Not sure mate, haven't seen him play much.

Ofcourse he wouldn't because Rashford isn't a striker. Name one player who has scored consistently 20 goals + assists for 3 seasons under the age of 23.
Juvenile is the word that comes to mind when attempting to describe this post.
Dunno, remember when we were talking to Real and Morata, only to sign Lukaku instead? I wouldn't be surprised if the club is talking (through intermediaries) to 2-3 CBs, gauging players interest, willingness of club to negotiate etc..
Edit - Real, not Atleti'!
Botman would be a good signing. I like him.
na na na na na na na na BOTMAN!
I suppose if he can clear out all the old players and start again with youth and add his own experienced choices, he could do ok. It’ll take a good few years though and I doubt if they’ll have the patience. If crowds return then it’ll only take them to start getting on his back for him to leave or get sacked
He could be or he could be much like Lindelof and have weaknesses that are apparent and exposed frequently. Is very difficult to judge players who are in lesser leagues. His positioning isn’t great, but physically he’s a unit and I do like he’s a lefty. Having a very good season so far.
Thanks, I didn’t get the impression he was quick from the bits I've seen, interesting. With links to him and Pau Torres it seems distribution is a big factor in what Ole is looking for, both are heavily left sided as well which is a bit odd as Maguire likes to play from the left.
Think a while ago there was much talk about Ole wanting to move Maguire to the right , so it would be easier to play out from the back.
Solskjaer wants his Defenders to be good on ball but unfortunately he seems to have ignored midfield so far , hopefully that changes this summer and we prioritise atleast couple of midfielders of good quality even if that means selling Pogba then so be it .
The thing is Lindelof played LCB for Benfica and when he partnered Smalling here, so if Maguire wanted to operate as the RCB I think he already would be, didn't he play LCB for Hull and Leicester as well?
Castles links us to a Lille player every transfer window and it always comes to nothing.
100% agree, even without additions our current CB's are both better on the ball than our main 2 midfielders, i get wanting an engine room that's high energy but not at the expense of quality on the ball, you can have both.
.
Was it Pepe and Soumare before? Maybe 3rd time lucky..
Not only their players, he was also trying to force Campos on us too.
A large part of his job is PR. As journalism goes, it’s pretty odd.
Doing his friend, Campos a favour.
He has very strong mob ties with Mendes. Often his mouthpiece.
See thats the sort of saturday morning story I like.
wonder how many times european sports outlets will spout this «club interested», «player wants to go» links with no new info before we get him or not.
We really are a click gold mine
He also linked Botman to Liverpool a couple months ago
In this case, Sport1's Patrick Berger has decent links to Dortmund, so if he says this, then there's indeed something to the story.
Sport Witness themselves play down the United-Arambarri links.
If we have yet to make contacts with the player's reps, then there really is nothing to this story at this time.

Castles is a knob
Lets hope so, Botman is a decent centre back and little more. Personally dont even think he improves us, let alone taking us up a level
Left back one sounds a bit strange considering James Justin has had such a good season until he got injured and then of course Luke Thomas has been superb as well since coming in for such a young player
After Christian Fuchs, Luke Thomas is their only proper left-footed player. James Justin is out of position there as well as both Castagne and Ricardo Pereira. Luke Thomas is still defensively weak, whilst Justin doesn't offer much going forward from the left. Sure, they can continue playing right-sided players on the left, but then they'll lack width, particularly with their back 3 setup.
Garner:
That’s nice to hear, I would love to him to develop into a top DM for us and plug the major hole we have there in terms of quality at the moment.
Would love Fofana. They would take us to the cleaners again but I honestly believe he will develop into one of the best defenders in the league.
He is still young and learning, has the odd mistake that you would expect but the tools are there for him to be top drawer.
Why on earth weren’t we or others willing to take a chance on him?
With 4 CBs already and the belief in Axel, I get why we didn’t. We have also been monitoring Badiashile who has just started impressing for Monaco.
Plus there was all that farce with Sancho. Ffs!
