In addition to FDJ? Brilliant! As a replacement for FDJ? Likely!
I'm beginning to believe our scouting department is 14 year old kids playing FIFA.Our recruitment the last few years would make a sick team on Fifa 10.
Victor Valdes, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Falcao, Zlatan, Alexis Sanchez, Cavani, Ronaldo...
All past their best and on big money. Just shocking mismanagement.
Catelyn Stark was the original KarenIf you tell me her name is Karen I'd believe it
You agree he improves us then? We arent buying the next great central midfielder so lets just go with improvements and take it from thereSo do countless other players. Ones that don't come with the same amount of baggage.
It’s wrong on every level
I seriously doubt most people here actually watched him or know him besides from tabloid headlinesAnyone turning their nose up at this after watching those 2 clowns in midfield yesterday, needs their heads checked. I dont care what 'baggage' he is/has.... He walks into our team and improves it
Same hairstyleChase De Jong all summer, then panic buy Rabiot on the deadline day, reminds me of something…
Yea, I would take Fellaini over this chap.
Suggests he would play as a holding midfielder if he were to come here. Frankly for €15m if we were to continue spending the money to plug gaps across the pitch which we'd left aside for De Jong it's not a bad signing. He's far, far better than Fred or McTominay.Tweet

The plan was to play hard ball with barca for three months. Murtough has lost the plotHonestly, this club had months to plan the transfer window. Once it was obvious we weren't qualifying for the CL last season, there should have been strict planning on arrivals.
If ETH came in and scrapped the entire shortlist of targets, then we have learned absolutely nothing in the past few years.
The Rabiot and Arnautovic links are so uninspiring.
No. We already have a squad full of players that are "on their day" players, or players with question marks over their character/determination etc etc. No use adding another to that list. It's counter productive, even if he is an improvement.You agree he improves us then? We arent buying the next great central midfielder so lets just go with improvements and take it from there
Honestly, he should be sacked if no further players are brought in.The plan was to play hard ball with barca for three months. Murtough has lost the plot
Yeah he’s a good player, a step up from McTommy for sure. Are quite a few player I’d prefer before him but by no means would he be a poor signing. However I suspect we won’t get him and he’ll see out his Juve contract then seek big wages.Is he good or not? Have we decided yet?
I'd take Drinkwater at this point. If the Board won't cough up big money for vast improvements, let's make baby steps in the right direction.
Didn’t think it could be possible but The White Stripes have really let themselves go
He doesn't. He's absolute gash. Like, barely a footballer at this point.Anyone turning their nose up at this after watching those 2 clowns in midfield yesterday, needs their heads checked. I dont care what 'baggage' he is/has.... He walks into our team and improves it
Billy Gilmour?Surely Chelsea need to offload some of their midfielders? Can’t we ask about Gallagher or that Scottish lad?
What, trapped in a cave for the last twenty years.I'm beginning to believe our scouting department is 14 year old kids playing FIFA.
That’s the ladBilly Gilmour?
You are joking me right? Trash? Do you watch him regularly? You think hes no better than McTominay?He doesn't. He's absolute gash. Like, barely a footballer at this point.
If by any chance United get him for around €10M, and he is not on crazy wages, then it is an alright outlay, not expensive and far better player than McTominay, although we should not consider McTominay's level a barometer to sign playersJuventus want €15-20 million (£12.5-17 million) for Rabiot but United are unlikely to bid that much for the 27-year-old France international
That's his position ?Playing Rabiot as a holding midfielder
If we'd replaced Fred with FDJ (or any of the other half a dozen great options) and then replaced McTominay with Rabiot to play further forward with Eriksen, I wouldn't have a problem.
But my fecking word what a clownshow we are.
Playing him anywhere else other than a holding midfielder would worry me. Thats why hes 'baggage'. He wants to be running the show in midfield but really his best role is defensivelyPlaying Rabiot as a holding midfielder
