    The fact it hasnt been bounced suggests it is in my opinion. I would imagine admin to get him here is a nightmare.

    Biggest joke going are the report now. Completely embarrassed themselves given they are a officially fanzines levels. Main writers deactivated their Twitter. Full of noncence and bull.

    They went really strange.

    Seem to think they are special. As useless as RAWA.

    It is, 30 is not old now. He’s got a good 3-4 years at the very top, at least. Look at Modric…..

    I'll be disappointed if the "one or two" coming in includes this Costa Rican kid, I love a flyer on a random wonderkid but we need a handful of starters coming in as well to finish the squad

    Interested to see how he gets on, he's good at breaking up play but def needs a ball player alongside him. Having Kroos and Modric alongside you for years means you dont need to be great on the ball

    This is exactly how a 2 should work. Man U play 2 break up players in fred and mctominay, but in him can play a footballer with him because he is so good. People in our fan base who want 2 break up players, and Dan Neil gone, are wrong in my opinion. The 4231 is built around a deep lying playmaker, and a destructive type, never 2 destructive types. Casemiro means both fred and mctominay can be benched - massive shift in how they play.

    I think that's a lot more sinister than what you were actually meaning :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Chelsea play with Jorginho/Kante
    Liverpool with Henderson/Fabinho
    Spurs with Hojbjerg/Bentancur

    All defensive midfielders more than creative.

    I think it just depends on who you have in the midfield tbh. If they’re good enough they can be both the playmaker, not get caught out too often but when they do they have the legs and defensive ability to stop the attack.

    Think united still need someone else alongside him. Eriksen is better as a no10. 2 destructive players can work depending on fullbacks and the attacking 4 in front of them

    I don't think he's as good as Rodri, but it's a squad game and he's more than good enough to get regular games for them.

    He could play alongside Rodri and KDB. Gundogan won’t be there for much longer I’d imagine nor will Bernardo
