Young, incredibly quick and not expensive. Good business, imo.

I would imagine it means no Sancho this summer if there was ever a chance. Hopefully he does well and develops here and isn’t just another Nick Powel
Isnt James a left winger?
Yeah no real downside to this deal. If he fails it doesn't matter.
According to David May, Ryan Giggs thinks he's the fastest player he's ever seen.
Also nice to see the 'Welsh Xavi' rating him highly.

Come on in mate. I have to say, question marks over his top level potential, is he just a speed merchant? etc. aside, I'm really happy that the first signing we've made under Ole is a young hungry player who you'd imagine is ready to work his balls off to improve.
I genuinely think he can't be far off. Only Adama Traore, Mbappe or Bale can I think of that blasts past people and leaves them dead in both acceleration and top speed.
He can’t be as bad as what we have already so where’s the risk?
Every UTD fan this morning .

His stats in the 2018/19 season.

Plays both sides from what I’ve seen and if the plan is he’s just back up to Martial seems a bit of a waste with what we have in youth and that old timer still sitting on the bench collecting his millions.
SSN saying 15m+3m in addons.
His odds have been removed from every betting site I can find so this sounds legit.
Nice

Yesss! @redshaw 
Good sensible signing. Great price, great potential. Will be interesting to see how we use him.
Once Craig Norwood gets involved, it's done. Get in!
MEDICAL! Get the feck in!
Whoever it is!
Whoever it is!
That's a great price for a talented and homegrown youngster these days. Happy with this deal.
Brexit United well and truly underway
In all seriousness, I’ve said before that this is exactly the sort of signing we should be making, and now it seems it will be at a reasonable price.

Get in!
The first of many hopefully

Finally our first signing. Welcome Hames, we know that you're better than Wilfried Zaha 2013.
Who's next.
Who's next.
Without wanting to put unnecessary expectations on him, I think it's a fair expectation that he should become our best ever Welsh winger.
So Joe Allen thinks the day he got destroyed by James was the day he sealed his move to United?
Tier one!!
I think that’s fair.
Based on that two minute YouTube clip of his best moments in his career so far I don't think it's an overreaction to say he's going to be unbelievable.
The type of signing Ole can attract to the club
This video is his performance against Bolton. He displays good dribbling in tight spaces to weave his way through, with the ball fully under control.
He also displays good awareness to link up with team mates in a give and go situation. Movement looks very promising and his passing looks good too. One pass that he makes with the outside of his right boot is delightful.

Even better news is that he's English born.
James is obviously signed as a long-term option not that we will get Sancho but I think we will get someone further along in their development for the right wing
Should loan him straight back out really, he can't be close to being ready to play for us all considering.
Someone got out of the wrong side of bed this morning.
A stones throw from me, Beverley same as Paul Robinson.Even better news is that he's English born.
Same goes for posters like you and the caf mate but we're all going through a hard time, such is life.
