Strange signing for another 'prospect' when our current left back situation is probably the least pressing concern with Shaw, Williams and Telles on our books. Also why are we paying more when they agreed to sell to Lyon for 2m less and no sell on clause?
we absolutely need a new LB as well as a RB. We have some of the worst full backs in the league. The guys you listed are all bums

and we’re likely paying more to make it worthwhile to Feyenoord to come back to the negotiation table since Lyon already had agreed a deal/was close to sealing it

I think I might be going mad, but could Shaw be a good partner for Frenkie in midfield? It’s been a long day.
Is Shaw the new Pogba whom we need to keep adjusting into some position or other to get the "best" out of him?

The De Telegraaf article from a few days ago alluded to Peter Bosz at Lyon dangling the carrot of regular game time at Lyon as being important to the player. And there was no guarantee he would get that at United with Luke Shaw still at the club.
You can’t do that in this day and age. Much less in the wordplace.

What the above highlights is the approach of both Jurgen Klopp and Arne Slot who both utilise the fullback as a weapon in the offensive transition. With ten Hag it's the same and it's why I keep reiterating why it's crucial to have fullbacks who are comfortable on the ball aswell as having the intensity/tenacity to match off the ball.

Not a good one, but still a far far better suggestion than people asking for AWB to be tried out in midfield.

He needs to pump those numbers up. Those numbers are rookie numbers :lol: :lol:

we were led to believe that but I never saw it, I mean he scored that one volley but I thought we was getting a Roberto Carlos type left foot. Tbh I wouldn’t be arsed if either him or shaw left The club.
Roberto Carlos is 168cm. So, this guy has advantage, 1cm! ;)

Might be the only reason he goes to Lyon if he wants guaranteed first team football. Highly doubt he’d want to come here to play second fiddle to Shaw.
I reckon he will eventually replace Shaw by around September.

This isn't going to be a long wait.

It’s 5 sub in EPL next season. Everyone will get plenty of minutes as long as they perform.

Wish it was a RB but he does look a tidy little bargain for sure exactly what the club need, Ajax didn't build the team everybody wants by spending 80m a pop did they.

I've never seen the kid play so I can't comment on his quality, but I see he's only 5'7" and that's a bit concerning. EPL football might be a bit of an adjustment for him.
Go look up Trent and Robertson heights.

Comparing Eredivisie vs Premier League stats is misleading. On top of that, Feyenoord were a very dominant team last season while we had ended with a 0 goal difference.
