There isn’t much in their unders record and as of now Gomes hasn’t made any impact in the first team. Chong has at least had a couple of good performances.
I had high hopes for Chong, and I'm not writing him off yet, but I don't think he's had a single good performance for the senior team? I'd say he's been mostly dreadful, which I don't want to say about someone so young, but its been difficult to watch him at times when you know how much more comfortable he can look on a football pitch.
Gomes has shown more flashes of quality and promise for me, even if they've been few. Chong just looks completely out of his depth, not even the same player as the one at the lower level. Hopefully a loan might help him.

If the reports about Kai Havertz are true then that would be incredible. Prefer him to Bruno Fernandes.

€130 mill. they are supposedly asking. Insane amount of money, Ed will never go along with that. Not to mention all the other top clubs supposedly are after him.

Gomes & Chong both look like they need a solid loan move. Greenwood looks like he can do it in the first team now but i haven't watch a good performance from the other pair.

There will be a fair chunk of money to spend if Pogba is heading for the exit.

Don't remember any good Chong performances. Keeps losing the ball nearly every dribble or some stupid pass. Gomes on the other hand looks really good with his dribbling and can definetly see him become a great player.
I’d say they both had equally underwhelming apperances... at least when compared to Greenwood and Williams. To be fair, they have usually played against low-blocks which we are crap against, so not the optimal time to shine.

"Earlier this week, it was revealed by Yahoo! Sport journalist Man Utd Lonjon that Manchester United were taking an interest in Club Brugge’s Emmanuel Dennis".

"Foot Mercato on Wednesday, however, add a bit more detail in an article confirming Lonjon’s information.

The French website explain that source have told them Manchester United are indeed after the Nigeria international, and have joined other Premier League sides, like Leicester and Southampton, in the queue"

Not sure what an underwhelming offer is, for a player that hasn't impressed all that much for the first team bar the pre-season. Leave it to Luckhurst to make us look bad though.
sure has to be about wages? I can't imagine any club offering a starting position to a youngster that hasnt proved a thing. I get he wants to go due to lack of game time but I dont think that can be translated into a contract.

Man Utd Lonjon is an elite name

Hasn't score a lot of goals. Is he a striker?

The article says they felt underwhelmed at our preliminary offer, it might just be me but I'm pretty sure we're going to go back with another offer and it's a case of seeing what wages and assurances the player and agent want. I haven't given up all hope a deal can be agreed, circumstances can change very quickly in football.

Not entirely clear what his best position is. Has been fairly underwhelming this season. He can have good games, but he's incredibly inconsistent and can be frustrating to watch. Will never be good enough for United imo. No reports in Belgium whatsoever I think.

it's BS too. he went to Copenhagen, not Manchester.
Ok. I will add UnitedReds to the list of accounts to ignore. Don't think it was part of the list in the OP.

The list in the OP is examples of rubbish accounts - not a definitive list as, if we were to add every aggregate account that posted nonsense, we would be here for years. Good rule of thumb is if the account mentioned says "football insider" in their bio and the avatar is of some sort of stock image then it is rubbish (like the 360Sources mentioned there).

Cool. Thanks. Will pay more attention, going forward.
