If We get Sancho, the improvement will be very noticeable.
Our right hand side is so basic. Not necessarily shite but very predictable. Wan Bissaka attacks by running into an empty space (which He does rarely) and Dan James does exactly that.You wouldn't trust them to beat fullbacks through dribbling. Once the opponent sits deep They can do nothing and during occasions where They managed to get near the penalty box, their crosses aren't accurate enough to make any difference. Dan James could have crossed the ball to Rashford at least twice in the first 20 mins. Yet He failed. The first where He didn't even notice Rashford, and the second one He overhit it.

Please Ed, I'm begging you.

I have no doubt he is an upgrade on James and we shouldn't use this as our expectations when bringing in a right sided specialist

I'm aware that Ole will expect more from his fullbacks going forward however he also needs players to give the team balance when it comes to defending which I feel it's a big ask of Pogba.

If you look at the Liverpools team their midfield consists of many runners with much greater defensive disciplines and I have my doubts how we can achieve this by playing both Bruno and Pogba in the same team and also pushing our full backs high up in the pitch. It's not realistic imo...
Out of interest, what is your answer for our RW? An inverted winger clogs up the centre even more and is more reliant on an overlapping RW. I'd say with the threat across the pitch, Rashford, Pogba, Bruno and hopefully Sancho, if opposition try to double team anyone of them, as long as we move the ball quickly, we should be okay.

Thanks for replying guy's and confirming next week is last week for Bundesliga. I just thought all games played same time, so was last.

But should be a good game today. Will be good to see Jadon against Leipzig.

Imagine if we pulled the trigger on a right winger last year and signed Pepe for £70-80m..

a future front 3 of Rashford, Greenwood and Sancho sounds like a potential world class trio in 2-3 years, lets get it done.

It says ‘liked by Jadon Sancho’ - not his handle. There are probably hundreds of sad men on Twitter who have changed their name to Jadon Sancho.

It's already confirmed it's him. It's a tailored tweet notification so he only gets notifications from certain people. Sancho in this case. The guy runs the Utdreport twitter account.
Well then...

This and the sipping of the water. Do we reckon number 7 shirt?

James on loan to villa with grealish and sancho in would be a smart move.

Add a brilliant centre back and we are nearly there.

I just wish pogba can learn to be positionally disciplined when we play the top teams on the counter which has been so successful for ole.

Conspiracy theory time, he’s agreed terms with United but the clubs haven’t agreed a fee and it’s his small way of putting pressure on the club.

Only a matter of when now, but should be in the bag during July. So he gets here soon enough to be ready for the new season.

After BVB scored there injury time goal today, you can see Jadon very subdued. Other players were running after Haaland but Jadon didn't. Not like him.

When does our transfer window open and close? August till October?

This looks as good as on to the part now it’s going to be absolutely gutting if we don’t get him. Seems like the only thing left to do now is agree a fee with Dortmund.

I don't believe anyone knows when the transfer window will open, don't think it's been announced yet
