    Favorite of the whole lot, by far. There's something to be said for clever simplicity. It's a nice play on his name and it's positive, which the thread title ought to be...

    At that price, he better be (which I believe he is btw). Very confident in what he'll bring to the team as well once he adapts and finds his footing.
    Very hopeful he'll provide the balance we need in midfield and along with Matic/Herrera will provide the platform for Pogba to consistently shine.

    Can't wait for Mourinho to not play him throughout the first 15 games of the season!

    I just read that he’s 5’7” and 137#... wow... never realized he was that small.

    The main USP he has is that he’s so small and nimble. I can imagine Jose not trusting him in games where he definitely ought to be playing, though.

    Fred will shine at United - Willian

    www.squawka.com/news/fred-will-shine-at-man-utd-says-willian/1039444

    Yesterday's footage from the Brazilian camp with many of the players taking time to warmly congratulate Fred on his move, coupled with the way he is spoken about as well by others, says a lot about his likability. Which will only help him hopefully integrate quickly into the team.

    A pretty obvious pickup for United, given our needs and the available alternatives.

    That's not a nice thing to say about Jones.

    Fingers crossed on this one for sure. As we've just seen with Bailly this past season, an ankle injury, if it's serious enough can really put you out of commission for quite some time.
    Being reported pretty much everywhere as a major news story does not help either...

    Fred will not play a part in Brazil first game as not fit according to Brazil manager.

    Also apparently we have not officially signed him yet as not agreed personal terms (also waiting for work permit which is less unusual) - hence no formal announcement.
