    Manchester United are reported to be considering making a major move for Milan's Gennaro Gattuso.
    Might be a good signing, though im not 100% sure after the CL Final...

      First sensible move by Ashley Cole - the next thing he should do is to sack his agent.

        Yeah, his agent is an idiot to be honest...

        QUite interestingly, Louis Figo might be leaving Madrid this summer. Only has a year left on his contract, and although United, Liverpool, Spurs and Boro are apparently all interested in, he says he would relish the chance to play for Liverpool or United. Apparently Arsenal and Chelsea are yet to show an interest, probably because Chelsea already has two amazing left wingers, and Arsenal has one good one and one that has the potential to be very good.

          Not much Arsenal news, except van Persie did really well in the world cup qualifier against Finland, and Quincy stole the show in Holland's U-21 World Cup match against Japan.

          Our new stadium just passed the half completion mark:







          It's starting to look like something now

          We've also started selling apartments near the new stadium - it's selling really well:

          Arsenal fans descended on Highbury's marble halls yesterday for the chance to purchase apartments next door to the club's new Emirates Stadium.


          This is probably where our transfer money is coming from. I would be interested in buying such an apartment if I lived in London, or if I had any money

          The Highbury redevelopment apartments will be nice too (great to be able to literally live in Highbury, and walk around the "pitch" every day).

                  I don't think van Persie is stupid enough to get himself involved in that. Hopefully, it will turn out just like that story about a fight involving Quincy after the player's awards event, in the end he was only guilty of being near the scene, rather than being involved.

                    Its not like the press let the facts get in the way of a headline is it ? Mind you the Finnan one is a bit odd - not sure whether it was a hit and run as the incident happened in January but he has only just been arrested and I certainly don't recall any news of it before....

                      Yeah, not sure about the whole Van Persie scenario, hopefully for the name of football its incorrect. As for United ticket prices....its annoying, but just look at Newcastle and i guess people still pay for it.

                      Glazer now owns 97.3% of United, but i still havent sold my shares. Im always going to be an owner of United, be it a very small part none-the-less.

                        Rumour is the woman in question has a history of making accusations.

                        Doesn't Glazer's 97% mean that he can issue an automatic buyout of all the remaining shares?

                          Yeah thats what I understood, its now at the point where Glazer can buy out Oriphus without his/your consent - sorry !!

                          The Van Persie things sounds a bit like the Leicester Teams problems in pre-season training a few seasons ago doesn't it ? In that case the "victims" were badly discredited too.

                            Actually, not entirely the case. I wont sell and therefore will be given shares in the new Manchester United. They are pointless really, a bit of a waste of money, but its more that i cant be bothered paying the £15 fee for retreival of my shares, and go through the hassle of siging forms and posting things back. I didnt have many so its no big deal...

                            Chelsea making a few stirs at Lyon lol - want their midfielder Essien in return for 15 million euro and Kezman

                              Park Ji-sung looks like he is coming our way. Watch this space over the next day or two. Figo still undecided, not sure we would benefit from him at United.

                                I wonder if the Park Ji-Sung signing would be considered as a Ferguson signing or a Glazer (ie. shirt sales in Asia) signing. Also PSV is a Chelsea club now (sister club), so I assume Chelsea had first refusal over him?
