Not in a million years.I can only assume that we expect Rooney to be off then if we're serious about Cavani.
See my 'Strikers' thread in the TF. Not as absurd as some may think, we will likely need TOP quality reinforcementupfront within 18 months, with Rooney off/Persie ageing.
Completely plausible Fergie would pick up the phone and call Larry White.
Don't see why not. He's a 'director' now. If another club's 'director of football' called to discuss a deal, it would be considered the norm.
Postinger: Calm, reasonable way to report the story.
Palmeri: SMASH CAPS LOCK!

If he's going to manage transfers for the two incompetents, why can't he also manage the team again?
Professionalism!
Dramatic! MAYBE NOT.
fan reaction? what in the actual feck?Tweet

He'd be worth it
He'd change our season for the better without a doubt.
Certainly the calibre of player we need. Would probably spell the end for Kagawa though, unless Rooney is definitely off.
You're kidding me, don't do this to me.
Must... Repress... Inner.. Muppet..
Swap deal for Gundogan perhaps?
some twatters are saying that daily mail is reporting the news too
Zip...coming...down....
The phrase 'close in on' is so often incorrectly used in transfer stories.
How is it that this has been quiet all day and only revealed now?
There is no way this is happening, no way!

Manchester United deny making bid for Chelsea midfielder Juan Mata - http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/manchester-united-deny-juan-mata-3042608#.Ut2tfxBFCHt …fun whilst it lasted.
Both articles didn't say that a bid had been made. Just that we were "preparing" one. Still bollocks anyway, but that Mirror article doesn't exactly contradict anything.
If the Mirror article is true, you've got to wonder why senior United sources are scrambling to deny such a rumor so late in the evening when they ignore hundreds of others.
Maybe it's a sign that it could be happening, maybe it's proof that The Mirror make up a load of absolute bollocks on a nightly basis.

The Telegraph never said that Manchester United made a bid. Both Telegraph and Mirror say that they were considering a bid so club officials didn't 'deny' anything.
Yes they did. They denied making a bid they were never accused of making.
Mata is a quality player but I am not sure he'd solve our biggest problems, although having him to play from the right instead of Valencia would be good.
Mata isn't what we need in the slightest.
10 minutes left to play against a WBA - an Everton or a Newcastle-side - I wouldn't mind Mata on the pitch to feed RvP or Rooney.
He wouldn't solve our biggest problem - but he has the creativity we lack.
Mata might not help with our most glaring weakness but I'd like to think its not a case of Mata or a CM. If we got Mata and still didn't get a proper midfielder in the summer then somebody would've made a royal feck up. Again.
He creates a shitload of chances. Already a very good start in my book
