Manchester United are ready to make Everton a £10 million offer for young midfielder Jack Rodwell, with Michael Carrick also included in the deal, according to a report from The Sun.

Rodwell has been wih the Goodison Park outfit since he was seven and the Toffees are understood to be very relcutant to part with such a fine player.

But United have decided to move for the 19-year-old now, according to the report, rather than waiting for a year until Rodwell has another season under his belt.

The Red Devils apparently fear that waiting 12 months could see the midfielder's price tag soar in value, and could move before the transfer deadline passes on Tuesday.

Seems we do in fact agree on quite alot!!!... I must give it to Man City though since the take over they have splashed alot of $$$ on players and really they have spent a fair bit on english players also....with having the likes of

Milner
Barry
A.Johnson
Lescott
Richards
Hart
etc

they really do seem to hold the spine of the national team in there squad. Well the spine of the future squads anyway once the likes of Lamps Gerro Terry and Rio retire anyway.

Lets hope more rules are bought it to support and nurture local talent.. Adam Johnson is just an example of the sort of Gems you can find inside England.... Struggled to get a run at Middlesborough in the championship and less that 18months later he is playing for the three lions and scoring a goal!!!!
