Only time will tell whether United will be priced out
of a major signing this summer, but as others have
said, mercenaries are no use, as are 'big name'
signings unless they really want to play for us and
not just pick up a salary. 

Unfortunately in this imperfect world virtually anyone
United get an interest in is 'leaked' to the media,
but an example of a major signing who wasn't, was
the guy who scored a rather insignificant goal in
some meaningless match in Barcelona a few years ago...

As for your comment about last summer, the season
was not exactly an abject failure was it even though
not all transfer targets were nailed down? (-;
