Not sure how likely it is, but I read over the weekend that United are prepared to let Daniel James go. Seems premature if we do, IMO. Whilst he tailed off towards the latter half of the season, I still think there's a decent United player there. Works his balls off, great attitude, blistering pace, and still so young.
However, if we're in for Van De Beek, as well as Sancho, you'd wonder where the room is for James. Van De Beek would hopefully mean the end of Lingard and Pereira though, which would be most welcome. Still not 100% sure which system Ole is going for, btw. I trust him completely, as his signings have been exemplary, but that midfield and attack needs a consistent system to fit around. Pogba, Bruno and Rashford have to be automatic starters, but not sure on the remaining 3 positions... |

hate predicting lineups but maybe.. DDG AWB Maguire Linda/Bailly Shaw/Williams Matic Fred/Mctom VDB? Bruno Pog Tony Rashers that's extremely narrow though with a diamond midfield. I have no idea how pogba and Bruno will fit together, let alone throwing in VDB if that happens |

Madrid obviously want Ajax to lower the price, our name is yet again dropped in to get Madrid to cough up... Now Madrid have put all the pressure back on the player who apparently already agreed to go there. |

I can see it working really well, but the question is who plays the holding role? In a 4-2-3-1 I have liked the Fred and The Scottish Player partnership, but Pogba could also play there against the dross at home where we dominate the ball and largely play in the opposition half. No idea who I'd pick as the sole holding midfielder in a diamond though; Matic is well past his best, The Scottish Player seems better as a box-to-box power player, and Fred is a bit erratic to hold such a tactically important position. However, a diamond does seem the best option considering we need to find a system that means Martial and Greenwood aren't permanent substitutes. A diamond midfield, with 2 strikers up front, will mean plenty of games and rotation between Rashford, Martial and Greenwood, but 1 up front probably mens 2 unhappy strikers who aren't playing enough.. |

All of Rashfords good form last season came playing on the left with Martial through the centre, dont see any reason why that would change. We desperately need a player for the right side and that's the front 3 looking good, backed up by James, Greenwood and Ighalo. Fernandes has the spot behind the striker, probably backed up by Mata. This all hints toward a 4-2-3-1. That's where the questions really start. Can Pogba play in a two? Does Ole want him to? Personally I think we need to sign a proper defensive midfielder who can protect the defense against the better teams and dictate play against the teams that sit back (Carrick mk11). Then it's a straight fight between The Scottish Player and Fred for plays alongside him, backed up by whichever one loses the fight and Matic.
