Jadon Sancho

He’d be a brilliant addition, a proper United signing.

Fair points.

Unless we are going to splash the cash big time id be going for a DM first though then someone like Sancho.

He's still a great payer to have in a front three imo. And his finishing is improving. Reminds me of Rooney in his selflessness.

I disagree. I'd say our forward line needs top investment, we need to score circa 30 more goals a season.

we spent £130m on the defence last summer.

Our weakness since 2013 has been lack of goals. Fill the team with goal threat and options/variety from the bench imo.

Or stop £#%&!ing about and address as much as possible. That Soumare we keep getting linked with is available for £25m apparently. That’s £#%&! all

People laughing at pulisic obviously not watching the magnificent bastard

Yeah he’s a good player aswell. But ten times better than Sancho ffs? Nah.

Tbf the above rumours are probably just the usual agent bullshit.

We need to forget about this lad honestly. Attacking is the least of our worries.

Our £#%&!ing defence and keeper though Dave needs replacing, not sure Henderson is ready yet but can’t be worse than De Gea this season tbh and as for the back 4 would buy 2 full backs, A CB and give Henderson a go. Defenders who can trap a ball and pass. Watching us passing it out from the back is £#%&!ing torture the useless £#%&!ing @#%&!s

You can get the best forwards in the world but it's not going to be much help when you can't get the ball from the defender up to them.

If one thing needs sorting its our £#%&!ing distribution of the ball from back to front, It's £#%&!ing shambolic.

the way we deal with a high press is really £#%&!ing piss poor. We have no idea how to combat it.

Sancho, a top Centre back, centre midfielder and centre forward is needed if we want to mount a serious challenge for the league.

Tbf we’ve kept 13 clean sheets out of the last 20 games (I think?)

We need a left back and CB but this kid is a must have because we’re crying out for an actual right sided forward (Mason is the balls but his future is more centrally imo).

Williams will develop and then there’s also Axel, that other big lump in the academy and also Ethan Laird to hopefully add more depth to those positions.

A proper DM that can dictate the game is more important than defenders at the moment imo.

This. Need to upgrade the midfield and add to the forward line. If we can shift any or all of the redundant 5 CB’s currently on the books, then buy a CB by all means..

Agreed on Maguire btw.

Hope it was just the knock to the noggin that threw him off.

Bailly is a f***ing liability. How do we have so many players incapable of staying fit for 90 f***ing minutes? Him, Jones, Tuanzebe, Dalot, Rojo.. f***s sake

I feel pretty much the same, but I do think he'll look a lot better with a better partner. For a myriad of reasons, nobody currently at the club is good enough. And there's about f***ing ten of them.

Genuinely, honestly forgot that #@&%! Rojo is still here.

One point after we scored, he had the ball for about 15 seconds, running in circles trying to escape Chelsea players. Could've put the Benny Hill music to it. Hes £#%&!ing gash. Might do ok alongside a proper top rater but as the main man hes useless.

I thought we'd sold him last summer.

I'm going to check the squad list, probably find Mal Donaghy still on the books.
