Aurelien Tchouameni / Signs for Madrid
- Thread starter Adam-Utd
- Start date

A McTouameni midfield would propel us CL challenging heights.
I'm not normally someone who fanboys over transfers. But this guy would be immense in our brand of 4-2-3-1 (built around two ball playing CBs, two highline FBs and four forwards who give the ball away easily but create all their own chances).
Our double pivot doesn't need to be creative. What we need is the ability to defend against dribblers. Our overall possession and shot creation stats are already good enough.

I said many times Touchameni is a better player than Carmavinga and he is proving that with Monaco and France. If we bought him in last summer we could be in a better postion now
Could have added more value to the team than Ronaldo to be honest as he could have brought more balance to this squad.

Will probably end up at Newcastle.
Yeah. Wouldn’t be a surprise to see Newcastle go back to the French market in a big way again.
Will be a huge player. Should be doing everything we can to sign.
Signing him and pairing him up with McTominay won't be the way forward IMO. McTominay isn't good enough and until we bring in a better ball player we won't get anywhere anytime soon.
He's also almost 3 years older, but I definitely prefer him right now and him being in the French set up and Camavinga in the u21 tells you he's definitely ahead at this time.
It’ll be one of those ‘statement of intent’ signings like when Chelsea signed Makelele, Crespo, Mutu and co, and City signed Robinho.
Absolutely. Mctominay isn't good enough on the ball. Should be backup. Sign this lad and a proper passes in midfield.
He has everything required to make a great CM.
Very well rounded just how Ole likes, receiving raving reviews from Pogba who will no doubt be giving Ole the heads up.
Physically great in both size and ability to get around the pitch, he will excel in England.
IF Ole wants Rice, then he should be looking at them both. I really hope we don't put too much faith into Mctominay expecting him to become the new Carrick.

He looked very good again. It seems that he doesn't have a weakness in his game.
I read the other day that United are not remotely interested in this lad, all the gossip was just to prompt Chelsea into making a move.
We only have eyes for Declan Rice, and he only has eyes for Chelsea...

Seems more like the replacement for Fred to me.
Energetic and presses on to the ball.

Just some Journalist trying to get his name our there. Let's be honest none of them have any idea what's actually happening unless it's leaked.I read the other day that United are not remotely interested in this lad, all the gossip was just to prompt Chelsea into making a move.

Not 1 of them got a sniff that we were back in for Ronaldo until it was practically finished. If they can't find that out about the worlds most famous player?
Is that not what we're looking for? A replacement for Fred but stronger and much more talented on the ball?
Yeah?
Playing beside Pogba tonight 
Playing beside Pogba tonight
Playing well too... Tracked his runners into the box very well, very energetic too
He's been brilliant. I really like him and compliments Pogba
The lad’s top class.
Watched him for Monaco against Shaktar...looked every bit as sensational.
I think we missed the boat on him. Summer was our best chance.

He will be off to somewhere like Real,PSG,City etc. Feels like we have missed the boat. Should have signed him from Bordeaux.
He's passed the audition.
Don’t need him. We’ll get Rice for a world record fee for a midfielder
Imagine we had this guy to play beside Pogba with Bruno.
And people are happy with McFred who are poor Midfielders for the level they play .....

Rice will be our Pogba replacement. We will pair him beside Fred for another awful midifield partnership.
If we get the worse player for a higher fee....if anything ever summed up this current United...this would be it.
France playing back 3 which allowed Pogba & Tchouameni to work together but still, it worked very well tonight
Sad thing is I can actually see this happeningI have a bet on it cause I know Manchester United are that stupid post Ferguson
That's not funny mate stop it.
On another note. Really impressed with that lad. We should be in for him I reckon
Played well but can anyone tell me what he did different to what Rice (who a lot of people dont rate) would have done? Let's be honest, too.
Prepare for the inevitable haha.
Only thing that might stop it is if VDB leaves in Jan and we try buy Tchoumani. That would be the best thing for us.
Rice Pogba would be brilliant together. Issue is just Rice's cost is the problem
How much would Tchouameni cost?
He's ok but I'm struggling to see what he did well. Did not appear to control the game as a passer, did not appear to be a defensive presence either, it was in fact Pogba putting in the hard yards in the end while also switching play and stringing together attacks, so not very different from what he does at United. A player like Rice would genuinely make it possible to play a 4-1-4-1 style with Pogba and Bruno firmly supporting the attack.
As usual in cases like this, the player himself will be able to choose what suits him the most among a number of offers from top clubs, so that the release clause or the current valuation is just a number. Faites vos jeux and bonne chance.
Most of us said the same similar about Fabinho. What does he do that makes him a top player? Worked out well.
