If we have a chance to sign this young talent we would be foolish not to do so especially after the Bellingham situation. You can't pass up on kids like Camavinga who have shown that much promise at such a young age for a decent price tag. His value will double within the next 2-3 years just like Bellingham's will.

A sizeable chunk of the forum will agree re the rotation - completely aside from the kids aspect.
Any particular youngsters in mind who should have played more?
The Garner and Elanga bulking videos have had me wondering. Each by itself didn't seem like much, but together I'm wondering whether they might have been told to bulk up with perhaps a promise of being on the fringe/getting games.
Exactly, Greenwood was basically a starter with us, and next season he can compete for a spot even with Sancho around.

Wouldn't they have done this irrespective of our plans for them this season? It is probably a fairly routine part of getting them ready for men's football. I am sure it's all done in conjunction with the sports scientists.
It would seem weird that they suddenly chuck them in front of some dumbbells because Ole has said they may be good enough to be round the squad, everything should be planned better than that.
Particular phrase to note: "Each by itself didn't seem like much".
Yeah absolutely certain any CDM/CM is a complete no go until we have sold some players first

You know what he's alright that Romano bloke, in fact he might be the best source there is.
Oh man. This is turning into some summer for transfers
If we got him for around 30m Euros I'd piss directly into my own eyes. Too good to be true surely.
Wtf
I’ve never wanted him to be legit as much as I do now.
This thread was in desperate need of positive tweets, I’ll take it!
Just said that it’s not linked to the future of Pogba. In fact nothing is going on with Pogba as it stands.
well that went from €100m to €30m very fast.
I can't see him going for anymore than £35m. The more the days go by, the more the value will decrease IMO.
And Judas said to the rabble, if the young one comes here to me, for my thirty pieces of silver, I will climb that mountain and hang from it's highest ledge, and with this flaccid thing of mine will I urinate into mine own eyes and rejoice for there is rapture.
It’s possible. Seen him do it before!
Chooooo chooooo

A summer of Sancho, Varane, Camavinga 
It's Fifa level nonsense. We don't operate like this, and yet here I am, all aboard.

The talk of 100m euros was bollocks. He’s 18 years old with 1 year left on his deal.
big surprise!
would be an excellent addition and a proper footballer, not just a defensive blocker.

Proper footballer, I can get right behind this.
Perfect Fred replacement I think.
even if we don't get all of them (and there's still a very good chance we won't get any of them), it's very comforting that we seem to target the "right" players and the right positions this summer. Sancho made a lot of sense, Varane would be a no-brainer, Camavinga would make a ton of sense too. Trippier as well.
Yowza.
That's a pretty encouraging tweet.

To be fair, he may be on to something. I did that once in my teens when I was experiencing particularly chronic conjunctivitis symptoms. Tried all sorts of eye drops, which only offered temporary relief, so out of desperation, I decided to try the age old rumoured remedy. Worked a peach! Pain and itchiness went away instantly, and then the next morning all the redness had disappeared.
Apologies for taking the convo off course with that weird fact btw!
That's such a good deal if true.
I think people are forgetting how young he is.
Could be great in the future but don't expect him to come in and be the next Keane/Carrick/whoever.

He’s out of contact next year isn’t he?
I’m expecting a mix of Vieira and KDB.
yup, that's why the €100m price tag was always just going to be posturing. Just funny how quickly that dropped to €30m.
Agreed, but he would certainly offer a long term option instead of Fred
quite experienced for his age too. 67 Ligue 1 games plus 4 each in EL and CL ... that's pretty crazy for an 18 year old.
Fred isn't going anywhere.
I really do think the best thing to do with Pogba is risk losing him on a free.
Ok it might sound crazy and it might backfire but I just think we could try complete the rebuild this summer.
Get in a starting CB and CDM and then the team would be very very good.
I'd fancy our chances of Pogba wanting to stay.
The only way I'd sell Pogba this summer is if we signed a CDM and another top Midfielder
That won't happen so I say go BOLD and risk it.
Sadly
