Damn, we really should be in for this guy in my opinion.
Are you thinking about Berardi for us? I get a nasty feeling the Peresic stuff might well rear it's uglyt head again if we do go for another wide player, I just feel if we add another option it will be someone who offers more natural width.
Tolisso would be an interesting option for them but Matuidi is likely cheaper so I guess it depends on how they are budgeting this summer. Do you think there is any chance they'd sell Alex Sandro?
If Paredes is available, we should be all over this. Would surely signal that Nainggolan won't be leaving Roma though? I feel Paredes would be perfect but I think Mourinho wants an aerial presence as a holding midfielder (Fabinho/Dier/Matic). Paredes is in the tenacious mould of Herrera, but he oozes class on the ball.
He would tick a lot of boxes to be honest, but I didn't think we had a chance until Juventus signed Dybala. I've been a fan for a while, but like I said the injuries are a concern and he's a bit of a nutcase. Quite a few red cards. Juventus moving Dybala centrally as quickly as they did could mean there's a place on the right for Berardi, I'm just not sure, if it's balanced with Dybala in the centre.
I can't say the options for natural width are all that exciting, if I'm being honest. The Perisic rumours I just struggle to believe.
I'd be very surprised, if Juventus would sell one of their best players, who they've just signed last summer. If he's actually available, then we need to go for him.
Didn't Paredes say a few days ago that he was happy at Roma and could have joined Juventus on a number of occasions in the past?
I'd be surprised if went for him to be honest, I've not seen a lot of him but he doesn't seem massively different to our current options that occupy the wider roles.
I agree they aren't exciting, Peresic, Costa, Moura, none of them are anything special IMO.
I figured, just some articles have been making it sound like Juve were open to selling him.
We should totally be in for Paredes. Better and more realistic than dire Dier.
But not as tall, Jose likes height.
Just when I started including him in my transfer targets. Juventus are relentless. They pile up all the good players in the Serie A.
Not seen a huge amount of Roma but I remember Paredes signing and seeing him a few times last season or two as he was a good football manager signing. Looking like a really good player now but took a long tim eto settle. Think he is a really good signing for juventus but not sure he is ready made for the premiership yet at least. Not just because he is at Roma and Argentinian but I could see a Lamela type period of struggling to adapt if he came to us, good player though
1.8m isn't exactly short though.
Yeah but 6 foot 2 is a three bottler for Jose.
I don't think it's likely either, just wondering what will happen with him. If he can stay fit, he pretty much guarantees goals.
He might be, like I said, in that case, we hopefully are monitoring the situation.
There doesn't seem to be a lot of talk around him, now that could be because he plays for a small club but that hasn't stopped the Belotti hype train gathering pace, perhaps Berardi's temprament has seen bigger clubs steer clear?
I agree, we need to address LB, people keep saying we have options but it's quantity over quality, none of them are good enough to be a starter, it's why the position is rotated almost every other game.
Where art thou, Ed?
Dont think Ive ever been so not bothered either way with regards a heavily linked stellar signing we have been linked with for a long time. Very good player who the last couple of years has impressed me, always thought he was over rated until then. Now I just think he is over hyped, very good player but for me not one of the best 4/5 players in the world he is claimed to be. Think he would have been great in our swashbuckling 4-4-2 days as a Sheringham type player, but with our current formation I really dont see us getting the best out of him and I dont see the desire to play for us from what he is saying within the media at least. The potential fees I think I would rather a Bale or Neymar for example that would fit into the side easier.
Similar to Diego Costa, I think he's too talented to care too much about his temper. He's probaby Italy's most talented player right after Verratti. It's probably the injuries.
No argument from me there. I think people are deluded, if they think we don't need a LB. Shaw can't stay fit and the rest isn't talented enough. Really hope we go for Emerson, I think he'd be cheaper than Mendy as well. I am actually surprised Guardiola isn't going for Emerson, he fits his idea of a full-back a lot more than Mendy.
That good? Maybe if he can get a couple of full seasons under his belt without injuries and maybe showing a bit of maturation, someone will go in for him.
Emerson plays for Roma, right? Not seen a lot of him to be honest, I'd like to see us try for Bernat if we don't get Mendy.
Getting ready for the most uninspiring £200m splurge ever
He is. He's rated very highly in Italy. If it wasn't for the injuries, I think he'd already be at a bigger club. To be fair to him, he didn't get sent off this year.
Yep, the one from Roma.
Aubameyang, Griezmann, Dier and Rose? Apart from the first two, talk about an uninspiring summer transfer list...
Has there been anywhere even seriously linking Aubameyang and Rose to us? Mourinho will want players who he think can do a job in his system, even if they don't sound as inspiring as the players that say, City would bring in.
Why do you ask?Where art thou, Ed?
Monaco going to have no players left.
Lemar is class. We should be in for him.
Lemar on one wing is a player who would allow us to play a 442 with Griezmann well without compromising Pogba much. He's a natural at playing as a nominal wide player, and would allow Pogba and a DM to have adequate cover centrally too.
Didn't Roma say that they would listen to offers for him? I think it was this winter.
Agreed.
Now there's a wide option I would like to see at United.
Unfortunately I'm not sure Mourinho sees it that way.
Which would be a massive shame.Unfortunately I'm not sure Mourinho sees it that way.
That's true
what Jose seems to like in players is not really what I want to see at United.That's true
His signings for us have been immense. Pogba, Bailly, Mkhitryan and Ibra is exactly the profile of player I want to see at United.
That's true
Let's wait and see, shall we? I remain hopeful because of last summer.
Thing is with Monaco, they can probably sell 8 players this summer, recruit beasts that nobody has ever heard of, and still push for the title next season then rinse and repeat.
I'm talking about the players we are being linked with for this window.

Sure mate, I'm just feeling a bit down about the way we've played for the last few months, it has been everything I worried about with Jose and seeing us linked to the likes of Keane, Dier and Moura doesn't exactly boost expectancy, hopefully I'm pleasently surprised this window.
No they can't. That's not a sustainable strategy for any club.

Oh ya, underwhelming to say the least. I'm just hoping that's just media rubbish though.
They've got a few very talented youngsters already waiting for their opportunity tbf. Saint Maximin looks a very good prospect too.
