Baines Flattered by United Link

[Neiler]

The interest Utd have in Baines isnt as strong as many/media suggest. Why would it be really, they have Evra, a very competent LB, Captain etc. His and Evra age is also a factor - in terms of longevity. Back up left back isnt as a priority for them, given they have much bigger gaping holes in their first team especially not at the price we're looking to buissness at. Yeah they like him but more negs then positives for them.

So you have watched those 5 players more than 10 to 12 times this season?

You must watch alot of football

I have games on in the background quite often in the house.

Baines won't force a move, he's not the type. If Everton reject the bid, he'll stay.

Problem is, Everton won't reject the bid.

This^^^ if the number is big enough

Think it's City we need to worry about really.

I agree. I'm actually more worried about City than United. Can't see Baines leaving the northwest, and those are the only two that could afford him and that he would move to.

You just dont see it do you? Why would I have an agenda? I want Baines to stay 100% but its as good as done in my book Why did he not just say "I love Eveton and do not want to leave"? HES GONE LAD

I'm cynical as well and you're probably right BUT Heits and Felli have said worse in past years and haven't left.

 

[toffeechris]

think he stays to be honest left back isnt utds problem centre back creative midfielder and another stiker is their top targets i would say!

 

[DanEFC92]

I think he'll stay, they'll go after youth if anything and won't blow x amount of money on a lb in his late 20's that isn't guarenteed to be in the starting lineup.

12 million according to the MEN, getting more interest in the media now.

 

[manxtoffee]

Don't be getting worked up over the rumours, as atm that is all they are. FWIW, no news is good news.

 

[nigelcoyb]

Didn't Utd pay 15 million for Phil Jones?

Anything less than 30 mil is chicken feed to the merchandising machine that used to be a football club called Manchester United.

Squad players for them.

 

[chicoazul]

We should sell him straight away.
