McTominay is a raw talent with real potential. He's just not being developed. Put him with Pep and his coaching team and they'd turn him into a cracking box to box midfielder. It's one of the real tragedies in all this. Good and great players are being wasted and none are getting any younger.
He was just wandering about today. I agree he probably doesn't know what he's supposed to be doing but it wasn't a good look. I actually think he might be better off trying to be a centre half. He definitely will not make a top level box to box CM. No chance.
Would you go for Declan Rice or Phillps? The likelihood of either coming to OT is small. I don’t think the Glazers will fork out £80-100m for a cm. Yet atm it looks a glaring weakness in our set up. Every team we played so far (in both PL and CL) have put us under pressure. Even Newcastle.
Either would be great, I really doubt Phillips would come though. He's a die hard Leeds fan and won't come to United. I actually think Phillips shades it, by the way. Has a bit more presence about him.
He would fit as a tough no nonsense CM. But at the rate the GGs are taking money from the club, we probably could not afford to get one quarter of him
