Cunha is prem proven and clearly talented, but also a headcase. I do wonder if United as a relatively impoverished club could do more economical business this summer. There seems to be a £30m price on Rayan Cherki’s head for instance. Besides they do have a number of options for that 10 role already in the building. Far fewer appropriate options in central midfield though.
Cunha should be going to a team far better than United imo. He won’t play as the 10 there though because Bruno F is almost between an 8 and a 10, I think he’ll be the main man up top. Scary thought of him going to the mags and playing behind Isak with Tonali and Bruno G in midfield.
Think id heard Newcastle were interested in him as a RW, bit bizarre as I think he's better off the left and has basically never played on the right. Could work for Man UTD as one of Amorims 2 10s that drift wide but you're right he'd probably end up up top.
Honestly think his link up play as a F9 is amongst the best out there, would be absolutely wasted on either wing imo especially the right. I still think he’s the kind of striker Liverpool are crying out for rather than an all out 9 like Isak.
Probably could do a Jobe there yeah, he's pretty much always a left winger at wolves mind so wouldn't say wasted there.
Aye ironically his numbers are better this season than last where he was the striker more often but they had Neto out left!
put this together on players we actually own. couple of notes: - I would like us to sign Chris mepham permanently. - If we go up ELF will be ours permanently - I believe one of Rigg or Bellingham at least will be gone, but I’ve done this on a player by player basis and of course I’d like to keep them both. Any questions on my picks I’m happy to answer but also though this graphic layout of the squad would be good for people to form opinions also
A lot of players on our books who’re no good at this level, never mind if we sneak up. Busy summer ahead for sure
Just curious on Triantis, while I'm not against him getting another loan definitely wouldn't be my first thought going into the season would rather see how he is in midfield pre season. On that, any reason he's at CB.
I would definitely like to see Triantis given a shot at the first team....He certainly has great potential
Pembele, Ba, Semdo and Rusyn deals are all perm after the loan Povs deal was only for one year I think. I would say to Keep browne, and I hope we keep Nectar but Hibs want to make the deal full term and he has admires from all over
3 years for poveda wasn’t it? Can see him being paid up like just hasn’t worked rumours he’s a nightmare behind the scenes too, regardless of league I think we need a new starting right winger anyway
I think his CB days are well iver now. Hes spent the last 2 seasons playing CDM. I wouldnt be suprised to see Celtic or Rangers making a bid for him.
Wages aside we could probably sign both Le Fee and Samed on permanents and still have change left over if we sell Rigg. Not quite that simple with the structuring of deals these days but both of those would be solid additions to our PL squad if we do go up and we wouldn’t of even touched the money for getting promoted.
