I agree on Malacia, I think for the fee paid and his age profile he is a great option to have and will hopefully improve further.Malacia is great for backup and money paid, if you expected more from him, that is on you. And Antony was not amazing but was decent enough, fee paid for him was because of it being very late in the window, it doesn't mean anyone thinks he is worth that much, again, that is on you.
Amrabat will bring a much better balance to our midfield, we’ll see that pretty quickly and he’ll nail down a starting spot while Mount is injured. Mount will still get plenty of game time this season but we’re currently getting sliced open at will with the current midfield setup and ETH won’t persist with that just because we spent a lot of money on it.So you think he is going to replace players that we have paid 125mil on in the past two seasons?
If he’s in better form than Mount then yeah, he’s startingSo you think he is going to replace players that we have paid 125mil on in the past two seasons?
Antony is a good case study of where that's not necessarily the case.If he’s in better form than Mount then yeah, he’s starting
It’s not about how much players cost… it’s about form. City have over 200m on their bench sometimes.So you think he is going to replace players that we have paid 125mil on in the past two seasons?
Yeah we have loads of great RW’s on the bench. good point.Antony is a good case study of where that's not necessarily the case.
Having a year left on a player's contract doesn't mean as much as it used to. The out of contract players that are signed for 'free' usually get a ridiculous sign on fee. In any case he effectively had two years left, as other have pointed out.So you think hes worth 30 million with a year on his contract? How much do you think hes worth if he had 3 years on his contract? Presumably we'll have that situation in a year
He wasn't registered to play on Sunday I thoughtI wonder if ETH will throw Amrabat straight in on Sunday - it would be a bit of baptism of fire but if he does well it will be a huge boost for his - and the team's – confidence. My guess is he and Rasmus will be on the bench
He wouldn't have been registered in time surely?I wonder if ETH will throw Amrabat straight in on Sunday - it would be a bit of baptism of fire but if he does well it will be a huge boost for his - and the team's – confidence. My guess is he and Rasmus will be on the bench
Apparently he was very lean.Medical was a Pisa piss.
Shit ton.Not writing Mount of, just dount understand the signing for that position, hopefully I am wrong.
But at the same point, come on the last two summer we have made eleven signings, not youth players either, this isnt including several loan deals.
How many signings do we need do make?
I certainly hope you are right regardig Old Trafford rocking. On paper, though not perfect, if things slot into place and certain players perform well, to be fair I do think it could be the best first eleven we have had for a while. But forgetting too many ifs and maybes. We have spent not far from half a billion since Ten Hag has come in, personally not sure half of it has been wisely and looking at players that have gone to other clubs, I feel seveal others may show this season they have progressed further and we arent looking at a nailing it window next summer......rather another not offering champions league football and a lot of talk of another cull....which again we will fail to do.
Arambat for £10m at this point in the window as at first a loan is a good deal, but as you mention yourself and I have done on this forum a fair amount recently......we are very reliant in terms of progression in Hoijlund and Mainoo who are both young and inexperienced having big seasons
I think he is for a Sunday gameHe wouldn't have been registered in time surely?
Thought someone said they had to be registered by 12 noon yesterday to be eligible for this weekends games?I think he is for a Sunday game
I thought he signed at 11amThought someone said they had to be registered by 12 noon yesterday to be eligible for this weekends games?
I though the deal was done by 11am - papers seemed to have it at that timeTo play on Sunday the player has to be registered by noon on Friday.
Hargreaves left for Florence few hours after noon. He was a Fiorentina player at the time. He won't be available.
Documents were signed in the evening, so they wouldn't have been able to register him noon (9-10 hrs prior), can't be done surelyI though the deal was done by 11am - papers seemed to have it at that time
This. Thank You!Documents were signed in the evening, so they wouldn't have been able to register him noon (9-10 hrs prior), can't be done surely
Reguilón was registered
Interesting video. He looks terrible at heading, doesn't even try to jump in many cases. Also, his long passes seem to hang in the air for way too long.Interesting watch.
strengths are definetly his tackling and passing especially in the first phase of play. Just dont expect much of him going forwards into the thirs phase. Will make us a better pressing team and is a good tactical signing.
A player has to be registered by 12:00 the working day before the match. He was registered before 12:00 today but today is not a working day. He is not eligible for the Arsenal game.I thought he signed at 11am
So you're saying Amrabat will be at Salah or De Bruyne levels? Got it.You probably missed the hype when City signed Kevin or Pool Mo
Yes, this is exactly what I said, weirdoSo you're saying Amrabat will be at Salah or De Bruyne levels? Got it.
Mount out wide would be interesting, did he do it often for Chelsea?Is our best set up 4231 now when everyone is fit?

He played on the left when they won the CL.Mount out wide would be interesting, did he do it often for Chelsea?
So you're saying you shit yourself and wet the bed?So you're saying Amrabat will be at Salah or De Bruyne levels? Got it.
Antony presses from front really good, think mostly that's why he is playing despite other parameters being shit.Antony is a good case study of where that's not necessarily the case.
He's a spitting image of the bloke I used to buy weed from in South London.
Of course. If Antony continues being… Antony, I don’t see why Mount or Fernandes won’t end up taking his spot on the right more and more often.Can see EtH playing Mount, Casemiro, Bruno, and Amrabat in the same 11.
That’s fully inaccurate. Where the feck did you get that idea? Read the thread and you’ll see there were plenty who think he’s not good enough based on “stats” and the erroneous idea that no-one else wanted him. It’s quite likely the same people who have reservations now.Funny, 1 week ago, 99.9% of people here were crying for Amrabat. Today, many of them are not happy with him
Not necessarily Antony. He does a lot of good work staying wide, pressing, and because he cuts in so much it allows AWB to overlap or underlap because of his invert position.Of course. If Antony continues being… Antony, I don’t see why Mount or Fernandes won’t end up taking his spot on the right more and more often.
what an awful player according to the statsThat’s fully inaccurate. Where the feck did you get that idea? Read the thread and you’ll see there were plenty who think he’s not good enough based on “stats” and the erroneous idea that no-one else wanted him. It’s quite likely the same people who have reservations now.

Forget the stats, some hopes is he fulfils his destiny and joins the category of useless signing, so they can moan every game.
