Mourinho seems to be tapping on Verrati by sending him text messages..I see him as an ideal replacement for carrick..i guess Mou wants the same counter attacking play he used at Madrid..with xabi alonso at the heart of it and super quick wingers..

Put on that classic Jose charm, Boss. I'll say this again and I don't care about getting downvoted again. For me, Verratti is twice as valuable as Pogba. He can do things to control games that Pogba cannot dream of doing (right now).

Crazy how amazing he is. He rarely loses the ball too. He would be my dream signing and the best midfielder in the league, if we do get him.

That's because they're not alike at all. Verratti is a player that can control the tempo of a match by winning the ball back and distributing it intelligently. Literally a metronome.

Pogba is a midfield powerhouse who uses attacking prowess, physicality, and technical ability to score goals and create chances.

You literally can't say one is better than the other based on their individual strengths.

Amidst the Verrati rumors, any news on Andre Gomes? Seems like rumors about him died down after the EURO started.

Also, City seems to be preying on Sane... What do u guys think about Sane vs. Embolo?

[–]GGMU1992Jose Mourinho 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

I really like Embolo and my Swiss friends sing his praises like I've never seen them do for another player, but I've seen more of Sane and if I had to choose between Sane and Embolo, I would choose Sane in a heartbeat.

Think he mentioned Jose again in a press conference recently. Idk why people sound so unhappy about him though, he's an amazing player

What are you all's opinion on our supposed €100m bid for Veratti?

How does he compare to Kanté(who'd cost considerably less if he were to choose us over everyone else, even with his release clause only pertaining to CL clubs)?

[–]bobo2908Martial 0ポイント1ポイント  (4子コメント)

Personally, I think that they're two different breeds of midfielders. Verrati is more of a playmaker and likes to dribble himself out of trouble.

Kante, on the other hand, is a very similar player as Carrick with a higher work rate (defensively at least). He positions himself well and disrupts opposing team's tempo by making interceptions and getting into tackles.

Depending on who we field, they each serve different purposes. Verrati (IMO) would play well with Schneiderlin/Blind who are more defensively disciplined, allowing him more freedom in the center. Kante, on the other hand, would probably suit Herrera (and even Schneiderlin) since he can make track back with his high work rate to cover up for them when they move higher up.

Edit: paragraphing

Kante is nothing like Carrick. Kante shows up everywhere on the pitch while Carrick is slow and spends 95% of the time right in front of the back four spraying passes around. If anything Veratti is much more like Carrick.

[–]RnC_DevHerrera 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Kante is much more comparable to Ramires (in his prime).

Makelele for me.

Thanks for the info! I wish there were more time in the day so I could watch more players.

So, what you're saying is, we should be in for both?

    Not if Zlatan comes, imo.

    edit: also let's face it if he comes well and truly good he will have the clout of madrid over him, and I can do without that thanks

    I'm of the opposite thought. Think we should get both. Atm Morata can't be relied upon to get 20-30 goals a season. Can split that goal scoring duties between Morata, Ibra and Rashford with Martial doing his thing on the left.

    People might disagree and say it'll affect Rashford's development but you gotta realise he's only 19 and has got to take it slow.

    [–]StannisJrScholesy 8ポイント9ポイント  (2子コメント)

    but you gotta realise he's only 19 and has got to take it slow.

    He doesn't need to take it slow. He has genuine top potential and the only way he's going to refine his game is by playing as much as possible.

    Having Morata is going to get in the way of his development because he would also be a long-term signing. Morata isn't going to want to go from the bench of Juve to the bench here. He'll want to play ahead of Rashford/Martial so fuck that. I'd rather not waste 60m euros on a player of Morata's quality who I personally don't feel is anything special either. Get Zlatan and use that money for other parts of the squad and then Rashford can rotate with Zlatan for a season or two.

    [–]MorningFresh123Herrera 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

    If Morata was English he wouldn't be rated half as highly.

    I agree but the OP's scenario was what if we get Morata then what signings would you like and I replied to that. I totally agree with all your points I was just stating another scenario/possibility.

    [–]PX44 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Morata is painfully average.

    I'd rather give one of the other youth strikers time than shit millions down the drain for a Spanish Welbeck and cut off Rashford's playing time.

    [–]knoxisbackTevez 1ポイント2ポイント  (2子コメント)

    We also have Rooney and Martial who can play if injuries become a huge issue. Morata was very poor last season; I dont see any point in trying to sign him esp with the fee we'd probably have to pay.

    [–]yuma712I’m gonna go on the piss with Georgie Best 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

    Yeah true. All of the replies make sense. I just don't want to see us get Morata (if Jose is hell bent on him) and miss out on Ibra.

    [–]knoxisbackTevez 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

    I'd be surprised if there isnt at least a verbal agreement between Ibra and Mou that he's coming to United. Not much to worry about in that regard.

    My main worry is losing out on players like Mkhitaryan by waiting too long.

    [–]0lberdingHandsUpAndShaw 0ポイント1ポイント  (3子コメント)

    Rashford's development and confidence both might be stunted by buying Morata. And where does your scenario leave Memphis?

    [–]yuma712I’m gonna go on the piss with Georgie Best 1ポイント2ポイント  (2子コメント)

    Don't think after this season we can count on him or pressure him to deliver. Not sure what's gonna happen.

    [–]0lberdingHandsUpAndShaw 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

    Big risk = big reward! Even if he tries and fails, there's always January to try for another striking option.

    [–]yuma712I’m gonna go on the piss with Georgie Best 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Think time for risk is over. We need results now in the league, for that we need winners. But I haven't given up on him yet. Giving him #7 was a bit premature in hindsight.

    How was he today? I only saw him tackling the linesman

    [–]ijd17Uncle Ant 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

    not that great imo, positioning wasn't the best and was caught offside a lot
