Ah I was thinking that as well...but would he come back to be a sub or rather prefer first team football at this stage?

Depends on what he wants at this stage, I'm sure the wages would be similar and the chance to compete for trophies vs playing every week.

Yep he's definitely a poacher I meant perfect in the Solskjaer mold, super sub to get a goal here and there and start the odd game.

Solskjaer did alright out wide...Chicharito is less versatile. He's probably most like Van Nistelrooy though a rung or 2 down. I liked him alot but didn't feel he was good enough for United (at the time, we were also poor in general, I guess).

He was the solskjaer we needed - but LVG didn't want us to score goals so he was sold and every other striker was shipped out on loan so Rooney didn't have any competition

He was good on the right I remember him benching Beckham for a few games.
 
Our marketing/PR/Promo/Whatever team is really something when you see how our signings are unveiled - kudos to them
 
Some rumours emerging that Abramovic has intervened to approve possible Matic transfer to United - price at 50mil euro

Nice, as long as he doesn't go to a rival, I don't really care atm. He doesn't want to be at Arsenal anymore, and is in the last year of his contract. Better we cash in on him now than watch him walk into Chelsea or City next season for free.
 
Virgil van Dijk: Southampton defender training alone & wants move

Southampton captain Virgil van Dijk is training alone and wants to leave the club, says manager Mauricio Pellegrino.

Pellegrino has ordered the centre-back to train separately from the rest of the first-team squad because he feels the player is "not 100%" mentally.

Van Dijk, 26, has been strongly linked with a move to Liverpool this summer, although the Anfield club said they ended their interest last month.

The Saints remain adamant they will not sell the Netherlands international.

"He is not involved with the team because psychologically he is not 100%," Pellegrino said.

Speaking to BBC Radio Solent, the Argentine added: "When I was talking with him, the boy said that he is not available to play because he wants to leave.

"I need to work with a player that works at 100% to defend Southampton.

"This is the decision. I had to say: 'OK, if you don't want to be involved because you don't feel OK, you have to train alone until this period of time.'"

Pellegrino insisted his relationship with Van Dijk remains "excellent" and that he hopes the Dutchman will "review" his decision.

"We need the player, but 100% - this is the question," the former Alaves boss added.

"I hope that Virgil can review his feelings, because you know that today players are big business - not just the player but behind him there is a lot of interest.

"I want to help the squad, I want to help Virgil but we need a player, I repeat, involved in every training session, involved not just with the body but with the mind on the pitch with the rest of the players."

Southampton start their Premier League campaign in four weeks' time at home to Swansea City at St Mary's.

FINAL BID FOR KEITA?

Liverpool are reportedly planning a third and final offer of £75m for RB Leipzig’s Naby Keita.

According to The Independent, Liverpool feel the sum could be enough to finally persuade Leipzig to sell the midfielder. But German sources think it has become almost a matter of principle to keep Keita.

This is one to keep an eye on me thinks.

I thought those high release clauses are a joke, like lets just put a number, cause no one is dumb enough to break it.

PSG: "Here hold my beer"

Surely they can't sign Neymar or Neymar and Sanchez under FFP rules?
