They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.

I am officially ReguilON.
If we sign him and he's going to provide accurate aerial crosses into the box, who will be aiming to get on the end of them? I'm pretty sure from memory I can count the amount of headed goals Martial and Rashford have scored for us in the past few years on two hands.
How many headed goals do Salah, Mane and Firmino score?
Why do you think he’s just gonna pump aimless high balls into the box? The graphs clearly shows he can do a wide range of crossing.
You do know crosses eventually dip right? You don’t need an Ibra/Fellaini in there everytime to get on the end of it. Good players always find ways of getting in scoring positions. The likes of Fernandes, Pogba and VDB will all get on the end of crosses. Also if you remember Rooney the year after Ronnie left scored like 10+ headed goals. How many header before that season did he score? Prolly only a handful.
He is probably better than Shaw and does not get injured as much. With AWB being awful at attack, we need a more attacking fullback.
If he comes, Shaw is gonna be backup to him IMO.
I don’t think Ole wants Regulion if it means he has to give up on Upamecano or Sancho.
Ole loves Williams, loves the kid’s tenacity, just watch his press conferences and comments about him. I rate the lad myself.
To me, when building a squad, getting another LB when we have two already seems mad — unless the fee is 10m or something.

An even better question; how many of the 25 PL assists that Robertson and Alexander-Arnold managed were headed goals?
And play Williams for 30 matches there. Awesome idea!
If you think you were happy with Williams at LB then you aren’t seeing something right. He can’t attack and doesnt make overlapping runs. At least Shaw makes runs even though he is shit at crossing and there is no end product. Switch Williams as a back up to RB and see if he is more attacking on his favorite foot and bring in A LB. Reguilon looks like he is already better than Shaw and Williams at LB from what I’ve seen and heard. So not signing him for 20-25m is going to be a huge mistake.
Also sign someone for 10m? We aren’t signing someone for a pub team. The likes of Jamal Lewis from Norwich is going for 14m. Reguilon seems to be a more finished article can costs around 8-10m.
Messi the midget scored a header when being guarded by Rio, we'll be fine.
Not good enough to Real Madrid is not good enough to Man Utd.
We won’t buy a player who we don’t have control of. Buy back don’t can work in numerous ways, some Would be agreeable other not at all.
If Real want a set buy back they’re not going to have really big clubs who can afford 25 million on a left back after him. They need money so aren’t really in a strong negotiating position, for a player who would be 3rd or 4th choice for 1 position.
I think this would give us some options with our formation and allow Rashford to cut in. I hate seeing Shaw and Williams cutting in but not being able to make anything of the space while Rashford is stuck outside. Imagine chasing a game and having Reguilon and Rashford bombing down the left.
Reguilon would be awesome but for some reason I see him as the perfect signing for city to replace Mendy with. With that said I hope we can get him. With him getting called up to the national team and age if he doesn't work out we should be able to get a similar fee for him. Low risk high reward.

Would could possibly get Estupinan for less than 10 million. United have scoured him during last season, I’d be happy with him as part of the squad, very good player with a lot of potential. You don’t need to spend tens of millions on every player, there are some gems out there who don’t cost the earth.
He is starting again for Spain tonight along with DDG.
Another guy WITH potential? We got plenty of that in our U-18s. We need someone who is capable of going into the first team straightaway. Shaw is not going to be fit the entire season. Maybe we can keep him fit by not playing him every game. Didn’t he play 16-17 games in a row before he got injured? Also spending 20m nowadays is peanuts. It was like spending 5-7m during Fergie days.
It's got nothing to do with not being good enough for them,they already have a club legend and Zidane favorite in Marcelo there along with an expensive longtime Zidane target from France in Mendy at that position.
It's literally the exact position Hakimi was in a few months prior before signing for Inter, he had impressed on loan with Dortmund but was too good to stick around to be 2nd or 3rd choice in Madrid so they let go of him with a first refusal clause for his own sake. Same thing is happening here with Reguilon
Thats a dumb mentality.
Sneijder and Robben wouldn't have been good enough too then?
Part of the reason they haven't scored is the quality of the crossing. Anyway not all crosses are in the air.
Yeah Robertson and TAA are lionised for their crossing but all they're aiming for is Firmino, Mane, Salah and Wijnaldum. I'd say Rashford and Martial are on par with them as far as aerial ability goes.
Would be interesting to see a similar crossing chart for Shaw. Dont think there would be a huge difference
He’s just removed Seville from his twitter bio supposedly so looks unlikely he’s going back there.
Are you lurking on his twitter account? Go on be honest.
This would be a great signing
Others are lurking for me...honest. I do a daily MUFC twitter search to see people moan about Woodward and this is currently the big topic

If United do sign him, he would be a very good signing. Overall, not a lot of money these days for a quality international player.
It would be much better business than Chelsea’s purchase of Chilwell.

Anyone actually think we are genuinely in for him. I see it as pie in the sky stuff tbh.
Would love to see it though.

This. Shaw isnt very good when he gets near the box, and we run the risk of him getting injured as per usual. I'm all for Reguilon coming in as first choice LB.
I was actually going to ask the same question with the 3 you mentioned but saw the tweet re: Umtiti and wasn't aware how severe his knee problems were.
How is it pie in the sky stuff.
RM want to sell him.
The only question is do they want the extra €10m now or they prefer having the buyback option.
No, nothing remotely reliable.
People always tweet stuff like that and it turns out that the player never had it there in the first place, and even if he did have it and remove it, it doesn't mean much as he currently isn't a Sevilla player.
In fairness I would have expected him to stop following Jimmy years ago
He started following some of the United lads, as stupid as it sounds that is usually quite telling. Also Romano reported he’s been offered to us.
I think we'll sign him on a loan deal just before the window ends with an option/obligation to buy at the end of the season.
