PREDICTED SIGNINGS
Gareth Bale/Willian
The right wing seems to TFF like a real weak point in a strong squad. We think that Manchester United have a good chance of signing Gareth Bale unless Mauricio Pochettino joins Real Madrid. But the resignation of Zinedine Zidane had complicated matters and the club may have to opt for Willian instead.
Fred
The Brazilian midfielder seems nailed on to join the club.
Diogo Dalot
An Uber-talented teenager who’s been tracked by several elite clubs. Manchester United may have won the race.
Toby Alderweireld
Will cost an absolute fortune and at 29 some will wonder whetehr he’s worth it.
PREDICTED SALES
Juan Mata
A great squad member and a popular member of the club. But, at 30 his influence is waning and may not get too many starts if he stays on next term.
Chris Smalling
The ex-Maidstone man is a great athlete but simply doesn’t have the feet for the top level.
Matteo Darmian
Has resembled a ghost for the last two years. Surely it’s time for a move.
Michael Carrick
Retired
Marouane Fellaini
Jose Mourinho must know a lot more than TFF about football if he wants the clumsy Belgian to stay at the club. A lot more.
Daley Blind
The artful Dutchman is nice on the eye and played particularly well at least back under Louis van Gaal. But he lacks the power or athleticism to be a really elite Premier League full back.
TO STAY
Anthony Martial
Surely a player this good cannot be allowed to leave Manchester United.
Luke Shaw
Ditto – with consistency he can be the best full back in the Premier League.
