The Red Devils have been linked with a number of targets after failing to fill the void left by Roy Keane's departure, and Makoun has stated that his representatives have already met with the English giants regarding a summer transfer. The 22-year-old recently starred in the African Cup of Nations for Cameroon and caught the eye of Sir Alex Ferguson in the two UEFA Champions League fixtures between the two sides earlier in the season. Now Makoun says that he fully expects United to make a bid in the summer. "I know that United are interested in me," Makoun is quoted as saying in The News of the World. "They sent a scout to our game against Monaco last week, my agents have met United. "Apparently they want to sign me for next season. "There is no concrete offer for Lille but I know United will make one at the end of the season." The Red Devils are also believed to be keen on Lyon star Mahamadou Diarra, St Etienne's Didier Zokora and Deportivo's Aldo Duscher, and yet another candidate has emerged in the form of Makoun's Lille team-mate Mathieu Bodmer. The 23-year-old signed a new contract in December to ward off interest from Arsenal, but the player has revealed the new deal has a buy-out clause which could be attractive to United. "I've a clause in my contract that allows me to go if a club offers £5.5 million," said Bodmer. </div></BLOCKQUOTE> hes a great destructive midfielder and has also scored 4 in 3 this season. well done yet again fergie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz & The Devil Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Another very good performance that was all the better when you see the conditions it was played in. Our full backs probably spent more time in Blackburns half then ours and Rio and Vida continue their lean and mean partnership. Giggs i thought struggled to get into the game in the first half but was much better in the second. Carrick played some nice passes and even though i joked about him making a lot of passes a yard to the side for Scholes that isnt a bad thing. Saha was very good as well, some of his running and hold up play was great and Rooney was good getting involved with a lot of things but i still cant believe he hasnt come out with a couple to his name, two of those chances he missed. Scholes ran the show in the first half and was great in the second and MoM would usually have been his but Ronaldo was fantastic as well. Constant outlet for us, created a tap in for Rooney(How did he miss?) and no Blackburn player could get near him. Some of the one twos, bits of skills and fantastic runs. Tough choice but after thinking about it i'm going, MoM: Cristiano Ronaldo 2nd: Paul Scholes Oh yeah and O'Shea looked good as well. Another good performance, another win, even though i didnt think it would be our day as the game went on, another clean sheet and still top of the league. We cant ask for any more at the moment.

Weststandred Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Could we beat Barcelona over two legs? that is the killer question. I think so with the current form of our defence, any injuries would be a serious blow though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
? Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Right, a quick change of subject if possible: Question: Who shall be leaving OT this winter and summer '07? What got me thinking of this was my FM game where I signed a few players in places Fergie is probobly looking to improve on. I signed Mavuba from Bordeaux, Huntelaar in the summer of 07, and Jesus Navas of Sevilla at the same time. Here's what I think: Goalkeepers VDS to obviously stay, but after that we have two highly talented keepers in Foster and Kurzceck. How long will they tolerate being sub/loaned out for? Both are also the same age. I think one will leave at some stage. Oh, and Timmeh obv out of here. Defence: Hargreaves to sign at some stage. This would possibly give an overload in central midfield which could see either O'Shea or Silvestre leave.I'd hedge my bets on it being Silvestre as, O'Sheas versitility unfortunately makes him somewhat of an asset. I also have a sneaky suspision that Heinze may depart in the summer. He's now 29, which is about the age that United sell their most bankable assets (Becks, RVN, Veron, Stam etc...). Also, There seems to be no place left for Gerard Pique, who turns 20 in the summer. I think he'll leave. Midfield: Hargreaves to come in obv, but I also think that another winger may appear, due to the fact that Giggsy maybe wont play so many games next season. Nani of Sporting Lisbon, or Jesus Navas of Sevilla would be ace. Richardson to leave, as well as the two Jones's. As detailed before, perhaps O'shea, but I think that would be dependent on Silvestre's future and Hargreaves coming in. Fowards I think we're screaming out for a finisher (hence the short term Larsson signing), and there are big rumours that Fergie will move for Klass-Jan Huntelaar in the summer. Apparently Ajax dont want to sell until then. This would leave us with the following: KJH, Saha, Rooney, Solskjaer, Smith, Rossi. Unfortunately, something's gotta give there too. Smith is the obvious candidate to leave IMO, being the weakest of the 6. He would also be looking for first team football which we probobly could'nt give. Also there is the question of Rossi. Where can he be accomidated? He's no longer a prospect for the future, he's a now player who will want games, and unfortunately (apart from Ole), the other 4-5 are all young too. Maybe he'll be sold? Anyway, what are your thoughts on all this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark g Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Premiership clubs could count the cost as loophole allows stars to leave Why the likes of Frank Lampard, Ryan Giggs and John Terry will soon be able to buy their way out of their contracts. David OrnsteinJanuary 18, 2007 12:30 AM Several of the Premiership's leading players will be in a position to walk away from their clubs this summer by exploiting a clause in Fifa-adopted European Union law. Article 17 of the regulations for the status and transfer of players allows the likes of Frank Lampard and John Terry to buy out their contracts at Chelsea and then negotiate a move elsewhere. The former Heart of Midlothian defender Andy Webster made history by terminating his contract at the end of last season. Fifa ratified Webster's move to Wigan on September 4, seemingly creating a legal precedent for the conduct of international football transfers. The ruling utilised suggests that Hearts would only be entitled to an amount equal to Webster's salary for the remainder of his contract as compensation. This legislation could allow a raft of top Premiership names to follow suit. Referred to as the "protected period", if a player's contract was signed prior to reaching the age of 28 then, provided he has completed three entire seasons or three entire years, he is permitted to end the deal with 15 days' notice. If the contract was signed after his 28th birthday, only two seasons or years must be served. "The protected period refers to any players regardless of their age," said a Fifa spokesman, responding to a misconception within the game that the rule is applicable only to players aged 28 and over. In addition to Terry and Lampard, Chelsea's Arjen Robben, Manchester United's Alan Smith, Liverpool's Xabi Alonso and Arsenal's Freddie Ljungberg are among a list of top-flight players in a position to take advantage of the stipulation come the end of this season. Regardless of the fact that he may immediately negotiate with a new employer, as a free agent he personally must pay compensation to his former club and, although that fee is officially decided by a Football League or Premier League appeals committee, it is likely to be the amount that remained in his contract. A potential problem, which is believed to be the reason why no English-based player has yet to capitalise on the legislation, is the likely expense incurred. Lampard, for example, would be forced to pay Chelsea about £12m for his remaining two years. However, the clause could become a crucial negotiating tactic used by players and agents to obtain a better deal. "Article 17 is only likely to be used as a last resort [for a unhappy player]," said the sports lawyer Graham Shear. "I feel that its use as a strategy to leave a contract early as a free agent is problematic. "The interesting question in this particular game of poker is how a club would react if one of their players served notice as part of a negotiating ploy. At the top end of the market, the amounts you're talking about and the potential risks are too big. But a lower-profile player may be able to balance the risks against the potential compensation payable and indeed his prospective earnings." The agent Jerome Anderson added: "If there are genuine reasons for a player to want to buy out his contract that is only a good thing for footballers." Twelve players who could buy out contracts Frank Lampard, Chelsea Contract: Five years, July 2004 Protected period ends: May 2007 John Terry, Chelsea Contract: Five years, November 2004 Protected period ends: November 2007 Arjen Robben, Chelsea Contract: Five years, March 2004 Protected period ends: March 2007 Ricardo Carvalho, Chelsea Contract: Three years, July 2004 Protected period ends: May 2007 Alan Smith, Manchester Utd Contract: Five years, May 2004 Protected period ends: Has already ended Paul Scholes, Manchester Utd Contract: Two years, August 2005 Protected period ends: May 2007 Ryan Giggs, Manchester Utd Contract: Two years, summer 2005 Protected period ends: May 2007 Gary Neville, Manchester Utd Contract: Four years, November 2004 Protected period ends: Has already ended Freddie Ljungberg, Arsenal Contract: Four years, July 2005 Protected period ends: May 2007 Gilberto Silva, Arsenal Contract: Four years, September 2005 Protected period ends: September 2007 Luis GarcÃa, Liverpool Contract: Four years, August 2004 Protected period ends: May 2007 Xabi Alonso, Liverpool Contract: Five years, August 2004 Protected period ends: May 2007 </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confused Clarity Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Yeh, but then if the south coast club cannot fund the development of the kid, then i don't see why the south coast club should be able to moan about "losing" the kid. The problem with the Academy rules are that they base it on an idealistic Utopian structure. It relies on the fact that: - Every Club will invest the same amount of money - Every Club will have the best possible coaches - Every area has the same amount of quality players. - Every player will be happy to join a club within their catchment area. It's a pile of crap and it's flawed immediately from it's very concept. There is no reason why a club like Torquay cannot produce a good player of course. But some of these clubs need to downscale massively while other clubs, the bigger clubs could benefit from upscaling or widening their catchment area.
