Should be getting him in. He and Dalot can play lots of games.
I’m not sure.Any idea if they're reliable Zoo?
Meunier and Firpo would be a step in the right direction.
Please elaborate my friend..La Derniere Heure is a serious source.
Good to hear this.La Derniere Heure is a serious source.
Pretty much the biggest sports related newspaper on the French speaking side of the country.Please elaborate my friend..
While paying a lot more for the privilege of doing so. Money that could probably be better spent elsewhere given we don't have unlimited resources.Said it a bunch of times but this one makes way more sense than Wan Bissaka right now. Would be happy with either of course, but only 20 or 25m for Meunier, hes a lot better going forward so it gives us a right sided threat, he's versatile and at an age that's perfect for Dalot to develop. Awb just kinda means we write off Dalot as a future starter
Precisely.While paying a lot more for the privilege of doing so. Money that could probably be better spent elsewhere given we don't have unlimited resources.
Replacing in 2 years is ideal IMO.Disappointing, he's alright but far from top class and will need replacing in 2 years if we want to compete with the top clubs who now have world class players in pretty much every position.
I'd be much happier to see us go for Cancelo, unless we really have to go cheap at right back to afford our other targets. As I said in another post, PSG fans on their forum are celebrating that this guy is off.Replacing in 2 years is ideal IMO.
We can't replace every weak area with a top class youngster this year, and 2 years gives Dalot and the youth prospects the time to step up.
Won't be disappointed if we overlook the likes of AWB for Meunier so the focus can be put on RW, CB and CM
In part, it is because of how he's spoken about us.PSG fans seem very glad to be getting rid of Meunier on their forum, not a great sign.
Perhaps by then Dalot might be ready to step up . They do , but we dont all the way along that back 4 . All need replacing with perhaps the exception of Lindelof . Shaw , Smalling and Bailley no more than a squad players at best . Young and Jones are not even that .Disappointing, he's alright but far from top class and will need replacing in 2 years if we want to compete with the top clubs who now have world class players in pretty much every position.
There'd be some on our forum that would be cheering if Pogba left. It's not always about a player's ability.I'd be much happier to see us go for Cancelo, unless we really have to go cheap at right back to afford our other targets.

I agree, seasoned pro and a Utd fan, let’s not forget this is the easiest position to upgrade being as the bar has been set so low. Saves us a boatload of cash to blow in more important positions.Would be a much more sensible choice than spending fortune on a fullback and hoping we could teach him how to attack and get better on the ball. So much better than what we have, wouldn't block the development of the young players who will compete for the spot. If Meunier is really available on the cheap, it's a no brainer.
I hope you're right, but it seems a lot of them are referring to his defending and decision makingThere'd be some on our forum that would be cheering if Pogba left. It's not always about a player's ability.
Why? Are you one of those fans who just moan about everything?Hope it's not true.
Well he's probably not all that good.I hope you're right, but it seems a lot of them are referring to his defending and decision making
Yep. £60m for a right back that means our promising £20m player we bought last summer has no real route in our starting 11 (unless he benches the £60m player), or a 25m option who is at the right age and still a big improvement (and versatile) to be able to develop Dalot properly.While paying a lot more for the privilege of doing so.

Exactly. Young is 33... not that young.Meunier coming in can only mean that Young won't be the starting RB next season.
Not to mention also blocking Laird who looks an absolutely fantastic prospect. Theres absolutely no need to spend big money on that position right now. Meunier can also cover at LB to give Shaw a breakYep. £60m for a right back that means our promising £20m player we bought last summer has no real route in our starting 11 (unless he benches the £60m player), or a 25m option who is at the right age and still a big improvement (and versatile) to be able to develop Dalot properly.
Defensively he isnt the greatest, but his attacking will be such a big plus to us, and he can run all day.
