He's a better goal threat from the left but we have Rashford for that. He would bring us many different qualities to the right side that we just don't have at the moment.
Umm Im not sure you have watched him. He absolutely can go on the outside. He is no where a cut in merchant like Rashford for example.
All inside forwards cut in. They dont go outside because theyre not wingers
Didn't know cut in merchant was a thing tbh.
He does everything so of course he can. But he isn't like rashford who 9/10 looks to cut in. He beats full backs very regualrly on the outside.
Rashford is no cut in merchant. He has the ability to go either way, if he played on the right he would go on the outside too. The reason our players cut in is because we dont have a target man to cross to so we have to play our way into the box.
Me too but I'm going to go for it and grow my hair into a man bun.
We saw rashford play right many times he cannot play there and very rarely went by his full back on the outside.
How many times has he played on the right? Not very many.
He played right wing many times in his first couple seasons. We had the whole issue that neither him or martial could actually play right wing. Both were barely half as good in that position mainly because both are strikers converted to wingers so always want to cut in and werent confident going on the outside. Whereas sancho is an actual winger not a converted one.
What a nonsense.
Sounds like a nothing article. One throwaway line with nothing to back it up before then saying Utd are still front runners and would have got him already under normal circumstances.
Coming from Gabrielle Marcotti who knows nothing.

Would you play Hazard on the right and do you think he'd reach the same standard on the right as playing off the left.
Every attacker has to be a good goal threat if we intend on building a great attack. As i said, you don't sign a player for 9 figures if you don't intend on getting the best out of him.
That could have been a post in this thread. That's probably where they got it from, somebody's post online.
There’s nothing in this article. Not even a ‘sources have told us’, just someone’s opinion based on what Woodward said a week ago.
I dont share your enthusiasm that it's happening. In the current climate, and considering the club still has massive debt to pay off, I just don't see it happening.
My enthusiasm has little to do with the fact the article you linked to had nothing to say that hasn’t been said in this thread.
If I was a betting man, I'd bet he's not coming. And this article only increases my suspicions that it ain't happening
So you think next season will be another season we don't own a right winger or someone who can play there to a top six level?
Playing Grealish as a right wing forward could be an option.
In theory, but that doesn’t take the detail into consideration. The entire global economy is what it is now, and I can’t imagine transfers will not be done differently for a while. Payment structures, bonus structures, loans with obligations like Mbappé.
Well I hope you are wrong because if we need to sell our best player to buy our first proper RW in like 8 seasons then we are going nowhere fast.
There will be a few surprises over the summer no doubt. Pogba could absolutely end up staying not because he wants to, but because nobody can afford him.
First paragraph of the article says he “might” not come. Pure speculation.
I agree it's pure speculation on his part. And when you start throwing in words like 'might' then it's clear that the journo is throwing jabs into the dark.
Exactly. I'm not sure the board even know yet if they can afford the deal. They are probably waiting to see if the league resumes, and then calculate how much extra income that will bring in, before making a final decision.
