Six is a number
Thanks for the input. I've watched some clips and he looks alright. But, in the same time, all players look alright in clips.Watched part of the Sporting v Porto game last week. He was solid from what I saw, but obviously less than 1 game is nowhere near enough to judge someone. Here's what I noticed though. Played as (right-footed) LCB which is what we need. Big, strong, good in the air, pretty good on the ball for a CB (better than Smalling for sure) but he's only 20 so might lack a little focus.
Why would there be so much interest in an average striker?
wow, the last year's Manager's Player of the Year is going out for the loan
Please be true!
He could do better than Fenerbahce. I can see quite a few premier league clubs interested in him and there's also the option of going back to Valencia.
This was my thinking, he's far too good for Fernerbache.He could do better than Fenerbahce. I can see quite a few premier league clubs interested in him and there's also the option of going back to Valencia.
According to?
Valencia dont need more overrated attacking players. They need a regular goalscorer
If Mata is gone, De Gea will re consider signing the new contract
He does to the right team and right system, unfortunately we've now changed to a pressing and fast counter attack system, which doesn't suit him and you can tell the drop in performance when he plays.I will be extremely sad to see Mata go. He still has a lot to offer
Please be true!
These sort of stories never end up being true. Also I doubt we’d get much of a fee for him given he’s only got 6 months left on his contract.
Mata will do fine as a second striker in Spain. His goal scoring ability is probably still his best attribute now and he can produce goals if played centrally.
If we were able to sell Mata this month then we would have the space to get Malcom in on a six month loan + option to buy.

Its easy to resist when you play them.
I know Pogba got away but we still ended up playing 4 players from our acadamy in the Spurs game last week.
Chelsea and City will suffer from poaching if they don't change their ways but Utd seem to be signing highly rated 15/16 year olds every other season. It's because we play them and give them a chance.
No need to throw us all under the bus.
Pat Nevin was on Five Live preaching about how impossible it is for Chelsea to blood through youngsters when they're not as good as Hazard or William.You would have thought they would learn by now, it could save them a fortune in transfers. The real question is why they are so scared to play them. I don’t see Foden ever living up to his hype unless he leaves City and gets regular games.
