Having read the thread about our new recruitment strategy, I'm wondering what you have to enter into the scouting software to bring out Emre Can as the answer. He's a bit of an all rounder but not the best and doesn't really stand out for a specific part of his game. It's just a very random target.
Juve do not want him. So they're flogging him off. We want to sign players. We're buying him because he's available; not because we scouted him.

So because another midfielder has been a let down, we shouldn't buy another? Ignoring the fact that Matic was declining, closing towards 30 and Emre Can is 25.
Wait hes only 25?? I could have swore he was way older.

Can is no world beater, but he’s at a decent age with good experience, good attitude, good presser/energy and just a generally all-round quality midfield player.

He wouldn’t transform United on his own obviously, but he’d significantly improve a mid-table at best midfield and wouldn’t be daft money probably.

Good player and walks into United’s midfield. Always thought he was decent and was glad when Liverpool lost him.

Not a world beater but improves us in my opinion.

We probably win the game yesterday if we had Can. We need some quality to make the difference, it's mad people don't think he could be a good short term/squad option.

Can will be a great squad player, once pogba leaves, we should have 3 very good midfielders with can, fred as squad/reserves of those 3.

Yeah I was shocked by that, he seems to have been around for years.
Definitely would be a good improvement in our midfield.

He'd most likely be an upgrade, but I'd rather we didn't have to get someone who played for that lot.

Emre Can't be that special. Squad depht ok but we need 2 quality 1st team midfielders.
The last time we've bought a Liverpool player...oh wait...

He s quality but I m skeptical about his attitude. I watched him play for Juventus last week and he looked not bothered.

They told him he'll be part of the CL squad and then proceeded to leave him out. I can see why he is pissed.
