Good player no doubt but plays in patches. 3 excellent games then goes off the face of the earth for the next 4. I really wanted him when Leicester went down. Excellent on his day though.

Thats like half the prem

Perhaps the Goons simply need to offer an additional quid to get Guimaraes?!

Tielemens is a good player but if i were in Uniteds position, neededing to rebuild the midfield and the two signings made were him and Santos from Chelsea then I'd be underwhelmed

With @billyiddo here, Not that good. United is doing what we used to (we at least did it with young players)

Zero chance he was on their list of top 5 targets, he has been bought because he was cheap and available.

One of my work colleagues is a Man U fan and the meltdown is hilarious, it’s not that Tielemens or Santos are bad players per se, it’s the fact that two months ago all the talk was over Anderson, Fernandes, Tchouameni and Tonali, and there is no denying it’s a drop off from those names.

I am happy for United to take talent about from Villa. United will be fighting for a CL place most likely no matter what next season, taking talent from Villa just leaves one less challenger for us.

I agree we need better. But if you are going to use very basic stats like that, it doesn't tell you much other than Richarlison is at a similar level whilst playing in a much worse team:

Kroupi - 1,683 minutes of Premier League football 13 goals, 0 assists
Richarlison - 1,960 minutes of Premier League football 11 goals, 4 assists

So Kroupi in a much better side has scored 2 more goals in about 3 less games and Richi has 4 more assists. There is far more to consider in a player but it doesn't scream out lets spend big money on him....

Kroupi was playing half the time as an AM.

Half of Richys goals come when we’re 3-0 down.

Mainoo & Tielmans in midfield together would get out ran every single game.

I saw Tielemans as a rotation/replacement for Mainoo. With CL games to worry about, I thought those two would rotate. I agree, together they would be an issue.

They signing another CM then?
