On the day dominated by hard and mad transfer activity the headlines will surely be no different. We might have found the odd news snippet outside Nani, Hargreaves and Anderson, but there isn’t much else other than these to write about.
We have discussed the transfer deals in detail here and here. Go ahead and read them for the detail.
For the low attention span people, here is the roundup of United’s news headlines for the day.

The BBC’s brought up this breaking news when I saw it confirming the expected.
Owen Hargreaves has confirmed his move to Old Trafford after having passed his medical and having agreed personal terms. He will arrive in July 1 and has to only sign the contract which is reported to be a five year deal.
Alright, finally! Now breathe easy.
Ed: Someone tell Ferguson that the transfer deadline is 31st August, not 31st May…

I just came back from an argument with my landlord. It was a problem with my apartment’s internet. As it happens, I was out of the loop for just a day and what a day it has been.
DAMN! So much has happened. And I thought the summer was going to be boring.
Well anyway, Nani - dubbed the next Ronaldo - and Anderson - dubbed the next Ronaldinho are coming to OT. So let’s see what this means to our team composition next season.

I’ve already written a bit about the Nani / Anderson moves on SL, but I thought I’d drop in here and add more to the story.

There are times when I wish I could literally throw a boot in Mr. Mourinho’s face if it would wipe the smirk off his face. Ah… the joy, the great serene satisfaction…I can almost taste it.
It has been more than a week since our narrow loss at the Wembley. Too bad, I’d have said, with a shrug and a sigh on any other day, but after brooding over that final for a week, I still can’t digest it.

Back to the roundup of the day where we go around feeding off scraps from newspapers and rags alike. Although we avoid the rags. (even though we secretly like some of them… you know, guilty pleasures)
Anyway, here are the some of the news stories of the day…

Apologize for the lack of activity the last day and a half from the promised third part of the season review series. Was busy apartment shifting. Anyway, now that I am well settled in my new abode with a coffee by the side and a laptop in front let me quickly get this review series done with once and for all.
Today we will take a look at our vast array of attacking talent that made the big difference to our season. We will take a look at our wingers, both the good and the bad ones, and our strikers. We will also dwell a bit on our team play, formations and players we may have skipped earlier.

Good morning people, depending on where you are. Another day to get by, but I assure you, there is at least one piece of news worth talking about for a United fan. Other than that there wouldn’t be much coming your way today.
So here we go with our daily round up…

While my superstitious self can now almost safely assume that Owen Hargreaves is indeed coming over to Old Trafford, some bookies have already gone to the extent of putting odds of him becoming the player of the season 2007/08 at 50/1.
The question however, is how he will feature in the team next season.
