The Man Utd thread (3)

That’s not really that hard to do, but on the other hand, it is fucking Spurs!

He wanted Anderson…

Then Fernandes…

Then Tchoumanei…

Then Scott…

Gonna be awesome when they end up with a midfield pair of Kobbie and Fred.

So FrObbie is the new McFred?

Does make me wonder why they are struggling so much.

I don’t think I’ve seen him play - how good is he? Another youngster that Chelsea flipped for profit?

He’s fine, not one that’s going to keep me up at night honestly.

I swear this is some PSR money laundering nonsense to repay them for taking Garnacho off their hands last summer.

Supposedly played 2,400 minutes for Chelsea last season but I challenge anyone to remember a single thing he did in any of them.

Yup, literally haven’t a clue who he is.

Surely United would be better to go for Manzambi

Short-termism United at it again.

That’s a pretty meh move.

Though I also understand they’re left incredibly thin in the heart of midfield at the moment.

Left basically only with Mainoo as a serious option and he’s exactly the player who will keep Tielemans out of the side most of the time.

For all Tieleman’s talent, he’s the sort of guy who has no fight.

Expect him to be one of the first to undermine the coach especially when United have a tough couple of matches. He’s done the same when he was at Leicester.

They can’t help themselves. They’ve been talking all summer about signing a marquee midfielder instead of the best midfielder for their needs.

I guess from their view though, it is a budget signing, so leaves them in better shape to spend big on another target.

Precisely. I assume the clause is so low because they got him on a cheap (or on a free), so Man United are getting a very good, PL-experienced midfielder for what is considered peanuts in modern football.

We did get the likes of Shaqiri on the free as well. One would assume Tieleman’s is a replacement for Eriksen.

Such a brilliant well thought out quality set up aren’t they…

Villa will finish above Utd.

Shit move.
