The way this window is going we would soon have dumb headlines such as "why players like rashford, DvB, or even worst Fred are like New signings under ETH"
???.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ay don't slag fred off. If we had 4 or 5 players with freds work ethic and attitude we would be a good team.

And tbf to fred he was one of our better players last season.

You always need players like fred, but i think ten hag can improve him, pep and city saw somthing in him.

We just have had a poor few years in terms of performaces as a team and msybe some players look worse than they are.

26 Jun 2022 13:09:36
Pep and man City never put a bid in for Fred let's be clear about that.

26 Jun 2022 14:35:02
Fred getting plaudits just shows how bad our midfield has decayed over the years. His hard work and industrious displays stand out because we had a manager who demanded nothing from the team. Fred is a poor footballer. He's technically miles behind were an elite midfielder should be. Being able to win the ball back but then instantly misplacing a pass is redundant.

We have been consistently second best in midfield over the last few years. Players like Fred and McTominay and others are the cause of this.

Hard work should be the minimum effort players put into a game. That why Ten Hags reign excites me. Fred may play a few games next year, he may even improve but if we have aspirations to win major honours, players like him need to go.

Standards are in the mud.
Fred can't control the ball consistently and has an atrocious first touch.
At best, he should be a squad player.

26 Jun 2022 15:15:16
Bolger for me Fred would never be good enough. People like him because he runs all day, for me is because he is allways on the wrong Place.

26 Jun 2022 15:18:27
I imagine If De Jong comes we will finally see an extremely technically gifted midfielder player. Mind you Anderson looked better that most of this lot.

26 Jun 2022 15:34:46
But they were interested ken that is clear.

I agree mumbles with all what you say.

He is not good enough but in the season we just had he was one if the only few players that gave a crap

And if like some other players who are getting a clean slate if ten hag can imprive him which good managers can he might shock a few in here.

Not saying he's world class or will be, but he's what the rest of the teams attitude shoukd be.

26 Jun 2022 15:43:35
No it's not bolger. No offer made no desire to sign him at all. None. Zero.

26 Jun 2022 16:04:38
How do any of us know if Pep was interested in signing Fred or not? There was a lot of rumours at the time linking him with City.
I am not sure what all this mocking of Fred is about? He plays for Brazil regularly and I'm sure he won't be anywhere near their team if he could not "control the ball, pass the ball" or any of the other accusations being slapped at him.
As Bolger says, watch the games he played last year, and he played well in most. The problem is that he was deployed as a defensive midfielder in some and that's not his position. Its like playing Ddg at centre forward.

26 Jun 2022 16:10:53
Ken, how do you know that for a fact? Are you Fred's agent? Do you work for Man City?

26 Jun 2022 16:23:23
An easily obtainable interview with Fred in Four Two Four in 2018 suggests there were offers from both Manchester clubs, and Fred wanted to work with Mourinho. No idea to the credibility of Four Two Four, stopped reading comics years ago….

26 Jun 2022 16:46:18
So it only matters if an offer is put in that means you want the player

It was put by the eds on here many times city were interested.

26 Jun 2022 17:16:26
Change of wind fellas.
Man City according to you all always get there man and get the deal done.
If city wanted him they would have got him. That's your agenda from last week.
No way our amateurs could have out foxed city is there?
City never bifmd for the player.
They may have looked they may or may not have spoken to his agent we don't know.
If city had a desire to follow up interest they would have made an offer to the club but no such offer was registered.
Clubs will register interest in players all the time but then not follow up after scouting and other due dilligence.
I'd imagine they scouted and came to the obvious conclusion that for the epl his first touch and passing range is inadequate for a top team playing that style of football.
Let's see how much he plays and which club he plays for after united i'm not sure he will be grabing the attention of Europe's elite.

26 Jun 2022 18:22:59
I think De Jong - Fred - Bruno could see us get best out of Fred. I certainly don't expect to see Fred and McTominay in the same side now but competing against each other for one midfield slot.

26 Jun 2022 18:35:34
Be honest, are you getting worried yet that you’re not signing anyone?

26 Jun 2022 19:54:37
I sincerely hope that Bruno will not be a regular starter. He is the antithesis of ball retention.

26 Jun 2022 21:00:11
I am not worried for this reason alone.

EtH with no signings and whatever is left would get more than Ole with this lot plus 5 new signings.

26 Jun 2022 23:15:23
Keith,

No, we have got rid of a few, looks like another about the leave for some money as well, and we will sign 4 or 5 players. In fact, did you read any of the posts before you tried to troll?
