    Not a chance. United need Carrick more than Carrick needs United.

    Harry Redknapp's already denied he's going to sell Mordic to anyone
    All goals, yellow and red cards tweeted in real time on mastodon, BlueSky and facebook

    EG, regardless of whether the Modric thing has any legs (probably not) I'd say Carrick is currently held at net book value for accounting purposes. After clubs buy players they typically write down their value quite heavily each year as their contracts get closer to expiry. If they were to sell him now, they'd compare the sale price to his current book value rather than his original acquisition cost, no?

    Surely Man U would be able to offset any future operating profit in the next 50 years tax returns against the amount of interest they have to pay on their mega debt.

    Is he really their captain, my God!! Hot shot Hamish himself. Haven't seen anything of him at club level since Villa but the few times I seen him for Germany he didn't exactly look an improved player. Definitely don't have enough to go on though.

    The Bundesliga is rubbish compared to the Premier League. A player like Hitzi would love the Bundesliga.

    Good noises from Ferguson about Gibson getting a more prominent role this season:

    The long-serving Red Devils boss has hinted Darron Gibson could be given a more prominent role with his game improving all the time.

    "We had Fletcher and Scholes back for Wigan so it was just a matter of freshening it up," he continued.

    "We are also trying to push Darron Gibson on as much as we can because the boy has improved at a fantastic rate of knots."

    Wow neat.
    I mean honestly, that is exciting, the Man U manager saying he has "improved at a fantastic rate of knots"
    Good News. We can all agree on that. Good job, Gibson.

    i agree Crosby but he's done this before only to sell the player shortly after. Not saying hes not being genuine just be wary of ANYTHING the red faced scot says...
    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    He wasn't even on the bench for the debacle at Old Trafford.

    Not surprising. Why would he be on the bench for every match at a club like Man Utd? Not even Rooney makes the bench every game for United.

    Wayne Rooney has started all four league matches so far for Manchester United. Nobody cares about the Carling Cup so don't bother bringing it up. Meaningful matches are EPL, FA Cup and Champions League only.

    August 16 vs. Birmingham: 90 minutes, 1 goal
    August 19 at Burnley : 90 minutes
    August 22 vs. Wigan: 70 minutes, 2 goals
    August 29 vs. Arsenal: 90 minutes, 1 goal

    He's usually sat for non-important games. Would have been nice to see Gibson on the bench for a game of magnitude.
