United linked with Latics duo

Last updated : 17 April 2008 By Paul Farrington
Both players have been in form for the Latics since Steve Bruce's arrival in December and have played a big part in the club's rise up the table.

Manchester City and Tottenham have also been linked with the duo, but the rumours are likely to be found on little but fantasy with United'd midfield currently packed full of over priced imports from throughtout the footballing world.

More realistic is the prospect that Queiroz wanted to get an idea of how the Latics play should the Champions require three points on the final day of the season. This is now unlikely after the away point that Bruce's men earned on Monday evening at Stamford Bridge.
