Indeed, I agree but who else in the squad is backup in Bruno‘s position?
I’d sell Lingard but if he’s not being replaced it’s pointless at this stage.

Bürki stays in Dortmund....he doesn't want a loan to Basel.
Some players are really stupid.
Some players are really stupid.
Isn't Mata supposed to be the cover or did he get another contract just because he's a nice guy
We can't complain and thankfully Zidane made a lot of job with Camavinga's family. You shouldn't stress too much for the holding position. You are doing great in the market, with the question mark of Cristiano.
Dream signings would be one of those 2 plus Adama for meThey said "since we are negociating in France let's bring some player
I prefer Laporte, we need some "spaniard" in the national team
I thought too but I guess it's too late to start talking with United seeing the precedents
Sancho and VdB at least
I think he’ll score some important goals this season.
Sancho’s going to play the majority in the wide position and yeah ideally Donny but we all know what Ole thinks of him. Midfields in the shit and Donny Can’t even get a sub appearance I reckon Lingard and Mata are ahead of him.
..for the u23's.
Ffs its a long season and we need depth, Have you heard of squad depth?
I do not agree with that, I think he is terrible, he does not have Real Madrid level.
He is Munitis with muscles and I think it is a lack of respect for Don Pedro

Sanches looked good in the European Championships, totally different from the player on loan with Swansea a while back.
That is too much squad depth....10 players for 4 positions.
Ronaldo, Cavani, Fernandes, Rashford, Sancho, Martial, Greenwood, Van de Beek, Mata and Lingard.
Tbf we have huge amounts of depth in our front 4 positions and pretty much none in cm. It's a very valid point on Lingard. He doesn't really help us in any way and won't be playing anything other than cup games.
Surprised if other clubs dont come in for him. Not good enough for the top four sides in my opinion, but he is an international player that coudl do a godo job for a lot of the other sides in the league. Maybe a case of he wants to stay and Ole wants to keep him. Never been a fan, but isnt a bad back up option as a squad plaer for Fernandes
Would honestly be better than nothing
Looks like he got his wish after all
It really wouldn’t. He wouldn’t solve any of our problems. Just add bloat to our squad.
Doesnt surprise me. Was my first choice signing all summer in terms of the priority....but wasnt expecting Varane then.
Surprised me some of the negativity towards him as a signing due to his age. An immense talent that would have been a great signing..............but may be about to find out Madrid as his dream move was true all along like press reports though never seen anythign cocnrete
I think he's a great wingback. Carvajal is still good but I think Adama can be better, and i don't trust carvajal's body anymore anyways. Lucas did well last season but he's a converted winger himself, no reason we can't improve here
Interesting to see how he does in the premiership, have seen him have some stinkers and look disinterested, but he looks a talented player to me
In every transfer saga we’ve had this summer he’s posted something along the lines of “despite what media is saying, a deal for X isn’t close. Still confidence it will happen but not as close as is being made out”.
Every single time.
If the deal takes a few days longer, he looks like he’s really ITK. If it closes quickly, he follows up with “details were ironed out last night and the transfer accelerated”.
He’s the king of hedging his bets, and almost all his info is about deals NOT happening or taking longer. Which is a remarkably easy thing to do. He doesn’t seem to post any insider or exclusive knowledge on anything that will happen. Just caution or negativity about rumours others are talking about.
i ignore him. He seems hypersensitive, and a complete chancer.
Think the negativity was more about he’d potentially take a year or so before becoming starting XI mainstay
How many of those players will need replacing though? ROnaldo/Greenwood cover Cavani, Pogba for me is a loss on the left but not in cm, VDB is barely even here now lets be honest.
Seeing some rumours of Newcastle interest, actually think it would be a good move for him and Newcastle....if and its a massive if he can stay fit as there centre backs are all pretty poor
I bet you're fun at parties
ZOuma was so hyped before Chelsea and so so average at best at CHelsea, thats why I think they sold him. Surprised they were in for Kounde myself as they have decent options at centre back. Rudiger has improved massively and personally though its really only ENgland youth games I have seen him.....I think Chabolah is a top prospect
This is another great drinking game bingo hit on these boards since Fergie left.
We don't need depth if the depth is Championship level (James) or cannot perform against the opposition and tactics we face week in, week out (Lingard vs low block is a waste).
We need to have the depth of Man City, not West Ham. Up your standards and open your eyes.
I really don't think so. OGS didn't pick him last season AT ALL before that loan and now we have Sancho AND Ronaldo and Greenwood's firing on all cylinders.
As much as I don't rate Lingard in our squad, he's an easy star of Payet's level when playing for WHU when they set up on the counter. Not to mention the easy FPL points.
If he doesn't move this season (or go on a loan with a new contract), he'll miss his last chance for a World Cup as well. It's the smart and right choice for him to go.
He's about to turn 29, imagine we actually give him a new contract and loan him out. He'll be just shy of 30 when we get him back.
Solution if you're Lingard's agent.Any club that does that deserves every member of the board and management sacking for gross idiocy.
West Ham are busy bidding top dollar for players but want to fleece us.
Yeah, would need an obligation on that for it to be viable
There you catch me. I've only seen him with Spain and he seemed fast but very predictable. He doesn't have a great repertoire of plays to use that speed.
With Spain I remember that he played a few minutes as a RB.or you mean in 352?
In any case, they would ask us for a lot of money that I personally would not invest for that position
He had a good season for Lille as well, was playing out on the left mainly. I think Swansea should be forgotten now
Just let him play out his contract ffs, we'd better not fecking give him a new deal.
Thats true but I dont agree with it....well if he got the opportunities anyway which is a different thing
