    He's fallen behind Thiago, Kroos, Martinez and co in the pecking order .... Two years left on his contract.

    We sniffed round him before.... schweini and matic would be very strong rotating with Rambo and van ginkel too.

    Kroos would be perfect though if we wanted a regista type player alongside Matic.

    Don't understand why United fans don't rate him.

    Take both straight away, Kroos cost about 15m being in last year of contract and Schweinsteiger being 29 means he might cost around the 20m mark.

    Think Kroos is just angling for more money from Bayern.

    He's among the top five mids in Europe at,, £15m would be a bargain!

    How old is Kroos? Defo yes for me if there's a deal to be done but suspect it all to get a better deal at Bayern - why would you leave?!!

    Even more so if it stops United getting him!

    Kroos is 24. I'd snap him up in a heartbeat, absolutely brilliant footballer. Lamps will either be gone or playing a bit part at most next season and we need a replacement, Kroos fits the bill for me.

    There's an article on the BBC site with a few quotes

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/26514697

    What made me laugh was that when it was written, it had the title 'Toni Kroos open to Man United move' and not once did he mention the ****ers <laugh>. What's also funny, is that they believe they have a chance of getting him even without CL footy.

    I really really want Kroos but I know it is a long shot. Doubt it would ever happen. Just imagine Kroos, Luiz and Matic in the same midfield though...

    If modders is worth £40m Kroos is worth £60 (on a long contract)

    If Ozil is worth 43 million and if Lamela is worth 30 million, Kroos is worth.....1 hundred trillion dollars (Dr Evil little pinky to edge of mouth smiley not available)

    Can't see Kroos costing only 15mill. There will be a line up round the block of teams with the cash in hand. Think he's doing a "Rooney" in order to get a big wage increase.
    Schweinsteiger would be an excellent buy, experienced Ballack type, but we need someone a bit younger for the longer term. Can't see Lampard here next year, he's been lukewarm at best this season, the USA is likely. Would love him in Australia, he'd be good with our emerging players. Luiz is looking a shoe in for Barcelona if only to actually play.
    The search continues.
