Do United need a RW.

Absolutely. The only one we have is Amad and he barely has any first team experience. Anybody else that plays there isn't in their best position. I think RW should be the second priority after a midfielder.
 
We need a goal scorer to replace Ronaldo first and foremost. But a new right-winger wouldn't hurt, would it? We also need a CM. Actually, make that two CMs. And a CB, we for sure need one of those. And a RB. And a LB. And possibly a new keeper. And a new roof. And... meh, you get the picture.

A goal scoring right winger ideally. Sancho is more of an assister so we really need Ronaldo, Bruno and the RW to score goals. It’s why Greenwood has been such a loss.
 
Sancho and Amad can play on the right so it’s likely very low on our list of priorities.
 
Yes, but its behind CM/DM/CF in the priority order. Arguably we need to sort out RB first too.
 
We have a few players who can RW so seems a bit daft to get one when other area's need addressing first and foremost.
 
What is the philosophy Man Utd will move towards from next season onwards?
If is really a modern high intensity press, fullbacks an dm are surely the prority.
 
Just play Sancho and Amad there. Our budget is way too small.

Who are these players?
Sancho favours the left, Rashy is dreadful over there, Greenwood done, Mata leaving, lingard leaving etc

I believe ETH will give Amad and possibly even Pellistri an extended look there during pre season with a view to integrating them. The likelihood is that we won't invest money there this window as the other needs are far more pressing.
 
No. We have Sancho there. And Amad and Elanga as backup. Rashford and Martial will play on the left.
And.....who knows what will happen with that women beating cnut
 
I think we will see Bruno play there a lot next year. He is NOT a midfielder. Not even close. But I expect to see our front 3 more often than not be Bruno, CR7 and Sancho with Rashford (hopeully fining his form and confidence) rotating in. I don't really think we will see a lot of Elanga. Problem is, none of the players mentioned are left footed. So I'd like to see a left footed attacker come in and if they are good enough to crack the starting 11, even better. i just don't think it's a necessity right now...
 
Goalscoring RW could be somewhat savior, if ETH decides Ronaldo stays and no additional striker coming.

Cavani & Greenwood pretty much gone and they were portrayed as reliable goal source. Are we trusting Rash & Tony 100% ?
 
Oh. This team needs one, being one of the youngster stepping up considerably or we recruit a ready hand.
None of our current senior players have impressed there for us. Ronaldo can play the role but at this stage of his career, do we think it’ll be a good idea? I don’t think it is, I’d rather have him closer to the goal mouth.
We can all remember with Greenwood and incompetent James the way we played better as a team. One thing to get from that stint AWB looked a slightly competent footballer.
 
Yes, as both Elanga and Sancho are much better on the left than right could do with 2 in all honesty (unless ETH has faith in Amad)
 
We have lost the most talented young right sided attacker in Europe or at least one of them. We have replaced him with a player who currently looks nowhere near good enough.

I would say yes.

An inform Rashford can be a very good player at LW with some proper coaching. Then start Sancho on the right (where Rashford is useless and Sancho less useless) until we can afford to replace him or move him centrally/LW.

RW is prio 5 atm. We need to fix our midfield and leaky defence.

Sancho, Rashford, Elanga, Amad can all play there.

Ten Hag isn't going to get the team he wants in one window. There's going to have to be a compromise this season as we have other more pressing needs.
 
I don't understand the arguments that we don't need one. Pellestri and Diallo? Please, the latter couldn't even get playing time for Rangers.

All top teams have a good or multiple good RW, we haven't had one since Nani (barring Mason's brief cameo). It's no surprise to me our attack has looked so crap in that time period.

Like who are people expecting to play there next season? Sancho who's rubbish there? Elanga? No point having the ball if your attackers can't do crap with it. In my opinion the order of priority would be DM and RW (no one currently), and then CM and Striker where we at least have decent options.
 
No. Not sure if I can post this, but I think Greenwood will have the case dismissed due to lack of evidence. Granted he’s going to be subject to huge abuse at away grounds, but he has shown himself quite capable ob the right.

I "could" play there, but would be useless.
Rashy has repeatedly shown he's nowhere near as effective there as on the right. And we're not talking Sancho levels of what is effective either. He's simply minimal threat.

Amad hasn't shown he can do much yet, so I've no idea why he's in some people's thoughts as a genuine option.
 
A goal scoring right sided attacker is desperately needed and although I don’t want to get into the whole thing it shows what a massive loss Greenwood has been, a left footed goal scorer who plays from the right or centrally and even though he wasn’t the finished article they’re aren’t many players like him out there.

We need two midfielders and a centre back but I’d say right wing is a priority area too, I’d say those are the four priorities for us seeing as worst came to worst Rashford and Martial could be used up top (not that I ever want to see that) and Laird and Williams can play right back so I’d say right wing is one of our four priority areas.
 
Looking at all the CBs we're being linked with, fair chance we go with three at the back and won't bother with wide attackers next season.

That is a possibility, but then we also don’t have the wingbacks for that system either. Has Ten Hag ever played 3atb in his career?
 
Ideally yes. Sadly our squad is terrible in so many areas that this is low on the list of priorities because we need a whole new first team essentially and we're on a very tight budget

You couldn’t. The ones I mention can.
 
We have a few players leaving or futures not looking good that can play on the right in Linhard, Greenwood and Mata.

Even so we have a LOT of wide options at the club currentyly Sancho, Rahford, Elanga, Amad, Pellestri, Garnacho, Chong, Hannibal, Shoetire.

That is nine players, some of which are more versatile, but essentially for two positions, we are stacked. The problem is seven of the nine seem to prefer playing on the left, also if Ten nHag is looking at inverted wingers, only CHong and Garnacho are left footed, so either way we only have two options really on the right if you forget Sancho......and they are all very young and inexperienced.

For me we DO need a right winger, but what we have to do first is loan out at last a couple of these players and sell a couple as well before buying a new option there.....and that is why I would sell Rashford.

Loan SHoetire and Pellestri
Sell Chong and Rashford
Hannibal is more for the midfield

For me that provides a virtual zero spend on new options. Rashford I would expect to raise £50m+ and not many right wingers in the world cost more than that or you maybe have Dembele on a free OR the young Derby winger on a free to replace Choong, then westill have possibly three options on each side:

Left: SAncho, ELanga, Garnacho
Right: New signing, Amad, Derby youngster free possibly

Rashy isn't very good there. Are you disagreeing with that?

Its not his best position, but he wouldn't be my first choice in that role (Sancho would). However, he's better at RW than he is in central midfield which is why RW isn't high on my list of priority signings.
 
Of course we do. But we also need a striker, so we could also get by with just Darwin, or just Antony for example.
 
It just dont make sense how sancho was brought based on his performances on the right wing for dortmund and now he is being completely ruled out as an option for united there
 
Lets see. We need a RB, LB, 2xCB, DM, CM, AM, LW, extra ST. Oh yes and a RW

Sancho better on the right, Amad couldn’t even get starts for Rangers in the SPL. Amad should NOT be second choice RW. And if Sancho plays right, that means we have to endure more of Rashford on the left. I’d rather sh1t in my hands and clap than see that
