Hello Ed002. I am not intend to ask or shoot on a random name. but with your detail insights it suggest that most or Jose targets are still target. so the player I would like to ask about is Justin Kluivert. Are United still tracking him? What's players status? He was very highly regarded as Ajax player but not settled at Roma. if you have time, please some information?
{Ed002's Note - Actually it is a very good question that I have been sat on for a few weeks. Justin Kluivert (LW/RW) would be a OGS pick and after a poor season in Rome offers will certainly be listened to. He has been another Monchi disaster that has not worked out (and he is not the only one) and I have to say he could be used as a bargaining chip to perhaps eae the extraction of a player from Manchester United. OGS is seen as very much a soft touch and he could potentially be a player those that deal with transfers could use to keep him happy. I hope this helps.}

Are you able to say who the utd player is ed? Thanks.
{Ed002's Note - It surrounds Pogba.}
09 May 2019 19:00:46
Amazing share. I never knew my question would bring cat out of hat.
So far his name is not mentioned anywhere and I guess if he was target than, he might be under monitor. and who knows while in EL, he can come in and settle.
09 May 2019 19:03:07
If you don't mind my asking, in implying a player to extract do you mean a player roma is interested in or somebody who Ole is desperate to keep but the hierarchy want out?
{Ed002's Note - No, it is nothing to do with Roma wanting a player.}
09 May 2019 19:04:17
Roma interested in Manchester player? Anyone other than Darmian?
{Ed002's Note - No.}
09 May 2019 19:17:14
Thanks ed much appreciated.
09 May 2019 19:17:41
Is he represented by Raiola? I thought Ed will say Darmian. but Pogba?
{Ed002's Note - Sure.}
09 May 2019 19:22:13
OMG. he is also Mini Raiola player. I think by asking this I have hit a jackpot Ed002. You are a star. no a galaxy.
09 May 2019 19:30:53
Both Kluivert and Pogba share an agent, so moving Kluivert to United might "grease the wheels" so to speak with Pogba leaving.
I liked the look of Kluivert when at Ajax. I think he might be a similar case as Depay in moving too soon.
09 May 2019 20:09:38
Who sees OGS as a soft touch and is there any truth in it, if so was that why he was appointed?
{Ed002's Note - Everyone.}
09 May 2019 20:27:45
So how long do you think he will last?
{Ed002's Note - No idea.}
09 May 2019 21:21:07
A left or right side player I ask?
{Ed002's Note - ?}
09 May 2019 21:24:12
I’ve never really seen him player so was wondering what Kluivert’s best position is.
09 May 2019 22:09:09
He hangs to the left.
10 May 2019 10:19:26
People can take ole at face value as the nice young baby faced player he was
But he was under a manager who took no nonsense. I would be very surprised if ole hasn't learnt how to be harsh when needed.
Plus I've heard from within someone of the club he has ripped into the players a fair few times since he's been manager.
Anyone watched klivert to give a view on how he is as a player?
When pogba hopefully gets sold I hope we use some of the money to try and sign neves and saul. would be 2 good signings imo.

Thanks Ed002 for all your insights and information a always - we are very lucky to have you.
Glad to hear there seems to be a will to move on Pogba. In my opinion, he is a negative influence at the club as it seeks to rebuild. I really hope they find a way of moving Sanchez on too.
Interesting to hear about OGS being viewed as a soft touch. I guess this attitude could have positives (ie handling sensitive players) but also negatives, such as more business-savvy people taking advantage. You would hope, however, that others at the club would intervene and not let this happen.
Thus, my question Ed002, if I may please, is that is it just people in the football business (ie non players) who see OGS as a pushover, or is it the players as well? And, to take it a step further, is this possibly a reason why he was appointed, as he wouldn’t argue with the board or contest decisions in the media like JM? Essentially a “yes” man with no real bite? (Please forgive the crass assumptions and my ignorance of how the game works! )
Hope this isn’t the case as we need a strong personality with a forward thinking vision (shared by his team) if we are to unravel the mess we are in and plot the foundations for a new era.

Ed002. the red devil reply was completely out of character, was it your P. A? Ha .
11 May 2019 08:37:56
If you don't mind me asking Ed, how would Raiola's ban affect this, if it affects anything?
{Ed002's Note - I am not sure what you are referring to - I don't know what "this" is. His ban has no impact on Pogba moving to Juventus if that is what you are referring to.}
11 May 2019 11:47:21
Thanks Ed, I was referring to the Pogba/ Kluivert element mentioned above, with both players being Raiola clients. How exactly would the ban work if you don't mind me asking? Reports across various news outlets claim it would prevent transfers of his players, but it would be harsh for the players to be penalised for whatever he is being penalised for.
{Ed002's Note - Mino's ban is for three months. Pogba can still move to wherever, and Kluivert will be able to move during the transfer window.}

Sepp, one doesn't 'hang', one 'dresses'
{Ed025's Note - i think your right there shappy..
