so, as we enter the summer transfer window, what you think will / should happen to these players who are on loan or have been sitting in the reserves all season?

wellbeck - should get 3 months at a team like Hull but chances are, he will stay in the squad and will get a few appearances here and there. overall chances of being a hit are excellent

eagles - i think his time has come to move on. i think we should sell him, maybe get 3 million for him

martin - sell to stoke perhaps, maybe get 1.5 million for him. overall, too light for united.

campbell - i think we should loan him out for another season with Hull, same as watford with foster and see how he gets on. overall chances of making - good. worth 5 million i would think, if we sold him.

dong - sell him. end of story. 2 million maximum, but we would be lucky to get 750,000. as to how he has not been loaned by now is very strange indeed.

what about the others?

thoughts please.

Its not make or break for Welbeck.

However it surely is for Martin,Eagles,Gibson.Actually I think all of the m will be sold to championship clubs soon.

Campbell will have another year to prove himself good enough for United imo.Other wise he looks like he could have a good career at mid table clubs in premiership.

Dong,I just don't undertstand the situation.

Eagles will leave because his contract is up. He's been a terrific specialist reserve player though.

Martin, always thought he had a lot of talent maybe it is time for him to leave or do what Eagles did this season.

Campbell, I think he will return to us next season but if he isn't playing much then he will get loaned out come January.

Dong - Chinese

Gibson - not sure what will happen, maybe he will get loaned out.

wouldn't be surprised if all were sold, except for Wellbeck. Dong hasn't been on loan because he's a non EU national. I think his visa is for a specific club only an

too early to be loaning Welbeck out imo. would rather keep him with us until January at least, keep him training with the first team, playing for the reserves and maybe getting the odd spot on the bench for the first team.

I don't see a future for Simpson either. He's 21, he needs games. Not going to get them here. Too bad Keane already bought Bardsley at RB or he might've been interested again, had a good loan period there in 2006/07.

Might need another loan in order to go in the shop window, but I don't see him in a United shirt.

I am not a man........I am Cantona
He not exactly wrong considering the question was asked over a year ago and Kiko has only re emerged in the last 2/3 weeks.

Kiko's come on alot in the last 6 months, begining to learning to influence the game out side of the box which will be his biggest challenge as a professional. In the box hsis instincts are fantastic

No matter what happens to Macheda, I'll always love him for those two key goals last season that made the scousers cry.
I'd like to see him get some league playing time ahead of Owen at some point.

Has he been right most of the time?
Knows his shit, to be fair. :lol:

The rise of Macheda couldn't really be predicted and, even then, he's not really set the world alight. He introduced himself to football after the game against Newcastle reserves and obviously the Villa match, but he's still got a long way to go.
