This signing confuses me. Would he be a starter? Seems like based on his role and attributes, he would compete with Kante? But if he were to play that LCM role, that means we are still lacking in end product from our midfield and only increasing the redundancy of defensive midfielders on the pitch. Seems like a 'Kovacic' type player.

That Argentina team were nothing but bottlers who couldn't handle the pressure put forth on them by the federation. Messi and Mascherano were the only ones who could. So many under performers. If anything, Messi dragged that team to three consecutive finals (WC 2014, Copa 2015, Copa 2016). You need luck in cup competitions and Argentina had zero. Only Messi. Dybala has looked horrid for the national side. With or without Messi. Messi also isn't the reason why Icardi isn't in the team. It's because of his ego and lifestyle/baggage. NO ONE likes him and his wife is hated in Argentina.

Defended the bloke but Higuain has no right playing. Giroud has what? 10 goals in 11 games in Europa?

Worse than Fred? Behave Jorginho has deserved criticism. Some justified and some unjustified.

Of course anything can happen, but what is more likely to happen? A one off win or another defeat/draw against a side we haven't beaten since 2013? Any rational person will chose the latter.

That is still atrocious when you consider how shit United have been during those years. Worse teams than us have gone there and won.

Round the time of the voting so makes sense. Hazard not being in there is a mockery. You have to shoe him in there somehow.

Our record at Old Trafford is atrocious. Last win was 2013 and we even lost there during our league title wins. I don't care how shit United are, they always up their game at home against us and we somehow always manage to crumble. I just hope for our sake Rudiger is fit. Can't stand the sight of Lukaku embarrassing Christensen again.

I disagree. I see nothing about his ability that will make him a top striker. Poor overall technical ability. Willing to revisit this thread in a couple years.

Rashford + Martial will burn Azpilicueta alive and Lukaku will bully Christensen back to grammar school. Smalling always keeps our strikers quite as well.

Costa created his own goals. 99% of Tammy's were penalties or crosses to him.

Giroud isn't good enough either.

You just have to hope this demoralises United for Sunday.

A player we should of arguably upgraded Pedro/Willian on in 2017. Smh

How utterly sad is it that be it Pedro or Willian for RW, we can say for absolute certainty they will have a bad game? They've needed upgrading since 2017.

He would. The intelligence of City's midfield and attackers in terms of decision making and off the ball movement is something to admire.

As things stand we remain 4th A point ahead of Arsenal 2 ahead of United

I have more faith in Tomori making here than Zouma to be honest. However if the transfer ban is lifted, we need a proven leader at the back.

He shouldn't be here sitting on the bench, he should be playing every week in a top league to further his development.

Still a massive risk and for that kind of money I would want proven quality. We are already relying on CHO and Pulisic for 'potential'.

Not unless he signs an extension, which I don't think he will.

Looks like VVD won the PFA Players' player of the year award. Has there ever been a time where a club's player won the PFA award two times in a row, yet that club won nothing those seasons?

Yes. Potential. We shouldn't be taking risks right now. This team needs proven quality. Felix for his own benefit should stay at Benfica a season or two more before making the jump.

I think we can beat Valencia. Don't trust the team playing Arsenal.

Premier league loan a must
