Yeah I agree. From what I've seen of Trippier, he'd worry me defensively and I don't think he's a great attacking fullback either.

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.

They're selling United tops with Varane on the back at Longsight Market. It's a done deal.
Welcome "Champions League Varane"
Big dick defence boys!
Eh I really don't agree. And we'll probably see that first hand. We can all be excited without going overboard.
I did it, to stop everyone moaning. Sorry @Damien.Why are the mods so reluctant to change the thread title. We all know it's a done dealio at this point
I don’t think he’s a terrible option but I think again it is that sheep mentality. He played more than people expected for England and all of a sudden he’s the saviour at RB.
Varane! Feck me sounds surreal that we’re close to actually signing this guy. Still can’t settle until he’s holding up the shirt though. 
We may need to protest at OT more often. Clearly the fans anger is having an effect on the Glazers. Flawless window so far with two genuine world class signings. Just need to sort out the MF situation with Pogba.
Now bring in Tripper, Camavinga and Haaland then it’s a satisfactory window.
I hear you, but before I challenge you to produce a list of three better CBs, I would demand that that list be over the last three years. No one-year wonders.
Not this season, next year maybe.
not by CAF standards...that's an arsenal window
Since people liked it the first time I wrote it some weeks back:

Verratti would be a great addition as well IMO
No Goretzka?
Happy Varane-times Day!

That's genius, actually. You have to sing the last line really fast to fit the tune.
With 'Rafa Varane' it works perfectly.
Don’t worry, he’ll be holding it before the end of the week.Varane! Feck me sounds surreal that we’re close to actually signing this guy. Still can’t settle until he’s holding up the shirt though.
... which is exactly the same Fabrizio said. He streamed while posting the tweet and said the deal between the club was almost complete and it would take a couple days to get done...You’ve just posted tweets that have been doing the rounds for days. “Soon, close, soon”. That’s not a confirmation.
I'll believe it when his slow old legs are failing as he watches Mane run past him and net at Anfield.
There are 5 notes in the last line, so it can be done if you have your wits about you.

Whatta Varane

Whatta mighty good Varane
Can’t wait till it’s officially official
And hope he brings that classy Bentley into Carrington as well

My sincerest apologies Monsieur Varane.

Last season
Unbelievable. Was just coming to post this.
Might as well while we’re at it.
Every CB in the world makes mistakes so I fully expect a huge meltdown when Varane makes his first in a Utd shirt.
Massive upgrade on Lindelof though.
Macho, Macho, Varane!
I gotta be a Macho Varane!
I gotta be a Macho Varane!
It's obvious that you didn't even say this out loud.
Well I personally can't carry a tune to save my life so in a sense it doesn't matter how many syllables I have to cram in there, it will sound horrible either way.
