If he can be signed for £63 million then it’s a bit of a no brainer, an upgrade on Herrera and if managed to sign one of Longstaff or Rice as well as Rabiot whilst keeping Pogba we’d have a hell of a midfield going into next season.
Yes, 63 m £ for a 22 yo of this quality is a steal.

Get him and one from Lo Celso, Rabiot, Madisson or Neves, than we can happily sell Pogba.

Please don't let Spurs have a free run, we must try, by any mean possible.

Very diverse with your options there.

I'd be very surprised if we let him join Tottenham while only be content with long staf. It will be the same farce like we never went for fabinho.

Let him? What if he doesn't want to join United in preference to Spurs?

:lol:
There are many more attractive options in world football than United atm. Spurs isn't one of them.
That's your delusion I'm afraid.

Ndombele is 22. In his adult life so far he's mostly seen United as a club that finishes outside the top 4, beset with rumours of your better players wanting to leave, playing in the Europa League next season, and with a manager that he's probably never heard of.

An advantage we have is I'm not sure he even knows what a Spurs is.

Spurs can not pay top wages.
True. And you have the likes of Alexis Sanchez to prove it ... not to mention the likes of Pogba and de Gea, who both want out, top wages or not.

He has never heard of our Manager? Behave, Ole is more decorated as a player than any former Spur you can mention and just to rub it in he has won titles as a manager also which when I last checked the specialist in runners up medals running your club has never done.

"Tottenham are a great team, a big club. They finished fourth in their league and reached the Champions League final. They are a big club and what player would not be interested by a big club?”

Yes, but they still arent signing for Spurs. Utd still have more pull than Spurs even without CL football.

:lol: Ndombele is probably not all that interested in the Norwegian league. And when Ole was last playing, Ndombele was still at primary school.

I'm not sure Ndombele will be willing to wait with you.
Spurs are no where close to meet the asking price mate. If we lack vision in squad building like all these years then sure, could be possible as Woodward is on a train wreck mission for 6 years. But if united are involved spurs have no chance.

Yes we do, and we can splash out more.
Which is the United problem in a nutshell ... believing that offering huge wages means progress.

In fact what it's meant is that you are (a) stuck with several players you can't now get rid of; and (b) have attracted players who have only come for the money and who can't then be much arsed to put in a shift.

Sanchez problem is with injuries and played in a wrong position not about not putting in a shift. I dont think he will fail on that scale this coming season.

Ndombele is on his way to Spurs
If Ed has learned anything from the past, he will do everything possible to hijack the deal.

He is too good to go for just 63 M £, atleast we should push you to pay more, if we can't get him.

I still can't understand why we tried hard for De Lift, proposing a huge contract, and we can't do the same for Ndombele ?

Every young player breaking in the starting 11 of a WC team should be monitored.
Every young player that play well against yours PL or CL rivals should be monitored.

We should not give up before trying, but the most worring part is that the whole PL seem to hate us to no end.

Every time we want a PL player, the price go crazy and every club play hard ball.

I didn't see that for Liverpool or City when they where midtable and i still don't see it now that they are up there.

Why are they all happy to see us down ?
Why every single commentator want to stomp us when we are down ?
Why we look like we can't attract any good player from teams below us ?

It's unfair to assume everyone is as ignorant as you.

What's so great about him? Anytime I watch him he just gives the ball away constantly.
And so you decided to name a player that he has nothing in common with from a football standpoint?

He is nothing like Wanyawa that is what I was responding to.

He's a Wanyama in terms of a very physical CM Poch midfield signing that I don't quite get. Poch was a huge Wanyama fan while to me he never looked anything special at all.

Feel free to tell me what I'm missing. Perhaps i keep seeing him on off days or something.

Energy, creativity, engine, builds from the back, press resistance, forward passing.

Are we so confident about long staff that we can happily ignore him?

Well, he isn't very physical, he only has the tools. That's not his game and that's actually an issue because it's the one thing that he doesn't do consistently. His usual game is closer to Naby Keita.

And if he wanted to compare him to a recent Spurs midfielder Mousa Dembele would make a lot more sense.

No idea where we are with Longstaff. I've seen almost nothing of him but what I've seen looks good to me. I'll have to watch more of Ndombele. Every time I've watched him his passing has been really loose and he keeps dribbling into trouble with his head down.
