    Man U have so far conceded 3 this afternoon. Their defence is crap and Sir Alex may come sniffing for Shawcross or Begovic. Is anyone worried that either could be tempted into moving? It would be a major blow IMO as our defence has been excellent this season.

    I've just read that De Gea is going to Real Madrid so yeah I think he could defo come sniffing -

    Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea is again on the radar of Real Madrid.

    De Gea switched agents to Jorge Mendes earlier this month and El Confidencial says the Spaniard has been assured he will be offered to Real.

    With Iker Casillas being axed by Real coach Jose Mourinho, who is also represented by Menses, on Saturday, speculation has intensified that De Gea will arrive in the summer as the captain's replacement.

    De Gea has only just returned to the starting XI at United, but has seen Sunderland keeper Simon Mignolet and Stoke City's Asmir Begovic linked with his job in recent weeks.

    I think that Begovic will definately be going, Shawcross will stay with us I think. Personally I would have offered Freidal (spelling) from Spurs a contract if I thought that big clubs were coming in for Begovic, Freidal is one of the most consistent goalkeepers that the prem has ever seen IMO.

    I am a bit worried that Begovic could be tempted (who wouldn't be?) but Sunderland have kept 2 clean sheets in the last 2 games so let's hope SAF goes for Mignolet!!

    Very worried about Begovic and a little concerned about both Huth and Shawx although I can't see any of them going in Jan! More likely the Summer.

    Whils it's quite possible they could come in for Begovic or Shawcross, I find it hard t believe Real Madrid want to buy De Gea, he's a bit rubbish.

    Really hope none of them go, but especially not Huth or Shawcross they work so well together.

    Er NO lads we just beat Liverpool, what's to worry about? If not for Reina's great save?? that let them have Pepe instead.
