  Mesut Ozil, Will.i.an, any midfielder with Champions League experience basically, Man Utd want you! Are you interested in this exciting opportunity? A recent managerial restructuring makes this the perfect time to join this vibrant and dynamic organisation. CVs to dmoyes@manutd.com please, and include ‘URGENT’ in the title. Many thanks.
  
  If they haven’t signed him by August 26th, Chelsea will sack off their attempts to bring Wayne Rooney to Stamford Bridge and sign Samuel Eto’o instead. That still gives us 10 more days to hear about it though, fear not.
  
  Tottenham could make Pablo Osvaldo their latest summer signing. Southampton are keen too, for what it’s worth. Spurs are another side in for Will.i.an, as are Liverpool. Bidding war!
  
  Michael Laudrup has told Arsenal not to waste their time trying to sign Michu. Who’s he to tell them they can’t waste their time not signing people? It’s what they do. That £6m bid for Ashley Williams will need doubling too. And Luiz Gustavo went to Wolfsburg. Excellent.
  
  Darren Bent’s completed his season-long loan move to Fulham, and Esteban Granero has fucked off the Championship and returned to Spain. Real Sociedad will have him for a season too.

  UPDATE
  Liverpool have agreed a deal with Valencia to take Aly Cissokho on loan for a season, and the move could become permanent next summer. Cisskho is a 25-year-old left back with one France cap.
  
  Spurs and QPR have agreed a fee for Scott Parker and it's now up to the midfielder to decide whether or not to move to West London and link up with Harry Redknapp once more.

  the whole rooney thing is getting boring, it's obvious they will sell him, butonly if they can bring someone in to replace him. if they sign fabregas and chelsea offer enough he will be gone.

  You think? I'm not sure they'll sell to Chelsea.
  
  I reckon if a foreign club came in they'd bite their hand off, they just don't want to strengthen their main rivals.

  i think they will because he definitely isn't the same player he was and he won't suit the style of play at chelsea. they will only play 1 up top and you have seen when he played for man utd in that position especially in big games he didn't perform at all. he's best in 442 off front with almost free role and he won't get that at chelsea.

  Can't argue with any of that, but will United be thinking that deeply about Chelsea's tactics when deciding whether or not to sell him?

  i think every club when making big descisions have to weigh up every detail big or small, so their style of play comes into because it will effect the impact he has for chelsea and against man utd points wise.

  I appreciate that, just think United's time would be better spent worrying about what they're doing, rather than trying to second guess Chelsea.

  fair enough. another reason i think they would rather sell is that he only has two years left on his contract and next season they won't get much for him if they sell, especially if he has the kind of season i think he might have if he stays.
