he's hardly played LW since he's been here, dont think he's had two back to back games in that position. being tasked to run about a bit in a broken side or defensive side with zero Creative players as a CF is a thankless job

Tel is a talented footballer, he'll come good
No more bayern rejects please unless olise or musiala. Kim jun mae no thanks.
You need two but yeah right now we just need one... and no Kulu is not a 10 so his return does nothing for our complete creativity void.
It increasingly looks retarded. That and Kinsky. That's £47 million crazy with holes we have save some for Flange. Inexcusable incompetence
I doubt the premise, but I pray for the eventuality.
You literally said yesterday that signings are only a part or success, and then when this guy intimates that you can buy well but it not create instant success (most notably because they’re tactically frail) you ask what signings are there for?
I wrote a reply to you yesterday which you haven’t responded to, but it’s quite clear that signings are A PART but not the be all and end all of success.
Right now, Utd have done some objectively decent business. Our window is very very average.
You’re a walking contradiction and all over the place.
Isn't that what a load of spotty sixteen year olds do in the school halls at lunch time. I reckon we have a team of people flying in and out of football matches wearing ridiculous sashes with In Levy We Trust embroidered on them.
Spot on.
Let's be real here, we haven't even done the bare minimum this window which was to bring in 3 top players.
We have signed Kudus who has just come off the back of a poor season. We all know if Kudus had actually played well last season he'd be at Chelsea right now.
We signed Palinha on loan, he's a decent player who should hopefully do well, but it's not ambitious move from us by any stretch.
That's it. That's our window so far.
We've lost Son for good, and Maddison for a year. Failed to sign a top LW, failed to sign a top 10.
We are light at CB, when VDV misses 3 months of the season inevitably, we will have Danso (and nobody decent to rotate him with) and Davies filling in.
We have no back up to Udogie. Spence cannot cover both LB and RB on his own across four competitions. So Davies will have to fill in.
it's a shit show.
That isn't even talking about all the goals and assists we've lost from the team.
I do not know what fans expect, but my optimism for the season has vanished.
Simply put, who will create and score our goals? Tel and Odobert have absolutely no record to suggest they will score 6 goals between them across a league season. They might get 3 each.
Johnson is our best goal contributor and he shouldn't even be starting.
Solanke has struggled at times and can't seem to stay fit.
I just don't get how the club can be happy with the squad, a ridiculous amount of faith is being put on two really young kids in Odobert and Telvto perform consistenty, it's insane.
Whilst United have signed Cunha and Mbuemo will have a proven record in this league of delivering goals and assists. It's levels.
How about a white rose? Glads don't do a blue and I'm never red.....Feb is a long way off though so can't promise anything, the season might have seem me off by then.
How we didn't go for Eze on day 1 of the window still boggles the mind.
That Himothy guy (yeah, I know) implied that Frank doesn't want him
Must just not want to come to us, seemed the most obvious transfer in the world considering our squad needs.
My brain sucks at math, help me with this one.
Real Madrid has a 50% sell-on clause for Nico Paz and ALSO has a right of first refusal for any deal.
So in any deal Como is only getting half the money.
That means Real Madrid can exercise their right of first refusal and purchase Paz themselves for HALF what Spurs would be paying, right? They only have to chip in the share of the money Como would be getting.

United have made some serious moves this summer, I’m fairly in awe of their transfer activity and wish Spurs had even half of that ambition to improve the squad.
Like us they finished bottom of the league but have actually faced up to that fact and invested accordingly. Hoping that Frank is going to turn this squad around into a top 5 team is simply naive, I see more protests in the future.
