Alan temple reporting we are talking to Ferencvaros in Hungary about a loan for 21 year old Issac Pappoe.

Plays central or attacking mid.

 
Just had a look at some of his clips. Looks to be a bit of a box-to-box midfielder. Good mix of him keeping possession and spraying passes from deep, but also a few goal and assists coming from breaking late in to the box.

The proof will be on the pudding, of course, but on first look he seems a decent option.

Games are often won and lost in midfield, so I like that we are not taking any chances with numbers.

Sibbald
Sevelj
Camara
Stephenson?
Pappoe?

That would give us a fair bit of depth even before you bring Odada and O'Donnell into the conversation.

Suppose it depends what formation Goodwin plans on playing most of the games with, last year 3 out of those 5 would be starting most of the games with at least 1 coming on as a sub, 1 or 2 injuries and we're looking light again

Who we thinking/wanting as captain? Id love to see graham as captain but due to his injury record we cant chance it after the Doc situation the last 2 seasons. Ferry and Sev have the right attitude but are they true leaders on and off the park?

Graham or Bert of the current squad. Captain probably hasn't been signed yet tho.

 

Tbh id prefer players, especially foreign players to prove themselves for at least a year first before being made captain. Babunski never once looked like captain material to me last year, bit different if we're bringing in somone like a Gallacher or Docherty to be captain but ideally they will prove theyre a leader first

Good to see the young lads getting a goal although i said the same about forbes this time last year..

Payment sent 👍

Whats the story with mcleod? I thought he was out of contract

 
They'll have offered a contract so the compensation clause kicks in, whether he's accepted it......

 
That makes the most sense i suppose, ties in with him looking like he doesnt want to be there although that may not be true at all. Does anyone know how he got on at southampton, it obviously wasnt a success to the point they wanted to sign him but i remember him scoring a double earlier in the season and heard nothing since.

Dont know anything about the boy dewar but adams seemed to have a decent spell at kelty? and is surley worth keeping and putting out on loan at a higher level so he can be recalled if an injury happens to new keeper/dave. Hopefully next season he could push to be number 2 or even 1. Im assumimg newman is now away?

Are united constantly missing a trick with not often having the strios available for the start of the school holidays? Loads of teams have announced their trips- in Aberdeen, they've only done the away 9ne but a ton of kids (and some adults) strutting about in it already.

No excuse with how slow we've been in the last 10 years. Of course manufacturers will prioritise the teams that sell the most strips, we even saw celtics new home top being released before the season was finished this year. But united are well behind every year, in recent memory the fun tops always seem to be out before ours, i think our kits were even both being made by macron at one point while this was happening.
