Been saying since Ole came back 18 months ago that we should go for him. I think he’s the perfect back-up profile - and I expect Bournemouth would be reasonable. He has a year left on his contract, and you could tell from Howe’s comments that it was with a heavy heart that they refused to let him join us in January. We screwed them leaving them with hours to find a replacement, but even then, the reports were that they were trying, and if they had gotten Jarrod Bowen they would have let him come. Howe was saying that the club ‘know what United mean to him, but we really need him to try and stay up’.
This time round they would make it easy for him so long as we don’t take the piss.
