Was speaking about Tagliafico

I'm not convinced about his defensive ability and playing him alongside Pogba probably wouldn't be the best idea. For the right price he'd be good backup for Pogba and Fernandes but that's it.
Van de Beek would be a brilliant signing.
You mean the Herrera who just had a blinder in the CL final and was only let down by his team mates? If he's as good as Herrera, I'd be extremely happy.
Sessegnon seems better as left forward than lb at the moment
I do think though that he covers for 2 or our 3 most important players and we might find out he can function really well in a pivot too. Also might be a great option to bring on in a game where we need more intent
i'm quite worried by the amount of people mentioning his lack of ability on the ball.
From the little i've seen his style isn't too pleasing on the eye but could be effective. Muller esque but that would be a compliment.

Weirdly enough, I forgot about him completely.
Whoa! That picked up steam quickly! We've even got as far as being interested and monitoring the situation! Unveiling tomorrow?
Herrara was actually a decent player for United. He put in his all and also scored some important goals against top half sides. I would switch Fred with Herrara in a heartbeat if there was a chance. Tenacious and had the ability to play good through balls if someone f**k*** actually made a run behind the defence line in those times.
What position in midfield does he play?
He's best as an advanced CM or AM, but he can play anywhere across the midfield.
After 48 hours of course.
Started as a 6 turned into a 10. Probably can play an 8. But haven’t watched him for 12 months.
No pleasing some!
What would you rather?
He’s a really good midfield option to rotate Bruno and Pogba that won’t cost £50m plus. He’s got CL experience too.
If and it’s a huge if we get him and a Sancho that would be an amazing window strengthening in creative areas in which we are sorely lacking game changing options.
Was never a LB IMO and have always maintained that. There was a lot on the caf actually wanted him for LB spot here, which seems even more mental now.
All picked up steam after he got left out of the Ajax squad entirely earlier during their tune up match against Frankfurt and their coach himself confirmed that they're in talks with a club regarding a transfer for him.
There was speculation as to whether it was Barcelona with the Koeman links or another English club like United initially but Barcelona journos quickly shut their rumored interest down while we haven't
It was a shame he left, I loved him. I agree, I'd have him over Fred, all day.
Pogba will probably be fine in a few weeks. But yes, we do need depth and he can cover all midfield positions so his versatility makes him a good addition.
If he plays for the club for 5 years and has the same impact as Herrera, I’d be extremely disappointed.
Yeah, I imagine he means the same one - hit and miss.

People were saying Ziyech to Chelsea for 35m was a masterstroke, well DVB was just as good that in their CL run and he will be a similar price? what's not to like?
He is neither young nor a top midfielder. Opinions i guess
Herrera is an important and usually key part of a team. He's tactially disciplined, got a fantastic work rate and extremely technically sound. We just didnt have a good enough team/manager situation for the 5 years he was, but he was always a consistently good player for us.
Herrera is never going to be a Bruno, but you saw in the CL final what he can do for his team mates when in well set up team.
Well he is 23 - with 210 matches. So he is very experienced despite being fairly Young. And yes - he will improve us a lot.
I won’t comment on his ability because I’ve no idea but how the hell is 23 not young?
So basically a backup for Pogba and Bruno?
It's clearly the new 28
We've not bought any bad Vans from the Netherlands. Even Van der Gouw was decent enough.
Van der Sar
Van Nistelrooij
Van Persie
All quality Vans.

Do you want us to sign a 7 year old?
News like this annoy me when the team screams out for an RW,CB and CDM.
Yeah, that'd be the intention.
Fabrizio looks a bit cautious. Either he doesn't know enough about it or else anu deal is still in early stages
Van Der Gouw was a bit meh.
Guess you dont mind seeing Pereira/Lingard on the pitch
Either you’re 14 or you have a weird perception of age
Not sure I really remember too many bad games from Herrera tbh, so I don't agree with that assessment. He has generally always been a consistent player.
Ah the old considering a bid.
Not really what we need, is it. I guess €40M for squad depth must be the going rate at the moment. I think Ole sees Fred as Matic's natural successor?
