Hopefully we are posturing to lower a price of our targets.
He actually looked good when played in his correct positionWould be such an underwhelming transfer. Usually you can at least hold a bit of hope that someone will come in and surprise you but in this case we already know how average he is. And when we are in a position financially where we need to sell to buy it seems completely pointless wasting a fee on a player who won't improve us, no matter how low it is.

If we get him on a very very cheap loan, then if the club wants to sign him permanently next summer, there's no fee to pay to his parent club.Would be such an underwhelming transfer.

Two actuallyHe had one good game.
an overkill of shit old legless players...we saw the performance of the team last year with this group and it will be the same if nothing changes. we'll get up a ton of shots and we won't score for shitHe never got much of chance in his favoured position and when he did, he looked a good player. He's probably more suited to that defensive mid role than Ugarte too. Collyer will hopefully be given a first team role this season.
Case
Ambrabat
Collyer
Mainoo
McT
Eriksen
Bruno
Mount
Is overkill of options in midfield tbh. Unless Casemiro, McT and one more player is sold, I really don't see us having the funds to spend big money on anyone in midfield.
Ten Hag kept his job based off one good game... #justsayingHe had one good game.
Seems mental that they were a day away from sacking him but are now backing him with signings he wants, coaches he wants, a playing style he wants. It’s like they haven’t even considered that it could go tits up and they have to replace him and all his people in DecemberTen Hag kept his job based off one good game... #justsaying

If you look at his stats at fiorentina, we haven't seen that player at Utd. Played in his proper position, he can be a high volume passer.I've read all summer we need a high volume passer, well, Amrabat is the only one we have and I don't think he's nearly as bad as some people make out. I actually think in all our best performances, he was on the pitch. No DM would have looked good the way we played last season. I'm definitely Ok with him as a squad option
I don't consider Amrabat "dead wood". Man's been here for less than a year and played out of position fairly often. I'm not saying he's world class but until we can find someone better for a similar fee I'm all for a loan extension or short term contract.Imagine you’ve got dead wood, but it’s only a loan and they go back at the end of the season but then you find that actually your club is considering spending money to bring the dead wood back and lock into a contract.
I'd rather we use Collyer as backup than waste money on Amrabat. Our limited funds should go towards better quality players like Ugarte / Rabiot.
From interviews I gather that he's a 6. He also plays like one, and he should be used as backup to Casemiro and Ugarte. Amrabat isn't worth any financial outlay for me, which is my point.From what I've seen of Collyer he looks more of an 8 than a 6 in terms of holding that position where Amrabat is exclusively a 6
Amrabat will cost millions though?Seems like we’re not in a position to spend millions on a midfielder, so Amrabat might have to do.
Amrabat is out of contract next summer so I don't think he would be too expensive to re-loan again.Amrabat will cost millions though?
I don’t think we’re pulling the trigger on any midfield options until we get some out goings. One of Casemiro, McTominay or Eriksen would have to leave.
Why would a club loan one of their players who will then be out of contract when it’s up? You loan a player either to get experience or to line up buyersAmrabat is out of contract next summer so I don't think he would be too expensive to re-loan again.
Because he's still coming contractually their player till July 1st 2025. You got money for him for the loan or you sell him. Either way you get money.Why would a club loan one of their players who will then be out of contract when it’s up? You loan a player either to get experience or to line up buyers
I don’t think any club would do that unless they are committed to getting very little. A loan would costs probably 3m, buying him maybe 8m. A difference of 5m to the seller.Because he's still coming contractually their player till July 1st 2025. You got money for him for the loan or you sell him. Either way you get money.

We didn’t do it when in the same position with Lingard
We were desperate for a mid and left it late as usual, so we overpaidWe paid 10m€ to loan Amrabat but that was unusually high.
