With Van Gaal’s appointment, the Manchester United supporters can expect few Dutch players to arrive.
After a season to forget, top quality signings are desperately required at Old Trafford but the fans are still waiting.
Chelsea have already lure the likes of Fabregas and Costa (near) and still want more stars.
Liverpool have signed Rickie Lambert from Southampton, bright prospect Emre Can fro Leverkusen and are also reportedly linked with Bayern superstar Shaqiri.
Manchester City have signed Bacary Sagna while Manchester United are still waiting for the first big name to arrive.
One of the major problems United have to solve is the midfield dilemma and Van Gaal is ready bring Dutch stars for that position.
One Dutchman who has been in the limelight is Roma star Kevin Strootman. However, Now reports suggest that Van has told Manchester United to sign former Manchester City star Nigel De Jong to add steel to the lineup.
The experienced manager has turned to his compatriot to sort out the shaky midfield. As much as a creative one, United need an experienced holding mid player as well and De Jong fits the bill.
As per the provided link, AC Milan are ready to sell De Jong for a price of $10m. Surely that will be no problem for United as they have a huge transfer kitty this summer.
The 29 year old will be a decent addition to the squad but will the fans be happy with his arrival?

it will be good if ed will be axed
Bring him 00000000000000 we are tired 0f st0rys…..
I don’t any of these stories, too much stories without action.
I don’t believe any of these stories, too much stories without action.
Hmm.. That’s what we have said about Moyes, when he came to United at long last he pails to sign any top player.. So please Van Gaal try much and possible to bring us players like Kroos, Sanchez, Vidal, Alacantara, Miranda, and Diye..
For me ed ain’t simply good enough at luring players in as proved last summer when we did have champions league so what makes u think he Gona get players in this summer we will get players as soon as we axe ed Woodward da donut and got a clue we ain’t strong enough in the way we approach players we hav one target nd move on to next look at FABREGAS WE wanted him but Chelsea got him without Any hesitation so like I’m saying I can go on all day but I can do a better job than ed nd I will come a lot cheaper
why would you bring an old man if there are young players like luiz gustavo who can play better than him in that positon
We need better scouts, like Chelsea….remember we wasted time with Moura and Chelsea got Oscar who is way better. The other big problem is Ed Woodward. He is not a Peter Kenyon. In the days of Kenyon, we dorminated the transfer market, pushing hard bargains as we dorminated the English premiership. Those two go hand in hand. So down with the bluebloods and thier silly protocol, we need Chief Executives with proven love for Manchester United. Another miserable campaign this season might take us a decade to recover.
honestly wood ward is dull we nid a chief executive like david beckam or g nevile one of these can make things happen
Am tired of all this facke stories about man u transfer isures pls stop deciving us fan and move ahead to do someting better to inproved our beloved old traford. Or if u cnt den sell d club to some one who can makes us feel gr8t united fans pls (ED woodward)
De jong of all players wat d hell is wrong with all dis pple na, when d likes of willian carvalho, gustavo, matiuidi, strootman nd many others re out there playing out the game of their lives, we re here monitoring the d movement of de jong, wat a shame on us (united).
Ed woodwards fault? I dont think so, we are not the most attractive team in England anymore never mind europe! We need to start to use our kids and rebuild that way otherwise we will end up like leeds or chelsea and city full of foreigners who come for a wage packet.
buy shaw and maybe coleman and thats enough.
give powell a chance and the keane brothers.
and stop going on about who we haven’t signed.
if you are a proper red you will agree.
Nigel De Jong , Thomas Vermalen ,Wes Sneijder will be smart signings Van Gaal needs treid and tested players his worked with before to introduce his ideas and stable the sinking ship guys think long term we need top 4 finish next season and we don’t have champions league incentive to offer players????? !!!!
Defenders :Rafael Jones (Hummels) smalling (Vermalen) evans Evra (Shaw)
Midfielders : valencia mata kagawa fellaini Carrick cleverly (De Jong) (wes sneijder) januzaj welbeck
Forwards : persie rooney chicarito (alexis sanchez)
