because we would never in a million years have been able to attract a player of that class. We now might get to enjoy him for half a season, which in-turn will help progress us.

Just as people said when one M Meyer was available.

He’d be a lot better in PVs Palace than he’s was in Roy’s.

No Meier wouldn't, we're a tough tackling outfit. That's why Eze can't through the middle right now, we need Schlupp in the middle. He bullied Liverpool at the start of the second half.

 


I ain't got nuthin' funny to say. Sorry.

Asked my Manure supporting golfing mates today why should we sign DVDB on loan and they replied no one knows because we have hardly ever seen him play to know how good or bad he is. General view is he in not very quick but a good passer of the ball. So it is anyone’s guess how good or bad he would be be if he ever joins us on loan. COYP

Good, I’m pleased.

Really excited at the prospect of seeing him in a Palace shirt.

I doubt it, this one might be accurate

Would be suprised if we are willing to pay a loan fee for him ; maybe worth doing if an option to buy. Can only assume that if we took him on the club think he may then be more open to a move. Not happy that we would be contributing to Man Utd particular brand of finance

According to click bait Man United believe he will fail at Palace, well they would say that if he is a hit it makes them look poor.

This is low risk for us, we should trust PV's judgement on midfield players. If he can get a tune out of DVB well that will be fantastic if he is a flop then we lose 4 month's wages then back he goes.

Worth a punt.

I haven't seen the clickbait article that you refer to but if
Man Ure really do think he will fail at Palace it already makes them look bad because they paid £38 million for him & didn't use him -

Also if they are that confident that he isn't going to deliver the goods then it wouldn't have been difficult for them to have agreed to an option to buy clause

Agreed but they may say he succeeds as a medium fish swimming into a little pool.

I expect the Moan United PR department have taken a leaf out of Boris and prepared two statements, one for if he succeeds the other for failure, either way it's not their fault.

However even the faithful at Old Trafford aren't that dumb these days, they will not be happy if he does well for us and will ask why couldn't the coaching staff do a better job.

It was one unnamed source who felt that he didn't have the necessary physicality to proper in the Premier League

I must admit I find it hard to get that excited about loans. He isn't our player and we are just the shop window.

I've seen a tweet from Alex Turk (Man U connection sports reporter?) stating that loan deal is done. Don't know how reliable Turk is.

Someone messaged me last night to say that it was not 'Done and dusted' due to developments.

In terms of his physicality as mentioned earlier, I have not seen enough of the player to form a judgement, all I do know is that he flourished at Ajax as a No 10.
