@@mickbannerthe season prior he couldn’t get near the pitch at city. Is that because he wasn’t good enough? No, it was because they already had too many established players in his positions that he couldn’t prove he was significantly better than.

I think the Ronaldinho comparison is that he has very quick feet, baiting the defender into thinking they can knock it away from him but beating them to it every time.

Really like the approach of INEOS to signings so far, very calculated, lot’s of options and not offering over the odds for players. If we can get 3 or 4 over the line it’ll be a good summer.

Yoro for 62mln is crazy. Especially since he was on last year of contract. What's more they offered him 150k per week which is huge for 18 yo old player. Hopefully he won't turn out like a lot of youngsters we signed recently...

As a rival fan I wanted this kid at Arsenal hes very dynamic (seems like he could even play out wide) , excellent dribbler and first touch as well as creating chances hes like almost like a hybrid between Berbatov and Zlatan, seems very unpredictable in the box always does something less obvious .

Signing him gives me the same vibes to when Liverpool signed firminio. It’s one of those where people ask “he’s good, but is he good?” and then he’s signed and everyone goes “OF COURSE HES GOOD, why didn’t WE sign him?” United seem to have this in the bag (fingers crossed) and I am SO excited.

Hes really a pressing monster...and a literal monster..thats 1 of his underrated skillssss as well 🎉🎉

One of uniteds major issues last season was that our “playmakers” were in good positions but our attackers would only try to get in behind the defensive line on a Hail Mary. Hopefully this makes things easier for the wingers by creating some chaos

I'm not happy with him being better than I thought...

I've watched all his clips in bologna (he loves to receive the ball from the midfield and does his magic in front of center back bang bang it's a goal). Just like van persie😂😂

Don't get why there are not more Kluivert comparisons. Especially later career Kluivert when he would drop more. Combined with the obvious both tall Dutch strikers who score but not insane amounts.

Thank you so much James. I was brought up with samba football and total football: Cruyff and Ronaldinho are amongst my favorite players. I was gutted when United missed out on Ronaldinho and am excited to see some of this with Joshua. Serie A is slower than PL so I am hoping he can cut it. I am wondering if United will play differently next season and play him on the right or left and/or possibly play a more fluid front 3 like united had with martial greenwood and rashford. ten hag liked martial for this and also Wout though out did not have sufficient skill. Love to know your thoughts

What software do you use to do the video analysis? Thanks in advance.

Not surprised some of the top players from Motta’s time at Bolonga are getting big moves. Players like Zirkzee, Calafiori etc. The same will happen with Leverkusen once Alonso leaves

Sticking with the theme of Dutch Masters a lot of Zirkzee reminds me so much of Bergkamp. That great first touch and the vision and understanding to create for others really reminds me of that. Hopefully he can show what he's capable of at United.

He is great acquisition plays with flair and dazzle opposition lovely signing

Don't forget Van Nistelrooy is the key to give him tips of how to play in premier league.

I think this will help hojlund out a lot aswell there won’t be so much pressure on him altough I want to see them play together I highly doubt it

People comparing him to Weghorst are people that have zero football knowledge, comparing him to Marko Arnautović when he was at his peak I could understand. A big striker with a bit of pace, quick feet, creative, chips in with goals but not an out and out goal scorer. He'll help other players like Rashford, Garnacho, Amad and Antony play better by linking up with them and creating space by dragging players out of position.

I remember these kind of videos on Antony.

Hojlund and Zirkzee compliment each other in terms of offering stylistic/tactical options + the possibility of playing both does exist Zirkzee’s finishing feels average, and he’ll have less time in England in terms of speed of play. Might be a slow start. But what he could offer the likes of Bruno/Mount and others running beyond him could create goals
