Karsdorp-Wijnaldum-Pellegrini-Spinazzola ------------------------Dybala ------------------Zaniolo-Abraham Or when they need to secure a result and play safe. Karsdorp-Wijnaldum-Matic-Spinazzola ------------------------Pellegrini ------------------Zaniolo/Dybala-Abraham The haters will hate badly this year.
I'm disappointed we seem to be chasing Wijnaldum over Fratessi - too bad we have too much dead weight refusing moves to make the space for both.
It’s too bad Friedkins weren’t here when Totti and De Rossi came to the end of their careers. I imagine the ending for both would have been much better than what they got.
In the short term I think Wijnaldum will be much more impactful, but agree I would love to have both.
Still a pity to see Shomurodov end like this here, more like the team playing style doesnt match his character.
Belotti in for Shumo and Gini in for Veretout; looks like good business to me. Getting Peres off the books is an improvement as he contributes nothing. A shame for Shumo but the late Dzeko sale really forced us to sign a striker, unfortunately for Shumo, Abraham ended up being able to give more than Dzeko so his minutes were greatly reduced.
Not only that, but Mourinho seemed to prefer Afena to Shomurodov so he didn't even get that many chances off the bench.

Good move for the lad. Thought he was good under Fonseca (one of the few). Mourinho instantly knew he had no future when he arrived though. Good luck to him
Yeah I like the idea of signing Wijnaldum for making us solid favorites for a top 4 finish this year. Definitely understand the reluctance since a purported 3 year deal that's not cheap for a 32 year old is certainly a financial risk. However, that he at least stays healthy and plays well this season would kind of make it worth it even if we get stuck paying him too much down the road.
Surprised by the Belotti links. Hard to play more than three of Dybala, Abraham, Belotti, Pellegrini and Zaniolo at the same time. Then there’s also Felix and SES as well. Unless you go with a FIFA line up Abraham-Belotti Dybala Spinazzola-Wjnaldum-Pellegrini-Karsdorp Can’t see Belotti coming here just to replace Eldor on the bench. Especially when he can go to Toronto and double his salary. I’m assuming he’s coming here to start.
You shouldn't forget that between the league, EL and the CI that there are 50-60 games to be played next season. That's a lot of minutes to go around. There are always the inevitable injuries to endure too.... I imagine he'd be very keen to come here, even if it meant sitting on the bench more often than not. But I think he'd see plenty of game time.
There'll be enough games and if there's a chance to get him we need to take it. Don't forget that both Abraham and Dybala have a release clause that could see them leave next summer.
I am pretty sure Belotti is meant to be the first option off the bench. His stock is not what it was 4 years ago. There will be plenty of chances for him to start with the amount of games we will have too
There’s teams in France and Spain that are said to be interested in him as is MLS. Just seems strange he’d prefer being a back up option for a EL team rather than being a starter somewhere else. He’s only 28.
Eric Bailly is fully open to joining Roma. Mourinho has other priorities at the moment but the time for Bailly will come. [@AlfredoPedulla] #mufc— The United Stand (@UnitedStandMUFC) July 30, 2022 I think Baily is a great addition if he stays healthy. And that's big if.
He is loan signing and we will split his wage with psg , it isn't financial risk at all Very good player, good ball carrier,n press resistant and what i like the most is he plays a simple obvious pass and doesn't waste thing which will greatly help the teammates Box to box and hard worker, it would be like having a serious and diligent version of paul pogba.
