Possible ins and outs in January -

Outs-
Leighton baines 18m
Johnny heitinga 4m
Ross Barkley 20m(loaned back for rest of season)

Ins-
Bruno martins indi 5m (feyenoord)
Andres guardado 9m (valencia)
Mathias valbuena 14m (marseille)
Adriano 6m (Barcelona)
Rod fanni 5m (marseille)
Fernando 14m (Porto)

These are just possibilities, not gunna all happen but I can see one or two of them hAppening.

Pw efc

Can't see Barkley going yet he's already ready said Gerrard told him to stay and he loves everton and playing for the and with a chance of going to Brazil he will have to play every game and everton won't be stupid and sell him before a World Cup where if he gets a few cameo appearances his price will rocket.

No, let's not be silly now.

What a load of tripe.

Baines = perhaps likely to leave, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is for £3m less than you put.
Johnny = you're correct again. Likely to leave but w/ 6months on his contract at that time, £4m is perhaps like getting £10m for Li Tie with 2 weeks left on his contract (basically, not going to happen). I reckon £1.5m would be brilliant business for us, but even that might be too much for willing-to-negotiate clubs.
Barkley = I can't guarantee it, but I'd put money on him staying beyond January with a contract at Everton not a loaned one from Chelsea, etc. (and I've never bet before, so that says how sure I am)

------

Martins Indi = wouldn't be surprised if it happens. Depends on wether JH stays until the end of season or not I'd guess. I don't know about the price, but I'd say you're more likely than not close to how much we'd need.
Guardado = as far as I'm aware, we've been linked with him once in the papers. Anyone's guess as to what will happen.
Valbuena = possible, yes. At the price stated though perhaps not so much.
Adriano = wouldn't think so, but you never know. Would more than likely depend on if we're still pushing for CL and, hopefully, higher.
Fanni = linked once in the papers (today I think), but let's be serious, another right back? It's a position we have very good cover in. Perhaps our most covered position in terms of number of players. Lazy journalism unless they know something we don't regarding our current right backs.
Fernando = would definitely think so considering Gibbo's absence. Money shouldn't be a problem (I say that for Fernando but not Valbuena because £14m is the price we got roughly quoted in the last window I think. Maybe less as I think it's the last 6 months of his contract in January.)

Those are just my opinions, but most will agree they are mostly correct in terms of using common sense to try and think of the most likely outcome for those situations.

I'd love to hear other people's opinions, though.

If baines does leave in january I think a decent replacement would be Neil Taylor from swansea.

Fernando and Martins Indi possible incomings for around £15m, Baines possibly leaving for the same price.

The other outgoings no chance at those prices, maybe we'd get half a million for Heitinga, or a nominal fee to get his significant wages of our books but Ross, not a chance.

I can't see many more dealings than that, 2 players in and possibly 2 out in total.

seriously guys? seriously?,
1.baines will go imo but don't rule out him staying
2.heitinga can go, cheers for anything you did but yep bye
3.barkley will not go in january especially not to chelsea, they just signed willian, schurlle and have de bruyne back plus mata, oscar, hazard, marin, piazon and moses how can he possibly get in that team in the attacking midfield role and btw if mourinho is expecting him to play a deep role and replace lampard he is clueless (cant stand him!) because ross would struggle immensely here
4.does anyone know anything about fernando? we are linked with a player once and everyone is like 'we must sign erm what's his name, whoever we have been linked with, fernando that's his name!', I rate him very highly but people need to calm down

rod fanni is a joke mate and adriano, people moan about naismith but jesus this guy okay he is ambidextrous (spelling) with his feet almost perfectly and can play left back and left wing but he doesn't offer all that much mate apart from a left wing more versatile version of naismith with a bit less effort and care

We have had a great start to the season, we could be higher but we could be lower and personally I am very happy with our signings and our overall performances in each game, imo baines will go although I wouldn't be suprised if he stayed even though he isn't united quality (lol), barkley will not go to chelsea and he will definitely not go to united (one not so good game vs villa and nick powell is now much more talented, yenno nick powell the player who just about stands out in poor teams doing badly) but I digress, I am not going to kiss osman and howards arses after one game, I still think osman isn't good enough to be a starter and I do think howard is good but not that good, I think we need another central midfielder and another centre back (dunno anything about indi or whatever), but anyway let's look forward to a bright future under martinez, we have some fantastic youth talents and a great squad, onwards and upwards COYB!

So Howard is 'good but not that good' and yet you don't think we need a GK?

27 Oct 2013 18:57:28
He is a good keeper amd will do, we need a better replacement then joel robles, howard is good enough for the first team but he isn't as good as some people are saying, he isn't conceding goals left right and centre so why would we need an imminent goalkeeper?

David Moyes is bringing out his own brand of stock cube. apparently its called laughing stock.

Not even worthy of Tarby.

Too late, mate.

I really shouldn't be, but I can't stop laughing at this

Baines is the best left back in world, is only 28, and is under contract for another two years, the reported fee of 15m is outrages, you want the best, you pay the price, which at a minimum, should be 25m. Plus, if chealsea want barkley, ok, we want LUKAKU, STRAIGHT SWOP.

29 Oct 2013 06:13:12
jesus mate calm down, I would not do a straight swap barkley for lukaku and baines is worth 15m max, he is worth more to us but unfortunately united don't care and neither would anyone else after him

Hi ed what type of midfielder is George green? And can you see any of the u21 team getting in to the team this season

Thanks
Wasy {Ed025's Note - a very creative one wasy, but i cant see any coming through this season mate, unless we have an injury crisis..

Good to see martinez knows what a tactical substitution is, first west ham now villa he's really changed the game with who he's brought on. On another note barkley is looking a little jaded, may need a rest.

You forgot to mention the stevie peanuts substitution last week kiwi.
