Why is he not out on loan, or being sold?! Hamstrung by a Woodward classiq contract?
United will only send players out on loan to clubs that will offer regular playing time for their players. Tuanzebe to Stoke makes sense given that Stoke will sell Souttar to Leicester. Williams may not have received loan interest from clubs that could give him regular minutes at a high-enough level.
 
You can tell how big of a club united is by the fact that when youGoogle transfer news the main news search results aren't about chelsea potential record breaking signing but in fact sabitzer loan to united.

Is he better off doing nothing at United, though? He's 23 this year. For his own sake you'd think he'd want to be playing regular football, either in the U.K. (Championship?) or overseas.

I agree; he should be going out on loan. United may have lined up some clubs for him, but Brandon Williams may not have been keen on joining them. Either that, or some of the clubs that were interested probably didn't want to play him regularly.
 
Tuanzebe’s contract is up this summer so that’s him done at United. Unless we activate the extra year, which I assume would have been done by now.

Club could be doing a sink or swim with him. Needs to prove he can stay fit and show some signs of reaching his potential or he's gone. It would be a shame, I had high hopes for him.
 
Tuanzebe could have been a top player honestly but sadly he's made of glass and injuries have robbed him of valuable development time.

Yeah will always have that night in Paris when blunted two of the world's top players

Imagine doing a briefing to be like "look guys, we are competent!". We're so cringe.
Not everything is a fecking briefing for fecks sake. Imagine being this cynical that you can’t even be happy about the club signing a player in a coherent fashion.
 
Ridiculous post. Damned if we do, and if we don’t. Some folk have nothing good to say about the club they ‘support’.

I don’t get why so many of these doom posters and highly critical types are United fans. Football is a sport that tends to bring massive lows and only occasional highs. There’s usually high levels of stress involved and when it goes wrong it can feck your entire weekend. Why, if you are the type to be highly sensitive to such things, would you be a football fan?

people need to stop listening to Olly Plimsole on the United stand and getting their opinions from him. I bet he was ranting his balls off yesterday about the club being useless right up until the Sabitzer news broke.

This is a very smart signing, you only have to look at his stats for progressive passes and expected goals scored/conceded per 90 when he is on the pitch to see that he will bring both defensive and offensive elements to the team.

I’ve a feeling he will end up making us not miss Eriksen quite so much, and I don’t mean that as a slight to Eriksen at all, he’s been very good, but he does tend to tire after about 65 minutes.
 
sabitzer is a definite upgrade on either fred or mctom. i'm quite pleasantly surprised by the news, and the fact that we're not spunking 50m on some has-been at the last minute.
andy carroll though - what a pr1ck.
 


"United plan to welcome a new goalkeeper, a younger midfielder and a striker in the summer as permanent arrivals. Bankrolling inflated deals for imperfect options would have been senseless."

The fact that neither signing has an option to buy included hopefully points to a determined approach to getting the right player for the team in the summer. Sabitzer and Weghorst are the best available now but won’t be in the shortlist when we’re making a permanent signing.

Can't fault how we've handled the last two windows.

I wonder if we're still firmly focused on De Jong for the 'younger midfielder' role.
