This would be a fantastic get for us, can't see PSG selling though as Alves is getting on.

He's big, strong, technical and has a gem of a cross on him. One of the best RB's around and he's a United fan so he'd want to come. Unfortunately him wanting to move isn't enough, like you said - no chance PSG sell.
