Anyone else think he don't know sh*t about the transfer market?

Manchester United set to sell Louis Saha to SunderlandManchester United are reported to have received a £10 million bid for striker Louis Saha from Sunderland. By Emily Benammar and agenciesLast Updated: 10:52AM BST 28 Jul 2008Louis Saha - Manchester United set to sell Louis SahaOn his way: Louis Saha is set for a move out of Manchester United after four years Photo: Getty ImagesThe club manager Roy Keane, who yesterday completed the signing of Pascal Chimbonda, needs to improve his strike force ahead of the new season as Kenwyne Jones could miss most of it with a knee injury. And Saha, who has failed to become a regular feature under Alex Ferguson could fill the role well.The French striker, 29, has said he will give Keane an answer in the coming days, and will no doubt have been impressed with the ambition Sunderland are showing ahead of their opening game on 16 August against Liverpool. The out-of-favour United player will also be tempted by the opportunity for regular first-team starts.Should the deal go through Saha would be paired alongside El-Hadji Diouf once his £2.5 million deal is complete.Despite Ferguson putting a £12 million price tag on the Frenchman Keane's offer may well be accepted as a speedy deal would provide the Manchester United with the disposable funds to secure a fit goalscorer. But Keane will face competition in the race to land Saha. Reports suggest that French side Paris St Germain also have their eye on him.Saha arrived at Old Trafford in 2004 for a fee of £12 million. Despite being clouded with injury for the majority of his time at the club he has made 124 appearances and scored 42 goals.Keane yesterday celebrated his latest arrival Chimbonda and said: "Pascal is one of those rare players who can play anywhere across the back line and that will be invaluable."And he also has a lot of Premier League experience which can only be a plus for us."

Overpriced but Keane is smacking it this year.Made some shockers last year but their team, bar a LB is sick now (when Jones gets fit) + if they get the other two of the 'spurs 4'.Gordon,Chimbonda, Kaboul, Nosworthy, new LB,Malbranque, Tainio, Whitehead, Richardson,Jones, Saha.

Saha is one of the worst strikers to ever grace that shirt of ours.His injury record is hideous, no point buying someone that will only play 20 or so games a season, some joke ting.You can see Keane's logic in getting him in especially at this stage of his career.But as long as he's off our books i could care less.Hopefully Silvestre goes with him.
