Newspapers reporting today we not only need a quality DM but also need a proper Right back at last people are seeing the light aleluluah

What surprises me it took them so long to realise, even Ole and the gang finally realised in the summer hence trying for Trippier

But does show another 50m wasted by Ole, and could go with the 80m potentially wasted on Sancho.

I disagree, AWB is a very good player, and I honestly don't know what you were watching if you are going to blame it on him.

Could he be better offensively? Sure, but he is far from a bad player you all keep calling him.

T…. I really don’t see a top 4 player in there at all I’m sorry, if being good means all the last ditch tackles he make, most of them are because he is so far out of position in the first place, he is prone to fall asleep and lose his man, that’s the defensive side, going forward he slows up play something chronic, just watch him, he gets ball, stops turns looks back more, then forward, never ever does he play a 1st time pass he needs to control ball first then think about a pass that split second makes the difference at that level.
If Trippier gets signed or AN other in Jan AWB will be 2nd choice that’s for sure.

I've seen rumours of United looking at Nordi Mukiele at RB Leipzig, from what little I've seen he's sililar to AWB defensively, can put in a good tackle, but offers more going forward and even scores the odd goal. Probably just being scouted. Just hope Trippier isn't the solution.

{Ed002's Note - Nordi Mukiele (RB/CB) RBL have again been approached by Atletico Madrid over the availability of NM as a Trippier replacement but he is not top of their list aand RBL are looking to him extending his contract. PSG had him on their list of RB options in the summer bit opted for Hakimi. A number of sides have been sendings couts to watch the player including Manchester United and Chelsea. Prior interest of Spurs left with Mr Mourinho, but it may have reappeared at Roma. RBL has no interest in selling.}

Thanks Ed. I thought a scout or two may have been spotted and as usual turned into a news piece. What are your thoughts on the player?

{Ed002's Note - There are better RBs out there.}

Problem is ED002 none of the better Right backs out there are at united!

{Ed002's Note - I expect there will be other priorities next year.}

Hopefully Ed002 that’s because this Right back one is solved in January!

See now papers reporting Kelvin Phillips next year, another headless chicken to run around and kick people! So probably right for us!

{Ed002's Note - If Dalt leaves in January then Manchester United will need to find a replacement.

Jackanus,

I know you’re all over the page at the moment and some of your posts have been fine but the hyperbole saying we have wasted £80m on Sancho, first off it wasn’t £80m, secondly he has been here a month, it’s ridiculous to say the money has been wasted after 1 month of a 5 year contract.

GDS2. I think you will find it was virtually 80m after all fee’s were paid.

In my view it is wasted, totally, when you got Amad and pellestri who not even been given fair crack at all, and Greenwood is more productive in that area then Sancho, so that 79.6m could have been spent more productively elsewhere in more needed areas, specially when Ole is scared to play him on right because with AWB right side would be a liability.
