Would make sense, they wanted Boateng in the summer, so Toby on that price would interest them i imagine

Having already got Kimpembe, Silva and Marquinhos? Saying that, I know they've been playing three at the back every now and then, so that maybe the reason.

I thought they would stop pursuing Boateng after buying Kehrer from Schalke, but they were still interested in him, but Bayern wanted too much money. Could be that Tuchel would like to move more often to a back 3, but injuries and only having Verratti in midfield put a stop to that

How can Spurs be below his level when they had a title challenge 3 years ago, knocked Arsenal out of the cup this year, finished above Utd for a couple of years, have a great new stadium where the toilets have heated seats, the most amazing training facilities you'll find anywhere in North London and such a great fan base?

Baffling that the NFL pitch hasn't tempted him.
 
Oh feck off Inter, they always want our best players, I'd be worried if they're going for Fellaini.

I'd rather keep him for another season as he's a solid squad player as he can play as a left and right back. I wouldn't mind Valencia leaving at the end of the season though.

He's 33 now, so I'd say Inter are probably willing to offer him a great wage to come. He's a been a great servant to the club and can still contribute in defense and attack (on both sides as you said), while Valencia has become even more limited the past few seasons. He deserves a good final contract

Many do and the vast majority of games are all good. Can’t let a very few knob heads prevent any player plying their trade in any country.

It's not just a few knobheads though is it? When a manager appeals to a ref three times in one game and the ref does nothing, when a black player gets a red card for protesting to the ref, when games are being played with no fans on a regular basis, something tells me it's more than just a few fans spoiling it for the majority. There's not much good about the Italian league....and I haven't even started on the corruption.
 
Part of the problem of this club is retaining bang average players like Young that can "do a job" for far longer than we should be, and the supporters wanting to keep them, if I owned United i'd tear up this guys contract, along with Phil Jones. Ship out the deadwood ffs, people complain we don't do it then when there are articles about it people wanna retain them as squad players.

It depends on what Young wants. If he wants more money then perhaps a move away is better but imo he'd probably rather stay another year as he's clearly contributing here.

Young isn't deadwood though and has been one of our better players this season. Plus, his versatility means that he can fill in multiple positions in situations where we have several injuries to first team players. Even top teams have players that sit on the bench and contribute when given the opportunities. However, if Young was our first choice full back next season, then I'd share your sentiment.

I agree with you but at the moment he’s (unbelievably) our best option at RB. Until we get a replacement we should keep him. He’s a good squad player but no way should he be starting every week like he does.

I would more than happily let Dalot start every week over Young at this point, how else is he gonna learn.

You just don't play youngsters so they learn though.
If that were the case nobody could ever mismanage a young player, ever.

I don’t think there can ever be a one size fits all to young players. If the player is good enough, he should play. Someone like Dalot probably needs exposure through rotation. Whereas Rashford is ready to start every game. You just take it case by case IMO.

Yeah but I"be seen this mindset applied to every young player we have or are linked with.
Sir Alex used to play them, give them a taste, take them out to keep their hunger and make them feel they earned it.
We also used to play them through the ranks in different positions so they became well rounded.
Its just annoying to see criticisms as though we aren't fans of a club who have done this well over the last 25 years.
 
We’re such a small time club when a ‘European giant’ can just come and take our captain away like that.
