James Robson ‏@JamesRobsonMEN 6m6 minutes ago United have agreed a deal for Schneiderlin. Medical already taken place

More... AFCPressWatch™ ‏@AFCPressWatch 2h2 hours ago Looks like #MUFC have also agreed a fee with #Saintsfc tonight for Morgan Schneiderlin. Deal could also be concluded by Tues.

Sound like this is done and dusted. http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/manchester-united-agree-morgan-schneiderlin-9641501

Chris Young ‏@YoungSunEcho 9h9 hours ago Jordy Clasie on his way to Southampton. However, like van Ginkel, told Advocaat is looking for a more attack-minded centre-mid #safc

They're going all 'galactico'' on us. Was surprised to learn that Bastian (I'm not attempting his 2nd name..) only made 15 starts last seaosn.

But you've never, ever, ever seen him play - so how can you come to that conclusion?

Inside The SPFL ‏@AgentScotland Jul 9 Swansea and Southampton have both made contact with Celtic about Van Dijk, both had positive talks with club but no official bid offered yet

Forty Nine Million?! That FFP is working wonders. Depay is a better player, he only cost £23m. British Players are so pointlessly overpriced.

I imagine there are a few clauses in that, which will bump it up a bit. But that really is a snip, when you consider someone like Rodwell set Sunderland back £12m last summer. Sounds like this is now moving very, very fast though. Going by the rate it's going, I'd say we could see an announcement early next week.

I don't think you can really class Crook as a journalist.

I'm amazed at how either he, or his ''wife'' seems to be so connected to every, single, club in the world. Impressive.

He's quality tbh. We could do a hell of a lot worse, would be a big investment as he'd be £14-15m

Yeah, building so much for the future that he was checking out other clubs in his last 6 months. If that isn't building for the future, I don't know what is. Enjoy supporting Arsenal/Man Utd next season, they're welcome to your looney tunes rants.

They'll have a hell of a lot of options if he signs, best midfield they've had in a long time. Hopefully he signs as a start though, and not just someone who will be on t he bench.

So, are we close to any signings?

Lucky, given that his ball composure is normally as good as an elephants.

I like Soares tbh, always offers himself in attack on an overlap and has a bit of grit about him too.

Just imagine this guy as commentator, with Owen as co-commentator. The TV station would have to invent an alternative ''mute'' commentary option.

There is simply no midfield out there. No room for error with the Morgan replacement.

So, Stoke missed out on Shaquiri, Konopolyaka and Soures. Lost Begovic and N'Zonzi and have signed Given and Glen Johnson. Ouch. That's gotta hurt.

I dunno, I'm personally looking forward to the thread moaning about others moaning about people moaning again.

I dunno, Williamson pushes him close.

I don't agree with what you say at all. edit, oh ****...

I can see Van Dijk being a target. And one which wouldn't ''underwhelm'' me what so ever. Terrific centre back.
