I agree, we have always been a team with flair not just efficiency, Nani is our best flair player and with a stronger midfield we wont have to leave him out of any big games.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!

Stop lying.
I believed that until I saw Micky Phelan on the list.
We will if he's not playing well.
Or if we're playing Chelsea and Fergie wants to give Valencia another chance to run rings around Ashley Cole, without dropping our best player the last time we came up against them (Park)
I thought Giggs was our best player last time we played Chelsea, but I was looking at it from the perspective of if all are in form I think Nani's creativity and goal threat mean he starts.
He's just scored a Nani type of goal for England 5 minutes after he was introduced into the team.
That can't be good for United. That will bump his price a bit.
Maybe. On the other hand he scored against the Swiss (EPL mid level club standard) not Barcelona or Spain.
Nothing should change in terms of price, unless some team decides to join in the bidding.
I don't know whether I'm just missing another unfunny joke but he's been in good form for England since he's been given his chance this season, this isn't anything different and won't really have any impact. He'd already shown he can make the difference at this level.
The fee is probably agreed already anyway.
GOod player, overhyped, typically.
Is he going to United?
Is he going to United?
He is so weak in duel... Shame we didn't see him on the left wing.
i hoep we sign him
He'd probably be a decent signing for United, you dont really have a left winger at the moment. Still i dont think he's quite at the required level.
i've decided that i want him to sign
I think he is absolutely at the level. Think Antonio Valencia.
With Young there is room for improvement, and Fergie is the man that will turn him into one of the countries' best players
N'Zogbia is much better player I think, on same position... for considerably less money.
he is not really that young either, 27.....
Who do you support FV?
He's 26 in July
Kilmarnock.
He definitely livened England's attack up today, but it was virtually comatose in the first half, nothing has changed one way or the other, I suspect his signing will be announced on Monday.
Completely changed the game today, MOTM having only played 45 minutes. Still, the England performance was very poor so he had to make a difference really.
Knowing the current transfer Market anything can hike prices now a days.
I like that he doesn't look out of his depth in international games
could very well be the case, not rulling him out, i just have my doubts. If the price is right he's a worthy gamble.
Kilmarnock FC
his name doth deceive
he's actually 25!
That
he's decent,
but while they aren't exactly carbon-copies positionally....affelay can play wide and through the middle like young.
though affelay is slower than young, affelay is streets ahead technically.
Affelay went for 2 million....young 16 million?
The market never makes sense for english players.

Affelay was out of contract in 6 months.......Young is out of contract in 12 months.
Value in the market?
Young is a good player. He's no Ronaldo or Messi, but he can go past players and create space for others - he also links up with other players on the team. You may have realised that SAF is preferring this kind of player recently. They may not be amazing stand-out players, but the fact that they link up means the team plays better and is better than the sum of its parts.
I think he would make our team better.
I think he would make our team better.
I know, but that doesn't mean one should be 8x the price.
If we're looking only for value, we should be in for lads like affelay. Great fecking player, him. "wasted" at barca, would easily play loads for us.
edited for you. agreed.
Isn`t Afellay`s best position Rooney`s best position?
He said he'd sort out his future after the England match, I suspect this will be a very quick bit of business, I base this mostly off the fact that just about every journo says he'll join us and because I don't want him to, the latter making it almost certain he will.
Whys that if you dont mind me asking?

I think if he does join you will be pleasently surprised.He has plenty of room for improvement.
Capello has just said that he didn't start Young because wing is not his position.
Is he an idiot?
