That was my exact reaction as well.Mhmmm.
That was my reaction.
A little surprised - but like you I hope he can deliver, he needs to make an impact this season. I’d much rather he has minutes than Fred - hopefully the investment in the Academy pays off.Tweet

Thats a statement of faith in him. Hopefully he can deliver.
Maybe the club treats these as new signings.Why do we hear of yet another contract renewal being worked on during a vital transfer window?
You think we shouldn't? Let everyone walk on a free, that'll teach 'em.We sure do like extending contracts don't we.
No. He won’t be on a big wage (relative of course). This is the sort of contract renewal that does make sense, if he doesn’t make it this year, he’s the right age profile that we can sell him.This is another Rojo contract where we'll spend the next 3 summers trying to shift a player because we were too concerned about 'preserving their value' to just let them go.
Some players take time to develop. If he becomes a first team player at 23/24/25 so what?Tweet

23 years old is considered a youngster now ? It's like another case of Lingard.
I swear I read the same comments on Lingard previously it's a deja vu.Some players take time to develop. If he becomes a first team player at 23/24/25 so what?
IIRC he did, during Caretaker Ole months -> it was so bad of a performance. Exposed defensively, no defensive sense and he couldn't dictate and control things.Has he played as a holding midfielder since his great performance against Leicester at the start of last season?
