The job requires someone who a) has a good experience of the international football scouting network and the connections to go with it, and b) will be wiling to sit down and enjoy the daily grind of the job.

Nothing in Beck’s history tells me he can do the job. We need someone with a proven CV and track record, so all these Rio, Fletcher, Becks and other old boy network guys should take several seats or better yet GTFOH.

LooL. I get what you’re saying. But it seems the club is thinking about putting the affairs of the club in the hands of former players. There’s nothing wrong in this- IF those former players are capable. Ajax, Dortmund and Bayern are run by an old-boys network and they look well-run.

Becks7 has played across the continent and won’t find it hard having contacts of important personalities needed to land transfer targets. If Becks were doF Rabiot to United would be close, if not already a done deal- if Utd truly wants him.

If Beckham rings Wan-Bissaka and tells him his services are needed at United whilst painting a picture of what it is like to play for United, there’s a good chance AWB will be putting in a transfer request. All Ed can offer is material incentives, he doesn’t know what it is like to play for United and can hardly make the club appealing in that manner.

I admit putting old boys in charge isn’t always a solution though and I agree there’ll be other qualities required of a doF that Becks and other old boys lack.

The only way we get out of this mess is if we get rid of Ed

Better still, appoint a DoF.

If we manage to exchange Lukaku for Inter’s Milan Skirina plus cash or Jones, I’d say “good job” Ed.

Manchester United are stepping up their interest in Norwich defender Max Aarons, who they see as an alternative to Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Sky Sports News understands.

United's interest in the England U19 international comes amid a shift in transfer policy at Old Trafford towards targeting young, homegrown players.

However, Sky in Italy report they have also been in contact with Napoli regarding a move for right-back Elseid Hysaj as an alternative to Wan-Bissaka.

The 25-year-old Albania international has already revealed his intention to leave the Serie A club this summer, saying he is ready to "play for another team and maybe try to win something".

From Munier to AWB to Aarons to Hysaj now.. Next week we'll get another name in that list..

Sky Italy is reporting that we are after Napoli's Elseid Hysaj, he can at play right back and left back. I hope we are not trying to get another Matteo Darmian from Italian league because that dude is a suspect defensively,height disadvantage from set play and he cannot cross. He his just average going forward, is this what we want?

We let in too many goals last season because our full backs were to narrow and allowed wingers on the outside to get crosses into our box. In my opinion, we need a defensively solid full back that can actual tackle and stop opponent from bombarding crosses into our box. Full back that has speed with good recovery rate to stop a counter attack in case we loose the ball in the opponent half.

As good as Liverpool going forward, they knew they needed a good goal keeper and proper defender to succeed. In as much as i want us to sign offensive players, I think we still need to work on our defensive structure. Attack Attack is the best form of defense didn't work for Liverpool 2 seasons ago until they went out and buy proper defender to compliment the attacking ghen ghen football.

Paul Pogba would prefer to rejoin Juventus over a move to Real Madrid should he depart Manchester United this summer, according to Sky in Italy.

The Italian champions are keen to bring Pogba back to Turin and are believed to be trying to find a way to match the Frenchman's wage demands before approaching United.

The 26-year-old wants to leave Old Trafford and said on Sunday "it could be a good time to have a new challenge somewhere else."

Pogba is unlikely to sign an extension to his United contract, which has two years left to run, although the club have the option to activate an automatic 12-month extension and Sky Sports News understands United expect him to stay at Old Trafford.

So what will the hashtag be this time #POGBACK 2.0. Why the back and forth between Manchester united and Juventus for Paul Pogba? how is going back to Juventus again a new challenge? I wish we can sell this guy to PSG or Chinese Maga club.

These Assanal fans are something else. Coming to aim cheap jabs when this season could even turn out worse for them.

Feck outta here with your 45M-transfer-budget-having-arse.

Savings merchants

Arsenal fans are still talking, when a French Ligue 2 championship player (Alexis Claude-Maurice) is rejecting their club(Arsenal) for Monchengladbach.

Aarons had already been mentioned as an alternative to AWB for quite some time, especially since Palace have been quoting 60m for AWB. Palace themselves already lined up Aarons as AWB's replacement.

Never saw Meunier's news on SS, only on this forum lol.

Hysaj plays both right and left, so if AWB's club won't sell for 50m... Hopefully, Napoli won't be out to scam United.

Striker for defender?

No doubt, Skriniar is very good, but if Lukaku leaves, then a replacement is desperately needed. With Lingard's influence on Rashford, i don't trust Rashford to reach his potential.

Skriniar is a CB, a position we need to fill. Going by OGS’s previous games, Lukaku won’t be playing many games so we won’t be needing him as much as we will need a CB.

Another player coming from the Championship after Daniel James? Bros, Manchester united can do better na. I am sure Aaron Wan-Bissaka is already a done deal, we should be looking at other positions especially Right wing, and a proper goal scorer if Lukaku leaves.

I am shocked that we have not be linked to a proper right winger like Pepe, I hope we are not going to be banking on Lingard, Mata or Daniel for that right wing position.

This is why i mentioned Lingard's influence on Rashford, the boy can't be trusted and OGS will most likely have to use Lukaku if Rashford's cluelessness starts again.

Apart from Lukaku, the next striker is Martial, and Martial's already playing on the left as a winger. If Sanchez was performing well, Martial might have been moved to a full-time striker.

I can't imagine benching Lukaku for Rashford...

That rashford seems useless nowadays(highly selfish)... I believe with proper delivery of ball into the box(not by our deadwoods) lukaku will thrive (be deadly) and score goals... We can't rely on rashford he still needs to seat on the bench and learn.... Less than 2weeks to start pre season and we've not signed any midfielder..... How do they get accustomed and play Utd (DNA) way

If Lukaku leaves, I suggest Martial gets the No. 9 Jersey back - perhaps it's gonna reset him to default and gets reborn to Martial we all loved.

I don't know what can reset that lazy dude to his default mode... ..That boy looks like a sadist, he should just improve on tracking back and fight for the ball or else let him seat on the bench and watch greenwood become a real star
