We signed Rooney on the last day in 04, so I think we'll get Berba in the end.

Would it be great if Berbatov came? Absolutely.
Would it be a complete disaster if he didn't? No.
The squad has aleady been given more depth than the double winning side last year.
A fit Foster to contend for the no1 or 2nd choice keeper. Evans as cover for centre backs. Neville to push brown for RB The Da Silva twins for full backs/ wingers. Rodrigo for centre mid (who I am very impressed with so far) Campbell and Manucho(I think he has his permit, working on fitness now.

www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/aug29s.htm'Jeremy Menez reveals he turned down interest from Manchester United to join Roma. “The Giallorossi play the best football in Italy and I’m here to win.” The 21-year-old French sensation completed his £8.5m move from Monaco this week and held his presentation Press conference, unveiling shirt Number 24. “It is a great pleasure to play for this squad with such wonderful players. I am very happy. I watched Roma on television in France and they play the best football in Italy. I can only get better by being here. “There was contact with other clubs, particularly Manchester United, but Roma were the side that wanted me the most. I am here to play and win, hopefully starting from Sunday.” Considering Francesco Totti’s injury setback, it is possible Menez will be given his Serie A debut against Napoli at the Stadio Olimpico this weekend. The youngest ever player to both sign a professional Ligue 1 contract and score a hat-trick in that division, Menez has been compared to both Zinedine Zidane and Antonio Cassano. “I don’t like comparisons, as each player is different and I have it all to prove. I can say Zidane was my idol growing up, as he was for most French kids, and he too played in Serie A. This is the real testing ground. “There are such passionate fans in Italy and I hope to find a place in their hearts. I intend to be here for a very long time.”'

I'm surprised he picked Roma considering we beat you 5-0 and look how we're doing at the moment.

It's just the manditory 'I turned down Man United'. The amount of times I've heard that lately. The players are loyal? And they aren't at United? He could play with Totti or he could play with Rooney, Ronaldo, Tevez, Scholes, Giggs etc. I think the truth is we didn't really want him and he wouldn't get in the team. Saying that from what I have seen he's going to be very good. Oh, I almost forgot. Are you implying that United don't play some of 'the best football in Europe'

Considering that was a shitty friendly with half our team not playing, which we really didnt care about... and we just played inter in the super cup and they won on pens after it going 2 - 2... and looking at spur's and roma's squads, im sure he'd think think Roma's would do better.

Are you implying that United don't play some of 'the best football in Europe' Players like Totti, De Rossi, Mexes have at one point all been wanted by 'bigger' clubs by have picked roma becuase they love the club, totally different with United since they are a 'big' club and always have been. Im sure he'd rather play with Totti.. and really why would he want to play with Tevez, Rooney and Ronaldo not really legends are they? And i was meaning best looking football, I think that honors go to Arsenal and Roma.

Giggs was wanted by Milan, and I would be very surprised if there were no big offers made for Scholes Keane etc. Best looking football- Roma and Arsenal? Without involving Man Utd as I would be bias towards, Arsenal are great to watch, but give me Barca over Roma any day
