Eds if benzema did become available, could you see united beating arsenal to signing him as they are lacking firepower upfront?

{Ed001's Note - I would expect that they would be in the best place to make a deal with Madrid, due to the De Gea situation, but it would come down to where Benzema wanted to go in large part.}

My argument for this (wether it's correct or not being a different matter) is if you're going to work somewhere and you know someone who's worked there, you asked them what it was like!

I can't imagine Di Maria will have many good things to say to Benzema about Utd.
'The manager's a dictator, they don't actually have any fans from Manchester, etc etc'

I'm pretty sure Mesut would have nothing but positive words on us!
Look how much support he gets from fans, whenever rivals/media get on his back!

I dare say Utd would be interested, but we've got Özil, a known friend and we've got the Wenger factor!

If we accept that De Gea and wages will give utd buying power and there's every chance he will go there if he becomes available anything different is a bonus.
I just think so many Arsenal fans have convinced themselves he is coming they will feel betrayed if he joined utd without any justification for feeling that way.
I hope he joins us but don't expect him to.

Oh no I don't expect him to come really , as I've said before in one my earlier posts I don't expect him at Arsenal come deadline day. But thank you ed the de gea situation would certainly come in handy for United but I guess if they respect Benzema they will let him choose where he wants to go.

I think we will sign cavani maybe on a year loan with option to buy next year just don't see Benz coming this year
