These two don’t quite add up. I’d go with the latter one, based on my altercations with the Dutch.
Vote Ve(hoarse rasping)orrst?
I mean by some rumours, we initially contacted Burnley about this in late December. There must have been some legs in this for a while given Weghorst felt comfortable enough to involve a goodbye in his goal celebration the other day.
I agree we don’t have prime examples of phenomenal planning, but given the options we have available this January, it seems we made an appropriate engagement with Burnley/Beskitas. Understandably it may have taken a bit of time because Beskitas will understandably feel wronged and will want to source out a replacement for Wout before agreeing to release him from a loan.
If Besiktas plan to keep him they must take into account that they'll be keeping a deceptioned player. Theres no way that Weghorst will happily let the chance to play for us fall through and continue as if nothing happened.
Best so far for me. Except it was Solskjær’s song.
Shoot! Shoot! Tip of your boot!
That is the thing you can’t do withoot -
Come on! I’m talking to you, come on! (Repeat)
Do we want another player with the name Maria?
Can't say I'm super excited about this but it's another forward, a body where we have few and he is tall, only thing I've seen of him was that cameo vs Argentina were I did like his attitude, both teams played and acted dirty but at least he did not let them walk over him and got a couple of goals. So I can probably only get positively surprised
So a loan seems fine, perhaps with a buy option as well just as long we still go and get a main striker next summer. Did he play under ETH before? Seem to think I've read it in this thread.
Anyway the muppet in me wants a signing already haha

Quality content
It’s so very rare that we can ever do a deal that isn’t lined with complications, regardless of the quality of player involved.
Good player. Exactly what we need sometimes. A big mofo.
6 months? More like 6 weeks. If Ronaldo stayed until the end of the season we wouldn't have signed anyone until the summer.
We were streets behind when we brought back Cristiano, but now we're streets ahead because Ten Hag is making decisions.
FFS, even Bensitas playing hardball for a 30 years old player. United is broke mate, stop grinding us for pennies
Several factors you need to consider:
1. I doubt if they had anticipated having to tear up the Ronaldo agreement right before the World Cup -- and needing to find a replacement in December. The cnut has to take the blame for this.
2. I suspect ETH has a very specific type of players he has in mind during transfer windows. Our scouting team is new and they are probably coming to terms with what ETH wants. So I am sure there are plenty of strikers in their database. But not many that suit what ETH is looking for in December that's available.
3. We are skint so there aren't many choices you can afford (at usually a premium) in January.
4. The Glazers are selling -- so anyone in their shoes will not be willing to splurge for an investment that you will not see any returns on.
So as far as planning, its all work in progress since ETH only got here at United some 6 months and a bit ago. And when you consider all those factors and have a Venn diagram we are left with very specific options -- we have to thread a needle to find the one that ETH wants and needs.

Benfica would love to get paid from this deal.
Wout is a pressing monster. Again that in itself doesn't mean much.
Most Premier League Pressures per 90
| PLAYER | PRESSURES |
|---|---|
| Wout Weghorst | 33.2 |
| Kalvin Phillips | 28.7 |
| Sean Longstaff | 27.3 |
| Allan | 26.7 |
| Mathias Jensen | 26.2 |
| Pierre Lees-Melou | 26 |
| Connor Gallagher | 25.6 |
| Mateusz Klich | 25.3 |
| Fred | 24.8 |
Wow Workhorse!
????????????
Some of you all think if a player plays for Besiktas/Burnley he is some amateur street chav that United should be able to sign in half a day.
This guy is a world cup playing dutch national striker! These deals can take some time

Gallagher is not no.1? Every time I watched him playing (West brom or crystal palace), he was basically a pressing maniac!
The problem is we don't have time with the fixture list pile up,really needed him as a wildcard option against City but alas not to be
Would also have taken Depay back for a bit more forward line depth too,however sounds like from Romano it's not an option now
Wouts happening with this? He signing or not?
You know any deal with us is complex,especially when there is a third party involved as well
Woutfully he's available on the bench vs Palace away at least.
Well that gives us just over a week
Depay is a left winger. Garnacho, Sancho, Rashford already playing there. Man Utd doesn't need a fourth player for the left wing. Forget Depay.

You should hear what they say about Wout,
They say he'll never never never ever score two,
Whoa-oh, it doesn't matter what they say,
I know I'm gonna cheer him all the way,
What can I do, when it's true,
No Vince, no Felix, no Memphis,
'cause Wouty it's you.

I am Wout. (pronounced woot)
Depay is more like a left striker now.
Wout, there it is!
Yeah that's what I thought as well
Besiktas being right d**ks with this deal. Can't blame them, seeing as they would never have seen this chance to make a quick buck coming. Hearing how desperate Wout is for the deal, he surely can't play for them anymore. He's only a loan player, so can they please sort out a deal quickly and stop acting all big?
Yeah ideally before midday on Friday
They have the option of buying him. And considering how well he has played for them they would have exercised that option of £10mill.
What would you do if you are them? They now have to get a similar replacement but at what price?
