We're being linked with RVN and Maxi Rodriguez, both of which are available on loan (Maxi's contract is up in summer and Athletico want him off the wage bill). 
 
Few linked with leaving as per usual - Voronin, Dossena, Degen (not sure now Johnson is out) and Babel. 
 
We're also being strongly linked with Arda Turan and Victor Moses, but cant see either happening unless we bring in some decent money from the sale of the above or the Yanks give us something to spend for once.

Again being linked with every player in the world united 
 
Moses is one for the last couple of months, with the palace captain saying he should go to us 
 
Wouldn't mind maxi rodriguez at united tbh, RVN better not go to the scum   
 
The four players you've mentioned to leave cosmo are shit so no loss 
 
We need nani to go

Yeah Im not fussed with all of them going, even Babel tbh as long as we get a decent amount for him (we'll make a loss but hopefully just not a massive one). 
 
I hope we sign RVN just to piss you lot off

Strikers Marouane Chamakh (Bordeaux), Andre-Pierre Gignac (Toulouse), Klaas-Jan Huntelaar (AC Milan), Edin Dzeko (Wolfsburg) and Carlton Cole (West Ham) have been linked, along with Rafael van der Vaart.  Sol Campbell is a free agent and has been training at Arsenal, Patrick Vieira (Inter Milan) could return to bolster the midfield and Ajax full-back Gregory van der Wiel is a reported target.

david james, matthew upson and maynor figueroa.  
 
David james is a geriatric and gomes isnt playing too badly at the moment. we have a half decent midfield and i think arry wants upson for sentimental reasons only. Not sure on figueroa

David James pisses all over Gomes though.

Spurs have also been linked with McGregor.  Hope not, he's amazing for us.   
 
If RVN goes to Liverpool (this may be a bold/ridiculous suggestion) but I think they can claw back into the top 4.  Torres and RVN would be frightening.  Because the big horse still has it and was born to score.

If RVN goes to Liverpool, I hope we bring Martin "Mad Dog" Keown out of retirement too. And let the fun begin.

I know, I was laughing at you even thinking he isnt an out and out goalscorer and having to check his stats.

I THINK what the lad was trying to say is, Torres likes to come deep and collect the ball a lot, whereas RVN is a predator.  They would work brilliantly together imo.  A player like RVN is a dream come true for the likes of Gerrard who can ping the passes about.

Comes back or not, you cant question he is an out and out goal scorer. The fact he had to look up the fact he has scored so many suggests he just didnt think he scored that much.

I didn't question his goal scoring abilities, or say anything to the contrary of what you just said?
