Rumours are rife that out of favour Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard could be on his way to Manchester United.

Alex Ferguson has been quick to rule out a move for the Chelsea man, but we all know Ferguson doesn’t always tell the truth on transfer matters.

In many ways, a move to United makes a lot of sense – midfield is an area where they definitely need to strengthen and a few goals wouldn’t go amiss either. Lampard doesn’t seem to be in Andre Villas-Boas’s plans for Chelsea and there is speculation that the two don’t get on. Could Villas-Boas be planning on selling the England midfielder in an attempt to stamp his authority in the Chelsea camp?
