Axel Tuanzebe - gone
« on: January 23, 2018, 12:50:15 PM »
According to Mr Percy of the Telegraph we are closing in on a loan deal for this fella.

I watched some of his clips on youtube and he looks a seriously good talent - got a lot of pace and always seems to be in the right place at the right time.  Assuming he signs I have no idea where he will play however.

Man U fan at work reckons he's the real deal. Fingers crossed he can do it at a wet Wednesday in Sheffield.

I know nothing about him or even his best position

He must be here to play as what is the point in having him or United letting him go on loan other than to get game time. Even if we sell Elphick he is not going to be a bench warmer behind Terry and Chester is he?

Surely Bruce is not about to change a winning formula to go 352 again?

Or maybe it's loan with option to buy in the summer!
Saving on the outlay this season.

Hope not, the team and formation need leaving well alone barring injury or loss of form at the moment.

You can't drop Terry or Chester. Not sure you should be dropping Barney either on current form, or dropping Jedinak down the pecking order. We certainly don't need to dropping Elmo either. Weird one if not cover for Terry and Chester and Elphick leaving.

Look like a central defender/right back from the Youtube video.  The new Micah Richards?

Cover for Elphick leaving and De Leat leaving while giving another option for defensive mid. Not really needed but if Elphick goes becomes a must.

Welcome. Two for one deal with Johnson in the Summer if he turns out to be good!

I would expect he will come in as cover for Terry and Chester especially the former. Terry’s been brilliant but he’s also in his mid thirties. Ideally this lad is the long term partner to Chester in the PL.

I don’t think he’s one that Man U will sell. But then again money talks and the top teams seem to do very well out of selling a few youngsters

He has come here to start surely? And Bruce has presumably given Mourinho those assurances. So, unless he takes over from Hutton/right back , I can't see the point in signing him.

Sounds like he’ll replace Elphick who we’re looking to flog.
