Transfer Rumours 2013/14 - Real World Football - FM24/25 Update

Jamie Jackson's a pretty hit and miss journalist but it actually wouldn't surprise me. Kroos was definitely a Moyes target, we definitely wanted him under him but whether we still do is a matter of speculation.

Reckon he's the new WBA manager?

So after the reports earlier in the day that we don't care for Kroos he's now come out and said he's staying and never considered leaving. Sounds a bit like damage control from him, if you ask me, but the stories could have just come out the wrong way round.

Interesting that two players that Moyes was very keen on (Carvalho and Kroos) have been shot down by LVG, clearly has a different direction for this team.

Guardian are linking us to a £15m bid for Konoplyanka.

Got to say I like that, sensible transfer target, good price, area we need to strengthen and not breaking the bank to do so.

Their chairman is a duck. I believe we met his release clause, agreed a deal but then the chairman wouldn't sign the papers for it to go through (deadline day, January).

To be fair James McCarthy is fairly decent player. Not sure he's good enough now for Manchester United or would ever be good enough, but fuck he'd be better a better option than Cleverley or Anderson.

Depends on the price. I'd imagine Everton will want ~£20m, at that price I don't think he'd be worth it.

James McCarthy is a terrific footballer and he's definitely good enough for United.

He needs 1 more season playing with little pressure alongside Gareth Barry though. Plus Everton won't sell for cheap 1 terrific season after buying him for £13m

Wasn't that because you were trying to pay in installments or something?

I don't really believe it. I mean, he's a good player and I'd be happy enough with him, but I honestly doubt whether LVG has even heard of him, let alone decided that he's a priority transfer target. Media bollocks imo.

Personally I don't think he's terrific, he's not on the level of a Kross, Toure or Silva and they're the players I'd call terrific. Definitely agree he needs more time without pressure to grow as a player though, I think having Gareth Barry alongside him this season helped him a lot.

Manchester United will need to pay a fee close to €40m in order to secure the services of AS Roma winger Gervinho - the Ivory Coast international who struggled badly during a two-year spell with Arsenal

I'm amazed they've managed to convince somebody that David Luiz is worth that much money.

Does that just mean they haven't agreed a new deal yet?

I think so. I've seen Schwarzer say that he wants to stay and that the club wants him to stay.
Not sure though.
