Since I can't find a Bournemouth page, permit me to ask here. What is the latest on Ryan Fraser? Not saying Utd should sign him up, but I won't frown either if we got him. We need to strengthen our bench.
Would be interesting to see where the 'stars' and 'potentials' of the relegated teams end up.
{Ed002's Note - Ryan Fraser (LW/RW) there is interest from Crystal Palace, Fulham and Spurs. An enquiry from Arsenal led to them being told that the player has wage demands far higher than they were anticipating. Spurs have some financial woes and will have to sell to buy this summer so Fraser being a Free Agent will be attractive to them. I am not aware of any declared interest from Everton and I would doubt another LW is being looked for - although Fraser can play on the right as well. Leeds have asked about what wages he would want. Crystal Palace appear best placed.}

would Fraser be a replacement for zaha ed.
{Ed002's Note - Effectively.}

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Fraser had admitted to not really trying this season. That, coupled with him not extending his contract to see out Bournemouth's relegation fight makes me question is he has the right attitude (let alone ability) for a top club.

CS - I can't say that I blame him for not extending. If he were to have picked up a serious injury over the course of those remaining 8 games it would have made finding a new club incredibly difficult.
