He's not a bad player but is he exactly what we need right now..

Reports are saying Bruno wants him to come though.

Portuguese bias, I don't fancy him, the guy na passion merchant, tominay innit.

iamoyindamola:

Thank God
God bless you scummies, how can we sell xhaka to get xhaka version 2

handelex:
Aside the odd goals he scores, I hardly notice him in games he's involved, like I've never seem him dominate or take over a game. Ndidi and co even Fred never hides in a game. That's just me though but to me he's not a stand out player.

Exactly the trap I am talking about, with Nuno gone(defensive minded), he might be exposed if the new coach isn't defensively minded too.

patrickmuf:
Just when we have gotten Sancho and Varane looks a possibility, we are about losing another quality player...

It doesn't look like he wants stay else he would have signed an extension, he clearly wants out so it's better for United to get a fee for him now than leaving on a free next summer.

I hope we find an adequate replacement for him though. I'd have said VDB but nothing suggest Ole trust him to replace Pogba...

How I wish the Goretzka's deal will be possible this summer, it'll be a perfect replacement, let's see as the situation unfolds though. Also Camavinga is too young and untested to replace Pogba.

iamoyindamola:

I already know the devil in Ruben,he's full time escort

I don't fancy him either, among his peers in the league, he's not bossing them in any stats whatsoever, he's just there..

TrebleChamp:
Secure deal for Sancho? I am not understanding dis line...

Lol, as I see am naim I report so

But you know Sancho ain't officially our player yet?

GloryIsaac:


Someone that was being priced at £100m+ is now around £60m. Raiola don dribble us

One year remaining in his contract, that's also Madrid’s situation with Varane.

KingAlabi:

Portuguese bias, I don't fancy him, the guy na passion merchant, tominay innit.

Lol Portuguese Tominay
We have enough passion already, we need more than that now, we need actual quality.

handelex:

Exactly why I said Raiola has dribbled us

I don’t want a Pogba to leave this season sha.

I say we sell Pogba and Matic. Replace with Goretzka, Camavinga and Reuben Neves. I'll actually prefer Palhinha if Neves isn't gettable as he's more of a destroyer type of player with decent passing skills. All three are gettable with the right negotiations. I'm off the Pogba train. He can go win as many farmers titles in a weak league if he so fancies.

patrickmuf:
So, who una want na? Abi make we continue with McFred...

The scout should do their work well, am sure their are many good solid DM/C
DM players out their. I never watch Camavinga play so can't say how good he is...

Our midfield should look like this


Rashford. Cavani. Sancho


Bruno

Palhinha Goretzka


Shaw. Maguire. Varane. Trippier/ AWB

Or when Bruno needs a rest

Rashford. Cavani. Sancho


Camavinga Palhinha Goretzka


Shaw. Maguire. Varane. Trippier/ AWB

4-3-3 as above wins us the champions league and league title. Murtough should stop fucking around and set his eyes on the sky. It's time to dream

I am not suggesting that we buy Camavinga alone...Instead of spending over 70m looking to sign another midfielder, let's sign both Camavinga and Neves (Or any other quality midfielder)...That way, the chances of the both living below expectation is low...

GloryIsaac:

If Pogba is not staying, do you think it will affect Varane's decision to come?

We don recruit new scouts abi na the same old ones wey dey nonexistent since you dey talk about?

World class line up but ain't happening.

Modric will likely leave Madrid next season so, I won't be surprised if Pogba doesn't renew and signs for Madrid on a free...

E go too bad if Madrid get Alaba, Pogba and Mbappe for free...

Ok but the way i see it, we need a DM irrespective of whether Pogba leaves or stays and that's Neves spot I presume. If Pogba leaves we'll now need a replacement for him and that's were Camavinga or Goretzka comes in I suppose.

So if Pogba stays one player, if he leaves two players.

Same scout that discovered Bruno, na laziness dey worry those people...

handelex:
Rumours aside there's little to no chance of Kimmich leaving Bayern, he's an icon just like Lahm, contract talks might not be going well but they'll eventually come to an agreement.

Bayern can't be daft to let him go.

You can say there’s little chance of Kimmich leaving Bayern and that he’ll sign a new contract and I won’t really object to that but comparing his status at the club to Lahm’s is a bit far.

The icons at Bayern currently are Neuer, Lewandowski, Muller. I don’t think think Kimmich has attained that level. Yet. Those trio I mentioned are ahead of him. Maybe the reason for the contract impasse is that he wants to get to that level and the club are dragging their legs.

melodyogonna:

That is very interesting. Kimmich is probably still the only player I really like in that Bundesliga. Would be very good if we can get him.

Edit: I just realized I didn't read the tail end of your initial post otherwise I would have seen the reason was clearly written there, no vex.

No p bro. I don’t really know him that well but he’s being spoken well about in most places. Do you think he can replace McFred?

P. S. I’m not talking about how possible this can be a reality. We know how incompetent United’s scout& transfer department is and how the nepotism at the club won’t allow anyone bench McTom. I’m asking hypothetically if he will do well in that slot.

patrickmuf:
Neves can mark/tackle, doesn't showboat, he can pass (not penetrating passes like PP) and he can pop up with some goals. If we can get Neves for 35m as well as Camavinga for the same amount then I'll care less if Pogba leaves.

Those replacements you mentioned won’t bring the quality passes and creativity from midfield that Pogba will take along with him.

Maybe Bruno will have to drop a little bit deeper and get more involved in buildup play than he’s been. We’ll need someone to bring that creativity. Unfortunately Sancho doesn’t operate from the midfield.

patrickmuf:
How long before clubs start avoiding his players?

I even think it's down to the performance of Manchester United over the past couple of years...If we were winning big trophies, most top players will want to join the club and we won't have this scenario where Pogba things he is too good to be playing for Manchester United. I might understand that he thinks at this stage, he should be winning big trophies though.

The club made a mistake bringing him back to the club jare. What if his case turns into something akin to Coutinho’s?

He could bench one, one thing I really like about him is his vision, He is able to create chances from deep and throw those accurate long balls with both feet, just like Pogba. Tho the range isn't as good as Pogba's tbh.

TrebleChamp:

No be any scout discover Bruno, na even them delay him signing sighting the fact that he loses possession often...

Bruno was already well known before we signed him.

Bruno dropping deep a bit is an option. Hopefully with Sancho, the creative burden is eased off Bruno...

Yes he's not yet reached that Lahm's legendary status but he's the golden boy of Munich right now according to their fans. He's a world class chap who's highly adored over their, it'll be very very hard for Bayern to let him go.

handelex:

No. Also, United can even avoid such dilemma by getting Varane in before further dealings on Raiola’s golden baby.

Ruben Neves actually has good passing. The number of accurate long balls I saw on his video I just watched is impressive. I'm not too sold on his pressing sha
