Morgan Schneiderlin Signs For United

[mark87]

Wasn't he just being brought in to bring up the home grown quota?

Yes.

 

[ebzrascal]

I sort of hope we are past him. There's a certain degree of pathetic-ness to us hanging round hopefully in case he doesn't get a better offer and settles for us like we're the last tolerable person left in a club at the end of the night. Would certainly struggle to form an attachment to him in a Spurs shirt knowing he'd leave us in a shot for a bigger club and wasn't arsed about the move.

If we are successful why would he leave especially once we are in the new stadium? I thought that was the whole point of building it. To allow us to attract and retain great players.. Personally I would rather risk £25 million on Schneiderlin than £15 million on someone from Italy Germany or Spain who may not adapt well the the premier league.

 

[worcestersauce]

Well he said it would be below 27m I think it'll rise to 27m.

Ah, I thought you meant one of Daniel Levy's promises that it'll rise to £27m which usually ends up being less than £27m.

UNITED STILL IN FOR SCHNEIDERLIN

Manchester United may be on the verge of adding to their midfield ranks with a deal for Bayern Munich midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger but according to Sky sources, the club are still interested in bringing Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin to Old Trafford.


Meh, I hope that they'll just annouce this transfer in the upcoming days, it has become pretty tormenting.

 

[Topeka]

He will come to us: After witnessing the hype with the new stadium proposals who wouldn't transfer?

Delph is now staying at Villa. Wonder if this will bring City into the mix.

Good move by Delph, when I saw City in for him my instant reaction was "oh no not again!! " (Sinclair, Rodwell...).

if he does eventually sign for us it will feel like were the fat ugly girl at the nightclub and there s no one else left so i might as well go with you. Dont think i want him here now

That fat, lonely girl may end up repaying you with undying loyalty and gratitude. You may end up wondering what it is that's wrong with you because you didn't notice just how beautiful her face was from the very beginning.

Now reverse it, the gorgeous bird who hangs around with the football superstar all night but he turns out to be in the closet so she stuck with the chumps who are left, YOU! now would you turn her down? You'd be the only one.

No MS named in current Saints team to play friendly shortly

Given ITK say he has injury issues i hope we dont fork out 27M on a crock

I was thinking about this earlier - are we sure that referred to actual injuries as opposed to say the 'injuries' that are rumoured to keep people like Wilshere out of the squad for periods at a time? If anyone catches my drift....?

 

[Athan]

I thought the ITK that mentioned injuries was meant to be more like Bales injuries he had before he left for Madrid, just excuses until he gets what he wants and that his move. I'm probably wrong, it was just difficult to read tbh.

what, like a snow drift?

Indeed! I'm probably wrong though.

 

[yanno]

Indeed! I'm probably wrong though.

I read it more as MS may be p*ssed if he doesn't get a move and is still at SCBC at the end of the window.

MS played for Poch, and we hear a lot about how he values good trainers, good team ethic etc. If there was a Wilshere type problem, I think Poch and Mitchell would know, and he wouldn't be near the top of our list.

Strange deffo, he said expect an injury after he signs, so that might suggest something is brewing in his personal life that might affect his playing career
