Guido Rodriguez | linked with an actual DM shock! Did ETH lie? Is murtough caving in to fan sentiment? Tune in for next installment | Percentile watch

If you said midfield overhaul a year back we'd have though of all sorts of sexy new toys. Instead were linked with a 28 old nobody has heard of.
Wikipedia doesnt even have a write up about his time at Betis or how much he moved there for.
 
I don't know anything about him but this signing at least on the surface is what the club should be aiming for. He's cheap, won't demand huge wages, fills a position we desperately need. This would indicate our scouts have done some actual work for once rather than biting any time another big club offers us one of their rejects or ETH decides to go through his contacts list because we don't have any other ideas.
 
If Jonas Giæver rate him that high I am all in. He actually watched every game and that’s a fact.
 
All this is ploy for fans to get fedup and say we better sign no one than these dross
 
I think we are preparing to let go of De Jong. I wouldn't mind this guy and Tielemans, could be like Alvarez and Gravenbach
 
Nobody else has picked up the story, probably not happening. It makes sense because why would we buy a DM?! Crazy talk...
 
Collateral players who run with some physicality

United biggest problem is the tiny players with zero work rate which don’t track back
 
You're an expert on him, watched him regularly?
I never claimed that, watch him for Argentina quite a bit as I follow them. He is just a defensive option for them to bring on for Paredes to see out games. He is someone Palace or Everton should look at
 
Never heard of him. Does he come with an attitude problem? Tends to be a criteria now for us.
 
Serious question for those who may know more than me, would this dude and Rabiot be a coherent CM partnership?
 
anyone got any "Chelsea in for Guido Rodriguez" links, seems any players we glance at they do to
 
Rodriguez as the DM, Eriksen as the holding player and VDB ahead of them to link the attack. dare I saw that might be a competent midfield.
 
Will our fanbase complain about everybody who isn’t some wonder kid or midfield superstar?
 
If he is an out and out DM, destroyer type. He could bring the best out of Erikson and Fernandes. Get the balance right.
 
Murtough: feck it I am going to buy a CDM
ETH [murmur]: frenkie...
 
He wears #21 for Betis. FDJ, Martinez, Eriksen and now this guy: Is shirt #21 is the new recruitment criteria?
 
It really does look like they have finally realised how shit McFred are.
 
Does this mean we go 4-3-3 with a single pivot?
 
This plus Rabiot tells me FDJ has said feck off or we've decided to walk away. No way do we sign 3 midfielders (plus Eriksen) unless ETH has seen the light and decided McFred need to go.
 


Yeah feck it, he can actually stop a ball from completely evading our midfield.
