    On paper I think he’s been their smartest appointment for a while but it’d be pretty funny if he turned out to be another de Boer.

    Big job on his hands too.

    Wan-Bissaka and Maguire need replacing, Pogba’s off, Fred and McTominay are Southampton calibre players, Sancho battled Lukaku for flop of the season, Rashford’s average, Cavani’s also off and Greenwood’s a ****,

    It's a huge summer for them... If they get this wrong this time they'll be in serious trouble. I mean other clubs are really gunning for a crack at the top 6 in the next fews years.

    Yer welcome.

    Maybe when you actually win something it'll be all down to you.

    Like Stevie Me's Villa cocking it up against City for Livpl to flop the title. Yeh that will remain funny for years to come tbf.

    In terms of our players you mention, in each pairing - Bissaka/Maguire, Fred/McTominay I think one is **** and needs to be offloaded, the other could still yet prove to be quality given a decent player to partner them and working under a decent manager. Maguire and Fred namely.

    Sancho and Rashford aren't **** either, they've had a poor season but let's see how they do under TH and with a few decent players added to the squad.

    Maguire had a shocking season but in general the problem for him will always be his price tag, not his fault but you lot paid about £45m too much for him and on that note he’s always gonna be looked at as a flop/ **** player.

    Wan-Bissaka is just ****e. Surprising though because I thought he looked great at Palace. Wanted him at Spurs after seeing him there, bullet dodged I think.

    Don’t rate either of your CMs one bit to be honest. Their your Harry Winks’.

    Rashford’s pretty average, cracking bloke though, lot of time for him on a personal scale.

    Sancho the jury’s out. I thought he looked great in Germany but then it’s widely acknowledged it’s a lot easier to stat-pad over there. I think similar to Maguire you over paid by a fair bit. May come good but his debut season was a disaster.

    Nobody's going to give a toss about Maguire's price tag if he comes good with a decent CB next to him.

    Wan Bissaka is good enough defensively but no good going forward and that's failure in the modern game, so agree he needs to go.

    Fred's possibly the only player who's not only improved but played well. And that's coming from someone who wanted him out a year ago. He is definitely one who's individual performances were overshadowed by the ****show from those around him. A decent CM next to him, not Pogba or McTominay who were crap, and he'll be more than good enough.

    You're judging Rashford and Sancho on one poor season, when the club was in freefall. I've been following football long enough to know you don't write off players based on that. Otherwise Evra and Vidic would've been shown the door and we'd have not seen one of our most successful periods.

    As much as our squad wasn't the bees knees when we finished 2nd, it's also not as **** as is being made out 12 months later finishing 6th.

    He’s had Bailly, Lindelof and now Varane along side him, that’s about £100m+ worth of CB’s you’ve paid out on and Maguire’s still been average for Utd when partnered alongside any of them. Unless you go 3ATB then he ain’t gonna have another CB to partner him either as not a chance Varane drops to the bench. So the price tag is still gonna be talked and laughed at.

    If Fred’s your best midfielder then no wonder you’re finishing outside the top four.

    I’m judging Rashford on far more than one season. He’s a decent squad player, nothing more.

    As I said with Sancho, jury’s out as to whether he’ll be a long term success. Debut season though was pure ****e, between him and Lukaku for flop of the season.
