If we had signed Grealish instead of VDB and Pellistri I think we probably would have forgotten about pogba by now and sold him this summer.
VDB smacks of a panic buy, doesn’t really seem to fit in anywhere, a nothing player for me. I don’t think hes brilliant in the hole or strong enough for the two holding positions. A fairly good player but doesn’t tick any boxes.
Rashford—Martial— Greenwood
———Grealish———-Bruno
———————Fred————————
That would work against lesser teams and be good for chasing games.
With Cavani, Pogba Mctominay Matic, Diallo, James in reserves.
Maybe Grealish was unattainable but I don’t think that was the case, Woodward presuming he knows best again I assume.
