This strikes me as one of those deals where some are bit down on it, then he does really well. Loads of ability, with a point to prove. Being freed from the pressures of that crumbling shit hole might help too. It clearly weighs heavy on a lot of managers and players.

If it goes badly he's here for a few months.

Hopefully. But what if he's ace for four months, we sign him permanently and then he reverts to turning up late for training?

Another plus point for this is he won’t be cup tied in the FA Cup

Our bench is paper thin. We are getting into the business end of the season. 5th in likely a CL spot. FA Cup round 4, CL last 16. We need depth and options across the squad. Ramsey has a history of injuries. We need defensive cover also. But having versatile attacking midfielders, wingers and forwards could be huge down the stretch.

Where is Rushford supposed to play? Ramsey and Rogers are playing really well.  Does he have bailys place? Where does Malen fit in? We don't need Rushford.

Malen will be on the right and interchangeable with Bailey. Emery wants Rogers at 10, as we all should. If Ramsey gets injured, who plays on the left right now? If Watkins gets injured, who plays up front? We're in the last 16 of the Champions League FFS.

We need a left sided attacker who can play up top. On short notice, Marcus Rashford is, qualitywise, easily the highest level we can get. People read too much into the mental stuff. A fresh start makes a difference.

I reckon if he'd left those school dinners alone he'd be having an easier time of things too.

The clubs officially  lost it

Stop being such a titty babby. We're bringing in a highly-coveted striker on a four month loan. It's hardly the last days of Rome.

What a absolutely  terrible idea. This is going to be a expensive disaster.  Thank god its only a loan
We can look forward to you slagging him off after he scores or creates his first goal for us.

The buy option is interesting too. What is valued at today? And it’s great incentive to the player to get out Manchester and write a new chapter to his life and career.

It will be great to see the likes of JJ, Rashford, Rogers in behind Ollie with interchangeable players like Barkley, Malan, McGinn etc also ready and available.  On form, this is a no brainer, always been a handful, lots of England caps, a decent man.  If his head is on straight. 

The reason they want rid of him is he doesn't take training seriously and refuses to track back. We'd be doing Man U a MASSIVE favour taking him off their hands, even for a few months.

Except he's clearly not coming in to be cover. There's not a chance he comes to us other than with the expectation of starting. So who does he displace? You'd prefer him in the side to Ramsey?

Highly coveted? Who else wants him?

Rashford or Felix would be great. Ramsey might be put out by it but as much as I love him he should have no qualms as his injury record testifies.

It will be interesting to see what shape he’s in and if that’s actually the case when you joins us

Actually, Barcelona. Which you might feel is incredible but it's true.
