, Parky.... now ManU look as impressive as anyone as a quality squad with real depth.

ManU are starting to scare me now... Really feel like travelling for our friendly!

Cheers.

Still feel we need another striker but we will have to sell some squad players as well like Smith and Richardson etc.

Feel bad for young Rossi... he seemed to be so eager to return to ManU after proving himself at the top level. But with Anderson, Nani and another striker, Rossi might not get too many games...

Yeah, thats a factor.

Talk we may send Nani back on loan for a season, that would give Rossi a season to prove himself as well.

If not, he's chances will be severly limited.

In the end I'm happy we got the fee we did. Nani being the way he is, I was afraid we might end up letting him go for under 20M Euros. The board did have him under contract though, with the option to extend, so I guess they were in the driving seat really.

In the end though, no point keeping a player that's just gonna be dragging his feet all season when there are other great talents waiting to get their chance. If only Nani had Moutinho or Veloso's spirit...

That said, Nani did stick to his word and made it clear he was about to sign a new deal with a 30M buy-out clause...this pushed his current fee past the 20M mark as the deal was made with this value in mind.

I can't say he screwed us.

Perhaps the best part of all this is how Portugal continues off the football map for the great majority despite all it's produced and accomplished...

Can't even get our own tab on Sky Sports...geez.

They can take Nani but leave anderson for us just in case 2 saint doesn't work out.

The day someone in Portugal discovers the concept of not moving strikers to the wings will be the day they do serious damage on the international stage.

Kudos, though I was hoping for a bigger stirker like Cruz for instance, how much do you think he would go for?

Cruz has many times stated that he is happy being even the 4th choice striker at Inter.... and we are happy with him too, he is the best 4th choice striker in the world.

Cruz is not for sale, leave our argies alone!

You've got Crespo, Ibra and Adriano for god sakes! Give a little love this time...

What strikers are Portugal playing on the wings?

trust me the argentine mafia would not let any of their own go. once mafioso always mafioso:D

Ok, take Adriano.

£20M

5 million is the most i'd give for Adriano and 12 m for Cruz.

seriously?

Why do you ask?

robert wrote:Why do you ask?

Because secretly he owns Adriano

C'on give a little love this time.... how about 5 million plus rooney?

Rooney would be like a lost little pig in Italy... I'd give you Smith + 5 m for Cruz.

I rather take the lost little pig than the ugly useless pig
