Has anyone actually watched him play? What type of defender is he? Does he possess the pace we need next to Martinez? I haven't been very impressed from the YT videos I've watched.

I definitely think a few of them thought they were going to get their 'Leicester' moment and we'd blow £80m on him like we did for Maguire, which they could then use to laugh at us whenever they felt like it.
Wonder if that means theyl wait one season before unsettling him.
Don't let that Everton journalist see this.
Branthwaite, generational he is.
It’s just bizarre.
Any club is well within their right to value a player as they please. If Everton rate Branthwaite as worth 70-80m for them, fair fecks. Maybe United rate McTominay at 40m, but if no-one else does, you either take the best offer you have, else you delight in keeping the player.
Fulham for example are absolutely in their right to offer 20m for McTominay and if it’s rejected decide they are better off spending 25m on Kalvin Phillips.
This is a new level of stupidity. What goes through their heads?
Anyway, hugely pleased with this signing. City supporting colleague was making fun of us even trying to sign him on Monday... Curiously, very quiet today.
this has cheered me up no end

Yoro looks like he'll become a beast of a player. He's younger but he already looks more complete than Braithwaite, a really good signing. I hope he gets the backing and time to adjust as his price tag will be thrown at him whenever he makes a mistake. Yoro and Licha, what a partnership in prospect!
That cracked me up
So we get the best defensive talent ahead of Real Madrid AND piss of Evertonians at the same time? Just when you thought things could not get better
Probs but I bet we got cleverer contracts now….you want - you will pay
This is absolutely unhingedtruly embarrassing stuff
The saltiness in that article is incredible.
“Rather than risk his development by stepping into the potentially toxic environment of United, Branthwaite’s progression would be better served staying put for another year at least and then after that there’s the lure of the Blues’ magnificent new stadium on the Mersey waterfront over the faded glories of Old Trafford and its leaky roof”
We sign one of the most promising CB's in Europe. Liverpool sign John Heitinga. Things are getting back to normal.
it's the randomness of "this pisses off Evertonians" being the icing on the cake that really makes it for me. Just so, so weird.
Think the reporter is looking to use our name to drum up views and followers on his account. Easiest way to do it is by being controversial to United supporters and we always respond.
I hope so.
I was Jarrad in but I am not that sure now. It almost like evertonians wanted him out
It's possible that should we have De Ligt and Martinez at CB, that Yoro will get games interchangably at CB and full-back as and when injuries/rotations occur. This could be why Eth is comfortable letting AWB go. Yoro can operate similar to how Gvardiol operates as a CB at full-back.
From a RM forum: „We didn’t miss out on Yoro, he missed out on Real Madrid“.
Real won't even pay €50m to Lille, what makes you think they could afford him when he is at United?
Because they won't have the same transfer budget every season
Liverpool fans on Rawk are trying to convince each other that Quansah is better.
Tbf that magnificent new stadium on the Mersey waterfront will be a lovely distraction from the grim reality of being stuck in the Championship
I'd imagine Romano simply highlighted the fixed amount, while Ornstein highlighted the max package of the deal.So Romano reckons this is a 42M transfer, and Ornstein says its 52M. Either way I'm happy, I really didnt think we would beat Real Madrid to this. Still shocked.
And
Romano said it's 42m (€50m) fixed and 10m (€12m) in add-ons (€5m easy, €7m difficult), so that checks out.
Wtf.. is the price, I've read €50 .million. not £50 million.. there's a difference between the two..So Romano reckons this is a 42M transfer, and Ornstein says its 52M. Either way I'm happy, I really didnt think we would beat Real Madrid to this. Still shocked.
And
Nature is healing.
Am I living in a simulation? Are Everton fans genuinely annoyed at the fact we didn't overpay for their starboy?
Take it other clubs aren't used to us not being taken to the cleaners with transfers now.

We still pay 50-70m regardless when and how.
But It won't matter if he turns out as our next Rio, though.
"You're doing a great job, son!!"Played more minutes than Garnacho last season
Stay on pal, in a year or 2 you can play in a nice new stadium. Erm still for a team that have won 1 trophy in living memory of anyone under about 45, but erm...still
