really like him as a player. Wouldn’t say no to him at United

I would!
Think he's a good player, would be nice to have him as a squad option to give Pogba a rest, but I feel he's too good to be simply sitting on the bench.
Been really impressed with him whenever I've watched him. But he seems a bit lightweight and he's not really good enough to be a no.10 for a top club just yet. Still only 21 and in 2-3 years could be a top player. Definitely one to keep an eye on.
He's used right wing
Pretty sure he plays as a no.10. Anyway I'd say his best position is definitely as a no.10. He doesn't have the pace to be a top winger or even a wide forward.
Quality player - by far the best player on Bournemouth this season.
He was different class when I went to the Wales-Ireland game. So cultured on the ball.
Although, to be fair, I would have probably looked cultured on the ball compared to the shower of shite that showed up for Ireland that night.

I've seen him have some good games, including against United, but he faded from the game yesterday. Everton's Ademola Lookman on the other hand looked like a good player for the whole game, and would be on my list to buy.
To me, lookman looks like he’s not got the injection of pace to really make him top drawer
Yep and that’s where I’d play him.
He’ll be one of those “wish we’d signed him” moments when he ends up at spurs or Liverpool
He'd cost a bomb. Might as well sign Jared Bowen if we're going to take a gamble on a young British right winger as he'd be a lot less.
Wouldn't mind him here. Great prospect.
18 starts on the right wing this season.
He’s just got that thing about him. It’s like he glides rather than runs.
He has roller blades on?
Barely any games there
Ah well I've seen him infield most of the times I've watched him. Anyway thanks for clearing it up.
Boot check before he goes on the field I reckon
I must've been marking him. I make anyone look quick.
Great little player. Former City academy player. Massive United fan. Would take him in a heartbeat.
Looks promising alright.
Suspect he would be getting close to 40 or 50million if we tried to sign him.
Wonder if Bournemouth would take a part exchange for of our players as we desperately need to offload. Phil Jones or Rojo as their defence looks a bit lightweight?

You guys really are obsessed with these hypothetical swap deals.
There's no way Bournemouth are gonna get that much for him, I think he would actually be quite cheap , a bargain, but worth it

The same way Lingard and Mata come off the wing to play inside yeah. Think he played centrally against us, one of those only 3 games
Yeah, hope we are keeping an eye on him.
Yup I remember for sure he played infield against us. I don't think he has the attributes to be a top wide player. Much better suited to be a no. 10 in the long run imo.
Desperate for
I really like him too and reckon he's going to be a top player.
If he still played for the Blades, they'd be top. He's doing well at Bournemouth I just thought he should've stayed put.
I like him a lot too, but I cant decide if he is Man Utd-quality. Reminds me a bit of Mata. Can see him improve instantly in a better team, but at the same time I do think our attacking players need to be more «extreme»?
Our Lallana replacement. Read somewhere we were in contact with Bournmouth over him before and during the Solanke and Clyne negotiations.
He's a quality player. He's been brilliant for us and Bournemouth this season, think he can only get better and I'd love United to sign him.
Class act. Bournemouth did very well to sign him early.
With him, Ake and Lewis Cook, Bournemouth have gotten three excellent talents.

A good talent, has some skill etc.. like Foden.. or looking back, Bentley, Wiltshire etc.
I wouldn't mind him at OT, but he isn't going to start many games. And as someone mentioned, he needs to develop some power and pace to play at top six sides. Get him on a good deal, and he is happy to develop his game at United, then yes, I would love him.

Looks a quality baller and a big United fan I believe. Could be a good mata replacement or offer more end product coming in from the right than Lingard. If we were ahead of the game we’d have got him before he went to Bournemouth though. With the prices quoted for the likes of Hudson Udoi this one wouldn’t be cheap
Yes. Fully agree.
He is already showing many good qualities and looks like he has a good football brain in that he seems to know both where his team mates are and where he needs to be. Has good balance and a bit of an edge.
Shame he is Welsh.
He doesn’t have more end product than Lingard though and he loses the ball far more. Fraser and Wilson are the most productive at Bournemouth with 14 G+A, then Brooks and King have half that with 7 G+A.
