Why is nobody raving about Breel Embolo? Been watching this kid for about 12-14 months now and he is the real deal. forget anybody else for wide right, this guy is as good as Martial if not better. I'm confident he will set the Euros alight!

He definitely has a lot of talent and all the tools but like all young players you never know.

I mentioned the guy a while back and got slaughted for it!
I know he is another young prospect and doing well at Basel, just have to hope it doesn't turn into another scrap among the bigger interested clubs?

With the execution Of martial we are not the sort of club that buys outside the UK youngish players.

Ronnie, to be fair, you've mentioned every young player in European football at one time or another.

So remind of the MINORITY in our junior squads ie, u18, u21 with overseas names?
Exactly, European names!
Who made first team appearances over the last 2 years?
Varela
Fosu-Mensah
Pereirea
All overseas.
See my point? Homegrown maybe? Overseas, definetly!

Do we know when 2015/16 squad numbers will be revealed? PS. thanks for all the great work Eds!
{Ed004's Note - Probably before the first game of the season but may change before the window closes}

Now that we have LVG at the helm have our previous transfer targets completely changed? What about Vidal, Garay and Carvalho?

At the risk of sounding like Ed02, RTFP!

Looks like my wish may just be coming true!

I've said for ages. Enbolo is THE boy to watch! I really want him at Utd!
07 Jun 2016 21:05:35
Really do hope so. I like the look of this guy!

Zlatan knows how to milk it but please don't go too far mate. you or any other player will ever be bigger than Manchester United Football Club.
06 Jun 2016 01:26:55
I hope so redcon.
08 Jun 2016 01:35:35
Mesut Ozil. all day every day.
07 Jun 2016 03:19:56
Ascensio could fit but not sure about Berardi and besides he's on loan from Juventus!
06 Jun 2016 22:14:41
I want Varane too but he's injured at the moment so all possible suitors will tred with caution. bring in other CBs and then your price won't get pushed quite so high by RM in their usual eBay/ transfer tactics!

Interesting post and great stats redseven. thanks! I was also encouraged to read earlier today that Maureen's most expensive signing to date is Diego Costa at £32m. There are also some media presented stats that show him as being the biggest spending manager over the last 10 years but we mustn't forget he has also pretty much been in constant employment at large European clubs during that time whilst others have either come from less wealthy clubs (Pellegrini), coached at international level (Van Gaal) or taken time out (Guardiola) . The only credible manager with a lower spend is Wenger but most football fans also appreciate that he has a particular talent for producing Champions League worthy squads with a very average budget. similarly, SAF was able to integrate promising youth players into partially expensive squads!
Whilst I'm only just coming round to the idea of Maureen being our new manager (and I do still have some doubts) I am hoping that during the lengthy consultation period (we all know it's not just been 2 days) the likes of SAF and SBC have been able to demonstrate exactly what our glorious club expects and deserves. Likewise, I remain positive to the fact that Maureen has realised the magnitude of the opportunity he is about to undertake and does so with a less abrasive, more discernible and thoroughly gracious manner. I just hope that he wants this to work as much as we do. because if so, this could. this really could be a match made in heaven #believe
From this moment forward I will no longer refer to him as Maureen. you will simply be know as Mo. #ibelieveinmo.

My choice would've been Loris Karius. been a big fan for about 12 months now but he's just signed for a really bad team. forget their name!?!?!
