Maybe Livermore wasn't overpriced after all, as I know who I'd rather have of the two but I don't think we'd be paying £9M for an understudy to Jake!
#AVFC and Hull are the two clubs leading chase for Tom Cleverley.Money on offer between £8-9m. #MUFC should snatch their hands off. #hcafc https://twitter.com/dwright75/status/505007974952480768

I'm no Cleverley hater (or lover for that matter) and never felt compelled to sign the online petition to keep him from the World Cup squad, but would take him if the money was right, by which I mean are we not now over-stretching the purse strings a bit? Might need to start thinking about balancing the books a bit. Not quite good enough for Man Utd, but would be good enough for us. Can't see it though and do we need him?
That was quick, which leads me to believe that our name was probably just chucked in there to flush out the Villa bid.
He's certainly no better than Jake, and £8-9m for someone who's out of contract in 12 months, no thanks!
He plays for England and we need a midfield larker. He isn't all that as a Manure starter, but he will do for us!
Man United have also just accepted a bid for Kagawa, they're not going to have any players left at this rate.
