Gareth Bale's hair looks ridiculous

Milan are still interested in signing Lavezzi... They better get rid of Balo ASAP I guess.

Well, it seems Chelsea is now not getting Tiago and he doesn't have a team to play in next season...

He'll definitely find another team... I guess not as big as Chelsea but still.

Some great friendlies yesterday... I'm exited about Van Gaal's United.

[Mr Evil]

Who does everyone support on here?

[SajN]

He might not play El Clasico as his first because he can't train with his teammates untill his ban is lifted, so he won't have the experience to play in a team with them

Van Gaal: 'Wait and see on Strootman'
Manchester United face Roma tonight and Louis Van Gaal will “wait and see” on target Kevin Strootman’s fitness.
The two clubs go head-to-head in Denver this evening for the Guinness International Champions Cup.
Despite Rudi Garcia making it crystal clear “Strootman is a Roma player and he’ll stay with us this season,” Van Gaal remains entirely open about wanting the Dutch midfielder.
“Strootman I can judge, but he is injured for more than six months,” said the former Netherlands Coach in a Press conference.
“We have to wait and see how he comes back. It is not easy to say how he comes back from injury, but we will wait and see.”
Strootman had snubbed Manchester United to join Roma from PSV Eindhoven last summer for £17m, but links with the club intensified after Van Gaal took over.

On another note Milan & Juve swapping coaches would be something else...

Galliani hints at Milan-Conte deal
Adriano Galliani was asked about rumours Antonio Conte had a deal with Milan in May. “I plead the Fifth.”
The reports emerged after Conte suddenly terminated his contract with Juventus by mutual consent, making way for Massimiliano Allegri.
Conte’s friend told radio he had already agreed terms with the Rossoneri in May, but was talked into renewing his Juve contract.
“Is it true that before Pippo Inzaghi I wanted to bring Conte to Milan? I plead the Fifth,” replied Galliani when asked about this story.
The right to remain silent is not the answer La Gazzetta dello Sport was expecting, which adds further fuel to the fire of this rumour.
Meanwhile, Galliani also joked about Milan’s 3-0 defeat to Olympiacos in the Guinness International Champions Cup.
“It is still early days and other teams lost to amateur sides.”
This was a snipe at Allegri’s Juventus, who were defeated 3-2 by Lucento on Friday.

The whole training part is quite hilarious tbh...

And it's even more hilarious how people think he's not training.

He is, but not with the team.

Berbatov's been on fire in the pre season games...

Strootman was available for a measly 16M pounds last season. Moyes is dumb.
