Two Brazilians needed actually: Alex Sandro at LB and either Willian or Douglas Costa at RW.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Totally agree! Willian or D. Costa our right side would transform our attack!
Put Sandro at LB then a new RB (possibly Partey) and we’d look like a brand new team with very few weaknesses
Would Juve really sell 2 of their first teamers?
Maybe if martial is going the other way they would consider it
More chance of us signing Lavid Duiz, the Brazilian Kenwood juicer marketer.
Why do people expect us to sign Willian? Surely Chelsea would refuse to sell us another player after Matic being regularly viewed as a mistake for them.
If Martial really wants to leave I'd send them Darmian, Martial and Herrera plus £50m for Pjanic, Costa and Sandro.
Of course they would reject it and laugh at me but it would solve so many issues.
The poll says who SHOULD we sign.
I think José is essentially saying "the only reason Willian isn't here is Chelsea. Willian, ball is in your court".
Lest we forget when having a go, he wanted Perisic. He too would have made a massive difference for us. Douglas Costa less so, not the same kind of fit.
NObody if not Neymar 
Andreas pereira pls?
What about Richarlison from Watford?
I dont think its a option. Its impossible to know whats his real level in the EPL until next season. When he arrived in England he had a imediat impact probably because he was in superior physical conditions due to the fact the season in Brazil starts in january, so he already had more than 30 games played at that time. But after some months when all the players are peaking he was falling.
Need to wait the vacations/pre season to see if he can make it in the EPL.
I don't know how he is doing at Monaco, but it would be exciting if United could sign left back Jorge. I think he's the most similar to Marcelo in recent years, the talent is definately there. His defense can be shaky though, but United needs offense and creativity imo.
Some seriously over rated players in that poll. Willian isnt even a guaranteed starter for Chelsea and must be touching 30 (plus not another exChelsea player ffs), Costa is a huge talent but then so was Nani, he is so inconsistant, Fabinho I think would be as bigger flop as Bakayoko has been, Jorginho isnt even Brazilian and just seems decent to me, same with Fred. Sandro is the only one that stands out, still think he will be over priced, unlikely and I would still like to see Shaw get fit and get more games, its not like he has even been awful for us, few games he has played been no worse than a lot of players who have played most games this season.
Personally apart from Neymar I think all the best Brazilians are the old ones like Marcelo, Silva, Alves, dont see the ones in the age range in poll being that great. Would much rather we went for a talented youngster like Jesus at City with genuine would class potential....Malcom, Lincoln, Alan Guimaraes, Rodrygo. WOuld rather a riskier transfer that could pay off liek it has for City than an average one that bar Sandro doesnt really significantly improve us long term.....in my opinion anyway

I kind of agree. I think Rodrygo would be
. Really rate him. But you'd have to wait 3 or 4 more years for him to make a difference, since he's 17.I agree with many what you said apart some points: i think there are few great full backs out there and an in form Alex Sandro is top three in the world. That said i would rather Jorge from Monaco who is only 22 and i believe will be a superior player.
Jorginho doesnt lost his birtright citizenship because he naturalized Italian. He is Brazilian.
Also, i wish United showed interest in Arthur from Gremio but is not gonna happen. I rate him over Fred no doubt. I would pick David Neres from Ajax or Malcom over Willian too. I think United should sign Rodrygo Goes from Santos and loan to some EPL club. Apparently Barcelona "control" him now but still possible.
i have a feeling that we are going to sign sandro
You'd smack Jose for purchasing Neymar? This place is a ruckus.
Fabinho/ Fred and Rodrygo.
How about Alex Telles from Porto if Sandro is too expensive? Don't think Sandro has had the best of seasons either but he's still quality. Meanwhile, Telles looks pretty good although in a weaker league though.
I get the feeling he'll only be back if Martial leaves and Alexis needs a backup.

Glad it isn't Willian.
Talisca is going to China apparenlty
Probably will be in addition to Fred. I'm just gutted it's not Alex Sandro.
Fred done. Next Sandro please.
Castles reckon we are still in discussions for him.
Wouldn't rule out anything, could be both, could be neither, could be one or the other
Romano and Di Marzio who are to go to men when it comes to either United or Serie A saying there's no truth to the rumours. Have to hope it's a case of nothing YET.
You sir, would make a top notch journalist
Castles linked us with Fred on 11th January - he has sources.
We'll see if he is right about Sandro
IndeedYou sir, would make a top notch journalist
WilliaOFF?
Maybe we are waiting for those not going world Cup, and trying to tie up those that are.
Mourinho said one, though.
I always thought Andreas Pereira was Brazilian.....
Definitely need a Brazilian mate for him.
For settling like.
For settling like.
Wasn't he also the first to link us to Alexis?
I've been shot down before on a different thread but United definitely have Anderson Talisca on their list, he may not be their A or even B target but he's on the list. Jose loves him, 6'3, fast Physical and Left footed plus can play in a multiple of positions.
Plus he's Brazilian!!
Plus he's Brazilian!!
What makes you so definite?
