Manchester United are in desperate need of a defensive midfielder. Mainoo has clearly shown us this season that he is more of an 8 and we now need someone who can sit behind him and do the ugly work. Here are 3 players I think United should be looking at to fill this hole in the squad...

His "profile" was perfect. Remember we, Arsenal and Liverpool all needed a CDM. His profile was perfect, young, PL proven, played in a decent possession system, press resistant, decent passer, great in ground duels, tackles, interceptions. I mean if Liverpool were willing to pay 110M, then surely he is good because we know what Liverpool's transfer strategy is all about. It might be the case of him not being utilised properly at Chelsea and the insane 115M price tag doesn't help him. I am not sure but we had the opportunity to sign him for 5M back in 2019/20, but are board was ignorant.

@@orumwenseese4693 oh yeah 100% agree, combination of multiple reasons, 1. Lack of depth 2. Intensity of playing style - ie box to box runs in a counter style with fast attacking football - think ten hag has underestimated how fast the prem is 3. Attitude - like you say - players who care more about the wage than putting 100% into the pitch like look at Bruno, gives everything and has missed 1-2 games in his United career 4. Lack of possession - long time without the ball = long distances covered, leads to fatigue and result of fatigue means lack of oxygen to the working muscles, leads to lack of atp(energy) and oxygen to allow respiration = injury Keep the ball and it’s less frequent. 5. Frequency of games - basically a lack of recovery time I’m saying the obvious reasons here, there will be countless more

Fofana is the one imo, we desperately need a defensively sound but intelligent ball playing CDM not just a ‘leggy destroyer’. The silver lining in all the chaos with the club is the first Summer transfer window, finally having structure in place to bring the right players in and finally get rid of a lot of these players is genuinely really exciting. This will show us what Jim and the rest are really about.

INEOS know the French market very well, because of Nice obviously. We ridicule the French League but immense talent comes out from there. Look at Madrid signing Tchuoameni, Camavinga, Mendy. The entire 16/17 Monaco squad was sold like the 18/19 Ajax side. If Fofana is more technical and press resistant, we must go for him. Also, we must keep Kobbie in mind because his partner should compliment him, so we need like a hybrid no.6/no.8. Those who actually try and understand ETH keeping aside the banter and criticism, he loves rotations, so that dual 6/8 role would be ideal. Ruben Loftus Cheek would be an unpopular shout (3rd/4th option in the CM list) as we need that physicality uk.

Agreed, Sir Jim needs use the knowledge of the French market to our advantage and get quality players for a good price. That league produces high level players because the amount of kids from African and Caribbean heritage that want to be the next Henry, Zidane, Viera, Benzema, Kante, Desailly or Makelele means it’s a pressure cooker for talent.

Yaa, I hope he and Branthwaite shouldn't be our priority signings. They are decent options but that would be lazy scouting from us to not look outside PL. Everton would obviously slap ridiculous fees for both of them given their financial condition. Imo, we should be looking at 5 players for 25-30M each instead of going for expensive signings and then get a loan or free signing here and there, because squad overhauling has to start NOW.

Onana, Fofana, Wieffer, Hjulmand, Weigl, Martel, Locatelli, Pepelu, Kessie, Sangare, De Jong, Laimer… there’s plenty of good quality number 6’s (both defensive and playmakers) in football. I’ve only named a small few, the trick is finding a player that thinks quickly, makes good decisions, has a strong and driven personality who doesn’t let mistakes or bad moments affect him.

In my opinion, regarding all necessary positions, I'd say for the striker position, ivan toney or someone else experienced. In midfield, at cdm, youssou fofana. He's 25 and experienced. In defence, two cbs and one rb, todibo and anselmino at cb and geertruida from feyenoord at rb.
@matthewbaker2573
@matthewbaker2573 10 днів тому
said it before, ill say it again. i think Maguire could do a pretty good job as a CDM he's too slow for the backline but his aerial threat isn't matched by many - im sure that would deter long goal kicks from opposition to the wings plenty of players have changed positions in the middle of their careers, and if you straight up compare him with Casemiro - he's better at defending, bigger and stronger. United need to replace those out of contract position for position any more than that would be a huge shift in the squad - look at what has happened to Chelsea from bringing loads of new players in who don't know how each other plays. anyone that has ever played football will tell you it's easier to play with friends than it is with strangers - same thing

United need two players in midfield amadou onana and one other , the biggest question united need to ask is, if mainoo gets injured who is replacing him ,likewise Onana(if united get him).

Same can be said for other positions .

We need 3. The problem is that we have so much mismatch in profiles. Erisken is a 32 yr old who likes a slow passing game. Casemiro is a transitional player (not technical as Kroos and Modric did all that) whose best trait is a destroyer (which he can't do anymore!!) and then there is Scott who has suffered alot as a CM because he IS NOT A CM, a SS at best!! Amrabat was a last min loan signing whose primary trait is to keep it simple and he turned out to not be that technical and press resistant as we thought. Mount, who actually is a technically sound player has been injured. So, how can a manager implement one set style with such profiles!!?? I think if we want 3 new CMs, they have to be in that 25-35M category, they NEED TO BE TECHNICAL and physically capable and Casemiro has to go to Saudi, so that we get atleast 35-40M and most importantly, offload his huge wages.

I think his primary job would be defensive, press resistance and quick and efficient distribution to the Mainoos. He’s proven to be able to do all of that. And even if you use the Rodri example, his first year was horrendous (in the standards of City, who still had the amazing Fernandinho) and grew into the role. You can give some room for growth too, and his current abilities are more than enough to make our midfield more controlling and difficult to run through.

I'd have loved to have seen us go after Nicolas Seiwald when he was at RB Salzburg, but since Leipzig have got him, he's barely played.

The defensive midfielder is the weakest position in the current United Squad . I would actually buy two of the three players you have mentioned . Onanas size and power makes him a great squad player . I probably lean towards Fofana over Wieffer because of his speed because that is an area that we lack defensively . The bottom line is any of the three payers you have mentioned would make great additions to the current squad

Sign Fofana and Onana. Start next season with them, Mainoo and McTominay as the 4 main midfielders

I love Onana, I think he's the perfect partner for Mainoo to grow with. Not the most technically lifted player on the world but not bad. Has good passing range, not Scholes or anything but skmethingnwe miss when we have to play Mainoo and McTominay as a pair. Ten Hag has experience with players like this (Alvarez at Ajax) and they have a role. I disagree with Mats Wiefer though. Feyenoord use him a lot like we use mctominay and he's never involved in the first phase of buildup. Defensively he is decent but he's so skinny I think he'll struggle in the prem. I would personally avoid. I haven't seen Fofana play at all so no comment lol but I hear he is good.

My dad's and Everton fan so I've watched loads of Everton this season and Onana is nowhere near United quality. He's a Mctominay without the goal threat. He gets benched by Garner and Gueye loads too.

Utd need to buy 2 dm’s. One to play and one for cover or the option to play both. Otherwise you are just bringing on McTominay as a sub next season as the squad depth is shite.

I like Douglas Luis at Villa. If it's one thing we're missing, it's leadership and character. I think he has the arrogance to walk into a United midfield and tell people what to do. He's aggressive and athletic, yet composed and creative. Perfect man to cover Mainoo.

I like him but if we are talking about CMs I don't think he is it. He strikes me as an 8 always going forward. Mcginn is Aston Villa's defensive midfielder

Premier league players cost more. It's a typical united mistakes recently to over pay and not cover the areas of the squad due to running out of money. We need about 7-8 players so these guys from France and Holland if scouted properly make more sense.

Wieffer 100% for me, good at dropping into and behind the back line. Timber has done well in tandem with Wieffer for Feyenoord as well this season in the league.
