Da Laet out AT in? So is he a right back cover or is it Elphick out AT in.I don't know if Bruce is doing favors here as he will have to be behind JT and Chessey to play CB however after Terry back from injury he may need managing and sensible to get cover. When I see Baker doing so well at Bristol City I do wonder why he was essentially traded for Samba. tuanzebe may also be looked at as a left back cover and it would be great for one of these less established and younger loan players to make an impression like Sam Johnstone has. Onomah is nt a guarantee starter and I think this man utd loaner will be similar. Games here and there with some great performances.Despite agreeing that wondering how fit in first 11 he would be a squad player at least and I'll take for want is. Seemingly a promising player who has ability and is keen to play. However having seen onomah only do some very good play but as well as looking lost and even lacking in standard play the consistency may well not be there in A.T. either. I think this signing will be okay and helps out situation in adding to squad and not to disrupting to established players.

Watford managed it ok True, but I am not sure that our track record of buying lots of players in one go and successfully blending them swiftly into a coherent unit is the best
In the pictures of him training he looks like a bit like a young Kolo Toure

Newcastle bought in six players last Summer, Brighton added eleven and Huddersfield acquired thirteen.In any case, it's unlikely that Ax-T will go straight from the Championship to the Man United first team, so I wouldn't be surprised if we loan him for another year if he's successful.

He's probably the quickest player at the club. Given his reading of the game being pretty good, that recovery speed covers a huge multitude of sins at this level.I'd be surprised if he isn't sat behind the front 5.
