We play … this?

Time for a “What does McTominay do?” thread.
Sean Dyche and Everton say hi
He‘s worse than Weghorst.
Yep. 30m was a good offer despite a lot of posters claiming it wasn't enough. He'll barely play next season and we'll be lucky to get 15m next summer.
We do unfortunately, and he has a large group of supporters here that think he's worth £40m minimum. Jokers!
Exactly. Brighton are the moneyball club of the PL - they look for players, with great underlying stats but are relatively cheap. McTominay is the mistake they're trying not to make - a player that all the underlying stats suggest is below average, but is massively overvalued.

It's mental, isn't it? As much flack as Fred caught, at least he would actually show for the football.

Several players in the Scotland squad actually play in the Championship so I'm not sure what those games are supposed to prove.
You should have seen the other one.
Even more reason to accept 30m then.
Yes, because Paqueta is a completely different type of player and McT has definitely never been considrred as his replacement. And whether Moyes likes him or not, West Ham must have decided 40m is too expensive for him.
The problem lies in the fact that better players are available for the price we want, like JWP that West Ham signed instead.
If your evaluations are nuts and you refuse to compromise on it, then all it achieves are having not good enough players in the payroll and getting no money from them.

If we go by the standards of the players in Scotland’s team, the league you’re referring to is the Championship or the Scottish league.
The truth is that he isn’t good enough to compete for a starting place. The aim will be to get him out but I have a hunch that the budget is getting tight and that’s why we’re waiting for the right offer.
We've known this for years and he still survives every window. We will end up missing Fred when we need to rely on McTominay (I actually cant believe what I just typed.).
No, the match against Wolves showed exactly why we can't sell him right now.
What is Scott actually supposed to do though? He's poor as a DM, and despite this new phase of people thinking he'd be a great option as a roaming box-to-box player attacking the opposition box (because he scored a few goals for Scotland) he's never done anything in a Utd shirt to indicate that bar a one-off match here and a one-off match there. ETH clearly rated him lower than Fred in that particular role (and rightfully so), yet many people here seem to have been ecstatic to sell Fred while thinking Scott should be kept to play that role. Doesn't make sense to me at all.
