    It’ll be a bit strange when Amad is playing against us this coming season, for us and him.

    He’ll receive one of the best receptions for a returning player at the SoL

    I think it's key to see who we sign first because then we can get a vibe of what actually is achievable for us, it's clear from a lot of the links to defenders we are after experience

    He ha
    He gave the fans the middle finger, the fans were on his back towards the end of the season. He is constantly showing his love for the lads on social media, if given the chance I think he would jump at the chance to come back. Man U will be looking to unload a lot of their squad after a very poor season by their standards, he could be one that they let go

    He didn't he gave people who were mocking his name 'diallo' the middle finger, he hates that name which is why he goes by Amad now

    One Indonesian man probably isn't the best representation

    I think they were calling him amad Traore, which was the name he had to use to immigrate to Italy and pretend to be someone else's brother.

    Sure he signed a new contract late last year. It will be pretty tasty.

    Yep. Though UTD do need some cash in mind.

    No Europe, low finish, poor team, even interest fading in Asia (they don't follow "the shirt" there, they follow the winners). Not forgetting the endless rapacious behaviour of the Glazers.

    They do but I can imagine Amad will be welllll down the list of people they need to get rid of. He’s young, versatile, still performed through a shocking season showing great attitude and his wage will be one of the lowest at the club.

    And on the off chance they do decide to sell him he’ll have a whole host of clubs playing champions league football after him.

    Definitely. I'd say he is far outside of any promoted teams reach. He's only 22!

    If they sell him, they might as well pack it in.

    They've just spent 65 million on a player, had another bid of 55 million for another.... they def don't need money

    Their wage bill has massively dropped as well, they are in a pretty good place financial (well except for the glazers debt against the club but that's another story)

    They need to generate funds if they want to sign more players, that's true but they don't need to sell which means they aren't going to accept a small bid for a player that played well last season for them

    Yeah I don't mind as a squad player, we need a real x factor CB imo and he isnt that but he's def a better squad player that Tanganga imo

    Defo mate. He is a cracking player, I’d love him back. If we could even pay a few million for the season to take him back on loan at the drop of a hat I’d imagine we would be all over it. It’s a shame he’s at United he’d be thriving in a better team.

    A united fan at work said to me on Monday 'you better not boo my man Amad next season', I said he would get a better reception from us than he will ever get from United fans

    That’s one of way of saying you’re going to be in the relegation scrap this season. If they lose either Gomes or Andre in the middle they’d be in real trouble imo. Can see both of them having some interest this summer
