Then United need to get the old dutch guard to get on to him and sway him to us. We've got a few good ones there :drool:
I am sure Blind is passionate telling De Ligt about how wonderful it is to play possession football with Smalling Jones Rojo Valencia and Young.
 
I really hope he picks his next club well, because he has the chance to become an absolutely legendary defender

Not saying that we're the right destination but Barcelona would be a terrible decision imo.
 
Seeing this thread constantly bumped.. :lol: he would never join us with suitors like Barca interested. Anyway we have Smalling, Jones and Rojo tied down long term. :drool:
 
Maybe get the ajax manager in just to suck him in. Then sack the manager in December if he isn't good enough :rolleyes:
 
I won't be surprised if he joins Liverpool
 
How about buying him and loaning him back? Be frank with the kid, tell him we're a mess right now and we'll come back for him later.
What if we're a mess for unforeseeable future? Signing a player for big fee a good wage just to loan him for the length of his contract?
 
Schooled by Llorente.
 
I was thinking of a way that would make Ajax more amenable and later doesn't have to be forever.
De Ligt is young. The way it is and he is, his value wouldn't be affect if they don't sell now and just keep him. Selling him and loan back is unrealistic for big signing, and the buying club.
 
He'll be a Pique level defender rather than a Rio one. World Class but not the level of the greats. He'll look great when things are going well but he doesn't have the toughness when it matters.Waste of money for us until we become a dominant side again.

This post is laughable. He's still a teenager.

Come on. :lol:
 
Got pulled around a bit in that second half. The PL would be a baptism of fire for him and if he were to come I think he’d experience the same early problems that De Gea had coping with the intense football.

Quality player though.
 
Not really his fault Blind got manhandled by Llorente for the entire second half.

Tbh it's a lightweight partnership surprised other teams haven't tried to exploit it more this way.
 
We have to try at least. He’d love it in the PL.
 
Said the same yesterday. For all his faults Llorente is the perfect striker to play Ajax.
Yup, a classical stopper next to him would be a lot better.
 
Fecking hell, he’s 19 lads. He was just absolutely knackered for the last goal. He’d been putting his body on the line all night.
