Me too

[@kimsharkie8952]

Yeah, i kinda agree, no way we sell two CBs ,esp lindelof for an expensive davies and sell AWB for debast who isn't an actual RB.. its a bit of wishful thinking than sensible transfer talk

yeah its a fantasy , why would he leave Bayern?

[@ethanderrick8486]

That's the most ridiculous call I've ever heard from Dave... Potentially selling and upgrading AWB and bringing in Kim is all that needs to be done this summer for the defence. Too much needs to be done in keeper, midfield and striker

[@jr-rp5qf]

Didn’t Ten Hag say something like Lindelof is untouchable? I really doubt we’d move him. Seems like the perfect backup CB we need. Depth and good attitude

[@mucool328]

I don't think it is up to Ten Hag if Lindelof wants to Leave and play as starter in another top European team. You would be surprised to know that many top Italy teams are interested in him.

[@lordd794]

If we sign Kim min Jae, Varane becomes backup at right centre back, and I think Shaw becomes backup to Martinez. Maguire & Lindelof become surplus, and get sold.

It might sound good but it is not what we need and it wouldn't work as well as playing FM. Being a squad player at Manchester Unted is not the best development path for many of these youngsters. Most people can't cope with the attention and pressure of playing for united, Zaha and Deepay are decent players but struggled at united. We had to wait for 2.5 seasons for Amad to show his promise.

[@higurk]

@@sabiotiopablo5787 he's a good defensive right back but he's not a good overall right back taking into account other parts of the game. He's average at best overall. We have grown to have low standards now at united due to the lack of success. The bar has been set low now. His overall play is still lacking. His an inconsistent passer, can't shoot, doesn't overlap and can't cross well. So he lacks alot of things a TOP right back should have. This is MODERN day football it's not the 90s anymore where you could just get away with defending and that's it. You have to contribute going foward too. Both dalot and awb lack it going foward they are very poor and definitely below average compared to other top right backs. Awb does well Vs fast wingers but how often do we play against the likes of mpabbe? In other games for eg at home we generally will play teams lower in the table therefore we will generally be on the attack and that's where awb is lacking. We don't need to keep a defensive right back just for mpabbe or Vini jnr. We should be buying a right back who can defend to a decent level and contribute much more in attack. It would bring a different dimension to the team.

[@Hyde_Hill]

Love the shouts for Gift Orban and Milenkovic Savic and the general theme of youngsters. Do think you want a proven no9 and you have some of the prices wrong. As well as just a general too high a squad churn. For me: Sell/Release: De Gea, Henderson, Butland, Bishop, Maguire, Tuanzebe, Jones, Mengi, Williams, McTominay, Sabitzer, Van de Beek, Elanga, Martial, Weghorst, Bailly, Telles, Bernard. Loan out: Pellestri, Iqbal, Hannbibal, Shoretire, A Fernandez, Laird depending on AWB. Question mark: Aaron Wan Bissaka. Maybe needed for FFP if get a good bid and Laird has developed well. Squad players: Heaton, Kovar, Laird/Wan Bissaka, Lindelof, Malacia, Fred, Mainoo, Diallo, Eriksen, Garnacho. New no6 (Andre/Lavia/other talents around 20 mil), new second striker (Gift Orban indeed), new cb (unless better then Varane like Min Jae then becomes core and indeed would prefer him). Core: Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Shaw, Casimero, Bruno, Anthony, Rashford, Sancho. New GK (Costa), New striker (Kane), new no8 (Milenkovic Savic). Any youngsters I missed here if contract running out sell if deemed not good enough, otherwise extend and loan out or u21 depending what staff think better for their development. Also get a set piece coach as they under performed there this season.

[@mofodm]

Great video, shows the kind of young talents that United haven't been going for over the last 10 years or so. I'm sure other clubs will be after them too but I hope we can sign a couple of these. There is always the United tax though that usually doubles the cost of anyone we're interested in!

[@chrissilvester5663]

My realistic squad would be this. Sign : Costa - 60m, Hojlund - 40m, Kim Min Jae - 45m, Mount - 50m, Varela -15m, Thuram - Free, Rabiot - Free = 210m Sell : Henderson - 30m, Maguire - 40m, McTominay - 30m, Martial - 20m, Fred - 20m, Elanga - 15m, Williams - 15m, Telles - 10m, Bailly - 10m = 190m Squad next season Goalkeepers - Costa, De Gea, Heaton Defenders - Martinez, Kim Min Jae, Varane, Lindelof, Shaw, Malacia, Dalot, Wan Bissaka, Mengi, Fernandez, Laird Midfielders - Casemiro, Bruno, Mount, Eriksen, Donny, Mainoo, Rabiot, Varela, Wingers - Sancho, Amad, Garnacho, Antony, Rashford Strikers - Hojlund, Thuram, McNeil, Greenwood

Central Striker 3. ?

Glad you emphasised "DREAM" in the title, maybe make belief would be better suited 😂. To be fair, I would say your outgoing numbers are accurate, but the incoming suggested fees are wishful thinking on many. But you have some room on them now that Kim Min-Jae is off to Bayern, so that saves you 50mill.

[@ishownudes]

Fullbacks should be untouched. Just because AWB is not what Ten Hag needs, doesn't mean he has to be sold and can't be used as a rotational option against skillful left wingers. Shaw is best at left back even tho he's not that fast, his 1v1 defensive output however is really good and he's a very smart defender too so he won't get moved about. Malacia is still very young and has been a reliable rotation and substitute option. Dalot should've been the one to be sold but they've renewed him.

[@il_buono]

What about homegrown players quote? Each Premier League club has to register at least 8 homegrown players. Your squad have Shaw, Rashford, Sancho, I assume third GK and then we need 4 homegrowns from academy including Garnacho. Overall thanks for your video. I like bringing in young players strategy, but it seems impossible knowing how much United can rebuild the squad.

Romeo Lavia and Gabri Veiga for midfield. Hojlund as a striker for me for sure, I think he is fantastic, and I would risk with Gift Orban as a rotation/backup option. But I haven't take finances into account, just aimed for the young, talented players that I think would be a great additions to United. Also, I am open to giving a chance to Greenweood, depending on the talks with his girlfriend and internal investigation.

[@rishidharkasam7308]

I agree with your view Dave but I guess these transfers will obviously be spread over a multiple transfer windows. At the moment, I think we need to think about the now instead of the future. In my opinion, we need to get a fullback who can play on the both the flanks. Frimpong would be my choice, get him for around 30m pounds. Kim in and the goat Maguire out. I agree with Andre, that would be an amazing business. I would make sabitzer deal permanent, could play as second fiddle to Bruno or drop bruno to eriksen's role. Would sell one of the McFred, I would prefer to have Fred. And finally signing two strikers is a must. Kane and hojlund, I don't care if we break the bank. For me, this would be my first transfer window. If we could get this done and hopefully we perform well, stay in all the comps and in the top 3 of PL, then the other young players could be easily tempted with our project as well as ETH, who is amazing at developing the youngsters.

[@patogames5099]

Of the 22 players you've listed, how many qualify as home grown? Looks like only Rashford, Garnacho, and Sancho would - correct me if I'm wrong. As you need 8 for the EPL, in a squad of 25, you'll need to hold on to/sign more home grown players; e.g. keep McTom, AWB, Maguire. Or, sign someone like Harry Kane (for the "world class" forward) I think Gift is better off following the same path that Jonathon David took from Gent, rather than going to sit on Utds bench (neither Rasmund or Gift would really want to be the bench guy, considering how much football they are currently getting). Would De Gea be staying if Raya was brought in too?

I'd love to see Greenwood back in the side in that no 9 position. I'm pretty sure fans would except him back too, but he would have to be prepared for stick from away fans!

My perfect *unrealistic summer transfer window*

[@priestisaiahwhitemutabazi1238]

i agree with you Stat

[@corny17]

I don't understand why we would sell players like AWB or Lindelof. AWB is so much better than Dalot, especially when the opponents have a dangerous LW. Dalot's defending 1 on 1 is not all that great. I understand Dalot has a new contract, but I think Dalot should be our back up RB at best. Supposed to be significantly better than someone like AWB in attack.. but barely ever shows it. Lindelof is a more than capable squad player. Being played with Maguire often made him look worse than he is. Now when he has been brought it for awrhile to replace Varane, I think he has performed pretty well. I think we would be set for CBs with Kim, Varane, Licha and Lindelof. We have more important positions to sort out.. Striker and Goalie in particular. If we manage to sign Kim for 45m or so.. thats more than enough for CBs. With United's recent history in the transfer market.. I think we would be lucky just to get the Striker and Goalie we need to really improve our squad. I think Pellestri should be given more of a chance as well. Along with Amad. Maybe in the Carabao cup at least.

[@AValidPointUHave]

I think EtH rates both AWB and Pellestri. I don’t think either of those lads are going this window. But I do really like the idea of bringing in youth. In addition to a few experienced guys. I think the only thing you’re forgetting in this video is the Manchester United tax. United have since SAF left been held over the fire on transfer fees because other clubs know they can get it out of us. So I’d add at least 5-10m for each of those signings unless it’s a clause buyout.

[@jamesbarry9477]

Problem is selling the players on huge contracts, Maguire, Wan Bissaka, Fred, all on 100-200k per week. 20 max I think for McTominay and Awb

[@tolkienfan10]

I can't see De Gea staying on as a deputy though. Ideally, we get someone like Raya and then, Diogo Costa for next season and have them battle it out for 1st place.

[@tolkienfan10]

I like the look of this squad but there is no way we're gonna get Davies, not unless we can demonstrate that a move to United would be a step up. A move to City would be a step up but at present, the same cannot be said for United. Also, the hope is that we can leverage more money via player sales. £5-10m per player is pretty pessimistic, considering that any kid out there is commanding fees of £20m at the moment. We need to be more ruthless in that respect.

[@JayVentura]

When he said Alphonso Davies 😂

[@detta4689]

Bro sold Facu Pellestri. The disrespect

[@justafan2135]

Player sales prices are still high , that right side of Sancho and Dalot is a nightmare ,on the left it's fast,aggressive with end product. Come on statman you better than that.

[@zdbrownie]

AWB never gets the respect he deserves

[@chukwuemekaorji9331]

This is just amazing I really wish Erik Ten Hag can sign like this, I agree with all the signings really very very good I think we better take Lee Fee over Mount and Arda Guler is really really good I buy him too.

[@fadlhammoud7258]

I don’t know how people rate kmj ahead of varane. I mean it is clear varane is levels above kmj. The only issue is that he is prone to injuries

[@stephenorr2516]

I agree with most of the outs, id keep Pellistri or loan him. The ins, however, are a bit strange. Save the 70m for Davies and 20m for Orban and put it towards Kane. We need a more experienced midfielder and it looks like being Mount. Id rather give Amad a go if we're looking at a young 10/winger. Enjoyed the video though 👍

[@iwantgoals1566]

Let’s make this easy for the plebs that run United. Sign 4 players to reinforce the spine of the team and we’re good till January. 👍🏾

[@kekepeters7732]

I am fully in on the idea of younger players. I would however not go for Davies. I would like to see Frimpong come in to create a situation where Shaw is one of the 3 defenders to stay put and Frimpong goes up the field and combine with Antony. Just like Ajax did with Mazraoui. So instead of Davies bring in Disasi. Instead of Debast bring in Frimpong. Then I want Arthur Vermeeren to join the pool of young midfielders. Also selling Sancho, keeping Amad, and getting Mount, who can play CAM or as a winger is a good option for me. I fully agree with your striker choices, it is precisely what I was saying the past weeks. If financially possible I would like to see not Raya but Diogo Costa come in as our number one goalkeeper with Bart Verbruggen or Dominik Livaković as a second goalkeeper and move on from David.
