I’m still lost to the idea that out of all the options in Europe. This is the only midfielder we find suitable!!
Man City would never.

Guess it depends on the manager. ETH has an habit of signing players he’s worked with before… doesn’t always work thoughI’m still lost to the idea that out of all the options in Europe. This is the only midfielder we find suitable!!

Yep can see that also……out of nowhere he is suddenly signing for Atleti Madrid and we will say we were never interested…..This is all looking very much like one of those where in a the blink of an eye he’s signing for someone else after all this faff about him joining us all summer.
And hopefully the player we actually have been lining up is significantly better.This is all looking very much like one of those where in a the blink of an eye he’s signing for someone else after all this faff about him joining us all summer.
Im far from convinced we actually are.Yep can see that also……out of nowhere he is suddenly signing for Atleti Madrid and we will say we were never interested…..
if we wanted him, we would have signed him by now. He won't be coming to us.Tweet

Poor guy is gonna be left with no team.
Kalvin Philips?. Arambat is class and is proven and tested on highest level. What more do you want from a new player?. I'm assuming you are aware that country of origin and reputation aren't actually that important to the qualities of a playerI’m still lost to the idea that out of all the options in Europe.

Not if we don't have the money as we saw with Pavard.if we wanted him, we would have signed him by now. He won't be coming to us.
It looks very likely Amrabat has had assurances he will be a United player. Remember he knows the manager. Otherwise he would have signed elsewhere I guess Pavard was never a priority?Not if we don't have the money as we saw with Pavard.
I mean fab has been saying all summer hes our number one target for MF but...doesn't look like we have even tabled a bidI don't think I've seen anyone reliable link us with him.
We obviously thought we’d of sold VDB by now.I mean fab has been saying all summer hes our number one target for MF but...doesn't look like we have even tabled a bid
He’s also repeatedly said any move for Amrabat is dependent on us shifting Fred and Donny. Currently we’ve only managed to move one of them on and it looks like we’ll be stuck with Donny so I can’t see a move for Amrabat materialising unfortunately.I mean fab has been saying all summer hes our number one target for MF but...doesn't look like we have even tabled a bid
Eh? Is Romano not considered reliable?I don't think I've seen anyone reliable link us with him.
Well Donny was never going to bring in much so not sure how much that is impacting things but we definitley took a lot less than we expected for Fred. I still believe we are trying to scrape together the money for this through smaller deals like Emeran, Iqbal etc. We should see a small book profit on Kovar even if we are signing Bayindir and presumably Henderson will generate at least a loan fee. We are essentially digging behind the sofa cushions for spare change to see if we can afford one more player and hoping he is still there when we find enough.He’s also repeatedly said any move for Amrabat is dependent on us shifting Fred and Donny.

This how I see it regarding the assurances. Personally, I think Evans is good enough replacement for Maguire as 3rd choice rcb and 4th choice lcb. The money needs to spent on Midfield.It looks very likely Amrabat has had assurances he will be a United player. Remember he knows the manager. Otherwise he would have signed elsewhere I guess Pavard was never a priority?
I never said that. But we will see how the players that improved last season actually improved or were just on form, because improving means to sustain the level, not do so for a while.So you're of a opinion no player has been improved since ETH came?
Agreed.I never said that. But we will see how the players that improved last season actually improved or were just on form, because improving means to sustain the level, not do so for a while.
Wouldn't the same apply to any other team after him? If they really wanted him he'd be gone?Unfortunately it looks like he won't be joining. Just as I've been thinking for the past few weeks. If we really wanted him, he'd be done by now. Looks like we'll have to file him in the folder next to Gaitan and Sneijder.
I disagree, to be honest.I still don't see how we'll improve with Amrabat and where he'll play. May be a controversial opinion but he'll have to be a replacement for Casemiro and not play alongside him. A midfield of Amrabat-Casemiro-Bruno is far too rigid and would be an absolute bore to watch...
What about Mount though? Bench? I would imagine he would be starting most matches but I guess he can replace one of those attackers depending on the game. This really shows how unbalanced and unsure we are of our midfield.I disagree, to be honest.
I would say the idea of having a solid double pivot of Amrabat & Casemiro behind an attacking front four of Rashford, Bruno, Hoijlund and Antony sounds good.
I agree, it does sound good enough.I disagree, to be honest.

Yeah, like:We need the Amrabat Tactical Analysis video bro!
Mctominay survives again. Just when we thought he would be gone this summer. So, we aren’t accepting low offers for him. Nobody is bidding high offers for him. We aren’t buying anyone before we sell him. Everything was already hard enough and now this Mount injury. From definitely being sold to sneaking into the starting 11 again . I swear god owes him something. If he survives this season, testimonial coming in 3 years. Take a bow son, take a bow.Tweet

Getting a new midfielder is even more of a must now
It does make sense if we're playing a big side (even then I'd prefer a player in the mould of Gravenberch next to Cas), but against the small sides it will be a whole bunch of side to side passing and everyone will complain we have all the possession but don't create anything. Which is the opposite of where we are now, not having much possession but creating a decent amount of chances.I disagree, to be honest.
