Cannot understand the logic behind buying a 28 year old left back when Evra is still playing well. Be better off looking for bring in Shaw from Southampton.
I don’t think Baines is stunning or anything but I think United have a weakness at left back and he’d be an improvement. They do seem to have recognised their needs in central midfield, but other than the interest in Fabregas and Thiago they’ve done nothing creative about it.
Think he was injured a lot last season, I certainly thought Newcastle missed him big time when he was out. If he was available for anything like £10m (which I suspect he isn’t), then I’d love to see United in for him.
Pat Nevin was speculating that Juan Mata may go the opposite direction as part of the possible transfer of Wayne Rooney from Manchester United to Chelsea.
That would be a superb deal for Manchester United if it happened, in my view, and I’d imagine he’d slot straight into the number 7 shirt made famous by Michael Owen.

Is that based on anything other than what Pat Nevin thinks?
I would be very surprised if Mourinho let Mata go.

The speculation is based on “informed West London sources”, says Pat, the reasoning being that Mata does not fit into the all-out pace and power game that Mourinho wants as he slows things down too much.
I don’t watch much Barclays Premier League™ football apart from Liverpool matches so I wouldn’t really know if that’s true or not.
