Yeah I can't see him leaving either, although not being able to play Champions League might give him the slimmest of doubts. But I think if he were to leave for any Premier League team, it would be Arsenal, cuz they have Ozil, Podolski, and Mertesacker. 

As for Laporte, he's very promising, he had a great year last year. He's a 20 year-old French center back who has also played left back on occassion. I dunno if he's good at left back though as I don't watch much La Liga either, and I don't know how he's doing this year so far, Bilbao as a team are struggling though. But I have a feeling that if he were to move (he does have a 27.5 million release clause), that Arsenal would probably be the preferred destination because Wenger likes his French players. 

Question I've been wanting to ask a United fan after watching the last game, how come they haven't tried Daley Blind at left back at all, with Fellaini as the holding mid, that might help their defense, no?
