Midfielder Darron Gibson's move from Manchester United to Sunderland has broken down over the Republic of Ireland international's wage demands.

Found it on BBc Gossip page

Darron Gibson's £3million move from Manchester United to Sunderland has finally broken down.
Sunderland manager Steve Bruce is refusing to budge on Gibson's demands for £40,000 a week and is happy with his summer purchases after Blackpool's David Vaughan became his ninth signing last week.

Bruce hopes to off-load Steed Malbranque to QPR this week and West Ham want to re-sign George McCartney, 30, who has not made a first-team appearance for Sunderland since February 2010.
He spent most of last season on loan at Leeds United. Birmingham are also interested.

Good news, methinks, although how far you rely on the Daily Fail is another matter. With Brown and O'Shea we knew that they had quality and the debate was about how much they had left. Gibson's only young and has never shown that much yet, so if Fergie's letting him go you wonder how much he ever had. Now we can focus on signing Pavel Pogrebnyak :)
 
Not to sure what to make with Gibson

I would imagine if Gibson signs either one of the current central midfielders move on or Vaughan gets shoved to left midfield

personally if I was Brucie I would drop the interest in Gibson leave Vaughan competing for a central spot and bring in a proper winger for the left
 
This one is dead and buried, thank god. Not cos he's a bad player but because we don't need him now, and he's a greedy little twat.
 
Everything is going mad lately. Transfer fees and wage demands. Not sure why this season just gone has been such a weird turning point.
