We all love United
Nobody wants our Jesse except some flirting by West Ham. Guess his wages are too high or we simply want too much for him. Even Lookman above has suitors

Can't spell Mkhitaryan

Wages must be an issue as they have spent money on Zouma and the reported 25 mill bid for Nikola Vlasic

Ole said yesterday that Jesse is staying. Kind of makes sense since we have Bruno for the 10 and that’s it. We can’t even rest him without a reshuffle with all of the attacking options we have

VDB could play there, but can honestly see him being sold in January.

Pogba can play, Sancho can too going by his skillset.

Then you’re shifting players around again and even then Pogba hasn’t shown consistency as a 10.
Our squad has so much quality that resting players shouldn’t cause an upheaval. Look at it now, if we move Pogba as a 10 then Rashford is injured, Matic has to play so it’s old man Cavani on the left or an out of sorts Sancho?
What happens when Pogba has his annual 6 weeks injury?
I think we can chop fat off across the front line but I don’t want to see Mata start in midfield v Spurs away

Rashford is injured and we don't need to rest Bruno now. When the time comes, Rashford will be fully fit.

We can play McFred with Pogba, Rashford, Sancho, Greenwood, Ronaldo, Martial, Cavani (3 of them) as attackers.

Or we can play McFred with Sancho and others as attackers. Rashford will be back in a month and we don't need to rest anyone, season has just started.

But Bruno also delivers in flashes - it is not like he scores or assists every single game. Generally speaking, Pogba of course may play as an AM to give Bruno a rest - and it’s not a bad option to have.

Hopefully we get back what we paid. Good for him if he gets Leicester

Edit : not sure why I read it as Leicester. Leeds also good option but I think he could do better

It’s a long season, if Rashford comes back then someone else will end up injured, it’s how football goes. Even then it all falls down if Pogba gets hurt. It’s not as if Paul isn’t playing as much as Bruno. By resting Bruno you are overplaying Pogba. It just has to be someone who can give cover off the bench

You can rotate them and manage the game time.

Romano has also said Donny could still leave. My James, Donny and Lingard out with Rice coming in prediction still looking possible…
Could we make a straight swap of those three players for Rice?

We need to sell to raise funds. He will never reach the level required to be useful for us - he lacks basic ability. Technique, passing, decision making, shooting, ball control - he simply lacks basics.

Honestly, I have no idea why many people want to hold onto such an average player - just sell him and move forward.
The Ronaldo deal proves this isn’t the case Glazers just being money smart, I mean can’t go spending willy nilly. It’s frustrating but I can see the reasons why. But hopefully we’ll see movement before Tuesday. Or maybe the Ronaldo deal was an outlier. Either way it proves money is there Glazers just don’t want to spend
