Think we will pick up a few cheap options, Rabiot, Tielemans, Madisson etc if we can get a few in cheap it may allow the big spend on a CF.

A couple of years ago I would have been keen on Tielemans but he's just not progressed much at all. Even on a free I don't think he'd add much to the squad. Maddison as well is one of those players who's career just hasn't taken off. A player that enjoys the disco lights at 2am more than a good night's sleep is not someone we should be looking at. Not all players that get relegated are poor but that Leicester squad lack motivation and professionalism in my opinion.

Rabiot is a very good player and will be an asset to whichever club he joins.

Rumours are circling busily about the Mount bid and the idea of using McTominay as a makeweight for Rice.
The idea of a player-plus-£50m+ outlay for Rice and maybe £70m for Mount would surely demand the exit of Fred as well.

Irrespective of whether or not the above is even feasible, Rabiot would be darn expensive, hard work and, like Maddison, would want assurances concerning the regularity of appearances - I suspect Tielemans would be a more suitable squad option if United bought one or two bigger name midfielders.
All three are decent players who I rate, but I wouldn't say any of them would be guaranteed starters in any system at United.

The primary focus should be improving on first-choice options.

Hope the Rice rumours come true amd he hasn't already settled on Arsenal. Think he would be a massive signing that would drive the club forward.

Mount on the other hand I just find hard to swallow the figures being banded around. A player coming off the back of a not so great season, and entering the final year of his contract surely can't be more than £40 million?

Sure, Mount and Rice are best mates. It's a cert ?.

Mount and Rice would be incredible additions. Although I think we are likely to see Mount and a free move for Rabiot as we will need to invest big elsewhere in our striker options.

Ideally we also need a CB and possible GK. feels like full backs can wait for another season with Dalot signing a new deal and AWB playing well. I’d expect to see DDG sign a deal and we buy a decent back up - I’m all in for Meslier.

The most Manchester United thing to do at the moment would be spending the whole summer negotiating the price with Chelsea for Mason Mount, only to agree to the original asking fee on deadline day.

mount hasn't impressed or stood out as expected and would/ could be expensive and i cannot see the value rice brings at the prices mooted- good player but not a player you could realistically say is worth 100m . Personally like sms and think his price would be favourable plus possibly rabiot on a free? gk onana or costa with kim cb . If we can get bailly, maguire, williams and telles as well as henderson and mctominay off the books it could well finance the ins and wages leaving transfer budget for the much needed striker/ cf position.

Mount and Rice replacing McTominay, Fred and Van De Beek with Mainoo perhaps getting some small opportunities is an almost ideal scenario for our midfield.

It would give us 5 excellent options in midfield with a good balance between defensive and attacking players.

Undoubtedly it'd be a huge outlay, particularly with a striker still being so badly needed. However, very few good sides lack depth in midfield and it has hurt us this season when Casemiro and Eriksen have both missed time.

I think the two midfield signings will be Rabiot and Mount.
A top class number 9 and Kim from Napoli.

Please not Meslier as a GK option. None of the Leeds players coated themselves in glory in the last few months but he had some right stinkers. Unless the coaching staff are convinced he has whatever these mystical skills are ten Hag wants in his keepers, avoid avoid avoid.

At the moment if I was to guess our signings I'd say Mount, Rabiot, Højlund and a keeper most likely Diogo Costa.

Shappy, swap Mount for Rice and throw in Kim and that would be a perfect window.
