Maybe our business is done

I know this probably isnt what people want to hear, but with Jose saying back in Feb he wouldn't be signing an attacker this summer and us already acquiring Fred and Dalot, maybe our business is done.

Jose said...

"But honestly, I enjoyed a lot, and who knows we can have a Brazilian in the squad next year.

“I don't believe it will be Willian, because Chelsea won't make it possible."


It’s no secret Jose would love Willian at United. He’s probably off to Barca though

We have since signed a Brazilian. Maybe He was specifically asked about Willian.

We. Do. Not. Play. With. A. Right. Winger.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here, people. How many times do I have to say it.

Jose hasn't played with a RW for a 100 game tenure with United. Why do they think he's going to start doing so now?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Because he’s said he would like to bring in Willian.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

...and because for 100 games we haven't offered any threat down the right and as a result we are easy to defend against. Unless we are going to buy Trippier, we need to focus on RW as a priority. The side is unbalanced.

According to 1 chap on here Valencia and Young spend 80% of matches in the oppositipn half attacking.

They probably do, but they are highly ineffective.

Is your first XI right?

That's what it looks like.

Ross is right in that we don't play with wingers, right or left. Our full backs are the ones who need to. Provide width. If they do that, there would be no need for a RW. We're unbalanced there as Valencia doesn't take up space a WB would when they get forward nor provide crosses.

If we aren't going to sort out the FBs then we need a RW and not a RWF.

Of course Valencia takes up winger / wing back positions.

My point is that that would require a change in approach, not just personnel.

I don't believe we'd see Willian play as an out and out right winger or right sided forward if he came in.

Evidence would suggest he'd play as an inside right, close to a number ten or right sided number eight like Mata, Lingard and everyone else we play in the nominal right sided role.
