FACT

Manchester United target Bastian Schweinsteiger as Ronaldo replacement

Despite putting on a brave face in their high-stakes battle to keep Cristiano Ronaldo at Old Trafford, Manchester United are making a contingency plan in the burly form of Germany and Bayern Munich winger Bastian Schweinsteiger.

Sir Alex Ferguson is preparing a £12 million bid for the German in the event that Ronaldo leaves the club to join Real Madrid, according to Sunday newspaper reports.

News of Manchester United's interest will disappoint Chelsea with the West London club also preparing a bid for the 23-year-old who is in the last year of his contract with Bayern and has attracted considerable attention from Premier League clubs after stating his interest in moving to England.

"England does have a good appeal, as it is one of the world’s best leagues and I have heard all about it from Michael (Ballack), Jens Lehmann and Thomas Hitzlsperger who have all played there," Schweinsteiger said. "I’ve always wanted to play there and we’ll see if it happens this year."

The tempermental midfielder, sent off in Germany's first game at the European Championships against Poland but likely to start against Spain in the final, will discuss his club future in the coming days.

Schweinsteiger has apparently already discussed the situation with Bayern’s new manager Jurgen Klinsmann, the former Germany coach and Spurs forward.

"I may stay with Bayern but the coach has promised to be supportive of whatever decision I make," Schweinsteiger said.

Owen Hargreaves. Have you seen the way he takes a penalty, deffiantly German.

He's a Teutonic version of Park.

SS = Weisswurst
JSP = Hot Dogs

SS = Career ahead of him
JSP = Korea behind him

No, is that a bad thing?

Abso-blooming-lutely not!

United is a team - we have enough flair still without the Portuguese Voldemort. Nani, Tevez, Rooney, Saha.:shakehead:........

Anyway, get rid of CR and replace with SS. It'll be worth it in the end.
