Inter in talks to sign Ashley Young apparently.

Bit of a daft move letting him go considering Shaw is useless and Dalot is injured most of the time.

Rather than send all our players to inter and watch them be coached by a proper manager, wouldn’t it be simpler to get a proper manager?

So, the last 4 years everyone is crying (including me) to shift Young. And now suddenly everyone says we should keep him. We have Dalot, Shaw, Bissaka, Williams. What's the problem to let him go? If someone gets injured, we do have a youth team to cover, or am I wrong.

Sooner Shaw had the manners to admit he isn't good enough for our team and pisses off . Young is much better at both defending and also is a threat going forward.

100% agree Ziko. Laird is a good prospect at full back as well so he could fill in if there were a few injuries.
Our season isn't going great anyway and while getting rid of the likes of Young, Matic, Lingard, Jones etc would weaken our squad numbers, people (including me) have been hoping for years that we would find a way to get rid of the players who clearly aren't at the standard needed. This is a chance to do so and subsequently if he wants to go I'd say we should be fine with that.

Maybe because u can't include Shaw or Dalot in that list because neither can be relied upon.

And Young is more reliable? Shaw is better at defending and are both awful when attacking.

Shaw is better at defending? Do you actually watch him play? The guy is awful he's never in position for a start. Young offers more defensively and gets forward also in support where as shaw never even gets forward he just stops and passes it back. So in answer to your question, yes he is a lot more reliable.

He gives a hell of a lot more than Shaw. Plus Shaw's been injured for a lot of his United career. Same goes for Dalot.

If Young goes to Inter, and I wish him the best of luck if he does, that just leaves DDG and Phil Jones who have won a Premier League title with United in our squad.

So jesse has joined forces with mino, if this somehow ends up with him getting a bumper new deal then we are the biggest laughing stock in football. This guys had 0 goals and 0 assists in 2019 and he's only ever shown flashes in his whole career, if he was 20 then I'd understand oles continued support but he's 27. Why do we as a club continue to praise and facilitate our players brands and fill our squad with mediocrity all the while paying one of the biggest wage bills in world football? .

Reminds me of Paul Scholes bemoaning Danny Welbeck being sold, another pundit pointing out Welbeck's goalscoring record and Scholes saying ' we all know Danny's not a goalscorer'.

Goals and assists aren't the only measures of a player's worth.
Don't get me wrong, he certainly shouldn't be getting a new deal with a big pay rise, but I think a lot of people on here don't understand how much he offers because they can't see beyond his lack of goals and assists.
Lingard is the Park Ji Sung of the squad. He runs a lot, and it's intelligent running, whether it's on the attack or pressing. That contributes a lot to our effectiveness against big teams who come out and play rather than packing the defense. It's against smaller teams who pack the defense where we need someone different, because Lingard simply doesn't have the ability to open up a packed defense.

Park involved in 40 goals in 154 games, Lingard 27 in 129.
Although Lingard plays more advanced and if it wasn't for his purple patch his stats would obviously be a lot worse.
Park was far more consistent and better all round player for me.

Park could actually tackle and pass.
Lingard is the embodiment of the state the club is in. His main attributes are speed and stamina. These will start to decline with age. What else does he offer?
- can’t pick a pass
- doesn’t score regularly
- poor tackling
- positionally suspect, tendency to drift
A player like him would have been shipped years ago in the 90s and 00s, and would have found his level with a bottom half side. Today he’s on over £100,000 a week and is a key squad player.
Football 365 just awarded him worst player at a top 6 EPL club. Given that he’s an attacking player that hasn’t scored or assisted a league goal in over a year, it’s hard to argue with it.

His first touch is dreadful. If Pogba was fit he would not get a look in.
Hopefully his goal in signing with a new agent is to get a good job somewhere else and not to negotiate a better deal, which United would be mad to agree to. If he gets a good transfer then fulfilling that goal will go one better than the accumulation of his on the field goals and assists for United.

I think Park was a good player but to compare his stats to lingards is harsh Park was in 1 of the top teams in Europe with some of the best individuals in the world
Lingard clearly isnt.
