Speculation has been rife over who will arrive at Manchester United this summer after Louis van Gaal suggested the club were in negotiations with a 'mystery' striker.

Following the departure of Robin van Persie and the decision not to make Radamel Falcao's loan move permanent, United have been expected to bolster their front line.

A host of names have been linked with a switch to Old Trafford, but last week Van Gaal suggested the media were off the scent on who it would be.

"He [the 'surprise'] is in the process," said the Dutchman. "It's not the striker the media has written about. You have to wait and see."

Could the 'mystery' man be Romelu Lukaku?

Romelu Lukaku celebrates for Everton



Memphis Depay has posted a cryptic message on Instagram that has sent the rumour mill spinning out of control.

The young Netherlands international has posted a picture of himself with the Everton and Belgium striker from their summer holiday together along with a cryptic message which reads: "See you soon".



With Manchester United and Everton not meeting until mid-October and their international sides not scheduled to play it's been suggested Depay is referring to Lukaku joining him at Old Trafford.

im not worried about this because of kones pre-season form

Just seen Norwich have agreed a fee with Hull for Robbie Brady. 7 million, will take Norwich above us in the spending table, only West Brom have spent less .

That's what was said, who writes this stuff!?

I'd have guessed hello magazine but it's actually the Independent.

So that is Stones, McCarthy, Mirallas and Lukaku all going then.

Going to be fun in the championship. Or we can just ignore all the crap and pray the next 5 weeks go quickly to get through to the end of the window.

Plus, if we loan that Arsenal youngster who has never scored a league goal in 26 apps we will be ready to mount a top 4 challenge this year

Nowhere near the five worst. He had some bad games when he was unfit, but he was actually decent on the ball and in the air and covered injuries alright at times. Positionally suspect but nowhere near Nyarko level.

Alcaraz was a terrible defender mate. Im sorry but he was. We had quiet defensive games when he got made to look half decent but you are talking about the defender who gets injured simply by being on the pitch! He was a bad defender, no doubt on that, we were just his last big pay cheque before he settles into quiet retirement back home again or something.

I may not be asking the right person here BUT......

Would you even want robbie brady? lol

Shaqiri is off to Schalke, Afellay is off to Stoke... That's the wing options gone.

If Afellay really was an option for our wing, than thanks god for Stoke City.
