Wan Bissaka would be great for a club in that tier below the big boys where he won’t be required to be so competent in the attacking third. Somewhere like Newcastle or Leicester.

What leads you to believe AWB could 'come good' other than hope? He's hardly improved at all since he arrived and he's useless going forward. As he was an ex winger I find it very hard to believe he'll ever improve on the attacking front.
Probably quite a few but with the timing of the claims about AWB it does seem a little bit of a coincidence.
I do feel sorry for AWB, considering how disjointed and problematic our squad is, to be the first high profile person to go by the new manager's choice (and to have it plastered as a headline) seems a tad harsh.

Nobody said he was the ideal signing. He is a realistic option where in reality central midfield needs two orthodox players, not an advanced attacking player, and more of a defensive player who can take on a role that pushes Fred higher up the pitch and makes McTominay a squad player. And with United having a need in midfield but also other areas, the more quality players the club can get in while replacing current players outright or pushing down the selection like McTominay, the better.
From those who have actually watched him and analyzed some match data, he is worthy of joining the club.
Will he get a testimonial? 11 years of flawless service.

No contract renewal
Lingard, Phil Jones, AWB, Henderson...

No idea if he's reliable, but leaves us pretty short on attacking options if so. It's not the best time to be needing a top striker with the only available ones going to Real and City respectively.
If this is true, it would hardly be the biggest surprise. If Bayern need to replace Lewa, he's probably the most obvious available fit.
Go get that shirt # Raphael.
If we manage to get some £m for him, then Murtough is a jenius with a capital J.

We'll be paying off his contract, no team's making him 100k per week contract. Or we'll get a fee but then use that to subside part of his wages, Ala arsenal with Auba or what we did with Rojo.
Worth a punt?
Wan Bissaka will never be good enough, his technique is too poor for a team that wants to keep possession and dominate matches. Dest isn't very good but he's at least semi-accomplished in his passing and dribbling. And Timber is already a better footballer than Wan Bissaka will ever be with much higher to climb yet.
Oh how great of them after paying £50m for him, maybe they could have done their due diligence before buying him?
Honestly not bothered. Seems overhyped. Looks a decent player but not for 70 or 80m.

Fab jumping on it
Calling bullshit on this one. There's no way he turned down the chance to play with Ronaldo unless he has a serious offer on the table from Madrid or something
Surely worth a punt?
He was the choice after looking at 1,000 RB's apparently...
And that's why the scouting department got gutted last month.
Why do so many players leave Juventus on a free?
Then they wonder why people thought they was idiots
I can’t wait for a new scouting committee.
Fair enough, but that begs the question why couldn't we get Trippier in? At a time when we had CL football to offer too.
Because they got there for free so they leave for free..
Just like Pogbye for us...oh..hmm..
"in fairness" after spending 50m. Sure.Trippier moved to Atletico in the same window we bought AWB, no? And we went through hundreds of RB. Who had final say in spending 50mil for AWB two years later to going back for Trippier?
Bizzare
Apparently he told us he was going to go to Arsenal instead. That was last week.
Maybe his agent hasn’t updated him on the current Stat quo yet.
Maybe cause AM wanted £654357m for him?
Atleti wanted £20m for him or something and we refused to pay it.
course he is! His agent is almost definitely trying to play clubs against each other here.I hope we make a take it or leave it offer and let him go elsewhere if he's not interested.
So we keep both for another year and pay them for not playing?
About AWB:
Is it really wise to announce this so openly?
This is a massive "We don't need him, please take him away from us!" outcry that greatly lowers his price.....

Only took them 2 years to conclude he is not up to it!
No way we have offered that much. Ornstein mentioned we are looking at 60m euros. Most likely BS news. Plus this CL news seems like made up as well.
We’re getting Richarlison aren’t we
