Can't run? Have you ever actually watched him play? His best attribute is his pace with his top end recorded as about the same as Adama Traore.
Have I read this correctly? Hoijland is as fast as Adama Traore? I've never watched him and thought he was particularly pacy. Traore on the other hand is get you out of your seat fast.

Yep, look back at all the reports on him in the first few months and it was all about them signing him for his pace and him clocking over 35km/h fairly consistently. That's pace on a par with Traore and Diaby.

no chance we’re ever going to be interested in Hojlund
One thing I do agree with saddvillan on is you can’t write any player off playing in Utd’s set up over the last few seasons, it has been bereft of any decent coaching

I don't think it's the coaching, I think it's the attitude of the squad. I get the feeling half of them refuse to be coached and think they're it just because they've been signed by ManU.

^ That's definitely it. Too many individuals. They'll go through the motions in training and then do whatever they want on match day. They're not a team at all.

Garnacho off to Chelsea it seems (good job too as they’re in desperate need of attacking wide players with only the 74 they already have stockpiled). Was always a long shot I guess and difficult negotiation with that lot given they want Martinez on loan/Watkins for a fiver.

🚨 NEW: Unai Emery is keen to keep Marco Asensio on a loan deal — no financial agreement has been reached with Fenerbahçe.

I thought he’d signed for Fenerbache but evidently not, he’s training with PSG.

Why would we need to reach an agreement with Fenerbahçe if he hasn't signed for them?

Check his FIFA stats.  Acc: 86  Pace:84   or bang average as it's otherwise known.

I think the original text is that Asensio / PSG have not reached any deal with Fenerbache, hence the link with us.

It doesn't say that we would. He / PSG haven't reached an agreement with them which is why we might still be able to get him

I'm not sure I'd want Asensio back.
