We have a number of positions that need strengthening, so we can't make last summer's mistake of spend a huge chunk of our budget on one player.

I thought McT and Fred offered more yesterday tbh.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That’s probably more to do with Fred and McTominay being better players than many give them credit for than it is about Rices ability.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
To play devils advocatefor a second. If fred and McT were just as good if not better than Rice, how is he an upgrade on either?
Many have this delussion about certain players like Rice and I am not surprised when the watch Skysports and read articles like what th OP posted

But the obsession with him by some United fans is becomong Sanchoesque.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What's obsessive about doing a "Rice Watch" article in a game that didn't feature utd, was played when the transfer window was closed and went on to highlight every touch he made, even his bad ones

how much is the lad at Leeds worth compared to Rice?

Really?
Hes been better for England than Rice has.
Phillips doesn't impress me at all. Don't think he's any better than Mctominay.

In your opinion, but most people are more excited about Rice than Phillips for a reason.
Rice is a mix of Keane and Carrick in one player which is rare. Again, I won’t get too excited as I think he’s nailed on to go to Chelsea but if there was any chance of us getting him we should take it.

he is England player of the year....
Ok
Defensively I think he'd offer us a lot.
I'm not 100% sure yet his passing is creative enough. If we were to continue the 4231/433 his best partner behind Bruno would probably be Pogba...

Cool, Giggs was once player of the season in England and he wasn’t what most would call the right choice. These awards don’t really mean much. By all means want Phillips as opinions are yours to have. But most would rightly consider Rice the better player.

yep, and having partnered pogba with fellaini and a man with 87 year old legs for much of his time here, it will be classic united to buy rice just as pogba leaves, so that we can pair him with the passing maestro that is fred.

Robb hence why we shouldn’t bother. Not sustainable this level of spending. Rice isn’t world class. 100m is what I’d expect United to pay for someone like verrati who’s million times better
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Veratti is injury prone AF which is why his valuation isn’t higher than Rice’s

They are both excellent players. Who is better in relation to what they will each cost in transfer and wages, and then settling in time etc. is what clubs like man united will be weighing up.
Really like Rice, yesterday wasn’t his best game though.

Rice is just hyped until he’s smashing it for a team competing for trophies, he shouldn’t go for anything more than 50m
