Some other options for the positions James has picked: LWB: Alphonso Davies - contract expiring in the summer and has already been linked to us. Harry Amass (academy) - was rotated into the squad in pre season and occasionally on the bench this season. Technically great, especially in tight spaces and remember him overlapping well but questions over his physicality to play in a back 4 at the moment, less responsibility as a wingback. Alvaro Fernandez - apparently doing well for Benfica so far, has played in a back 4 and back 5. Cheap buyback clause. CB: Disagree with James here, no point in paying £50-60m on a player if we're not willing to give him playing time. Instead I'd go for the left side. Jarrad Branthwaite - linked with him heavily already, would be expensive but probably worth it in the long term. Godwill Kukonki (academy) - come through the ranks this year. 6'4, quick, plays either LB or LCB anyway. AM: Don't have a pick from the market but Shea Lacey from the academy is by many accounts the most exciting academy player in years. Plays a similar position to Amad (10/RW hybrid role) so would have to figure that out but very talented. Jack Fletcher (Darren's son) is a shout too. CM: Jayce Fitzgerald really impressing in the academy. CF: Chido Obi-Martin signed and offered a 3rd choice striker role apparently. Far too good for academy football and only a matter of time before he breaks through.

[@coachpoppavic]

Highly agree with the LWB picks. Davies seems like the perfect option considering hes left footed, one of the fastest players in the world, played as a winger most his life and has always wanted a more attacking role with Bayern but they won't let him - but he does play further forward for Canada.

The one who I’d love to come to Old Trafford is Eze, again it’s going to take a lot of money to prize him away from Selhurst park.

[@danchinho5210]

It seems that he does have a lot of stamina, but his defensive work is awful and he does too much/plays for himself in attack. If Amorim can sort out his attitude on both sides of the field, than he'd be a nice player.

This is your second or third video saying Pedro plays on the left when he actually pkays on the right and Trincao on the left. There isn't a world whete Mount remains and Fernandes drops out from literally any perspective. Rashford is tailor made for that left inside forward role that Trincao plays with a more creative player taking up the right half space.

Would you see Garnacho playing as LWB? If he does, I can't imagine Rashford as the left 10 would work with Garnacho there; they'd get in each other's way.

@CoconutJewce 1. That is a matter of instructions. 2. Calling it "Left 10" is a misnomer, he'll be an inside Forward.

[@pedromirorodrigues]

You're wrong. Pedro Gonçalves plays on the left, Trincão plays on the right. They're both wrong footed, they both cut inside. The first is more of a playmaker, more creative, the latter is more direct, 1v1

[@lourencothomaz981]

As a sporting fan, our wingbacks are more wingers than fullbacks, or at least one of them usually is. Nuno Santos, Geny Catamo and Geovany Quenda, they are all wingers.

I see Nuno Mendes as a major possibility in the summer for that LWB position, his contract ends in the summer of 2026, next summer will be PSG's last chance to cash in. I would prefer Davies but still think he's going to Madrid and would certainly command higher wages. Nuno Mendes is young, fast, direct, good crosser, he's not afraid of getting in the box, can play LCB if needed (has done it in the national team). It was Amorim who picked him up from Sporting's youth ranks, he knows the 3-4-2-1 inside out. He's definitely one to look out for in the summer. I can definitely see Diallo getting a chance, either as RWB or as the right-sided forward. Conversely, Rashford will have to improve a lot or he's going to have a really tough time.

[@rishi-2204k]

I believe Bruno, Yoro, De Ligt, Martinez, Onana and Hojlund should stay. The main concern is the wingbacks. We do not have players who are willing to run back. We need to get rid of Shaw and Rashford and invest in atleast 2 wingbacks, who can do a job on both the flanks. And then maybe a couple of centre backs to provide cover but every other position can wait. I strongly believe Harry Maguire could do a job in the middle of a back three, he could drift into the middle just like Stones at City and has a better passing range than him. We could play Licha, Harry and De Ligt as the back three. People just underestimate De Ligt's recovery pace and he could be amazing as a right sided centre back. We've got Hojlund who has the potential to be the Gyokeres for Man Utd.

[@benhester4144]

i generally rate James’ takes so much but there’s many wild takes here imo 1. the starting lineup based on what is available at the club right now is very different to the way i believe amorim would look at it (luke shaw would not be his pick to be lwb even when fit, one of the inside forward/10s will 100% be an inside forward such as rashford or garnacho) 2. you seem to be ignoring the fact that one of amorims strengths is actually coaching players not just assuming what they are, the lwb position for example will most likely be shared between amass and amad, and based on amorims track record of training wing backs i genuinely believe amad will become incredible, and that amass will also shine 3. i dont see a centre back coming in this summer at all, i imagine Maguire will be the central option until yoro is back and de ligt will be on the right for now, if not lindelof will be on the right, and i think amorim will be able to get enough out of them to not require another, also mazroui will probably get minutes at rcb 4. bruno’s best at sporting was in a much deeper role (where mainoo will likely play most of his minutes) but is also incredible in the half spaces on the right, it’s likely that he will be used in both of these depending on the game, but replacing him is not an option given he is one of the best in the league in two key positions

[@ChrispinJChiinda]

This may sound absurd but playing dalot at RCB could work but i mean that for tactical reassons because dalot has a lot of tactical uses , dalot is fast so he can help out when Playing fast attackers and he can move into midfield incase we need to overload that position of the field to play near the CDM

[@dublin7]

To fit in with FFP rules United probably won't be able to spend more than £100m on players this summer. Chelsea signing Sancho for £25m probably gives United a bit more leeway and they probably will move on from Casemiro, Malacia and Bayindir so they could develop more breathing room, so lets say £130m. Here are 4 Signings I think Ruben Amorim should make. RWB: Jeremie Frimpong: £40m - Lightning quick on the Right wing, great crosser, would add something new to the United attack. LWB: Alvaro Fernandez - £15m - Perfect modern day wing back who can attack and defend in equal measure. Great footwork. LCB: Gonçalo Inácio - £50m - The only Sporting signing. Ideal LCB for Amorim. Martinez can split his time between LCB and defensive midfielder. CM(8): Angel Gomes: Free Transfer in summer - Ideal back up for Kobbie Mainoo and can cover LCAM and RCAM. perfect signing.

[@BrandonMHN]

Hot take but I’d love to see him give Antony a go at left wing back

[@irongiant9352]

For the amount of Football you watch and analyse, its surprising the choices you make. Dalot will play RM/RWB. Bruno will play in one of the CAM roles just like Goncalves at Sporting. We're not going to sign another star CB, we would be looking for squad player that is a LCB for Martinez cover.

[@LonghornArmy]

Onana Yoro, De Ligt, Martinez Dalot, Ugarte, Mainoo, Mazraoui Fernandes, Diallo Hojlund would be my best 11.

[@femi_danjuma]

About Singo, as much as i like him and his potential, I think it'll be more useful to spend the money on other parts of the team. I think going forward, Mazraoui will play more as a RCB than WB. He is more experienced than Singo, can carry the ball like Singo does and also a bit press resistant like Singo. As for Palacios, he's one of my favorite players but too injury prone. I'll rather we go for Aleix Garcia.

[@George-x3v]

Wing-back is an interesting one. They do push high & wide and provide an attacking threat - but Sporting dominate most games in their league. In the Premier League, we're going to have to defend for periods of games, so the wing-backs do need to be at least competent defensively. Agree with a CB or two to replace the likes of Evans/Lindelof/Maguire. Also agree we need a midfielder to replace Eriksen/Casemiro. Not sure if Palacios is the one though, purely due to the fact he's had a lot of injury problems in the past. I still find it hard to believe captain Bruno, our most creative player, will be moved on. He's maybe not as mobile as Goncalves, but Goncalves isn't an athletic, quick ball carrier either. As long as Bruno has a more mobile players around him, like Garnacho/Amad/Rashford, with Højlund up front, I think he should be okay. With Højlund & Zirkzee as ST options, possibly Rashford as well, I can't see us singing a ST soon. Especially when we have so many other positions to strengthen - CB, WB, CM. I think Zirkzee would need to be moved on, and I'm not sure that'll happen this summer. I guess it depends on his performances and game time until the end of the season.

[@George-x3v]

We saw how much defending Sporting did against City - imagine having Garnacho/Antony playing as a wing-back - I'm not sure that would work. Also, Amorim didn't always have Gyökeres, so maybe he can make it work with Zirkzee instead - the tactics would just need tweaking depending on the personnel of the front 3.

CM: Palacios is a cornerstone for Leverkusen, happy there and long term contract. Would be great, but would cost a fortune and unlikely to happen. Angelo Stiller would be a nice option, but also unlikely as he wants Bayern. Joey Veerman could be a perfect signing. Excellent regista, perfect partner to Ugarte, wants to move, PSV needs to sell, only one year left. Alternatively Kristjan Asllani could be a good option. Very talented young regista, that hardly gets played at inter. LWB: if Alphonso Davies wants to come it would be a no-brainer. One of the best young attacking LB in the world and for a bargain with his contract running out in the summer and he wants to move. CB: Agree we need another CB, but a leftie imo. As it stands we only have one left footed and 4 right footed CBs... Olivier Boscagli is the perfect fit imo, contract out in the summer. He'd probably love to come. Jhon Lucumi would be even better, but more expensive too, though still doable/realistic. Striker: Let's keep our money in the pocket for now. Gyokeres would cost a fortune and we need the money elsewhere. Hojlund profiles perfectly for Amorim and Chido Obi Martin is one of the most talented youngsters in the world. And what is a striker without service? CAM/(L)W: Nacho, Rashford and Bruno don't cut it. It's a graveyard shift for our strikers.... Since we haven't used a lot of money with the others, I'd go all out on Florian Wirtz. Will probably cost (north of) 100m and unlikely he chooses mufc, but he could be our De Bruyne for 10 years to come. Alternatively Malik Tillman and Mastantuono would be amazing. I'd like to see Amad on the right sided AM too. Mount played like five minutes since we signed him....

What I would do if I was Amorim, I would get rid of a lot of older players, bigger wages off & look more of the 23-26 who should be by now a well talented player. (Sell) ➡️ (Buy) Rashford, Sancho, Antony ➡️ Goncalves & Baena Fernandes, Casemiro, Eriksen ➡️ Ederson Shaw, Malacia ➡️ Nouri Maguire, Lindelof, Evans ➡️ Any 3 young centre backs tbh

[@Inveist]

What do you use for that football pitch with the players? It looks so nice

[@atifreds]

We need Inacio

[@yoagcur]

Expected a bit better analysis. This is fantasy level.They may be who they want but what would they cost and are the players they are replacing going to provide a fraction of that outlay. Maguire Casemiro Eriksen etc. were players they could not shift last summer. Add the costs of turfing out ten Hag and getting the new guy in and United just cannot afford it

[@matthieujongkind9775]

Yoro is so much more suited for the right sided centre back as his best attribute is covering the channels like he did at Lille

[@sthfw]

5 to buy eze/simons playmakers could you get both if sold bruno 🤷‍♂️ ait nouri good option as a lwb schlotterbeck and simakan centre backs you could sign who could even improve the starting 11 oshimen worth the risk 5 to sell shaw rashford lindelof maguire antony potentially bruno

[@JoeDiego]

There’s only 29 Prem matches left this season. Bruno has to play 24 more than Shaw to overtake him, so you are predicting that Shaw will make less than 6 PL appearances. Also, using the guy with the best injury record in Man Utd history as the counterpoint to Shaw doesn’t seem fair!

[@Culturelens]

You are forgetting that Fernandez is from sporting right?

[@kevinhockey2814]

Love that Zalewski shout, would be perfect for this system

[@1F.C.P]

I’m so excited

[@youwilllose-wq4fo]

Kone from the academy is a very good midfielder Harry amass is prospect for lwb May be buy 1 creative high iq Amf One good backup centre back Chido Obi- Martin is one hell of a prospect at ST position for next 1-2 years he will be ready

[@richard99cookify]

I was convinced it was going to be Mitoma before you said Eze!

[@iChocoEG]

We should go and sign Wirtz, he is a Balon dor material and will shine under Amorim Also in defense we must sign Yann Bisseck from Inter, he has everything to play in Man united

[@browneyes0332]

Center backs : Oliver boscagli and jarred brainthwaithe Left wingback:rayon ait nouri Cm:stiller and Manu kone Am:Eze ,Rayan Cherki ,Ibrahim diaz ,kvaradona Rwb:hakimi and adama traore

[@abdellism]

kvaradona, probably the best european player atm.

[@BonitaUzABum]

@@abdellismhe ain’t gonna be going to these clowns especially as you’d have to part with atleast 100million

[@abdellism]

@@BonitaUzABum you´re right. I just think the guy deserved a bit more recognition.

[@diioonysus]

I don't know why the fuck we sold Alvaro Fernandez, he had me buzzing ever since I saw him in the academy. We do have a gem of a player in that position still, harry amaas will eventually step up.

[@scottyh1238]

Man United about to drop another 600m on the manager's wish list just to fire him in 2 years 😂 Your suggestions would be pretty good actually, would at least put them up in to top 6-8 contention.

[@trivandrumlulu-to6pn]

Play antony on right back would be perfect

[@LegendRed7]

Needs to clear out more than 5 needs to clear out Onana, Shaw, Dalot, Lindleof, Maguire, Bruno, Malacia, Mount, Rashford, Casemiro, Erriksen atleast...

[@amo5499]

We had a LB but we sold him with a buy back clause in Alvaro Fernandez, i think that is a better option to go for. i wonder why he was sold when we do not options on that side.

[@henriquecosta3775]

I get its opinions, but some of them are questionable. Zalewski, Palacios are both great, i feel you really hit the mark there. Singo would also work very well, you had a player of his profile, Matheus reis, at Sporting, despite being worse. However, i disagree with you on maguire. Maguire has showed he can work in a back 3, and Amorim can use slower and older player in the central spot as he did with coates for like 4 years. Eze is questionable but i dont think its a terrible shout. But Marmoush for Zirkzee would make no sense. Sporting until this year allways had a target man and a more false 9 striker. Last season even started with Sporting playing both Paulinho and Gyo, so Zirkzee should have a profile that Amorim enjoys

[@peterbonnier9136]

Garnacho is one of our best players, you cant leave him out

[@AlexCarter-kn5qw]

What about Dalot and Garnacho?

[@kempyj98]

Zalewski is unreal. One of about 3 players standing out for poland when i watch their games

[@jeez3k]

Alphonso Davies Branthwait Wharton Mbuemo/Dibbling

[@MattWrafter]

I really don’t get why everyone is assuming that Amorim will want to play the exact same system at United than he did at Sporting. And to the point of dropping all United’s best players because they don’t “fit” this new rigid system? I think you’re off the mark here. We’ll see I suppose!

[@aekirby1045]

the fact your rating mount higher than fernandes is insane.

[@DigitalJuggernaut]

I agree with everyone except for Eze. I think we should get Gyokeres over Marmoush. If Rashford leaves, we can get Gyokeres and Marmoush

[@MrRobin1997]

eze is older than people think, i don't really see the point in replacing bruno with him when bruno is still better than eze now and he'd be probably be unreasonably expensive being english etc

[@maxm3936]

There is no way amorim replaces Bruno, he’s the captain, the fans love him and he’s been their best player ever since he signed

[@georgefalconer9470]

I like Eze and love Palacios but they're too injury prone for me, and they'll be coming into an even more physically demanding system with both of them involved in Amorim's pentagon press which is ridiculously demanding. If we already had good profiles then I wouldn't mind taking a bit of a risk on icing on the cake signings. Like City could afford to take an injury prone Doku because they didn't need him to work right away.

[@alfiemartin7381]

How would you line this team up on football manager

[@neilpatel5917]

Tbh I think this teams kinda has right profiles to fit his system I don’t know how will he fit our wingers in ATP I think we need a CB lukeba silva Guehi brainthwaite are best shouts but would be expensive as hell For lB I think alvaro is no brainer next summer we can’t trust shaw fitness but let’s see for malacia For CM Tbh I don’t think eze is good for his price 60 mil who will turn 28 next year doesn’t make sense Xavi Simons? PSG will sell him he will cost us 70-80 but he is worth the price Baleba will cost a fortune knowing Brighton and it doesn’t make sense when we have Case and Ugarte and Mainoo who has magical feet and can develop ball carrying skills [ he did carry ball a lot in Eng vs Belgium game + we have seen him do for united also]

[@mitchellbrough1615]

Wouldnt be focusing on st, could do with more cb's or cm's. Let hojlund be 1st choice for a bit longer and see how zirkzee adapts. Also can't ignore the likes of fernandez or kambwala back on the cheap

[@AbsoluteFrenkie]

James casemiro and eriksen are leaving after this season. So we could expect 2 midfield players signed

[@ezyfnef]

If Mount was Brazilian he'd be a shepherd. He has barely played for the club but some how you've seen enough to say he's part of our best 11?

[@Liversh0t]

I don't see Amorim using United's players like he did with the sporting players, I think at best we use youth to mold some of the roles he likes to have

[@djacks247]

That’s a lot of changes. The current players don’t fit and man utd haven’t done a great job at finding willing buyers . Fans and media will uproar about selling rashford, Fernandes, etc. The coach and players will both be frustrated because you’re fitting round pegs in square holes. As a Chelsea fan who’s had first hand experience in these sorts of things, there’s nothing but turmoil in your future 😅

[@simdevils]

Wouldn’t surprise me absolutely none of these will happen (apart from Shaw and Maguire getting booted eventually)

[@jackhughes6460]

So United need to spend another 250/300 million

[@CoconutJewce]

Was always gonna need that anyway. Still too old in certain positions and the squad depth drops off a cliff.

[@john-tr8jy]

I see a lot of comments here that just do not take in to account the attitudinal risks of some of these transfers. United don't need emotional divas. This is a team that needs warriors with high IQ. Those who can do it away and home.
