So we only need to buy a Kante level player to make that work.
I think we should plan our midfield with players that compliment McTominay.
Fair enough, I don’t.
I hope Kalvin Phillips is one of those midfielders.
I see the Longstaff talk has started again with some fans. I pray like last window it doesn't happen and in any other subsequent window to boot.
Wait, people still don't rate McTominay?
Are they blind?
We need two midfielders to play with him.

Exactly. He’s a rising star, he’s going to be a monster of a b2b CM. Anyone with eyes should be able to see that he’s already a key player, someone with the inner drive and a future captain.
At times you wonder whether these people actually watch our games or not.
I think if we had a midfield good enough to win the title, he would only make the bench
And i wonder if people have forgotten what it takes to actually win the league. Hes got talent but i'd say he would be a squad option at liverpool or city, not a guaranteed starter at all.
I'm guessing they don't essentially need to push for him in January as reinforcing midfield and back up striker are bigger priorities.
Funny. Journalists are idiots.
Can someone please fix it so quoting tweets doesn't keep making it appear as a new tweet on the alerts bar?
Agree that we should be going for striker and midfielders in January.
It mentions about Sancho in January but not about striker and midfielders in January. This could just be cleverly worded to make it seem as if we are in for striker and midfielders in January when we are not until the summer.
Agree on this. It is getting irritating. Someone please sort it out

This should be fixed now. Yes / no?
Didn't show up for me. Hooray!
And Tom Cleverly could have played for Barcelona according to Fergie remember?
Bollocks. Scott is decent and that's it.
This is a check to see if it works for me
Check
@Niall Seems to be working properly now. Thanks very much

McTominay has been just as good as Jordan Henderson or Wijnaldum and they may be 1st XI players in a title winning team. He’s also still pretty young at 23 so could be great at 26-28.
Do we really need Sancho for a £100 million price ? It just feels too expensive.
Depending on the money available - I would try to get the following players in
Haaland - and if we can't get him, sign Jarrod Bowen who is available for pocket change.
In midfield Sander Berge will be available for less than £40 million. And I wouldn't mind Grealish to be honest but I doubt Villa will let him go.

Those are the rates. He’s a world class talent, and will develop into the top 3 PL players I reckon either here or at a rival.
I know it is - but with James performing as well as he has - I can't really justify spending £100 m on Sancho when we have other positions we need improvment more. Don't get me wrong - he is a brilliant player, and I would love to have him....but...a winger isn't what our main priority should be.
With Sancho, you will most likely get the money back with lots of sales, kinda like Juve did with CR7.
Just because we sign Sancho doesn’t mean he is our main priority either.
That's not actually a thing. Juventus don't get paid for the number of shirts sold in a kit deal, not would there be £100m+ worth of shirts with his name on them sold either.
He's already better than Henderson and he's 23. Have a word with yourself.
But that is what been reported by Juve, that they made the money back very quickly on his merch... reported in newspapers so you know, they like to add some color.
They don't. They want someone with a higher FIFA rating.
I disagree. Right winger has been our weak position for many years. We need a quality right winger asap.
Get over yourself. It’s not some footballing consensus that Scott McTominay is a top class midfielder or something, people are more than entitled to see things differently. And he isn’t better than Henderson, and certainly not Wijnaldum either.
Better than Henderson how?
Of course he is. In almost every thing that matters:
- More goals
- More shots per game.
- Better passing.
- Far better defending. More tackles, interceptions, clearances and blocks
- More "dribbles", or rather: taking the ball forward.
McTominay isn’t a better passer than Henderson.
Better passing? What the heck?
