Matteo Darmian gone

Seems barely newsworthy this, but his transfer to Parma has been completed for what looks like a nominal fee.

Never really did anything wrong for us, and always seemed like a decent professional.

Good luck to him with what effectively needs to be the rebuild of his career. Hopefully he gets a decent run of games and can force his way back into the Italy side

We are left with Spider and Dalot at RB with Young, Tuanzebe and Lindelof as emergency cover, and Shaw and Young at LB with Rojo as emergency cover.

Dalot has played a bit of LB too?

I always liked Darmian as a professional. Think it's a shame he didn't play more and I'm sure he'd have been good for us in a back three. I wish him well. Started the 2017 Europa League Final too so will be a part of our history. Talking of that final though see how much the team has changed since then.

Romero*
Valencia
Blind
Smalling
Darmian

Fellaini
Pogba*
Herrera

Mata*
Rashford*
Mkhi

Only four remain and only two you'd consider as starters. No wonder we're inconsistent with those numbers!

Out of all the 'deadwood' him and Blind were the two I would have liked to be retained.

Not a PL unfortunately. Good luck to him.

Did we get a fee?

Blind was good for us. Should have kept him.

How much did we pay for him again?

Darmian's big problem was being an excellent defender in an era when people (fans, coaches, w@nkers) expect a full back to attack like Gary Lineker and don't care that they also defend like Gary Lineker.

He was just too good at his job, he had no place in this current squad.
