The thing is, who would play DM? I'm not sure anyone we have is good enough. Fred I'm not sure about, McTominay is better box-to-box and Garner isn't ready to be a starter. Heard Lindelof mentioned somewhere, might be worth a try, but again doesn't seem the greatest solution.

Scott has the best chance, Fred is definitely a better box to box player and i must say i think garner is ready to get some games. Of the 3 he is the most natural to be a sitting player albeit he offers alot more

Well, in that case I think it would be a priority, but currently from what I've heard it seems to me that a DM will be signed after Varane and Trippier and only if we manage to sell some players to raise funds.

DM has never been on our wishlist this summer. It's always been RW, CB, RB and a young CM (i.e. an Amad type signing-one for the future). If Pogba leaves we'd probably look to sign a like-for-like replacement rather than a DM. Wouldn't surprise me at all then if Ole did try to play Scotty at the base of a midfield three.
But not convinced it would work. There is a reason for McFred....neither is dominant enough defensively to anchor the midfield on their own. Well, in that case I think it would be a priority, but currently from what I've heard it seems to me that a DM will be signed after Varane and Trippier and only if we manage to sell some players to raise funds.

We knew it was coming. He's here for the long haul now whether we like it or not, he just deflects too much anger from the Glazers for any other outcome unless we collapse totally.
And despite everything, I still desperately want him to lift a trophy.

And despite everything, I still desperately want him to lift a trophy. We know how it goes. If he doesn't get top 4, he will be gone. If they insist on giving him a new deal, they now have to back him. Sancho done, on to the next. In reality, if he doesn't win a trophy this season, he has to go, but top 4 will keep him in a job.

Spends £400m, bottles a final and 4 semi-finals, wins nothing because thats only for ego's, but wait for it.. makes significant 'progress'. Charming.

It’s ridiculous that standards and expectations haven’t risen at all despite all the money we’ve spent over the last several years.
Ole may have steadied the ship and stopped us bouncing in and out of the top 4 (although I suspect Bruno deserves most of the credit for that ) but the fact remains he’s presided over a four year trophy drought and his predecessors between them won the FA cup the league cup and the Europa with much weaker squads.

Think we all knew that this was coming, and yep, top four will keep him at the club going forward. Just hope that Sancho ,and anyone else he buys, make the difference between success and failure.

Looks like we ain't getting anybody else. We will sell Pogba though. Ain't no way this lot will let him walk for nothing.
