They were saying on Revista the other day that Barca would consider selling Cesc and if they are selling I would be all over Fabregas in an instant.
Optimus Prime said:Interesting little titbit in an otherwise Rag-centric piece in the Guardian - discussing their likely next manager and all the AMAZING work that super-CEO Ed Woodward is putting in this Spring to ensure another era of United-dominance, or some such United-PR Department-endorsed, face-saving piece of pro-Ed propaganda.
Has Ed not learned that gobbing off about potential targets being in the bag off the back of a couple of positive conversations, when nothing is completed in football until it's signed on the line, is precisely what made them look such a complete shambles last summer. Still - it's important not to learn, I suppose.
Although interestingly this piece comes from Daniel Taylor rather than their usual United PR mouthpiece Jamie Jackson, who normally does all of Ed's Public Image work for him.
Link is here if you want it: http://www.theguardian.com/football...hester-united-holland-manager-carlo-ancelotti, but to save you having to read the rest of the fawning nonsense included in the article, I've picked out the only line of interest below:
The club have reluctantly accepted that Porto's Eliaquim Mangala will end up at Manchester City but other players in that position have been identified to replace the departing Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand.

Daniel Taylor @DTguardian 20h
However, important to note priority is midfield and centre of defence. #MUFC want Mangala but accept he's almost certainly going to #MCFC
Cavani has had a terrible season.richards30 said:de niro said:sam-caddick said:They were saying on Revista the other day that Barca would consider selling Cesc and if they are selling I would be all over Fabregas in an instant.

Definitely agree. Look at who we've missed out on the last 2 seasons....de rossi, isco, hazard, cavani, pepe? Isco, pepe and cavani were last summer targets and imagine how different our season probably would have been! We have a class team but need a world class one! If fabregas is available blast everyone else out of the way and sign him!

I couldn't tell you why as I haven't seen him enough but I've seen him play 3-4 times for PSG, and he's been off form, and whenever I see him play for Uruguay he has also struggled.Rammy Blue said:Marvin said:Cavani has had a terrible season.richards30 said:Definitely agree.

Only because his confidence is shattered due to playing out of position and not being first choice.

Regarding a central defender I think we will and should go for Vermaelen.
