I think the 3 are achievable ( Probably not likely ) if we move on the likes if Lingard and De Gea , Dalot etc finding Buyers is the problem . I think the 3 of them would be pretty close to a perfect summer.
Eduardo Camavinga / signs for Real Madrid

Buyers aren’t the problem; the price would be. If we drag our heels over fees, we’ll be stuck with a whole team of players we don’t want
He has one year left on his contract so i can't imagine Rennes getting any more than 50m euros for the young lad. Put him on a 5 yr contract and that is a very wise investment on United's part. We just need to jump ahead of PSG for him and give him the ability to see a future playing for United. Again, i think a lot will depend on the future of Pogba or DvB for the kid to see his way into the midfield.
Is all this actually going to happen? Sancho, Varane and Camavinga in this window?
This feels like a summer window we didn't have in quite a while.
I don't know what to say... This has been too much news for today.
If we get Sancho, Varane and Camavinga in one window I will carve a statue of John Murtough with my dried Jizz.
Varane is next…this lad needs to wait his turn.
Be still my beating heart …
Now that is dedication.
and a shit load of vasoline
Never ever seen Camavinga play but have decided that this is the thread I will camp in this summer.

Dream window.
Then you add Heaton to thatIs all this actually going to happen? Sancho, Varane and Camavinga in this window?
now that would be wank worthy
Looks like a fantastic prospect. I’m just not convinced based on his attributes that he’s the player we need.
Tchoumeni from Monaco would be the perfect solution if we are keeping Pogba
If we are selling Pogba, then One of Grealish / Locatelli / Saul / Goretzka / Carmavinga would be a dream.

He is more in Pogba mould than the CDM we need
Tchoumeni from Monaco is what we need
When has that ever stopped us?
disagree....he's much more defensive minded than Pogba and much more of a box to box player
admit i've never seen Tchoumeni play but watching his highlight video he seems much more like Pogba than Camavinga in terms of style of play and body shape
Camping here now Sancho is done.

This is the stuff of real hardcore muppets. Get in there Eduardo!
This is on like Donkey Kong. I’ve a feeling Pogba is probably going to go to PSG this summer if they make a decent offer. This transfer would soften the blow. It’ll be almost surreal to watch this lad getting blooded in over the season. We have a muppet for a DOF
This transfer thread doesn't become real until Lyon, PSG and Bordeaux fans get involved talking about deadlines, sticking up for Rennes and the superiority of Ligue 1 and PSG like we had with the BDL in the Sancho thread.
He’s Muslim.
What do you think of this one? Crazy window if we get Sancho and Camavinga! The stuff of football manager legend
All the attributes and descriptions about him seem very Patrick Vieira like, which is someone we could do with. Sack off the quest for a pure DM and have someone who’s primarily box to box but does DM things well enough.
Box to box who can attack and defend is what Ole wants to play. I think he’s already better on the ball than McT so he should get games as the season goes on. I’m not as sure about the pressing and physical side. He’s still only 18 but if Fabregas could do it at 16 I think Camavinga will be fine, especially at home against the teams that sit back and park the bus. He can already spread play deliciously and set a solid tempo.
Come again?

Yeah definitely feels like a midfielder who can offer us something in both a defensive and offensive sense as well

Without wanting to be a party pooper, I’ve seen this all too many times and I must say that I’m not particularly excited by any of it. Names don’t excite me anymore, and I must confess, that my fear of these players not having the impact hoped/expected is greater than any expectation I have of them to elevate us.
I don’t think what is stopping us from winning the league is as simple as our players not being good enough, and I also feel that for all their highlight reels, the likes of Sancho, Camavinga and Varane in real terms are not going to be the same players we have seen elsewhere. Too many times over the years have what seemed to be great summers turn into more disappointing and expensive players added. As individuals, I don’t think those players are good enough to elevate us. In a balanced team playing to everyone’s strengths - of course, they have plenty of quality and I’d be far more optimistic. But I don’t expect we just take Sancho from Dortmund, drop him on our right wing (which I still maintain is not as strong as the left for him) and get the same performances. They are not players that will win us enough games on their own, and as a unit, I don’t think we are good enough to get the best that they can offer froDon’t think it’s as simple as that. Camavinga is talented, but quite young still, and already, the debate is raging about just where and what role he can have in our midfield, because there is no obvious idea of what we’re doing and how his qualities will enhance it.
I’m quite indifferent about the market. The only individual ‘on the market’ who could get me excited this summer would be Haaland if we were to sign him, as I just think he is such a goal machine that he is likely to simply score enough goals regardless of how we play to win us more football matches and give us a chance. Other than that, I reached a point last season where I said that no matter who we sign in the summer I’m not confident of them doing enough to get us over the line.
For me, I’d be much more optimistic if we went back to basics and built a unit that compliments each other first, and THEN started to look at improving the quality. We signed VDB, who is not a bad player, yet we don’t know what to do with him. To me, Paul Pogba is one of the best midfielders in the world yet even with him, you have come to the point where you have lost faith. If we can go to wanting him, the most expensive midfielder ever to leave, a World Cup winner, then the likes of Sancho are not guaranteed anything either. These players are all just talent like Pogba. Likely to be player in positions that don’t optimise them and with teammates that don’t optimise them. I just don’t think we know what we are doing, or if we do, then what we are doing isn’t good enough. Cup final against Villarreal just showed what organisation vs lack of ideas looked like. An XI of far superior players looked like they had no clue, where a battling and tackling midfielder managed to be our standout player, despite the fact that we had the fecking ball all game.
I'd be more excited about this signing than Sancho if it happens
He won't be able to once the statues up mate.
Only if you want a purely defensive midfielder like an Ndidi type, which I dont personally. I find the Pogba comparisons lazy. Could call them box to box but Pogba has much better vision and strength, Camavinga is already much better defensively breaking up play and reading the game. Think he is more like Edgar Davids in style, technically good but all about energy, think the premiership is the perfect league for him to shine in. For a teenager in the last year of his contract £40-55m is a pretty high fee but there are really only a couple of viable options considerably cheaper than that so its kind of irrelevant in the grand scheme of who we sign this summer.
He may take time to settle in an dshine, young, new culture, step up to a huge club etc etc....but Ive full confidence in a season or two he will be an absolutely huge player for us. One reason for that, everything I have read about him or from him, he looks to have a fantastic attitude, must buy for me
He still got puberty to go through. Shoulders will broaden a bit soon enough.I hope we do something about the size of his head
