VDB would still end up on the bench to cos he isn’t displacing Pogba or Bruno and won’t be an ideal CDM with those 2.

Whether it is Maddison or VDB or Grealish, we would be buying midfielders for the squad so our game play does not go to shyte the moment Pogba and Bruno are injured or rested.
Call me stupid but i feel lingard will do great for a mid table team aswell

He just needs his confidence back

If we need squad depth, let's go for vdb out of those three mentioned.. These English chaps ain't it

Fantastic! I watched the Lad in one of our Europa games we was fantastic. Please Doc, dont we have good midfielders in the academy that we will use to replace Lingard and Pereira? To be Frank those two have overstayed their welcome
For some reason Dylan Levitt has not been given any real opportunity even though he has impressed as a midfield controller for the last 2 years.
I am suspecting it is because of his physique as he is a skinny lad. I love his passing range, awareness, and composure on the ball.

Hannibal Mejbri is tipped to be the next world beater after Greenwood but he is still probably 2 years away.

I have always keenly followed the youth setup but developed even greater interest during Mourinho’s reign when we were playing diabolical football.

They should be ready to collect 30-35m for him. As they will be relegated. I dont think Grealish will agree to play another season in the championship. He will likely force a move. My point is United should not be mugged for this guy
On point

[quote author=Ravioli post=91296439][/quote]His fat agent is a major reason though the guy knows his job.

This Grealish almost never plays centrally, always LWF.

I am quite suspicious of the guy. He is not quick enough to play on the wings for a top club and we have not really seen him play that 10 position in the EPL.
More reason I'm not sold on the Idea of splashing the cash to get him.

Levitt is the only youth player I’ve seen slot into the CDM role and settle down comfortably. He can dictate play and provide a base for the team to attack. That boy is talented. Can pass, has vision and his off ball movement is good.

It’s just his small physique. If he can bulk up I’m certain Ole will give him minutes next season to prove himself.

Hannibal Mejbri is more of an 8 and 10. He’s young too and maybe by the end of next season he’ll get some minutes in the first team.

James Garner, I think, is more like Scot McTom. He isn’t that comfortable playing CDM. And he isn’t that strong yet too.

I just hope talented youth players make it to the first team and make it there. It’s been a while we had that. A long while.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 1:11pm On Jul 02, 2020
Afrodoc, We let Ramazani go. It was very shocking when i heard that because i know he is quite talented. Do you think we will be buying him back for top dollars in a few years time?

Maybe but i don't think so. I never saw that higher intelligence from him. He is fast and tricky but with Rashford, Martial, Greenwood, Chong and hopefully Sancho coming in there just enough room for more youth wingers at the moment (unless it is another next level talent like Greenwood)

Levitt's style reminds me of Paul Scholes. Garner was the CDM for the youth teams and more like Carrick than McTominay. The reason he isn't comfortable playing CDM for the senior is that lack of strength that you mentioned.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 2:16pm On Jul 02, 2020
Abeg Ole and Co should feed Levitt,Garner and the likes the same stuff they fed Mason during this break abeg..... clearly there is talent in our youth but their physique is hindering them a shot at the top level so far. This should be one of the major reasons Gomes never got game time in the Snr team.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Ravioli(m): 2:38pm On Jul 02, 2020
Interesting that Man Utd have kept 23 clean sheets in all comps this season - only PSG in Europe’s top leagues have kept more than that.

Dean Henderson: “I’m a young lad, I’m working hard, I’m a fan of the club [Manchester United ], and I want to play and hopefully have a career at Man United like de Gea has.” [TV3]

Dean Henderson on David de Gea: “The fans have to remember what he’s done for the last 9 years. He’s been phenomenal. He’s probably been the best player at Manchester United in that period. He should get another opportunity.”
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Ravioli(m): 2:43pm On Jul 02, 2020
Grealish talk getting stronger and stronger. Was definitely a priority when they thought Pogba was going. But now they see him as too good an option to ignore.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Ravioli(m): 2:46pm On Jul 02, 2020
Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho says he would not swap Giovani Lo Celso for Bruno Fernandes after Spurs missed out on the Portuguese midfielder last summer.

Okay. Thanks a lot for your opinion.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 2:49pm On Jul 02, 2020
Westham reportedly bid just £20 million for Bruno Fernandes in 2018. Sky Sports reported how it would not have taken much more for Sporting to accept, having been in financial trouble at the time.
We would say Fernandes probably had a very lucky escape there, or he would be playing for David Moyes right now.


Tough.

Lingard, Marcus, MacSauce just signed a new 5yrs deal, arguably Pogba, Mason, Pereira arguably also.......

Ya, his stocks might not be high now and rightly so, but he's been in the first team for years now and earned himself a spot.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Ravioli(m): 5:22pm On Jul 02, 2020
Journalist: "Zlatan, do you think Antonio Rudiger can stop Bruno Fernandes?"

Zlatan Ibrahimovic: "Yes he can stop Bruno after the match to take a picture with him.”

Like Doc predicts, I expect Dalot to seek a Move to another League next Season, on loan or permanently.

He's not good enough to be a Starter at United at the moment. AWB has locked down the Position, and it's gonna be for long.

I wish he stays, fights and keeps developing. He's a kinda Player I like a lot, and I want him succeeding at United.
