Our midfield is in tatters, it can never be tempting when you put that into perspective

The. Sun. Is. Blacklisted.
Yeah, I think we probably need to forget the July 1st deadline now. If the club enforced that now it's be self destructive. We haven't replaced the players who've already left yet, .Never mind anything else.
Is this the guy Celtic was trying to strong arm into signing a contract?
People who would give Scott away have learned feck all then???
Not for me thanks.

Yeah, as far as I can read. Made a lot of Celtic fans look like mugs claiming they've signed him.
We need to price Darmian around £5 - 10m to make him an attractive option to these clubs. Wage wise he can't be on very much more than Bertrand
Only 29. Not a bad price for a Shaw back up.
I wouldn't put it past him. It's not like McTominay is some all around great midfielder. His passing isn't incisive, doesn't have vision, his technique isn't all that great. The kid has fight in him and has learned to play within his limitations to help the side out. Garner is someone who will fight. It's up to whether he can do everything outside of that, to replicate McTominay's production.
It's not going to happen though so I wouldn't worry.
Knowing us it's probably at least double. I'd guess it's one of the reasons we can't get rid.
He's shit though.
We already need 2 midfielders. If Pogba goes we need 3 and then back up. McTominay, Fred, and Garner would be the back up.Pereira and Matic should be used in deals,instead of McTominay.
We never get proper fee for a player we sell. Yeah I hope we keep McT
Five or six years younger than Ashley young.
Yeah and about the same level of quality.
I would be surprised if McTomminay was to depart.
United seem pretty intent in bringing the identity back within the club so for them to lose a good,solid pro with the potential to grow into a effective player would be a contradictory move,imo. Plus,we're not exactly strong in midfield at present.

That's for sure, we are far from strong in this area and need at least 2 top midfielders. If Pogba goes we will need 3.
Really, 1 goal and 1 assist last year in 27 games! Barely any shots or key passes. Gets dispossessed a couple of times a game. 1.3 bad control a game
He plays more as a DM and his tackling stats are not anything special...1.4 a game, 0.7 intercepts, 1.8 fouls
84.8% pass completion and 3.5 long balls a game. He is basically a crap Scholes in his later years.
To be fair, if there's one thing you need it's another right-footed forward that can play on the left or down the middle
Its Talk-Sport,so you can pretty much throw their opinions/views/rumours out of the window.
It was Andy Goldstein that said it and he's a massive WUM.
How old was TAA when he broke into the Liverpool team? He's only 20 now and already established as their first choice. I would have favoured an older option to transition Laird in. I honestly dont see him getting a chance to be our first choice right back now.
I believe Laird will be the better player eventually, he has a more completely skillset and plays with maturity beyond his years. That said, as with anyone injuries could curtail him. Ultimately we are desperate for a RB and this solves a big problem for us, the Laird point is the only potential downside I can think of to be honest.
If Laird becomes better than AWB, then AWB can be sold to accomodate him. As of yet, Laird is seen as not good enough. Up to him to grab his opportunity, same as Rashford, Lingard (sigh) and whoever else will show in training/ when they come on whether they are good enough
McTominay is bad and Laird is ready to be put straight into the starting eleven.
Redcafe never ceases to amaze with the absolutely insane, devoid of any common-sense, kind of people it attracts.

If the plan at the club is to buy young players with a view to building success over several seasons then I'm all for it.
Ideally we go out Bayern style and buy up the best young players from mid-table sides (yes mid-table just like us before anyone starts) and do this 2-3 players per summer for the next 5 years. Each time we identify our 2-3 weakest positions and target players for those.
I fear for those of you who are looking for United to be challenging next season and think that this can be achieved by signing 6-7 players now for 50-70 million each like Madrid are doing. With this model of spending on superstars there is expectation from day 1 to be winning things. We've seen that this almost never happens, especially in England. Even with huge spending like Chelsea and City did, it usually takes at least a season for the team to gel.
This is all just my opinion and if all you want to reply with is calling me an idiot then please don't bother. Been watching united for the best part of 37 years and I'm completely happy to wait if it means we end up with a team of players I can like again. Last season McTominay, Lindelof and Shaw were the only players who I didn't feel I wanted out of the club at some stage last season.

We already have Dalot to cover Shaw, and if we were to bring in a LB I'd hope it's an upgrade.
Liking the youth we've been linked with laterly. AWB,Brooks,Maddison,Lo Celso and Issa all good talents and all seemingly have the right attitude to succeed,going by the views on various clubs forums expressed over these players.
Hopefully United continue with this pursuit of bringing some youth,courage and and general identity back within the club because we sure as hell need it.

Said it yesterday, cash flow problems
Does the RedCafe twitter account look for the most outrage inducing, dumb and obviously bullshit news articles?
We were briefing that we have more than 250 million pounds to spend, at the beginning of the summer, I doubt that has changed in a month.

I feel this will go down real well on here...
I'm going to put my tin hat on and dig in for the bombardment

So around £330m to spend in total when Rom and Pogba leave.
