According to the telegraph, would imagine if its true Fabio would be a loan

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/manchester-united/9205873/Manchester-United-agree-a-deal-to-sign-Benficas-Nicolas-Gaitan-for-20m-plus-Fabio-and-Federico-Macheda.html

I saw that last night Punt.
He's such an idiot.
He claimed on Final Score that all the pressure was on Man Utd to win the league and if they win the derby they'll do it as Man Utd have a tougher run in than City as United still have Sunderland (A) and Everton (H) to play (both not playing for anything). Savage then said about City still have Newcastle (A) but Crooks just completely dismissed that game as an easy win basically.

As I said yesterday, Utd website announced that Fabio will be leaving on loan next season (something many on Utd board bemoaned) so if it says permanent it's false.

Not convinced he is the out and out CM we need but there you are

Eurgh, I hate it when Savage is correct

No it says fabio loan, prob a replacement for Scholes, think man utd will buy 2 or 3

Giggs, Scholes, Berbatov willl all be replaced

Surprised Man Utd would do that deal, Gaitan is a great player but plays LM or SS, Man Utd don't need another LM they need a CM and with Evra performances not that great you'd think Fabio would play more often and if Evra is injured who else is available for LB?

Odd if it happens.

Exactly, that's how bad Crooks has been.

I've also noticed for his 'team of the week' he picks like 4 strikers every week which isn't really a 'team'. This week being no different with Aguero, Tevez, Fortune and Drogba.
Along with 2 attacking midfielders in Sigurdsson and Mata.
Surely there should be some sort of structure for the team?

I feel a bit sorry for Fabio. He was supposed to be the better of the twins but has had Evra in front of him for however many years.

I totally agree with both those points LSTD, not convinced by Gaitan at all. I'd expect more likely are Strootman-esque players

And I really hope that Fabio leaving on loan is a sign we are tying Zeki Fryers up on a long term deal & plan to use him next season

I heard that Fryers was stalling over a new contract.
Seems to be the same situation as Morrison and Pogba.

What is it with our youth players at the moment?

Spurs are watching fryers and gonna try and nick him

Yeah I heard it January, and it's resurfacing again

How can Pogba but be sorted? Sign him up & play him
Or let someone else in

It seems to be the agents though wanting more money not the players.

But why do Spurs need him when they have BAE & Rose?

Exactly, I don't blame the players (well not 100%) moreso the agents

He can play CB aswell and Spurs's CBs aren't getting any younger.

Dont rate rose that much tbh

Fair enough, well if he's looking to play CB then he wouldn't get too many opportunities for us, but can see some coming at LB...

what about adrian durham as a pundit lol.

he said van persie lacked class when he scored that pen vs wolves

Ye I think Arsenal are definitley top 4 now. Spurs seem to have the easier run of fixtures to get 4th but even then I can see them slipping up.

Oi jet you know am counting on you getting points off those around hull mate....
