The rumours linking Nemanja Vidic with a move to Spain were so frequent last season, with his agent umming and aahing over whether his client wanted a move to Real Madrid or not, left most United fans assuming it was a done deal. Whilst Vida repeatedly claimed he had no intention of leaving and that he wanted to see out his contract, with just a couple of years left of his current deal it appeared as though the club would accept an offer rather than wait for him to run out his deal.

Another week of former SKC Wizards update here. First of all some news on two of the newest former SKC Wizards. Second round draft pick, JT Murray was waived shortly after the team's first preseason game. He's landed on his feet as he's been picked up by the Rapids for their preseason.

The Anfield legend was installed as the new Liverpool manager until the end of the season at the weekend.
In his first game in charge on Sunday, Liverpool lost to Manchester United in the third round of the FA Cup, thanks to a controversial first minute penalty by Ryan Giggs.
