Same goes for M'Vila, just tie it up already, rather than inviting other clubs to join in and we lose the player.

    Siggurdson just joined Swansea for about £7 mill, and it happened fairly quickly !
    We did bid for hazard but he wanted to stay at Lille and they didn't want to sell him.

    You can't always assume that it's our end that is being held up, sometimes it's the other party that causes the issues.

    Also, we bought podolski for £10m , and it happened fairly quickly

    You bloody tart!

    Kagawas off to united.

    RVP probably wants to leave.

    And is no one else noticing how the best players from the so called examples of poor teams winning leagues are being ripped apart. Doubt either will be a force next year.

    Tomorrow some off you will all be saying how money has made zero impact whatsoever. Blindly protesting that were a big club whilst completely oblivious to the football economy that drives the sports foodchain.

    Seems as though United are confident of signing both Hazard and Kagawa.

    Damn.

    I hope Hazard dislocates a finger signing the contract. A diva, and he's only 21! He would be a nightmare for us, Barca dna would pop up after a season... no thanks.

    Damn Kagawa is some player . Apparently he's going to cost up to £16 million.

    'United is believed to be hopeful of wrapping up a quick deal but it is understood that Arsenal's interest remains strong and the Londoners could also submit an offer for a key figure in Dortmund's back-to-back league titles.'

    Can't be right because as we all well know it's all about money, they must be going to Man City since they have the most.

    We're so slow when it comes to transfer negotiations that I think they're pretty safe, they should have most of the summer to wrap this deal up.

    You're saying money isn't a factor?

    I'm saying money isn't the only criteria as some people seem to think. Money comes into it but for many players there are other factors such as style of play, manager profile, previous successes, probability of playing regularly, location.

    There's lots of factors, I don't think players sign for Man U purely because of the financial side, in a head to head vs us they are more successful and have been much more successful in recent years, more ambitious in terms of chasing success and have more international appeal generally due to success in Europe as well.

    Being a successful club brings you a lot of prestige and that's attractive to players.
