David Neres linked to United by Daily Mail

[Alabaster Codify7]

Don't believe this. I'm thinking it'll be Lukaku to Juventus; Dybala and Mandzukic to United (still unsure about Dybala's head to be honest).

And business done. If Dybala refuses a swap, Juve are getting money for Cancelo and possibly Mandzukic so they'll just buy Lukaku and we'll go last-ditch hardcore for Fernandes.

 

[RDCR07]

Not sold on him for 50m. Would rather get a better midfielder in.

 

[carpy]

That article claims Ajax want €70 million and United have the money but can't do it due to financial fair play, also claiming that is the exact reason United missed out on Pepe. So, clearly a load of horse poop.

 

[joedirt87]

would rather buy Lozano if I had the choice between 50 million euro valued wingers I have seen very little of.

 

[Sterling Archer]

Okay, but why the feck would we wait til now? Who else were we after? Sancho? I thought he said no months ago

Better than waiting until after the window has closed. Not to mention its almost certainly horse manure.

 

[ArjenIsM3]

Just went on a Dutch footy forum and every Ajax fan on there is begging Ajax to take the money. They feel it's a crazy amount for a fairly limited player. They're saying stuff like "If Marc Overmars pulls this off he's a fecking legend".

Same here.

Agree as well about Dybala's head. I dont think he wants to be here and it feels like ADM all over again.

 

[NYAS]

No thanks.

Sancho 2020.

 

[AlexUTD]

Makes zero sense to go after Neres now. If we get Dybala we should be looking at central midfield.

Dybala is not a natural right winger though

Why do you think it's Dybala or Fernandes? They don't even play similar roles or positions

 

[Robbie Boy]

Nowhere near good enough.

 

[AJ10]

Rubbish.

 

[Big Ben Foster]

Screw him. I told many people at the beginning of the summer he'd be one to watch in the Copa América. Repaid my faith by being absolute rubbish in the group stage before being dropped for the knockout matches.

 

[izec]

Too inconsistent

 

[ManchesterYoda]

Martial - Rashford - Neves
Dybala

James - Greenwood - Chong
Mata

​

 

[Gerald G]

No thanks. Not now anyway

 

[stevoc]

Martial - Rashford - Neves
Dybala

James - Greenwood - Chong
Mata

Where's Jlingz?

 

[ManchesterYoda]

He's only 22 yet his shot accuracy and dribbling success rate are both over 60%.

 

[ManchesterYoda]

Too inconsistent

Which of our current attacking players is "consistent"?

 

[SinNombre]

Which of our current attacking players is "consistent"?

Even more the reason we should stay away from Neres.

Our next attacking signing after Dybala/Mandzu needs to be a "certain" one. If Sancho repeats his 18/19 season, that might be it.

 

[RDCR07]

Which of our current attacking players is "consistent"?

Exactly. Why add another one to the mix?

 

[AlexUTD]

Dybala is not a natural right winger though

He can play inside right forward and we bought James.

We need a CM after Herrera/Fellaini left.

 

[ManchesterYoda]

Exactly. Why add another one to the mix?

I hope we sign him because he's an exciting left footed right sided attacker with great potential and that's exactly the type of player I want us to sign. It's my top priority.

We didn’t sign Pepe. We ain’t going to sign him. We are saving up for Sancho next summer.

 

[WR10]

Why?

Our club actually want to pay to take minutes away from Greenwood? That kid will be worth over 100m in a few years

 

[ManchesterYoda]

The Neres YouTube highlight reel I'm watching reminds me of a Martial one I happen to watch earlier in the week. It was a highlight reel of Martial's debut season.

 

[ManchesterYoda]

We didn’t sign Pepe. We ain’t going to sign him. We are saving up for Sancho next summer.

I want Neres AND Sancho. I want us to improve the squad. Sancho is better than any of our attackers.

150m for just our RW? Seems crazy when we have a couple who can cover that spot plus the likes of Greenwood and Chong coming through.

 

[Ole90+3]

Why do you think it's Dybala or Fernandes? They don't even play similar roles or positions

Aren't they both no 10s? Attacking midfielders? If we were to play 4-2-3-1 they'd be the middle of the 3.

Neres is for the right, Sancho is for both left and right.

he is 17!

 

[SAFMUTD]

Dont want, what we need is a midfielder adapted as a winger, just like we’ve done in the last successful years.

 

[Alemar]

This guy is simply not good enough. It’s a Lingard level footballer, we’ve got some already.

 

[ManchesterYoda]

Each time I read one of these "not good enough" or "don't need" type of posts about good players we're linked to, it makes me want us to sign them even more.
Which left footed right side attackers do you think are good enough?

 

[Alemar]

Which left footed right side attackers do you think are good enough?

Pepe was better than this guy, yet we abstained from buying.

 

[One Night Only]

All of them. Consistently shit.

 

[Icemav]

Even his highlights video struggles to make him look good. Either bad editing or he might not be the next Lingardinho...

 

[RDCR07]

Neres is for the right, Sancho is for both left and right.

And what exactly are you gonna do with Martial and James?
