His only elite quality is progressing the ball forward quickly into space. He’s very poor with his back to goal centrally and in tight areas so I really struggle to understand how anyone thinks he can ever be a 10.

He will only ever be a wide player. Hopefully a decent one he can be exciting. If he doesn't fit the system he's fecked it seems.
I don't think he is an intelligent player. Even when playing in a system that suited his strengths he makes the wrong decisions too often for the position we are in. We cannot afford any passengers in the squad. If we get the right offer I think we should take it and hopefully get someone more suited to the system.
Guy is ready to be sold because a new manager dropped him for playing like shit.
And that’s a quality I think you’d find from a huge number of players. It’s essentially just saying “he dribbles forward” but his take on #’s are horrid so he’s not doing a ton once he progresses it
Is he great at this or is that a consequence of him being the player who Bruno plays into space regularly?
A player like Adama (whilst being rubbish at most things) is tremendous at progressing the ball because he can burst through challenges and break the lines constantly. I don't really see that from Garnacho.
He's a kick and run merchant.
I changed my mind. Sell him. For 70 mil I'd sell anyone on this squad. I hate this team. I would prefer to see 11 new faces next season. I am tired of these players. I dislike pretty much all of them
I’ve never seen such a terrible collection of footballers play for this club. Jesus Christ.
Agreed. Which is why I think we’re probably best shipping him out if we can get a good fee for him, and reinvesting in the positions we desperately need for Amorim’s attack to start functioning properly.
People watch how easily defenders deal with Garnacho and then throw a fit when it’s rumored we’d be willing to sell him. Boggles the mind.
He's also had an astonishing amount of games with us and he's hardly improved, I don't even get the idea he's suddenly going to get better, so we have to keep him or sell him for 80m
People look at age while refusing to look at minutes. Garnachos been a regular for 2 and a half years now. It’s not like he’s getting his feet wet at this level
depending on the price id understand selling. Could either be selling before the burst, or blow up in our face.
Yeah
Need to take the 40 m before Napoli watches this game. Dreadful in every aspect apart from running in a straight line with no one trying to stop him.
Could replace him easily for a player more suited. Negotiate and get rid.
As mentioned earlier with each passing match i think it has become more apparent that he will never have enough about him to be a Manutd attacker. Amad is the benchmark, he is no way close to his ability, technique, skill etc. Hell the likes of Dibling for Southampton looked a more assured and skillful player than him.
He isn’t as good as Amad and he doesn’t have the work rate either. I am not desperate to see him go but I can easily understand why people at the club might be thinking we can find better players with the money.
Now if we did sell him the money might get pissed away but it could also be a very good decision.
Get rid and use the money to buy Mbeumo.
That's my main worry.

He had a decent game today but compare him to Amad and that’s the level we need.
£60m… bring in two players that suit 3-4-3 or 3-4-2-1 especially LWB.

60 million (GBP) is fantastic business United ought to run to the bank with it.
Seen people say he has "world class" potential, as stated there are players around his age group that are miles ahead of him talent wise and game intelligence. Saying he's a good 20 year old is worthless when players from 19-22 all fall within the same category.

Amad is a 10. Garnacho isn’t to be honest
A straight swap for Mbuemo would be absolute shit
Possibly jumping to conclusions, but after that performance I would accept 45M.
Yeah for Brentford.
£60/70m and I’d say take it. Reminds of me of when fans were gushing over Januzaj, good player but not unsellable
That’s always the worry but I would expect the money would be spread around and on younger players rather than more Casemiro’s etc.
Januzaj had more ability IMO

Amad can play 10/winger and wingback because his technical level is really high. He’s also got the 1v1 acceleration to beat his man by putting them off balance and dragging the ball with him.
Garnacho is a good ball carrier and works hard running usually but £60m and I’d see and invest in a 10 and LWB or 10 and CM.
I'm not sure what amad is rubbish at, but what you described for Garnacho was the same situation as Rashford for 22/23.
Looked an unbelievable player when he burst onto the scene but defenders seem to deal with him quite comfortably now. Such a shame. That coupled with the new formation with the new manager, could very well result in him playing elsewhere.
Because he's a one trick pony.
I wouldn’t be opposed to selling Garnacho. But I also think he can be a really top player in a team that wants an out and out winger
I also think having not played inside the pitch much he is going to stuggle at first as opposed to Amad who played most of his career there.
As poor as Garnacho was he should have scored and had an assist today. I think he can adapt to the role given time
Anything north of 50M Pounds we should snatch their hands off. If you look at the world where young players in around his age, most of them are far more refined, skillfull and has alot more to their game as compared to him. He just does not have any exceptional quality, his pace is average, his physicality, stamina and workrate poor, his dribbling and close control is awful, his shooting technique is very sketchy and he seems to miss sitters every match.
