You don’t have the money.

 

[bringbackbebe]

You don’t have the money.

True. Can we offer Van De Beek in exchange?

 

[croadyman]

Loan with option/obligation to buy looks the only way we could make this happen,suspect with scouse finances he will end up there as still have the Caicedo money

How much did they get for Henderson & Fabinho

 

[GledTheRed]

How much did they get for Henderson & Fabinho

12 & 40.

God knows how they got 40 for Fabinho.

 

[croadyman]

12 & 40.

God knows how they got 40 for Fabinho.

How do they do it with their players,so where did that other £58m to bid for Caicedo come from

So is for Gravenberch going to be the transfer saga to close the window with? 22m seems very cheap for a 21 year old in this market, especially if both teams are in for him.

Gravenberch wanted in England

 

[Shakesy]

We're a tier 2 team. We buy rejects from tier 1. Do! It!

 

[Real Name]

So we're ditching Amrabat and going for this guy?

 

[Highfather_24]

I dont understand United's transfer plans, I really dont.

 

[Dr. StrangeHate]

Is this the guy that Bayern got from Ajax and was considered their biggest talent?

 

[blackhawk747]

Is this the guy that Bayern got from Ajax and was considered their biggest talent?

yes. he was considered as the next pogba. I was quite sad when he is confirmed the move to bayern when we couldn't get ETH confirmed as our manager yet otherwise we may have a chance to get him last summer.

Sounds promising then.

 

[dubplate warrior]

He's very talented, people shouldn't judge his level by one season at Bayern.

 

[Castia]

Seems like exactly the type of midfielder we don’t need right?

 

[Telsim]

I dont understand United's transfer plans, I really dont.

1. Manager wants player.
2. Buy player.

That's it.

 

[Marauder1]

So we're ditching Amrabat and going for this guy?

They are different players, Gravenberch is not a DM, ditching Amrabat for him does not make sense

What kind of player Gravenberch is?

 

[Highfather_24]

He is an #8. Will play in the exact same position as Mount/Eriksen.

 

[gajender]

What kind of player Gravenberch is?

Not particularly good one if we go by what Bayern supporters think .

 

[Mickeza]

The pattern of Klopp and ETH wanting the same players continues.

 

[Marauder1]

What kind of player Gravenberch is?

what @Highfather_24 said, he is an 8. If you are in for him I don't see why you wouldn't also still be in for Amrabat. Maybe Gravenberch is more of an opportunistic punt, talented youngster who has not worked out at Bayern but has the tools and could be available at a good price. Still think a DM or someone close to that role would be a higher priority for you.

 

[red_de_pologne]

so Amrabat and Gravenberch would cost less than Mount?

 

[Idxomer]

Not particularly good one if we go by what Bayern supporters think .

Had a quick look and he started only 6 games in all competitions since his move to Bayern.

Doesn't seem he's particularly rated by either Nagelsmann or Tuchel who sees him in training every day.

 

[CantonaManc]

I’d certainly prefer him as an option to McTominay, he would offer us cover in 3 major positions (cam, cdm and his preferred central midfield), also offers us a great option to replace Eriksenand Mount.

Think the most important Midfield player we need is someone who is press resistant. Time and time again we lose midfield composure because we are pressed and cant get out. If had that midfielder it allows the other midfielders to more space and then we can break through

Haven't seen much of Gravenberch but I think he replaced FDJ so could do a bit.

He is ball carrying midfielder https://fbref.com/en/players/b8e740fb/Ryan-Gravenberch check his stats he's quite decent ball carrying numbers.

 

[Lash]

Only way we go for him is if we sell Scott, in my opinion.

 

[Zoo]

Seems like exactly the type of midfielder we don’t need right?

A midfield connector is exactly what we need.

 

[kaku06]

We need a midfielder who is good technically and can carry the ball forward who can connect the defence to attack and he fits the bill. Added advantage he’s physical too. I think he would be an astute signing.

 

[gajender]

Had a quick look and he started only 6 games in all competitions since his move to Bayern.

Doesn't seem he's particularly rated by either Nagelsmann or Tuchel who sees him in training every day.

If we are going for him then it's more of a calculated punt due to his low transfer fee and familiarity with Ten Hag , I am not sure whether that's a good thing or not .

 

[greater wall]

Is this the guy that Bayern got from Ajax and was considered their biggest talent?

Yes

 

[Highfather_24]

He's exactly the #8 profile we need, true, but then what's the plan with Mount? Why did we buy him for 55M for the same position?

And we still need a #6, to cover Casemiro.

I think this makes sense if ETH wants him as a loan replacement for VdB, but even then, I'd still want a #6 like Amrabat.

Mount was a feck-up. Its obvious after two games.

Every article I read on why we signed Mount spoke about Ten Hag valuing his versatility. He also speaks in every single press conference about wanting two top players for every position. I think Mctominay is going to leave and we’ll sign 2 midfielders.

Nothing can be obvious after 2 games. Escpecially if a transfer is a flop.
