Where would he play for united? His best quality is getting in the box. Don’t really see what he adds to united apart from squad depth. Won’t be a starter in this midfield.
They’re just hungry for a transfer. He’s not improving the first team. Sad buy.
 
He's obviously off based on his managers comments.. No one else being linked for him. It really seems to be us getting him.
 
Do you think he is of much better quality than Pereira, Lingard, old Mata?
Mate, he is miles better than any of them. He's a brilliant player who could easily play in our first eleven too. He was set to go to Real Madrid but theyve got financial issues.

I know his qualities, it was a rhetorical question for the PSV fan.

Zidane nixed his move to RM, not financial issues. Perez wanted him.
 
if he comes in, can we assume that it means a DIAMOND MIDFIELD...at that age, with his reputation, can't see him accepting a sub role
 
Ziyech is better than him and would actually walk into our first team, rather than squad player. I don't get the club at times.

Squad depth is all and good, but i want someone pushing the first team, rather than being comfortably worse. He is closer to Fred, McTom and Mata from his level than Pogba or Bruno

They dont play the same position

Think that make us a bit one dimensional. Our full backs don't give us much width and a diamond makes us too predictable.

He plays a completely different position/role.
 
We don't need to improve on Bruno or Pogba, but the midfield definitely needs cover. I don't understand how you can be disappointed with this.

Oh maybe because I am Dutch, have ajax season ticket holders as friends and have watched their team a few times live. I have a clear opinion on him but I am too lazy for a writeup. Again, I will be proven right over time soon enough. Easy.

Note also how two other dutch posters in this thread have been lukewarm about his position in our team.

Ziyech is 4 years older than DVB and is significantly worse than Sancho for the same position.

DVB for his position is much better than Ziyech was at the same age.

He's better than the first 3 you've mentioned.
 
I am not sure about him for us. I think he would end up mostly an understudy for Pogba or Bruno, which is fine as long as we are upgrading our first team as well, but otherwise...
