His passing stats look pretty poor for a midfielder.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) get the depressing job of reviewing United's 3-0 loss at Old Trafford to Liverpool. They discuss what went wrong, Casemiro's day to forget, and the pressure now on Erik Ten Hag. They also take some time to give McTominay a proper farewell, and give their overall thoughts on the Summer Transfer Window.
they are taking the piss, they have to be....no way they buy a guy from a futsal league for €5m and put a €90m release clause in his contract
Palmeiras actually has a 90m clause on … anyone? That I do find surprising. It seems like more than half their team is being purchased right now though, so I can see why they’d be desperate.
Rios strikes me as energetic, quality depth for a good team but not a starter. At the 17 I was reading last night … good option.
90 is going to be an immediate no go.

I watched one of Colombia's games and he didn't look anything special. Odd link which I presume is agent driven.
Good. Richard Rios to Richard Adios.
If this guy's value is 90m, Mainoo's is 600m
What’ve they been smoking?
Imagine stopping one of your players from joining a big European team. Or is that release clause just for us because I bet if city/benfica come calling he’ll be theirs for about 20m.Seems like this team is realizing they have some money on their hands with this kid and are trying to play hard ball. If United are serious, I would pay no more than 18 million including addons. His energy would be helpful as a bench/ sub while he acclimates to the premier league. It may be worth it as we really need to solidify a bench as well.
Also, from what I have seen... he is fast, and we need more of that in the midfield.

Seems like a case of someone saying 80M, and then mishearing it as 18M
In fairness, one of my best work friends is Colombian and was insufferable about their team heading into Euros , so I watched every Colombia match, and he’s worth every penny of 18. Is the kind of player very good teams have to come off the bench. So at 28 I was like “oh wow, that’s really good business”.
Oh well.
Never heard of him. Although I just had to stop playing FM in 2012. I wouldn't even dare buy it now that I wfh 3 days a week. When I'm retired and have nowt else to do with my time, I might pick it up again.
Oh boy did you miss out in FM 07 then: https://www.reddit.com/r/footballmanagergames/s/X0wvA2ucLX
I had to stop too, playing late into the night while my missus sleeps doesn't really fly any more with a baby!
can we not just fecking buy Rios and Zubimendi/Ugarte and have our midfield sorted out???? if we don't get these midfield fixed we are fecked for the season
You'll have Amrabat on loan and like it.
just go ahead and shoot me right now
Doesn't seem the club has 100m to make those sort of deals.
My suspicion is that we find ourselves in a position where we know we absolutely have to do something in that area, yet we are not really enamoured with the options on the market. Looks to me that we want to make a move, but not one that locks us in for years to come. So I don’t see us ‘sorting’ the midfield per se - that player doesn’t seem to be available. I think we either want a cheap option or a loan option - both of which would not be the end of the midfield story, just the end of it for this season.
Rabiot no longer on the list? What happened there?
Never seen any strong links to him.
Perhaps we were put off by certain demands
