Bissouma works if you keep Pogba and make Pogba the main passer from the 6. Just think the need for a sitter/screen/disruptor and a passer was always more needed and important than signing Sancho.

Been saying this from the jump. We need a proper DM before Sancho. If not Ndidi, then Bissouma. Especially if we keep Pogba

Low-key Sancho is a vanity signing for the board/Ole to try and save face from past transfer failures. I know United need a RW but it's not like you don't have players you can use there for the meanwhile and also need the game time to develop themselves in Murda James and Amad.

100%. The funny thing is Sancho doesn’t have the blistering pace on the wing. If anything he prefers coming in a bit more central, which is what Greenwood is doing for us at the moment. Amad and Greenwood can deputize the RW, while Cavani and Mason run CF.

There’s also the Martial conundrum.

United needs a dm with good passing rage but can also do the dirty work

tchouameni would be ideal, if Ole insist on playing with a midfield two(:scust:). they need good passing from their midfield besides Pogba.

but I want Pogba at psg :unimpressed:

Sancho does defensive work. He isn't a totally liability like Hazard was at Chelsea.

Sancho doesn't look any better defensively than Hazard to me. :yeshrug:

I would hate for Tchoumanei to go to Utd :damn:

Even tho Santos is a football terrorist. I wonder if Portugal would be far better off with C dot retiring from international football even tho that has 0.01% chance of happening. Still kinda see him making it till Canusico 26. :manny: But he should call it quits after Qatar.

Or at least let someone have a chance at taking a free kick if he continues playing :lolbron:
Because he is not good at taking them

He needs to take more free kicks like he did vs Spain in the World Cup. Then again he does have history of going over a year without scoring a free kick. To me it just looks like his legs/power are showing their age but because he looks after himself he doesnt move like a 36 year old so it masks the decline in that department

I'm just sick of seeing DJames on the right for united. I just want someone who's happy to play there with some balance and quality. The right hand has been neglected for so long.
