Had it with Grealish, and Dibling. It’s weird.

He’s going on loan most probably.
There's no way they're letting him go on loan as he'd only have a year left on his contract when he returns - they'll either sell him or he'll sign a massive new contract and his loan wages would be too high.

I wasn't like this for Grealish nor other players, but Mainoo's situation is different

In his presser, Moyes said that he's ready to 'go with what we've got' in regards to new signings.

He wouldn't commit himself to anything coming in, nothing imminent. Said that our defence is good, so didn't make it seem like it was a priority to get in new defenders.

He really does like to piss on your chips.

We're a couple of signings away (proper DM and RB) from having a properly functional team. Signing someone like Mainoo just because he's got a lot of talent would be mad, and expensive.

Let's just get a proper DM, a half decent RB and enjoy being a balanced and exciting side.

That’s a new phrase on me, but I like it!

It won't happen, but if the opportunity was there Mainoo is not a talent you would just pass over. He's not just any other player.

Right back is still the biggest priority for me, Garner can do a job as our sitting DM for a season.

Obviously I'd love us to also sign a big screening machine for DM, but if only one signing is possible then it has to be a starting RB

Surely we can sign Florentino Luis over Burnley.

Seems he's specifically asked to go out on loan:

He basically really wants to stay at Utd but knows while Amorin is there he has limited to non playing time. Taking a gamble that the manager gets the boot .

Waiting game

Amorin gets sacked he comes back into the fold.

Mainoo is definitely an attainable target here needs game time they won’t loan him to a club they see as a threat I bet he signs a new deal then goes on loan wolves sniffing around Hackney this morning

He can play DM as well.

Got all the attributes for it.
