I can't fecking wait.Young-Smalling-Jones-Shaw.
Next seasons back 4 is ready.
Who are we to tell you mate?i am ok with this? will be cover next year.
Jones 4 year deal is cringeworthy
With both Darmian and Valencia leaving it's only normal that he stays for another year. We can still bring in another RB.He's a very poor fullback but he covers both sides and apparently being liked in the locker room is validation for a contract these days. We knew it was coming so it's whatever, I just pray the plan isn't for him to be our starting RB next season as it's a massive weak link in this side.
I share similar sentiments. We should be down to 3 fullbacks come the summer - Dalot isn't quite ready yet, while the established Shaw still has the injury question mark to shake off. Young has his limitations, but is competent on both flanks and provides experienced leadership within the squad. A great rotation option all things considered and saves wasting money on a Danillo/ Zappacosta fringe playerI'm fine with it. With Darmian and Valencia probably leaving, it makes sense to keep him as depth.
He shouldn't be first choice next season however.
What? That makes feck all sense considering one of them was signed before Mourinho was sacked, one of them is very likely leaving and one of them is arguably the best in the world in his position, so it would insane to just let him leave.Couple this with the Jones contract and the strategy starts to become clear. Of the players in your squad, five have Premier League winners medals (De Gea, Valencia, Smalling, Jones, Young) and you've just signed three of them to new deals in the last two months, regardless of their standing in the squad and ability to play regularly and take you to the level required. Solskjaer hasn't been publicly confirmed as your new long-term manager but these kind of decisions make it obvious to me that you've got the band back together behind the scenes and are interested in retaining what's left of Ferguson's squad.
