Morning reds, hope you and your loved ones are well. Like many of you, I'm interested in who the club signs and would like to see the new manager's methods and philosophy on display. I personally have no league or cup targets this season but would like to see an entertaing playing style implemented with much better defending.
On the subject of transfers, whilst the squad needs strengthening, I do think a lot of people are overlooking certain talented players in the squad. A lot were abysmal last season but I think there's a lot to come from players especially our attacking options. Specifically Rashford, Sancho and even Martial.
One of the reasons why I'm a fan of the manager is that he also improves players and develops younger ones. So transfers aside, I think there's more to come from a lot of our players.
So, what do you guys think? Is there untapped potential in this team that can be developed?
Are there youngsters that could surprise us?
Will we see a return to form of players like Rashford, Sancho and Martial? Or am I being too optimistic?
Your views will be greatly appreciated
More to Come....

The longer we go on pretending that Rashford and Martial are top players the longer we'll be waiting for consistent success. They are both good PL players who are a dime a dozen in the league.

Wonder how many dimes it would take to actually buy Rashford.

Based on the reported fees for Richarlison, Sterling, Jesus, Antony, Rashford would probably go for £50m

All of whom have teams interested in them, doesn't appear to be the case for Rashford.
Bigger wages as well, be doing well to get 30m imo

Not many if he does not get some form back.

It is only 18 months since Rashford was named as the most valuable/expensive footballer on the planet. Crazy to think how much his stock has fallen, but I think that there are genuine concerns over how much his injuries have impacted on him as a player.

I think that Arsenal were reported to be interested in Rashford.

Rashford has been reported on as a target for Barcelona and PSG over the last couple of years. Naturally, we can't assume media gossip is true. However, both clubs have brought in players who have been more sneered at than Rashford in England (Choupo-Moting, Depay spring to mind). And the fact that domestic media in France / Spain regarded Rashford as a credible target also gives some perspective as to how he is perceived abroad.
Maybe Rashford will never get back to the output we saw from him 2-3 years ago. But the short memories and cynicism of many of our fans never fails to disappoint.

Yeh, it is quite annoying. Some of our fans slate the lad, whilst overlooking the fact that he kept on making himself available at a a time when Pogba was choosing when he had operations, Martial was consistently injured, Cavani was always fit for his country but often unavailable for club etc. To his own detriment, the lad kept on going for the club, despite the fact he obviously wasn't fully fit and had been brought back from his injuries too soon.

The sooner he moves to Everton and turns up 1 in 5 the better for everyone.

I cant see Rashford being on more money than all of those.
If we were to sell, wed get between £35- £40m i reckon.
