In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) get the depressing job of reviewing United's 3-0 loss at Old Trafford to Liverpool. They discuss what went wrong, Casemiro's day to forget, and the pressure now on Erik Ten Hag. They also take some time to give McTominay a proper farewell, and give their overall thoughts on the Summer Transfer Window.
Please please please get this guy.
Such a wonderful player to watch. Think he has a really big future ahead of him. Would love us to sign him this summer. He covers a lot of positions but will ultimately be a creative, ball carrying midfielder I believe. Could easily see him being the heir to Bruno.
This summer signing young talent that is on the verge of their next big evolution is surely the priority. Manchester United makes stars, rather than buys them….or so it used to be.
Branthwaite, Yoro, Todibo, Silva, Kerkez, Neves, Doue, Joao Gomes, Cherki, Zirkee, Omorodion…..these are the profile of player I think we should be after. Some are obvious, others less so. I also like Antonee Robinson from Fulham but he’d likely be more expensive than I think we can commit to a LB at this point.
Here’s hoping Ashworth, Wilcox and Berrada come bundled with a host of promising and less obvious targets, focusing both on young talents with high potential and undervalued players identified by their data sets. Let’s also hope our scouting team has been busy and will be listened to. No more Ten Hag “he’s played for me before bollocks” with De Ligt and De Jong. This is when the new structure and human capital investment starts to show its worth. Not I said “start”, because this will take several windows.

But Doue want that?
Which of those do you think we are capable of signing this summer if we can make some money from sales
Capable?
Branthwaite, Doue, Zirkee, Kerkez, and Todibo.
With sales, all attainable.
The one we NEED to sign is Neves. But I think we are more likely to get a cut price option, like Amrabat, sadly. Neves is going to cost 85m most likely. Or 100m with better payment terms. We’d have to shift some serious bodies to make that happen.
I think Neves will come if Saudi offer is 40 million plus for Casemiro otherwise I can’t see it sadly
Honestly wouldn't mind signing him and loaning him back again for another year, I think he won't get enough time if he comes here with the amount of games bruno plays and I feel like he should keep starting every week to improve. But with our financial situation I don't know if we can afford to loan him if we need to fill the squad with quality players.
Na na na na na na na....... Worth signing for the song alone.He's hardly played this year has he not? I think Doue is well ahead of him, hard to argue Ben Seghir will be better with such a little sample size this year.
Should go for him now Olise going to Bayern, there is no chance PSG will loan us Simons and can't see Williams as a realistic option either
But he would get more thanenough game time on either flank. We are also likely to be pretty short in cm, couple of young midfielders maybe called up to the squad but he wouldprobably get games in Mainoos position at times.
I saw a similar opinion on anArsenal fan forum even saying should let him go somewhere else and monitor him.
Dont think people are aware how talented his guy is, especially on the Arsenal forum....he will be worth 3x his supposed current fee in a couple of years poentially
Yeah we should definitely try and get him now if there is an opportunity to do that
I want us to bring him in
We have to shift Antony and get this kid in, he's going to be special.
agreed...would be a fantastic addition at a younger age
How much would he cost and how good is he in reality?
I've seen him hovering around the top in most lists listing the top prospects and is possibly even more highly rated than camavinga was, have no idea about the veracity of it though.

Not watching him much beside couples YT comp but the talents is there with all technicall and athletics aspect. Young playing in a variety of roles, could be useful for our squad untill improve and establish himself in a more define role later on. Have to buy in the some almost surenfire talents for now and future.
They will be de-light-ed to have our money...
Rumors about de Ligt, Coman, Gnabry, Goretzka being available. That would generate a lot of cash on top of their budget. Those four also earn a combined €60 to 70m.
What a summer that would be for Bayern. Shifting 4 players that I don't believe are the required level, to bring in some of the top young stars.
this kid would probably cost less than the 60m release clause Nico Williams has but it shows what value you can get for both players
out of the players we're supposedly in talks with, this one's the most exciting personally
Wastalkofbeing available around £30m butall these rumours of teams being keen think price will go up. Think gettingplenty of game time in 18months whatever the fee goes up to he willbe spoke as a bargain. Bayern are oneof only a handful of clubs lack of game time could be a problem. Little doubthe would bea star here....perfect Greenwood replacement for me
There doesn’t seem to be any more links with us in the last month or so. Doesn’t seem to be happening
Fix your keypad please
ITS THE PHONE
Then there is also Palinha that they seemingly desperately want to sign.
If Williams release clause is really only 60m it is an absolute no brainer
that's what has been mentioned during the euros and his link with Barcelona
That would be the most exciting transfer in a long time. I doubt we are interested though, we have 3 wingers we need to get sold first
He is already on high wages and certainly looking for an increase. He is also settle in in Bilbao. I would expecxt it to be Barca, if/when he leaves.
Back to Doue: Bayern seems to be interested.
If we're truly going to change how we operate as a club, these are the types of players we have to go all out for. Hopefully he isn't dreaming of Madrid.
Barca hardly have the money unless they sell a few big names. And since we're the specialist for high, inflated salaries, we're perfect for him. Nothing against Bilbao but there is no way he will remain there for too long, he's just too good
Yes, I also think that he will leave at some point. But his family's connection to Bilbao is very close and special.
the two clubs who've been linked with this kid so far this summer are also both clubs that want to move out current players in those roles who have not been productive or greenwood's situation
i just want guys on the wing so just fecking want to run at defenders with some skill and pace...put defenders on their heels which antony and sancho don't and can't do
Are there any links to United?
Or are we all just hoping there is?
Looks a good prospect who should be in our thinking.

See, when Chelsea sign this many, some are 17, some seem obviously selected with the idea they will start, some “could” become starters or fill roles until they move on to start somewhere else if they dont make it. I can see our plan.
But Simons, Olise, Musiala, Desire etc are all locked in expecting to start, and they will all be wanting starter wages, And that’s assuming they can even move on guys like Sane and Koman.
I will be interested to see how they navigate this.
Vincent kompany already looking an astute hiring though. People want to work with him, and players seem to have an innate trust with anyone associated with Peps’ coaching tree.
