You would wonder will that be it for midfield now, Kobbie, Mount, Santo and Tielemans? Like the way this was done, discreet and quickly, like the old days, no dragging out for weeks in the media.

This window is a real positive with how we are approaching it. Only time will tell how good it is, but I like it so far.
As for Mount, I think he will either rotate with Fernandes, be a rotational squad player, or the club will look to get him off the books at a loss, or loan with option to buy.
I like him as a player when fit. He just seems to pick up injuries every few games.

We need one more central midfielder before the window closes. I can see it being Baleba.

Could you see the last 2 being Santos and Yeilemans?
Let's just wait and see.
One more cm, lb rb cb cf lw all still need attention and better players.
Our full backs on both sides are useless in attack and suspect in defence.
Cb we could do with a bit of pace and experience.
Cm ideally 1 more.
Cf, personally id prefer if they sign someone with experience rather than the likes of Krupi.
Lw not as urgent imo.
So who are the outs still to come?
Mount a strong possibility.
Zirkzee a strong possibility.
Maz a possibility.
Amass on loan.
Bayindir a definite.
Ugarte stays.
Martinez a weak possibility.
Maguire a possibility.
Rashford a strong possibility.
Still lots of business to conclude.
Good start with Santos and Teilemans imo.

Maguire is not a possibility. The club convinced him to stay on, and his form under Carrick was good. He has his limitations, but he's an important player for us.
13 Jul 2026 17:11:04
When Baleba signs, it'll be Baleba and Santos sharing the 6, Mainoo and Tielemans sharing the 8, Bruno and Mount as 10 options.
Exciting times!
Even more exciting when Lewis Hall signs, too.
13 Jul 2026 18:02:00
We won't need a LW if Rashford is staying.
Baleba would be a cool final addition to midfield.
We may well need another full back, though, and that'll be an excellent summer.

We will need a LW if the petulant one stays. He needs to be challenged for his spot, otherwise will revert to type, knowing he gets a game regardless of the lack of effort he puts in.
Unless, and I doubt it, he has received the proverbial kick up the a55 he needed.
