Probably because he was a big part of that run they went on alongside the more obvious candidates Fernandes and Rashford.

Hes not flashy or particularly outstanding in the more creative aspects so its easy to see why people dont value that sort of player but hes the sort of player thats handy to have around and for United, who lacked that more defensively minded midfielder it made sense. McTominay has made him more redundant to them now though as has Fred’s improvement so I think he will be gone in the summer if they can move him.

If we didnt have Ngolo Kante or signed Bakayoko he would of remained here as Antonio Conte initially wanted, although even with Bakayoko’s arrival he still wanted to keep him, which I think based on how well he and Kante played the previous season, it was a move that although it turned out well in terms of him not replicating those levels for United that season, wasnt exactly a huge win for us either as Drinkwater and Bakayoko were terrible buys.

United dont have a similar approach to renewing older players like as we do. In fact not a lot do. We are one of a few who are extremely strict with regards to this although we renewed David Luiz for 2 seasons and offered Willian 2. 

YEah thats true but its been evident he aint even half the player he used to be. I can tell you they are livid at redcafe lmao.

Man, we have a pretty brutal run in as well. West Ham, Arse, and Leicester all in a row I think. Plus a couple of teams that may be super desperate for points to stay up. Sprinkle in some massive cup games and CL and I’m not sure we’re anywhere near favorites for top 4. 

We 100% have to win those top 4 head to heads and also not pull a typical Chelsea in between and drop silly points to sides like WBA, Fulham, or Villa.

It would be pretty inexcusable to miss out on top 4 to a Liverpool side who have been without a starting CB for months and went on a historically poor run, a Leicester side who have also been ravaged by injury to some of their best players, West Ham who have maybe 1 player who makes our starting XI, and fucking Mourinho and his horrific football carried by 2 players.
