Yeah I just posted about that, the account I saw that tweeted it had about 30 followers though.

Said Spurs want £60m from an English club or 50m Euros from a foreign side

Do they lose him for free next summer?

I think they're just pulling names out of a hat now that they cant use fernandes and dybala

He doesnt fit the profile of player Ole wants

If they can't get him to sign a deal I think they'll sell, if we are genuinely interested I'd imagine Levy would make us wait until January.

Independent, express, Metro reporting it so far. A few other papers have mentioned it since the dybala deal was off too.

Agree with the first bit.

Disagree that he doesn't fit the type of player Ole wants. He plays for a high press/ counter attacking team and excels.

I’m not the biggest cheerleader for the Fernandes move, but why go in for Eriksen instead of Fernandes?

Doesn’t make sense.

Proven in the PL I guess, can also play from the right, something we have done with Mata and Lingard for some time.

"United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has targeted young, hungry players" - from the bbc article last night about you ending dybala talks

Plus considering that stone has said you've never been in for fernandes, it sound like an attacking 8/10 isnt something you're looking at, unless you've been linked to someone else in that mold that I've missed

This is my concern.

Maybe Ile has said we need a central creative player and ed is just pulling mes out his backside.

Better player?

posted on 5/8/19

With all these rumours of an out-and-out AM coming in, I’m starting to wonder if Ole is really serious about switching to the diamond as default.

——————Matic

McT/Pereira———Pogba

———Fernandes/Eriksen

Or whoever it might be behind a front two.

posted on 5/8/19

Much of the talk yesterday after the Dybala news was that we are still after a number 10. If that's the case then it would unfortunately seem that we'll be playing Pogba deeper next to McT/Matic rather than going for a new CM. The way we've been setting up in pre season would also suggest this.

If we are going for a 10 though we could do a lot worse than Eriksen. PL proven, not afraid to put the work in. I also didnt realise he was only 27.

I think he might go 4231 with McT and a Pogba in the 2, and wants a proper number 10 for the central of the 3 still.

I think he wants the option, he also has wingers at his disposal but some of our better performances were using that formation.

Worked for France.

Pogba’s clearly going to be played in cm. It’s less of an issue if we have two dynamic players in the midfield with him.
