What on earth is a "premium loan deal"?!

Would interpret as one with a significant loan fee on a high end player we probably couldn’t buy outright. Likes of Luiz or Palhinha probably in same category.

Would be unlikely to be sanctioned until much later on in the window. Suspect he will be an end of August addition if he comes.

Looks active and progressed enough if the Bobble has dropped it mate.

Any player that isn’t Jack Harrison

Cant really see him in the cm position more of out wide/ attacking mid. Still feel could see another two in midfield, esp if rumours tim to shef united on loan. Really need some power and height in that midfield

Played about half his games there for Sheffield united in their promotion year in the same side as Ndiaye mate, I'd say the champ is a decent test if he can hack it there and was only 19 at the time, I think right now he's better as a ten but Moyes has form for taking attacking mids and moulding them into good central mids

No, that would be a "standard loan deal". I'm not sure what is below "standard" but whatever is that's the Jack Harrison deal(s).

 

[bluestevon]

He wanted to play CM but was a better RB at the time. Seems like hes settled at RB then...all depends on the fee. Can play in a few positions. Works ok.

Dare I say it but a bit of a Neville signing.

I hope for Jack’s sake it’s not a dry loan.

 

[bluestevon]

He’s actually very solid and dependable. You wouldn’t see him laying goals on a plate like we saw from Patterson on Saturday put it that way.

When we have such a small squad, having a player that can play right back, right midfield and centre midfield would be valuable. It’s not a sexy signing, but a sensible one IF there’s truth to it.

We’re not signing five or six players for 20/30/40 million.

You could argue he’d be a more shrewd signing than Tete even though Tete was a free. Niles is rarely ever injured unlike the Fulham man.

Phil Neville

 

[bluestevon]

Maitland Niles is all sorts of average. I just don't see what he would give us that we don't already have.

Cover in three positions and probably starting at RB at home

 

[mikel_88]

Would grealish be the end of the interest in mcatee if we got him on loan

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Weirdly I don’t hate this if the price is sane.

I'd take him for Zero pence.

 

[Neiler]

Hope Grealish and James McAtee are big mates!
