Just press speculation or an outside possibility of a loan deal? Leeds have been making overtures to United but seem to have been turned down. He was left out of Saturday's squad but could feature against us on Wednesday. I guess they are connecting him with Potter after their time together at Swansea and feel this could be a good fit. He is having to compete with Greenwood at present and thats not easy, given his massive potential. Still likely to stay at United but not beyond the bounds of possibility.

Wages?

Not sure we could guarantee him first team football at the moment, who would he displace.

Don't think he'd get in either, but that pace of the bench would be an option we don't have

Agreed. He is blisteringly quick.

289 posts under an existing Daniel James thread, so we need to start a new one.

And to think some people believe that Johnson is the only one who doesn't do attention to detail.

To stick up for the OP and the others who have found themselves in that position, I suppose for many NSC is an occasional pursuit rather than a lifestyle choice

Do we have to guarantee him a start then ?

Id take him all day long, also can play up front so covers a few positions for me. I think he will stay and tough it out at Utd for another season though before looking elsewhere.

Interesting 2nd comment on the original Dan James thread!

Thank you.
I don't post every day and didn't see the previous thread. Only trying to pass on what a little birdie told me this morning ( Manchester source ) Checking on press coverage, I noticed the Daily Star were running the story. The rumour is that it could be a loan deal and United favour us over Leeds. Apparently, United are leaving it late to make a decision.
Sorry if this has all been covered already.

Where's he fit in? Currently we seem to be going 3-5-2 not much room in that for a winger...

Don't think he'll go anywhere (and United wouldn't sanction it) unless the team he's loaned to guarantee him regular first team football. We won't.

We're playing more like 3-4-3 at the moment, and if we did sign him, he'd be competing mainly with Trossard (and possibly Izquierdo in due course) for the furthest left role on these three.

Personally I think the relationship with Potter puts us in a good place if we want him and United sanction the move. I understand GP and Dan were having a chat after the game

Pavilionaire · Sep 28, 2020

He's a terrific player but with Solly March nailing down the LWB slot, Connolly and Trossard both able to player wide left and work the left channel I don't see where James fits in. Even Jahanbaksh seems to have got his act together to be providing an option out wide right or central, and there's Izzy to come back too.

Yes, I fell foul of this the other day - searched for a topic and found none, so started one only to be pulled up for doing so by someone who'd stated the same topic. Not an easy app when dozens of topics are on the go.

That's what Warren Aspinall said on Radio Sussex after the match. Probably means nothing though given they know him well.

Because the don't see us as a rival, whereas.....

Or because our style of play is better aligned with theirs?

Or because Utd and The Leeds hate each other?
