If we want to compete with a team that have De Bruyne, Rodri, Gundogan, Bernardo Silva, Foden and Phillips in Midfield then yes we do need them or players of equivalent quality.Would Utd really need Mount and Rice?
Casemiro and Fernandes would still both be expected starters
The best teams think bigger than just having a couple of permanent starters which leaves you screwed the minute one is injured or suspended. There are more than enough games to go around. Look at Real adding Bellingham to a list of Camavinga, Tchouameni, Valverde, Modric and Kroos.Would Utd really need Mount and Rice?

Yeah its not the priority in comparison with other areas in the team.Tweet

Maybe just stating the obvious after the Dalot news yesterday, but I'm happy with this. Never thought we needed to be focusing on this with so many other areas that need addressing.
Yeah, I fecking knew it. They did their homework and realised that Mount and Rice are joined at the hip. It's a massive draw being able to play and travel with your best friend at a big club.Now the prospective Mount signing makes more sense... though seems rather an expensive negotiating ploy
We start early every season. The problem is finishing late.Its brilliant that for once we are starting early.
hahahaha so trueWe start early every season. The problem is finishing late.
Not as huge as the line you snorted whilst typing thisGive them Maguire, pay them 20 mil more and get Rice! Would be huge!
Are we?Its brilliant that for once we are starting early.
Well said.Rice is very goodand I would like him at the club but man +£100m is just too steep a price to pay when there are CMs who are just as good out there for half the price. We can get two quality CM/DMs for the price fecking West Ham will quote for Rice. +£100m should be reserved for transformational players honestly. We need to learn our lesson with Maguire, Pogba, Antony, Sancho and stop massively overpaying for players. Particularly in our context where we have so many holes to plug and we have so many horrible contracts that we are struggling to get rid of, this just does not make financial sense.
Worked wonders for us when we signed Kleberson first then our main target Ron ... Oh.Yeah, I fecking knew it. They did their homework and realised that Mount and Rice are joined at the hip. It's a massive draw being able to play and travel with your best friend at a big club.

Yeh usually finishing late is a good thing.....We start early every season. The problem is finishing late.
This is why I dislike UtdPlug. They plagiarise whatever Tweet another aggregator sends out and don't even verify the info with the source. At this point, I'd like them to be banned.Tweet

Could Laird feature in that mix? I think it's injuries that have always hindered him or has his ship sailed? Was a mixed season for him, few standout games overseen by 3 different managers in a very dysfunctional season for QPR.Tweet

Ah man don't get my hopes up! I think this lad will be really special. I also expect him to go somewhere like Dortmund though...Tweet

Adeyemi's their 'project' though (with Haller for the present) . I think 45-50m Euro plus achievable and CL winner/PL winner-add ons is what we'll be prepared/able to pay for a 'project' player , given other needs, with a loan/cut-price 'experienced' striker the other FWD signing, and then potential Kane -or, as an outside bet, given Madrid factor, Mbappe - megadeal free signing next summer. And he should be purchasable for that after negotiations, particularly with the 'growing up MU supporter'/new agent factors in play...Ah man don't get my hopes up! I think this lad will be really special. I also expect him to go somewhere like Dortmund though...
Chelsea have an extrodinary nerve asking for 80mil given the state they're in.The reason why Mount's fee is supposedly going to be higher than expected:

Either we pay more than £50m for Mount, or we wait until next year to get him for free.
When Casemiro Eriksen and Bruno have started 24 matches 4 draws 1 defeat and 19 wins the one defeat and 3 of the draws where when bruno was out left with weghorst at tenI'm sure I read somewhere that starting with a midfield three of Casemiro, Eriksen and Bruno we had a 100% success rate. ETH knows what he is doing, but we just need to make sure there is adequate cover when any of them are injured / suspended.
Or the whole premier league knows we're suckers every transfer windowChelsea have an extrodinary nerve asking for 80mil given the state they're in.
We should prioritize this deal if we are interested.Tweet

Martinez and him for around £100m could workTo be fair, this says to indicate he wants two strikers. Experienced player and a younger player. Not sure I believe we have the money to do that though.
Who are your ideal targets?The best teams think bigger than just having a couple of permanent starters which leaves you screwed the minute one is injured or suspended.

I am glad we are finally starting to bolster our options so that we aren't just one incident away from McFred or Lindelof-Maguire combos again. Although Mount and Rice are not my ideal targets, but whatevs.
Nope, we should stay away. West Ham are doing everything they can to cultivate a bidding war and we should stay out of it.We should prioritize this deal if we are interested.
Very disappointed if true. Think rb is a big problem area for us and leaves the team completely unbalanced on the rightTweet

Agree . Rice is a decent player but they are trying to cash in on him big time ,there are plenty of other alternatives for less money. We need to shop sensiblyNope, we should stay away. West Ham are doing everything they can to cultivate a bidding war and we should stay out of it.
Imagine having to compete with other top clubs for top players...Nope, we should stay away. West Ham are doing everything they can to cultivate a bidding war and we should stay out of it.
