Myles Lewis-Skelly from Arsenal getting linked again with us, Myko contract ending soon I believe, not seen MLS play is he any good.

Very good player got a few Red cards last season playing LB as his natural position is midfield. Arsenal were short with LB's last season and he stepped in when asked. Are we after signing him or loaning him GB??.

I saw this yesterday GB but thought it was a pipe dream mate. The lad is top quality. His position from the youth is actually in midfield but Mikel used him at LB and sometimes RB last season.
Head and shoulders above Myko.

I think it was to sign him mate.
13 Nov 2025 17:15:39
Really Can't see that being cheap but would definitely sign him if possible.
13 Nov 2025 17:23:20
It will be a loan if it happens.
13 Nov 2025 17:53:39
He will do, different class to Mykolenko.

Definitely a quality player, but absolutely no chance we get him, and he wouldn't make sense in our team.
He's a CM playing left back, so he constantly looks to drift into the middle. We need a LB who can overlap and give Grealish another option when he holds the ball up, not another player moving into the middle and into the same space as KDH and Garner.
Don't get me wrong, he would be a huge quality improvement on Mykolenko, but we can't just buy players because they're good without thinking of how they fit in the system - that's how we ended up in the situation we were in under Koeman and beyond, and why United have been so bad for 10 years.

What system?
We didn't end up in the situation by buying quality players that didn't work in a system that we never even had. We ended up in the situation by buying sh**e players that can't even get into their own sides, that became cast offs on over inflated wages and drained us dry whilst turning in lacklustre performances. Other than that we turned down multiple opportunities to buy quality players and instead took risks to appease friends of an owner that has zero clue about running a football club.
I would prefer us to come up with a system in the first place or buy quality players to help progress the team forward. We certainly shouldn't turn down a player based on the fact that he might not suit a player that may not even be here next season.
You are right though, zero chance we get him.

Not sure what our plan is to be honest. We recruited Dibling, Aznou, Rohl who have hardly played, Alacaraz who has limited playing time and Barry who is evidently not ready. All this is long term recruitment I guess, presumably being pushed by the new club management/recruitment team and obviously not in Moyes short term plans.
You can then add Armstrong and maybe another to the long term list. Maybe we can now focus on the short term needs and we all know what positions need strengthening. Hopefully so do the recruitment team with Moyes in agreement so he will use them right away. Fed up with this "not ready" bull-sh*t.
{Ed025's Note - im with you Mike, concentrate on today because tomorrow may never come..
