Will Carlton Cole be replacing Dimitar Berbatov and Old Trafford Next Season?

There are a number of forces at play in this little rumour, which seems to keep going in spite of itself. Firstly, United have not got the forward to lead the line that they’ve been looking for, Dimitar Berbatov, for all his guile [...]

Yesterday, Paolo Fabbri, Vidic’s “advisor” alledgedly tells El Mundo Deportivo
“It would be a dream for Vidic to play for Barcelona, as he wants to play in La Liga.
“We have to take a close look at the situation but things are complicated right now. Manchester United have just lost Cristiano Ronaldo and Carlos Tevez, and [...]

Fantasy football managers across the world will be despairing at the the rumours of Ryan Shawcross returning to his old club Manchester United. With the injury to Johnny Evans on the weekend, United are without the first, second and third choice centre halves for at least a week. They still have John O’Shea, [...]

In spite of protests to the contrary, it’s really really difficult to believe that Fergie won’t be making at least 1 major purchase this season. The latest name being bandied about is Valencia’s David Silva.  Silva is a significant talent, and would fit in well in any team.  Given Ronaldo’s left, presumably Rooney is [...]

Who they need
Regardless of you opinion of Ronaldo, he certainly leaves a hole in the Man Utd squad, combined with the loss of Carlos Tevez, there’s 40 goals a season, plus a prodigious amount of work and assists that no amount of Michael Owen or Antonio Valencia can replace. In spite of protestations to [...]

After winning the premiership for the 3rd year in a row, this was shaping up to be the summer of Fergie, sadly, not everything’s gone to plan.  It was clearly on the cards that Asshole was leaving at the end of the season, so it was extremely odd to not bother making an effort to [...]

United are keen to spend their hard earned cash on some attacking options, and Villa is certainly a good one.  The Mirror seems to think that Fergie has sanctioned a £45 million bid for the Spanish forward.  He’d be an excellent option for the Red Devils, he supplies goals at an excellent rate, he’s fast, [...]

Real and Man U were in talks, & now they’ve agreed a fee. £80 million for the Portuguese wimp. All that’s left to do is the plastic douchebag to agree terms with Real and Ladies and Gentlement we have a deal.
Here’s what the Mancs have to say about it:
At the request of Cristiano – [...]

Real Madrid, another team who’s defensive lineup could *ahem* use some improvements. As mentioned previously, having been thoroughly eviscerated by Barca this season, Real have a lot of catching up to do. The return of Florentino Perez is indicative of a return to the golden age of Galacticos, when Real didn’t necessarily win [...]

The papers are abuzz with the news that Asshole Ronaldo  may be finally leaving these shores, and taking his whiney ass to Real Madrid. Or not.
As usually we have a massive variety of stories from each of the venerable institutions that form the British press.
The Sun is adamant that he’s on his way, although if [...]
