Hi eds, can you explain our chances with regards to moving to a new stadium or development of the bridge? Any news on the horizon?

all you guys slating rooney need to wake up & smell reality! He is not happy at united & hasn't been for some time, Therefore is not going to be playing to he's full potential! Infact no player on the planet plays well when they aren't happy, Jose will get the best out of any player regardless of who they are. If anyone says rooney isn't world class when he is on top form then you need your heads testing! Granted he is a bit injury prone & is always in the headlines but I for one am quite interested to see how he would get on at the bridge if he decides to join!

On his day he is a great player but he hasn't been for some time. Do we gamble £13million a year in wages alone that he'll come good?

Do we gamble 50 odd million on cavani though?

Or do we sign Cavani for around the same amount of wages plus the 50mil transfer fee, hoping he does the same for us as he did with Napoli?

Rooney all day long for me!

Mind you, with Torres and Ba gone, who's to say we can't sign both?

Rooney can play anywhere along the front 4, with Cavani and Lukaku we'd have 3 superb strikers!

Didn't we one say the same thing about a certain Mr F. Torres? Glad he played better after the move!


Just saying.

I have to agree with Situation88! Cavani use to play as second striker for last 5 years! Palermo played 352, Napoli played 352 and Uruguay plays 352! He always has a partner. He never played EPL so we do not know how he is going to fit in. Torres as well use to have second striker at Liverpool (Kuiyt mainly). Even when he plays for Spain he plays with Villa or Pedro. we all saw what happened in last two games when he played alone. Rooney is much more versatile player he play as striker. AM, winger or even CM. Maybe v. Persie scored 30 goals but how many assists came from Rooney! Plus he is on of favorite Mourinho's players. sorry about spelling.

The reason Hazard, Oscar & Mata played so many games last season was because we simply did not have the back up, bringing rooney in would solve that problem straight away, he would slot into CAM & can also play striker if need be he is very versatile, oscar could drop back into CM where I think he is most benefical, Hazard, Mata, & Schurrle on the wings & possibly bring in Van Ginkel or Thiago for CM! I can see cavani being a flop! The english game is far too quick for he's style of play

Hi Ed - it has been suggested that we have agreed terms with Cavani's representatives. How is that possible if we haven't agreed a fee with Napoli? Surely Napoli would have to agree to us talking to Cavani's people.?

You've answered your own question mate. We would've spoken to Cavani's agent about his willingness too join, and his salary expectations. We can't agree a deal with him, while he is contracted to another club. Just more trash that the media is reporting.

Napoli may have given permission to discuss terms with Cavani if they believed a fee would be agreed as it would speed up the process, as opposed to drawn out negotiations for fee and wages
