Manchester United

So is the rumour.

A really good player, will be a good asset for them. Surprised that he doesn't want to take a CL season with Bilbao, they are not that common, but not a native Bilbao player that might mean it's not that important.

£50k a week seems rather low IMO for a big transfer. His agent must be a right div.

[danperkins]

Aye.

Looked very good at Bilbao under Bielsa but haven't seen much since.

Didn't make the Spain preliminary squad of 30.

Normal service is resumed.

First 6 fixtures:

Man Utd v Swansea
Sunderland v Man Utd
Burnley v Man Utd
Man Utd v QPR
Leicester v Man Utd
Man Utd v West Ham

For a brief moment I thought those were the opening fixtures in the Championship and United had actually been relegated. There is some amount of ****e in the PL next season.

Bilbao playing silly buggers with the Mancs .....they've let Herrera tour Carrington, get everything agreed and now they've rejected their £28.5m bid (release clause)

Good on 'em. They know Utd don't have the CL leverage, know they have loads to spend and know they're desperate. Fleece them for every penny.

Hehehe

It's the kind of thing that seems to happen to us quite a lot. But that's Ayre's fault of course.

Bilbao have always been a club that didnt need the money from Transfers due to how they get their players.

Its nice to see Utd getting treated like every other club now

They've completed his signing. Whatever was going on it didn't last long.

Another dent in the argument that you only get ripped off on British players.

Looks like the Shaw deal is close. Whenever you can spend £60m on Shaw and Herrera then you just have to do it!
