L’Equipe reports that Schneiderlin have agreed terms with Man Utd. Solid signing for them defensively.

[Fosterbloke]

****ing hope not. Perfect replacement for Carrick if true. £24m as well. Only £4m more than Lovren. **** me.

[danperkins]

Be delighted if United pay that much for Ramos. Schneiderlin though would be a cracking signing for them.

[Daniel 7]

Southampton are cheating at Football Manager. They've read about all the ringers in the game, bought them on the first day and are reaping the benefits now!

[danperkins]

Unbelievable profit they've made. No doubts Ward Prowse, Mane & Wanyama will be worth a small fortune next season. Be interesting to see who they bring in.

[tanner]

Very good purchase if its true. I've been banging the Schneiderlin drum for a while now, the only Southampton player I've been interested in and he's going to Utd. Typical.

[danperkins]

I'd be very curious to see how Ramos would gets on in the premier league, IMO he'd have a nightmare and I would very much welcome that if he's playing for United. Personally I think he is a liability defensively. He's very good on the ball and he's quick, but he has been at fault for so many goals at Real & is so prone to brain farts. Always felt Ramos should be played as a DM away from the back line as he makes so many mistakes back there.

I wouldn't be surprised if Rafa knows this about Ramos.

maybe this would be an idea for lovren

try and make the best use of our meagre resources.

The only problem with that is that Lovren would be on the pitch playing for us.

He did play a few games in DM for Madrid this season, he looked okay against the lowly Spanish teams but got absolutely torn apart by Juve. It was actually painful to watch.

[Shaggy]

I rate Ramos but I do think his playing style means he has the potential to be a disaster over here. He's miles and miles better than any of their CBs but I wouldn't wanna be lashing £45m on him.

[RichC]

He's certainly an upgrade on Smalling, Jones and Evans.

I'd argue that Ron Vlaar is an upgrade on that trio.

[kev776]

He is a red card waiting to happen, bring it on !
