He isn't. Comes off the bench more often than not.

Bayern paid less than £30 mill for Mane a year ago. Same age, same contract situation, but better and higher profile. (I guess that Bayern went for Mane while Fulham is the one interested in Fred tells you what you need to know.)
There's no way we're signing Onana, Min Jae, Rice and Kane. That's probably 3 times our budget. Not too sure about Rabiot but Neymar is a hard pass. He doesn't try in France, he wouldn't have a hope in the PL.
I feel like any sale of Fred should be later in the window as there are quite a few players I would rather move on first.
Maybe Fred has expressed a desire to leave and maybe we want confidence on a fee for him before we commit to a price for Mount.

Despite his United career, it's a very fair price for a player with plenty of PL, CL and international experience
Pay up or feck off Fulham.
Tier 2:
Go back to football manager
Not counting the last two friendlies, where he wasn't available, in Brazil's last eleven matches, Fred came on as a sub three times, was an unused sub twice, and was a starter six times.
Jaysus... What the hell?
Can’t say I loved that tweet. I think he showed something exciting in pre season and is only 20 years old.
£1 million ? I didn’t realise we were back in 2000
Is it? The fact that Mainoo got an appearance over him this season says everything you need to know.
Its basically free with a sell on clause.. I dont even think Utrecht are a good selling club..
A little surprising, but probably didn't do enough.
Wonder how Charlie Savage does.. I thought Iqbal looked better in preseason..

It does tbf. Just thought he’d be better. I did like him in pre season.
Huh, you're right... I must've blocked those out of my memory. Mental trauma I guess. In more recent competitive matches Tite preferred a 4-2-3-1 with Paquetá and Casemiro in midfield.
I’d say £20m is our starting position and Fulham probably at £10m. We’ll meet somewhere around £15m.
Seems pretty fair to me.

And if our first-choice goalkeeper gets injured, would you trust us to use Kovar for 3 months ? I certainly wouldn't
Tier 2:
Its infuriating that academy players are going for 30m and we cant sell an experienced PL and International player for 20
Would you have trusted Heaton, Dubravka or Butland for 3 months last season? Is Kovar below that level?
If he is then we picked up the 3 mentioned for free or on loan so I’m sure we can find a solution.
What the hell, Liverpool, Chelsea and City be getting 15 million plus for their academy players, we get 1 million...
We got 15m for Garner last summer. This guy probably just isn't very good.
Looks like mctominay is going to survive another season as a united player on the technicality that fred has only one year left on contract
2 out of McT, Fred and DvB were likely to leave with us looking to sign 2 midfielders..
The market is based as much on potential as anything else. £30m on a promising young player who could be worth £70-100m is a gamble. It’s also a player you could use for 10 years.
Fred is 30. Has a game built on energy and work rate which won’t last as long as technical ability. He’s got a year left on his deal. Lots of reasons why he’s cheaper.
Agreed, I thought he'd kick on from there, but I think I read in the reserve forum PNE weren't even interested on taking him on loan in Jan when he had a trial.
Hopefully he has a good career in the game.
You wouldn’t know the names of the academy players those teams quietly sell of for a minimal fee. The likes of Jordan Ibe or whoever are the rare exceptions not the rule.
having the name zidane alone should have added 5 million on his actual value
More likely 7-10m. Perreira was 10m iirc and is much younger.
He will probably go too, Fletcher opening up the path for his kids
They can, but do they? From my perspective United are better at producing professionals than most.
Your last two paragraphs are a bit contradictory. I suppose you're arguing they'll get a better technical education elsewhere but at United they'll be have a better chance at turning pro? If so then there's clearly something United do better than most. What's the point in making kids good at football if they end up in careers outside of football?

I’d say Fred has a much higher reputation though. Brazil international. Cost £50m etc.
Yes but financial accounts would likely be analysed on a pro-forma basis until the takeover is technically complete.
I don't think it's like we'd physically need the cash in our accounts post takeover to do business.
Up to €1m. Awesome. Fair play we are outstanding entertainment in the transfer window year after year.
