Manchester United are ready for massive summer over haul and look to sign world class stars in the upcoming transfer window.
According to reports, the Red Devils are set to announce Louis van Gaal as permanent manager on Monday and are closing in on three top quality signings.
The players in discussion are, Luke Shaw of Southampton, Toni Kroos of Bayern Munich and last but not the least Edinson Cavani of PSG.
Shaw has been one of the best players in the premier league and arguably the best left back this season as he was voted in the team of the year.
The England international is going to cost around £22m as per the provided link and United must splash the cash to lure him.
Kroos has been heavily linked with United for months and it looks likely that van Gaal wants to re-united with the German international at Old Trafford.
With van Persie already there, few supporters have doubts that Manchester United should actually sign Cavani or not.
However, if he is available and ready to come then there should be no second thoughts. The Uruguayan star is still one of the best strikers in the world and very versatile as well.
Signing the mentioned players is easier said than done and it will be a major coup of Manchester United can sign these stars knowing that they cannot offer them Champions league football next season.

Good one,but,we dont need any striker at United,United is a striker house already,because we have many of them,even the younger one&all is affecting the team,lead to some players playing out of position,so,i think Cavani should drop though he’s one of the best,but,remember that all United strikers are world class as well,we only need midfielders&one or two defender(s),so,Van Gaa should go for Rues&likes.
I would not agree that all our striker are world class, wellbeck though good is not world class, he has not score as much as he should given the chances he is presented with, Chicarito has problems controlling and holding the ball up. his touch lets him down too often. Rooney and Van persie are not consistent enough as well
I think lots of changes need in MAN Utd squad.
Left back – Shaw would be good signing, As vidic, ferdinand, evan would leave so need Two world class center back,
Midfield- Must sign Reus, Kroose would be good sign if sold fellani.
Striking zone- Rooney & Persie, no doubt world class striker but they are not consistence and at the end of their carrier best… So must replace one of them with a world class striker like suares from liverpool rather than cavani.
wellbeck & Chicarito are avg quality player, so keep one of them as backup striker and sold other.
Finally must sold- Nani, Anderson, A.Young, Flecher … and raise the fund
You sound as if we have no world class striker at all
we just dont need cavanni no matter how top class or playable in the wings, nor do we need muller who we’ve also been linked with. We need kroos/strootman (not both), carvalho, shaw, hummels & reus if possible
United is one of the most organised team in the world via striking line so there is no need for cavani
united only need mid field of kroos / carvalho and a serious no 5 defender. muller is not the material i can compares him to Tom clevery
Man United is a great team up front and only quality delivery from middle has been problem. We need to enforce midfield with the likes of Kroos, Rues, Carvalho, Koke with couple of defenders like Hummel, Thiago Silva to full fill vacant position of Vidic and may be Ferdinand and biggest problem this season has been the wings specially left wing as the likes of Young, Nani, valencia have all disappointed.
Also a left back if Evra is certain to leave.
You all are right guys, we don’t need any striker with Rooney and persie there
Certainly we don’t need Cavani or Muller those are not man u type and moreover we have Rooney n RVP,the signings I think we need is Reus,Strootman,Kroos and defenders 1 or 2…let’s forget about Cavani and try and make ours world class(welbeck/Chicharito)
That’s true,midfielder has been a disappointment,Carvalho,kroos,Fabregas,Reus,Strootman will do since Koke is certainly not leaving,Defenders also,Shaw,Silva,Garay will do
You are right mates. No need for Cavani and Muller.
Cavani improves united massively Rooney is not a good enough striker he’s scored less goals than aguero and aguero has been injured the majority of the season we didn’t score enough this year too many Gomes we went behind and had nothing going forward, cavani is the kind of player that wins leagues Rooney just f***s United with his childish attitude and taking 300 grand a week so he a drop back and play in midfield leaving either an isolated striker or not striker at all. Welbeck is good but not world class same with Hernandez a strike force of rvp cavani Welbeck and Wilson would be awesome
What would Cavani deliver that has not been delivered by Rooney nd RVP. Striking force is not united’s problem, all we need is a creative midfielders and a solid defenders that will fill the vacuum Vidic left behind.
You’re allright Man u doesn’t need Cavani or Muller, We need Milfield players such as Kroos,Fabregas,Carvalho,Koke if available, song and defenders such as Luk Shaw,Garay,Thiago silva and even Dan.Alves
Good news for man utd that van gaal is coming with the top quality player is searching for such as luke shaw, marco reus nd thomas muller, we don’t need any striker, we have rooney, van persie, chicharito, wellbeck nd wilson
We need top quality defender instead of cavani
As long as the mid-field is taken careof even the under performers will appear as world-class. So we only need re-enforcements in defence as well as mid-field
Without creativity in the midfield, how will strikers score? Aguero n Sturrige have been scoring because they have complete midfield. No striker is empty with a good mid options. Get Kroos, Cesc and Shaw. Sell Fellaini n Cleverly to get funds too
Rooney is not world class, Van Persie is. Wellback s too patchy and hernandez is absolute pants. we need quality in depth and class midfielders and defenders. get rid of nani, young, cleverly too.
We really do not need Cavani as he is not better than what we already have, however i think Muller is class and would definitely have him instead of.. Welbeck & Chicharito! this would be an ideal lineup next season…
De Gea:
Jones: Garay: Hummels/Mangala: Shaw/Moreno:
Januzaj: Carvalho: Kroos: Reus:
Rooney:
RVP:
But we don’t need a left back,I believe if you give buttner more playing time he will be a good replacement for evra,as for cavani,I don’t think is necessary because we have enough striker. What we need most is two strong and creative midfielder and one defender,a winger. Get us mangala,toni kroos,rues
I’d give smalling and Evans more playing time in pre season but sign hummels carvallio reus, get cavani in coz rvp injury prone sell young cleverly and fellaini and get a holding midfielder???
Why would anyone compare Aguero to Rooney, the former has Toure, Silva, Fernandinho n Nasri to do the required work… Rooney has guys like Cleverly, Young, Valencia, but still does everything to overhaul Sir Bobby.. Waza is literally a talisman, United need Kroos n Reus so dearly.. everthing starts from midfield while defense gets tighter, united stil got defensive qualities in Rafael, Smalling,Evans n Jones.. may be Shaw would replace Patrice…. I would go for De Gea, Rafael, Smalling, Evans, Shaw in defense.. Kroos n Fellaini in defensive mid while Reus, Rooney, Mata n RVP lead the attack … oh! n with Van Gaal, United would b a force to reckon with..
i think Van Gaal is good if not best exprienced.
sell young,nani,clevery,fellaini and anybody willing to go!
bring in:hummels,felipe luis or luke shaw,rues,cesc,christian rodriguez,
i know man united scouts have done enough go for the best and cheapest.dont overspend we have a big debt!!
woodward do something please.
Forget Cavani we’d be better off investing in his team mate Veratti. As for Rooney being world class? There should he no doubt. A bad season for man utd and he’s suddenly not world class anymore? The same with Messi this season, although his ‘bad season’ has been through injury, he’s been criticized because Ronaldo’s been on fire, yet Messi still managed 28 goals in 29 games this season, is that still world class? Rooney has netted 17 times in 29 games and is consistent. Doe Wayne Rooney deserve his 300k a week? Personally I’d say no but if our boars are stupid/desperate enough to give it to him, put yourself in his place, would you say no to such money each week? These next two season’s are to be big for him, to prove he’s worth the money, if not he could be sold by the club.
woodward do what is right.
don’t make panic buys like last time.
don’t overspend as we have a big debt on our hands already.
sell everybody willing to go.
don’t keep underperforming lads.
do the shopping early to ensure there is enough chemistry.
u know much than i.
all da best
we love united very much, this season we have been talk of all spheres coz of poor timing, do the shopping in the next two wks not other wise sir, have u heard of hummels,kroos,koke,reus, cavallo and shaw? these are enough not cavan sir. splash the pounds for those ones not forgeting sells of nani,valencia,clevery,fellain,young,chicha,welbeck,smalling,ferdinand do promote 3~4 youngsters. man utd for life.
Anyone questioning whether Rooney is world class have obviously not been paying attention. As mentioned by someone else on here, Rooney is closing in on Charltons record of goals for the club, a record that has stood for a few decades now (consider the players we’ve had in that time), and is doing so without the creative support that other players in his position have had. To look at total goals a season alone as a comparison and way of judging him have obviously not been watching either. He has had to and has had the responsibility of coming deep to provide creativity and defensive support for the team as well as being an attacking output and still managed to collect a very respective collection of goals and assists. Lots of people seem to rate RVP as a better striker seem to forget, he had one of the most creative midfielder in the league behind him at Arsenal (shocking defence let them down), and how many of RvPs united goals have stemmed from
Rooneys creativity and work rate. Rooney is easily one of the most complete players in the world and his contributions to the team in nearly every game he plays are exceptional. People also seem to forget in the season he spent as a solitary striker with better creative support and less responsibility in tracking back, he scored 34 goals in all competitions. Yet this is not the role he consistently plays.
On the point of the article itself, we do not need Cavani. We need a strong Centre half to partner Jones who should be allowed to make a single position his own. Along with this and looking as the players consistently linked, Shaw, Kroos, Carvalho and Reus would be the perfect additions.
Add creative players like Reus and Kroos to Mata and Januzaj, backed by a stronger defence, but Rooney up top with freedom to focus on that one role you watch him tear teams apart and we’ll see who’s world class.
yes all u said is true united dont need cavane we have quality strikers with the likes of RVP and ROONEY(‘LAWRENCE and WILSOM are both coming up so pls saf should only go for creative midfilder and one or two definders wt d like vidic n ferdenant to leave the club in the summer.
As for me.. Cavani should come, if chelsea gets him, we r in soup..van gaal should sell nani, young, evra, ferdinand, welbeck.. He should discipline the team bkos some of them are performing poorly.. Buy kroos, shaw, cavani, coleman to help rafael wen he is injured. Hummels or any big defender.. Captain shud b handed to rvp or rooney.. I would love man utd to hav a bench whereby wen things are going wrong in a match, substitutions can change the game in our favour.. Oppurtunity should be given to januzaj, wilson, janko, lawrence, lingard and powell
We have faced lot of criticism this season. With the departure of SAF, the confidence of our players has seems to be lost. Up front we have top class strikers who just need a push. All we have to do is to sign players like kroos, carvalho, shaw, and perfect replacement of vidic and ferdinand. Mathaius ginter of Germany can be one of them.
Let us get realistic mates. RVP is so injury prone. I would not count on him entirely, so Cavani would be great addition.
Main area to address is Midfield and defence though. Bring Reus,Cavalho,Kroos, Shaw and Mangala.
Sell off: Young, Nani , Fletcher, Cleverly, Anderson, Zaha.
