da blaze casino: Manchester United head in to this weekend on the back of three straight defeats ahead of their trip to Crystal Palace on Saturday evening.
da bet vitoria: Having enjoyed a terrific run of form, which included crucial wins over Tottenham, Liverpool and Manchester City, the Red Devils were brought back down to Earth with defeats at Chelsea and Everton before last weekend’s surprise home defeat to West Bromwich Albion.
Although they should still be able to secure Champions League qualification, a run of three games without a goal is certainly a worry for Louis van Gaal, and has once again highlighted the need for money to be spent for both goal-scorers and creative options.
The club have already signalled their intent to get business done early by announcing a deal has been agreed for Dutch star Memphis Depay, and there may well be more to come.
One man who continues to be linked with a move to Old Trafford is Real Madrid ace Gareth Bale.
Football’s most expensive signing has endured an indifferent campaign, and some out of sorts performances have led to plenty of criticism over in Spain. He looks the shadow of the player that performed so well at Spurs as well as Wales in their recent European Championship qualifiers, and could prove a realistic target should this continue.

Madrid themselves have been strongly linked with a move for United goalkeeper David de Gea, and he is another with strong question marks over his future with the club still waiting to tie him down to a new contract.
Reports this week suggested the pair could be involved in some sort of swap deal, and it’s something United should seriously consider.
There’s no doubting De Gea’s importance to the team, and another superb season from the Spaniard has seen him perform heroics at times, and rightly earn a place in the PFA Team of the Year.
And although losing a player of his quality will be a disappointing, there are other goalkeepers out there who would be able to soften the blow and prove an adequate replacement, most notably Hugo Lloris of Tottenham.
If United can ensure they are able to replace De Gea with someone of similar stature like Lloris, they would still be left with a top class goalkeeper that can have a similar impact on their team.
And if by selling their current number one means they will be able to bring Bale back to the Premier League, it would certainly make an improvement to their attacking options.
Bale is without doubt the type of player that would make United serious title contenders. His goal threat means he has the ability to win games on his own, and could be the difference between winning and losing, and be responsible for a number of points over the course of the season.
If he’s not feeling loved at Madrid, that would certainly change were he to move to United, and they look like the perfect team to bring out the best in the attacker once more, and a side who would certainly give him the freedom to express himself.
United fans would be really frustrated at seeing De Gea leave the club, and the Red Devils should be doing all they can to retain one of the world’s best keepers. But if he has his heart set on leaving, then they have to ensure they can get the best deal possible, and should only consider listening to offers if Gareth Bale is involved.
And if there’s no chance of landing the Welshman, then that should put an end to negotiations once and for all.
