Tierney is already goneWho is the third option, Tierney?
Can the scouts not source one from outside of the PL?
He isn’t. Would make sense on loan too as he’s decent and wouldn’t cost silly money. Though Dalot can play LB fine. Of the Loans we all laugh at the Chelsea player so surely he won’t be inflicted up on.Tierney is already gone
Yeah exactly, my concern is more that we look to be prioritising it over a midfielder or backup ST/CB which are much bigger issuesWhy is everyone crying about Cucurella and Reguilon? Both on here and Twitter.
Do people expect the club to sign Davies or Hernández? Or unearth the new Roberto Carlos because we need cover for a few months?
All but doneHe isn’t. Would make sense on loan too as he’s decent and wouldn’t cost silly money. Though Dalot can play LB fine. Of the Loans we all laugh at the Chelsea player so surely he won’t be inflicted up on.
Selling Henderson will enable us to buy at least 1 more quality player. I think we'll go for Amrabat/other midfielder and loan a LB.Yeah exactly, my concern is more that we look to be prioritising it over a midfielder or backup ST/CB which are much bigger issues
It is terrible optics and would show massive hypocrisy on part of the club but this is the glazers United, so this type of nonsense is expected.Getting rid of Greenwood and getting Alonso in would be the ultimate feck up
Seems like Alonso isn’t interested in leaving Barca.Isn't there a report that [Irrelevant point] is a potential target?
We just got rid of Telles and Williams. Either could have covered for 3 months.Both Cucurella and Reguilon seem sensible options. We can't go a buy a LB for 3 months.
Yeah, me too. I'd have him ahead of Alonso and Reguilón.On a loan ... I'd be onboard with this to be honest.
He was very good at Brighton
Would be a worry. Great left foot but dodgy defensively.Isn't there a report that [Irrelevant point] is a potential target?
Agreed. If there’s anywhere someone can find form it’s hereCucurella on loan would be pretty good actually.
I mean he's been beyond atrocious any time I've seen him play for Chelsea, but he was Brighton's POTY the season before that which earned him that £55m move.
Hope he discovers something like that previous form and if not, feck it. He's still an extra body to cover for a few months while players are injured and you haven't tied yourself to anyone permanently.
Well we didnt know that Shaw will get seriously injured.We just got rid of Telles and Williams. Either could have covered for 3 months.
So you NO1, 2 left back are injured and you NO,2 right back fills in what is the point in any adult LB i.e like Fernandez being even at the club if now he doesn't get to cover. I feel the same about Pellistri hardly ever been given a chance. If they hang around on the chance, if they don't get what's the point.Why Martinez at LB.?
He will struggle with paced winger.
Would be another play massively wanted by Pep who ends up at United.Cucurella on loan would be pretty good actually.

I think that a LB still potentially pushes Maguire down. For example, say Cucurrela comes in and does relatively well, then Shaw could become a centre back option depending on a) Varane and Martinez fitness, b) general rotation options, c) who the opposition are, I,e Man City at home last season.We shouldn't be targetting a LB imo.
Instead, we should be targetting a left-footed CB who can cover at LB until Shaw/Malacia are fit.
United are already lacking quality cover for Martinez. By buying a LCB, we could kill two birds with one stone and bring in a player who has a more long term future in the squad.
It's only going to be a few weeks he's needed at LB. If the new guy is uncomfortable there, he can simply drop into a back 3 whenever Dalot/AWB invert on the other side.
I've got no idea if Todibo is capable of that. But if he is, he should the number 1 priority way ahead of Reguilon or Cucurella.
That's the most underwhelming shortlist of targets I've ever seen. Alonso is probably the best of a bad bunch although I wouldn't want him at the club.So our three loan options are (according to transfer tweets).
1. Cucurella
2. Marco Alonso
3. Regullion
Not sure which id want out of those, probably Alonso.
