The Official Manchester United Thread

[Guest Portuguese]

Manchester United have agreed to sign Atletico Madrid goalkeeper David de Gea for 20m euros (£17.8m) on a five-year contract, according to Spanish radio station Onda Cero.

[Guest Portuguese]

Media hype are claiming United are moving for this kid once again.

This youts been gassed up for years, if he actual turns into a superstar it will be a madness well done to him for not letting the obvious distractions get to his head

I swear Portuguese will come in like nah fam i knew about him before the youtube vid, i was watching streams of santos under 7s back in 2004

He was never at Santos when he was seven so your theory goes out of the window

I knew about him when most football fans knew about him when he was 10 so that must of been in 2004 through youtube

he was know as Jean Carlos Chera but he changed his name to Anderson but I don't know what he goes by.

he isn't a forward no more he is an attacking midfielder in the Ganso mould(left footed)

Seriously don't why M12 is surprised there is a few people on this forum who really know their football aka Walking Football Encyclopedia

Sir Alex on De Gea

On Italian television I am supposed to be signing two players from Italy tonight, so I can place that story along with those," he said.

"There is always speculation about who we are going to sign. So many people throw names at me. I can't answer it."

He's retiring to spend time with his family,

and in light of events last season, i'd see it as rude to even ask him to carry on,

apparently he's even ruled out taking on a coaching role at the club

I keep hearing he wants to stay for another year?

[Yoshie]

Heard a reporter ask him a few weeks back if we can persuade him, he said no awkwardly which makes me think we won't even ask. It'd be rude.

[Kompressor]

He seems quite adament about it tbh,

reckon he came close to packing it in after his wife got sick,

[Gambino]

Shame he is retiring really cuz he's still at the top of his game. Can't expect him to be around forever though so a good time for both parties really.

UTD Reserves - Everton Reserves

1-0 up after a penalty

[The King]

Id feel horrible if it came out we asked him to carry on.

[Chicharito]

Edwin owes Manchester United or Football nothing at all.

Let the man live his life.

Him and Messi are equals IMO. Pisses me off when people say if he wasn't strong/fast he wouldn't be anything.

JOSE MOURINHO believes he will succeed Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford.

The Special One wants to take over as Manchester United boss at the end of next season - and reckons he will get the job.

SunSport revealed last month that Real Madrid manager Mourinho, 48, is set on 'coming home' to the Premier League.

He has told close pals he believes the way will be open for him in the summer of 2012.

The problem would come if Fergie decides to go out on a high this year with a second Treble triumph.

Mourinho has three years left on his Real deal but could walk away, such is his desire to return to work in the Prem.

Fergie, 69, said recently: "Jose is a great friend of mine. We've spoken many times about his future and I understand his wish to return to England.

"But it's difficult for me to say when my position will be available. It will be my health that decides."

United chiefs are keen on Mourinho, who won the Champions League with both Porto and Inter Milan and guided Chelsea to two Premier League titles.

The Portuguese coach has led Real into their first Champions League semi-final since 2003, where they will meet bitter rivals Barcelona.

United had earmarked Everton boss David Moyes.

But Mourinho's CV and standing in the game are proving too hard to ignore.

Mourinho was asked yesterday if he might replace Roberto Mancini at Manchester City. He replied: "I say it is impossible."

Mancini said: "Yes, and I think it would be impossible for me to go to Madrid."
