Can't see Nasri going United but, if it did happen, it'd be a good move for him and United.....

Pretty sure Young to United is a nailed on cert....

Sneijder is obviously playing United and Chelsea (and prob. City too) off each other to get the best deal. I imagine he already knows which club he wants to play for, but is using the interest from the other(s) to get the best deal he can.

If Chelsea are willing to let Drogba go to another English club, surely Arsenal should be in for him.
Would be perfect for them, not just because he's a fantastic footballer, but because of his winning mentality.
Drogba is just the sort of player Arsenal need, though he can't have too many good years ahead of him, though I think he'd also be good for United if they want the CL, I think he's the sort of striker who'd give them problems and could bully their back 4 without much support. With him and Sneijder United would stand a better chance of hurting Barca... Though I'd rather see them both at Arsenal of course, or at least a player like Drogba. We haven't really got anyone to fill in for Fabregas at the moment, nevermind if he left.

I wouldn't be too bothered if Nasri left after his comments, and running your contract down never looks good, but I'd rather he didn't go to United, although it'd be interesting to see how he'd get on and I want the Prem to keep its best players and sign more top players besides. Hopefully Sneijder will come, maybe to Chelsea.

Fergie has said they'll sign a couple of players, maybe three by the way (before Jones), so him, plus replacements for VDS and Scholes by the looks of it, maybe another young player if someone comes up. I think Giggs can replace Scholes in the short term, so replacing Giggs on the left with Young is what you'd expect from Fergie.

How I wish the U 21's were on Freeview...
