He'd better be a fucking world-beater with that shirt number
Too true. That's Phil Chapple's old shirt.
Mikel Alonso's you mean.
We've had some cracking 23s; Lawrie Wilson, Alonso, Joe Anyinsah, David Mooney, Semedo, Diawara, Spector, Michael Turner, Lisbie. Shit, maybe it's cursed actually.
I take it this is good news as that's our last available slot gon
Yeah it would be the first really stupid move from Bowyer / Gallen if it wasnt good
This 100%
In Bowyer and Gallen we trust.
I do agree that we should trust Bowyer/ Gallen at all times.... But Matt Smith anybody?
Really don’t think that Bowyer and Gallen can be blamed for Smith. Most likely he was the only option we could possibly bring in due to the fact we were under the transfer embargo at that point, only none of us were aware of it.

I wouldn't count him to be honest. That was a case of us losing a player unexpectedly and not being able to replace him with the player we wanted to. Bowyer wanted Gilbey but couldn't make a permanent signing so ended up reliant on getting a kid who was made available through his loan being cancelled as a stopgap to ensure we had someone to bring on. Bowyer's exact words were 'we need bodies'. Smith was the only body available to us at that time
Who was the last player we've either signed from man u or on loan. I can't think of any player. All the other big clubs I could name a couple but man u comes up blank
In the old days, before The Premier League, they used to buy our old has beens......didn't they Ralphie 😄
I did a bit of online studying and something that stood out for me was that the pass is in his head before he gets the ball. So you get very quick decent balls that can catch defenders out. Pace up front is this player's friend. Looks a very good buy to me for League One.

It's a weird shirt... Possibly the most inconsistent players in our history (barring Semedo who was constantly consistent).

With Bonne providing pace and Washington doing the donkey work and graft there should be something he can work with. And if Williams stays fit midfields will be tied in knots trying to stop both at once. (Assuming he lives up to the hype.)
I had always been sceptical about bringing in untried kids, but after Conor Gallagher not anymore. If this guy is on the books for United you'd think he'll more than do a job in the third division.

Looks a very tidy player with an excellent range of passes which, more importantly, he sees most of the time before he gets the ball.
Will make a bold prediction that he will be every much as good a player for us as Cullen was.
Very bold. Not sure I see in that video where he matches cullen, seems more like Morgan with less work rate. I'll judge him on the pitch though.
Indeed it is but not just from the video. We are talking about a player who is considered good enough by Ryan Giggs (who should know a thing or two about young players) to play 90 minutes in a winning side in Finland. Wales are currently ranked 23rd in the world and unbeaten in their last eight games so they aren't exactly no hopers in world football either.
I'm not saying he will be a world beater but should have enough about him to impose himself against the likes of Accrington Stanley (who the hell are they?)
As you say though the proof will be in the pudding!
Saw Levitt in that Finland v Wales game , very impressive , one of the better players on view . Saw a lot of the ball and passed it well . Will do well with Gibley in the middle I reckon .
I think it’s a compliment, I am sure he could have joined plenty of clubs closer to his Manchester base, and yet he came to us. An seriously must have some ability A: To be at United and B: for Giggs to make him full international .

Davies and Smith were not.
I would love to see the agent payments on those 2 deals. I would also like to know the real reasons they didn't come back for the restart.
Who was the last youngster Man Utd loaned us, Spector? I guess Bowyer's ability to develop young players has been noted.

Bowyer again demonstrates that he can attract some serious talent.
