Why would a testimonial for Phil Jones even be in discussion? He wasn't even a full-time starter on the only title winning team he was a part of.
have seen little to no mention of buying a left back until that tweet, given Shaw and Dalot aren't there several other areas of need we need to worry about more than LB?
Dalot is a right back, Shaw is unreliable because he can't stay healthy, and then there's Ashley Young. Midfield is the most pressing concern and we could use another forward, but I would put left back as a top 3 transfer need. I like Williams. The kid has played better than expected but nowhere close to good enough to scrap transfer plans. Competition breeds success and we don't have enough competition at a lot of positions.
I'd say we need two forwards(right wing and striker depth) and least 2 midfielders(lack of any semblance of depth is why we drew Sunday) before we need a left back....and Dalot has played least one game and has an assist at left back...
yeah and do you not want all of that more than a left back....and are we even talking about replacing Pogba
his impact on the club seems light to earn discussion for testimonial. A quick glance shows he has not many more caps than Rafael did.
Phil Jones impact on the club is laughable considering SAF once said he thought Jones would end up as one of United's greatest ever payers.
Shouldn't have lost this match. Astana were so poor. Also if Ole is truly committed to youth then Garner should be getting all of Pereira's minutes.
Seemed like he was burnout and maybe needs the time....which worries me and blaming Ole when it’s a squad that misses McTominay and has to regularly play Periera seems silly
Even with the thin squad, starting Pereira at this point should be a sackable offense. He's so unbelievably bad.
The good thing that has come out is we have seen youth rise. Brandon Williams. Greenwood (hopefully sees more playing time). Daniel James. Not to mention Rashford is young. we need quality center mids.
Pereira is definitely what this game needs. It better be for Lingard and not one of McTominay or Fred.
Victor Lindelöf’s game by numbers vs. Spurs: 100% deceive aerials won 100% tackles won 80% pass accuracy 10 ball recoveries 4 clearances 0 fouls Quality.
