A deadline day off McAtee and Cannon coming in, with daka, soumare and souttar leaving would be fantastic.

 

I'm still ready to firmly plant my head into the wall at 11pm tomorrow though

But if he's shaved it he did it very recently. He had the beard at Preston.

This is one of the best posts of the transfer window.

Sheff Utd looking most likely for McAtee

As much as McAtee would be a luxury to have, I think Chair is more realistic and better for our current circumstances. 
 

Chair can cover the left wing which will give us Chair, Mavididi, Akgun and Fatawu as options before even mentioning McAteer and Wanya.

 

He can also cover the No.8 role which gives us Chair, KDH, Casadei and Praet. 
 

Would allow very good depth.

Wouldn’t surprise me 25 minutes against Cov aside he’s been poor this season imo 

I find it mad how he's been in team of the month etc... I don't think he's a bad player but he's become a bit overrated outside of here, certainly on his performances this season.

Of course McAtee will want to and be likely to end up at Sheffield United. He was there last season, helped them get promoted and to the FA cup semi finals and was loved by their fans.
 

Especially for a loan, it makes perfect sense for him to go back to where he is familiar and have a season at a higher level.

If he has any hope of breaking in to the Man City first team, it probably makes sense to spend a full season with a side who are trying to replicate a similar playing style

What if we offer a fee? Sheff won’t be able to compete then 

He will cost 25 mil with a buyback and 35 mil without. Ajax have inquired and werent able to pay the asking price. We simply cant afford him.

Sorry I just think we have too high of an opinion of ourselves talking like this.

 

He may know he is unlikely to break into the first team and so Premier League exposure will be important. And why is playing for us more important than Premier League experience in general? 
 

Or if he is choosing between playing in the Premier League and getting that experience vs Championship albeit with a similar style of play, the fact he will have had fond experiences of his time there is likely to be the decider. Obviously if both teams were in the Championship it’d be different.

I've said it probably makes sense, not that's the only thing he will or should consider calm down. He'd have to also back himself to shine in a United side that look likely to be involved in a relegation battle, if he goes there and struggles as part of the wider team being poor is the exposure actually that good.

Going back to the club you've already been succesful at who can now give you Premier League football trumps "Maresca knows Pep" tbf. 

 

Our brand of football being similar to Man City only really helps him if he truly, truly believes he has a future in the Man City starting 11 and he'd have to be obnoxiously confident for that.
