I think Ferguson will come out of retirement by Xmas.

He is that club.

He is not well enough, I don't think people actually understand this he has retired and will not be coming back
His health wasn't the reason for his retirement, it was the lack of funds to strengthen a relatively poor squad, that was ageing, and in the face of the fact he knew that City and Chelsea would be spending considerably.

Glazers aren't for spending money, they are for taking it out of the club, hence the appointment of Moyes, not Mourinho, who would have gone there in a flash had he been offered the job.
 
Anyone see the tweet on there official page about Ronaldo which was removed.

Love it if it was a piss taking blue.

Manchester United are increasingly confident they can bring Cesc Fabregas and Robert Lewandowski to Old Trafford this summer after being given private encouragement from both players.
New United manager David Moyes would ideally like to bring both the Barcelona midfielder and Borussia Dortmund’s Polish international striker to the club before his squad departs on a tour of Asia and Australia in the middle of next month.
It is understood that both players have expressed an interest in joining the Barclays Premier League champions and that United feel they can do the deals.

Double strike: Man United believe they can land Cesc Fabregas and Robert Lewandowski (below)

Robert Lewandowski
Fabregas’s former club Arsenal have first refusal on the 26-year-old if he leaves the Nou Camp this summer but United are understandably confident that Old Trafford may prove more attractive to a player who spent eight years with the London club before moving back to Spain two summers ago.
Lewandowski is keen to move to England after his hopes of a switch to new European champions Bayern Munich were dashed this week.
United have been tracking the Polish star for months and believe he could provide genuine competition for Robin van Persie, who will be 30 shortly before the start of the club’s title defence in August.

Challenge: Robin van Persie could do with a tough challenge for his starting berth at Man United
His arrival would also increase the pressure on Wayne Rooney, who asked to leave Old Trafford towards the end of last season. Meanwhile, United goalkeeper David de Gea is relishing the chance to work with Moyes after getting over the ‘surprise’ of Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement.
De Gea, who is in Israel helping Spain’s bid to retain their European Under 21 crown, is confident former Everton boss Moyes can seamlessly take over from Ferguson.
‘Of course I am looking forward to the new season,’ said De Gea.
‘It was a surprise to us all that Ferguson left. But we know that when we get back to training Moyes will be there and it is going to be a pleasure to work with him.
'But we know that when we get back to training he (Moyes) will be there and it is going to be a pleasure to work with him.'

Making his mark: David Moyes would love to capture these huge stars and make an instant impact at Old Trafford

Leaving? Wayne Rooney has been linked with a move away from Manchester United
De Gea is currently playing for Spain Under-21s at the European Championships in Israel and has yet to concede a goal.
La Roja secured their place in the semi-finals with a game to spare, having followed up an opening day victory over Russia by beating Germany on Sunday.
'It was very important,' De Gea said of the 1-0 win against Germany.
'We are into the semi-finals again and we are very happy with that.
'They are all good teams when you get to this stage of a tournament, they all have a lot of quality.
'It will be difficult whoever we face. We have had two tough games and, thankfully, we have been lucky enough to get through.'
Spain are hoping to regain the crown they won in style two years ago in Denmark.
England Under-21s exited that tournament at the group stage and have suffered the same fate again in Israel after defeats to Italy and Norway - something that shocked De Gea.
'I'm surprised with England as I would have expected them to have put up more of a fight and win more points,' he said.
'I thought they would have been in the semi-finals, but that is football. Sometimes these things happen.

I cannot stand the media ffs. I've read on numerous occasions now that Cesc explicitly said he is not leaving Barcelona but noo...he is joining them. I guess those season tickets sales aren't going so good? At least there will be some very disappointed rags.

How else do you think they can get the likes of Mexican Banking giants INVEX to invest?

By stating that they are trying weely weely hard to "bring Cristiano home", but will likely end up with Russell Osman from Everton.
