That is also how he played last night. I think at least 2 of Pogba, Hazard and Eriksen will be at Real next season

They will go for Hazard if they make another big signing..

Unlikely,unless Madrid themselves have a major clear-out.
Plus Mane and Salah.
This looks quite alright for us, we can play both ends.
Barca don't have 100 mil to spend on DeLigt and also have too many CB's.
We should try to up the price on DeLigt and force them to sell us Umtiti.
De Ligt and Lenglet. Their CBs sorted for the next decade then.
De Ligt and Todibo.
Ed: "Hold my beer"
Bayern might be regretting spending 80 mil on Hernandez when they now know they could've spent it on De Ligt
Wait on what exactly?
I get that for the likes of SW, but utdreport is literally banned in the OP. As it should because they're terrible.
I think they should be allowed as long as they mention the source in the tweet.
A lot of them constantly misquote their sources.
Then maybe we should maintain a strict blacklist and warn anyone who still posts tweets from those accounts. Now it's a bit of a grey area because mods don't hand out warnings about this. It's sort of tolerated even though it's against the rules.
5th could be an improvement.
That he is.
I’m already not looking forward to next season
How is us overpaying for a very injury prone CB to fund their purchase of the most talented CB in the world any good for us?

The heavy favourites plus Rice or a player not listed
I admire your optimism.
I don’t understand that Bayern is still being linked with CBs. Adding another one would only make sense, if they ship out both Boateng and Hummels AND move to a backline of 3.Bayern might be regretting spending 80 mil on Hernandez when they now know they could've spent it on De Ligt
But then they wouldn’t need wingers and Coman and Davies would be pointless.
Tl;dr: I don’t see Bayern in the market for a CB
They've been actively trying to sell Boateng and Hummels for a season now, they've both been told they can leave. I think CB is one of their first areas they're looking to improve on.
I'm sometimes tempted to join the Caf feedback loop of pessimism and doom, but I'm not quite ready to board that train yet.
We need a quality centre back. Maguire for sure. Looks like City are after him though.
Have you even watched im this season? He's been utter crap and has costed Leicester a lot. Brenda even went for a 3 backline in his first game to stop the goals from leaking in
For anyone to believe a story like that. They have no clue what OGS wants...they are guessing.
Any decently successful team has an ok (or better) defence.. one or two more defenders is a must and if we can get someone who could play both (say Milenkovic), I don't think it should impact on our ability to buy in other positions.
I'm not being big headed but we're Man United... we shouldn't be limited by the number of new buys (especially given the current standard of our squad), we should only be limited by how much we want to spend and whether the 'right' targets can be found. We shouldn't be saying it's a centre half OR a winger.... a midfielder OR a right back? (Personally, I'd say 2 defenders, 2 midfielders, a winger and a centre forward/no.10.... part funded by sales).
Maguire would be such a Woody signing, a complete waste of crazy money on someone who’s not an improvement on what we already have, and the cycle goes on.
With news if likely no CB can we skip next season cause its going to be pointless without one.
Unless Tuanzebe becomes a starter and is proven good enough because we know the others aren't. Very unlikely though.

I completely agree with everything you said.
Maguire was one of the CBs Mourinho wanted and Woodward vetoed last summer, along with Alderweireld and Mina. And the reports also said that he vetoed him for your exact reasoning, that he didn't think he was an improvement on our current options. So your being a bit harsh on old Ed there.
Agreed. It was important to wait a season after Maguire's impressive world Cup to see if his form was sustainable. It wasn't, and spunking 60M on him would be daft.
I don't think it's a given that we won't sign a CB. It counteracts reports like these:

I think we should be testing people like Tuanzebe because they can't be worse than calamities like Rojo or Bailly was this season.
"...Felix and Fernandes are two of his leading targets and in recent weeks United have further explored the possibility of bringing them to Old Trafford for a potential combined fee of £150m..."Tweet

if only
That’s what I like.
Yesterday he was saying that agents are clueless as to who to talk to at United because of the mess we are & today he is telling us that "we have stepped up our pursuit". So we got a point person between Robson's two articles? That was quick!
I am guessing this guy is one of the moron journos who don't know shit but spout a lot of it?

Yeah I’ve seen quite a few games. His form has tailed off but he’s still better than what we have.
They already signed two in Pavard and Hernandez. And have Süle. They are probably set for the next 7 years at CB.
Pavard and Hernandez can play as FBs, but are best at CB. Alaba and Kimmich are also not going anywhere.
