Was only misinterpreted. Bild Twitter only said that Rummenigge told that Kroos will definitely stay at Munich next season. As Kroos has contract until 2015...
(and I think that could change when Kroos really would not sign a new contract - then the situation might change)
Once he sees United play he won't even entertain them.
If they would get Kroos they would need another good midfielder to accomplish him. He is too slow to play directly behind the strikers (if you do not have really mobile strikers) and too less defensive minded to put him in an equal central midfielder relationship. You have to play him with a defensive minded partner there. Else it would not work and he would not be a success. It would be a little like today where he is praised like a world beater when there is matches in which he can play out his strengths - and where he is blamed heavily in other matches. His nickname is Phlegm-Toni...
I do not think that Manchester United will always be where they are now. (I know that some or probably all of you would like it like this) The money generating machine behind all of this will not allow this. Somewhen they need to invest and not just pour money out of that club. And if I would be Kroos I would not mind playing no CL next year. He is still very young and already had success - it is not like for a 29-year-old that has to win something because he never did before and time is running out. And the first year in the EPL is very difficult for the most players. It is World Cup year, too. So having a year to adapt to a team and a league without matches every midweek especially after a strenous World Cup might not be that bad...
