    Manchester United have failed in their latest attempt to sign Southampton forward Sadio Mane, the Daily Mirror reports.
    Saints are understood to have rejected a bid for the Senegal international.

    But far more positive: :emoticon-0136-giggl

    It all ended a little acrimoniously back in 2014, but former manager David Moyes said he would be open to a return to Manchester United in the future.
    Speaking on the Clare Balding Show, Moyes said he "wouldn't have done anything differently" during his time at Old Trafford.

    Obvious Saints will not sell him in January.

    He's definitely off in the summer and reportedly won't even discuss extending his contract with Saints. Very talented player and quite similar to Bolasie, he does however dive constantly and refs have seemed to cop it.

    I'm not convinced about Mane.

    I am however convinced that no one should take anything written in The Daly Mirror seriously.

    Any alleged newspaper with a red top banner is to be treated on par with The Beano.

    I agree, he was terrible until this season.

    Was he?

    I thought he looked good last season as well and he scored 10 league goals...

    May have been before that then, there was apoint where I though he was a joke of a player dribbling around aimlessly but 10 goals is good. He's certainly improved.

    Mane's a very dangerous player, but his attitude's suspect.
    His diving and fouling make him a very good fit for a place in the Old Trafford dressing room. <ok>

    Terrible, really ? 10 league goals for a wide player in his first season in England is terrible ? Goals against Chelsea ( when theyused to defend ) and Arsenal too.

    I'm sure it was Mane? Did he used to run around like a tit not knowing what to do with the ball and losing possession? He may well have improved at some point but that is what I watched on a few occasions.
