I guess its first time some media outlets have linked us with Ruben Neves. Fans here always regarded him highly and always wanted it to happen. Any of the Ed feel he can be a viable target right now for January? I guess at right price wolves will sale. Provided " Ole feels him as right player". ( well when Ole is so fond of Jesse and find him right. he should find evryone as right)

Neves is an excellent player, I'd love to see us sign him. However, I'm sure sides who are far better than us will be looking at him for the summer.

Speaking of Jesse, I read something today about a possible player plus cash deal for Maddison, £40 million + Jesse Lingard for Maddison, I hope this has some truth to it.

I for one think that Leicester would be delighted to take a player on £100,000 plus in weekly wages, and contributes at least one goal/ assist per season.

Herbie, I think Jessi Messi is worth less than a packet of crisps. He is virtually useless in every way. Yet, Solskjaer keeps on playing him. Him, pogba are everything that is wrong with our club. They should've been sold ages ago. The fact they're still here reinforces Eds views that the manager and club are worse than amateurs in their dealings.

AAA what a ridiculous post.

{Ed047's Note - why’s it ridiculous angel?

'I think Jessi Messi is worth less than a packet of crisps. He is virtually useless in every way'. pretty ridiculous, those 2 sentences.

{Ed047's Note - ah ok angel I was concentrating on the other parts which are pretty accurate. My bad mate.

Angelred, it was a bit of humour re the packets of crisps. But as Ed agrees, the club is shambolic and the idea that anyone is willing to offer £40m for Lingard, is so ridiculous, it borders on the absurd.

If I was a club looking to buy lingard, and I can't see any wanting to do that, then I will not be paying £40m for him or even half that price.

I don't think Jesse is anything more than a back up player at most. But every manager since Fergie has had the chance to get rid of him, and haven't. In fact he's probably played less under Ole than under the others. That's just a guess, by the way. I'm too lazy to do any proper research on it. I know we can blame Ole for several things, but holding him to be at fault for Jesse still being here doesn't really seem like one of them.

Stevie, you’re a trooper, but I fear you cannot hold back the tide.

Agree nou.
Ive always maintained that jesse can command a squad place. But he has dipped badly over the past 18 months.
With his form as it is he is at risk of losing that squad place and being sold. A new manager may help him get some form back. As i say he was never prolific but an ok no2. Sadly he is not even effective as a no 2 at the moment.

I like jessie, bad run of form and confidence has massively dipped but he is a squad player and not first choice. I reckon he'd also benefit with better players around him and of course an actual coach.

Lingard is useless, contributes nothing and at least a packet of crisps provides a bit of enjoyment.
