da prosport bet: It was a quiet Deadline Day at the top end of the Premier League and particularly at Manchester United, who didn’t partake in any incomings or outgoings as the January transfer window drew to a close.
da spicy bet: But one rumour did create a bit of excitement around Old Trafford yesterday morning, as The Sun reported on a potential shock last-minute move for Everton right-back Seamus Coleman.

The Irish international quickly put speculation to bed but he’s been linked with the Red Devils for such a long time that there must be some truth in the gossip somewhere down the line.
“I haven’t heard about the story. I am preparing for a game on Wednesday and that is all I am concentrating on.”
And although Antonio Valencia’s enjoying a strong campaign, whether he’s got what it takes to be United’s long-term No.2 remains open to debate. He’s not a natural defender and will turn 32 by the start of next season.
With that in mind, we asked United fans yesterday whether they’d support a summer swoop for Coleman and according to the results of our exclusive poll, a slim majority of 63% would welcome the potential move.
Will Jose Mourinho follow up in the summer? We’ll have to wait and see.
