Stay away from Gianni Zuiverloon

West Bromwich Albion have warned Manchester United to stay away from Holland Under 21 international Gianni Zuiverloon. Reports suggested that Sir Alex Ferguson is interested in adding the young defender to his squad and WBA manager Tony Mowbray and captain Paul Robinson have both urged the versatile defensive player to avoid any advances after only joining the club this summer in a £3.2million move from Heerenveen.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is said to be keen on the 21-year-old, but Mowbray told Midlands newspaper the Express & Star: ‘I hope he realises he is a young player and we have given him an opportunity to come and play in the Premier League.

We have one or two players that other clubs ask me about, but selling is not the plan. The plan is to try to build a team, not to bring them in and sell them off quickly.

‘What is the point of bringing a player in and then selling him in a year?’

Zuiverloon has played only one five games with Baggies and showed that he could be one of the good defenders in the English premier league. But Gianni will face tough competition with other defenders in United.

Do you think United need Zuiverloon?

Carrick and Hargreaves to boost Manchester United squad

Manchester United squad will soon be boosted by the return of two important midfielders, Michael Carrick and Owen Hargreaves.The England duos are set to make their comebacks United Premiership game with West Bromwich Albion on 18th October. Carrick has missed the last six matches since breaking a bone in his foot against Liverpool a month ago.

The 27-year-old had only started one game before his Anfield sadness but manager Sir Alex Ferguson says he will almost surely be back on time to face the Baggies.

“We are expecting Michael to be available next week. He is almost back to full training now,” said the United boss.

Meanwhile, Owen’s frustrating long-term problem with knee tendonitis has improved.

He has fought the injury on and off ever since he arrived from Bayern Munich in the summer of 2007.

It struck him down again on the eve of the double winner’s pre-season tour of South Africa. Despite treatment and injections throughout last term, the problem returned during the close season and forced the 27-year-old to skip the tour.

His delayed return began with an appearance as sub against Liverpool and starts against Villarreal and Chelsea.

We hope the two players stay away from injuries.

Jaap Stam and Ferguson in United again!

Former Manchester United defender’s Jaap Stam has made a shock return to Manchester United as a talent scout. The former Holland defender’s relationship with Sir Alex Ferguson was critical when his candid 2001 autobiography carped the Fergie and some players like Roy Keane.

The centre back was sold to Lazio within weeks but the 36-year-old, who retired last year after ending his playing career at Ajax, is reported to be working as a scout for United.

Stam was spotted in Porto Alegre in Brazil this week to watch a youth-team match between Internacional and Ceramica. It is believed that United have been linked with Gremio’s Douglas Costa and Stam saw the creative midfielder put in a man-of-the-match performance in just his second start.

Costa has just signed a new contract with Gremio after turning 18, increasing his buy-out clause from £5million to £21m after reports also linked him to Real Madrid and Barcelona.
Dubbed the ‘new jewel of Brazilian football’ by Gremio president Paulo Odone, Costa is already impressing coaches and team-mates, scoring from 20 yards in Saturday’s 2-1 win against Botafogo.

Sir Alex Ferguson is pleased that he finally got some talents from Brazil, remember Kleberson’s nightmare, and he will be happy to add Costa to the long young Brazilian players list.

Welcome back Jaap!
