I didn't say we should sign Dembele only. I said we should sign 2 and Dembele should be one of them. If we can afford to buy only one then yeah I would prefer different players. I wanted to buy him as he is available for cut price.
No where did I say we should sign Dembele only. I thought I made it clear.
And I made it clear - in a part of my post that you incredibly conveniently ignored - that playing Dembele alongside anyone wouldn't work. Not only does his lack of positional discipline mess up the box between the CMs and centre-backs, but if you pair him with a destroyer you lose control of the midfield, and if you pair him with a regista you're stuck in the same situation with no midfield destroyer.
Regarding your other part, Meh, I never said he is mobile destroyer, Regista or whatever **** it is. I said We should sign defensive minded player along with Dembele. In case you failed to spot it, I also said it along with Fellaini, or even Strootman. Not just Dembele.
Mmyep, covered that already, predictably.
Why buy someone who can learn the job and become better player? I don't know. Ask SAF why he always buys players who aren't finished products.
Or perhaps you could ask SAF where the logic behind buying a player that wouldn't fit your midfield at all is.
Ferguson buys players who aren't finished products. He doesn't buy the WRONG players.
Never said we need him as destroyer. Repeating it for 10th time. I said right from first post, sign him along with other CM (Fellaini) not just him. Re your what has he proved point, he has proved he can play as CM and took us to a ride at OT playing superbly. He showed he can play as CM and all he needs is time and games to improve his weak areas.
Perhaps you need to read what I said, or do you only read the parts that you quoted? He would not fit with any other CM in United's two-man midfield.
He played CM IN A 4-4-2. It is totally different to what Ferguson is asking of his central midfielders. United's formation is by all intents and purposes a 4-2-3-1, in which the two central midfielders have to position themselves deep and form a box with the centre-backs. A midfield two in a 4-4-2 is all about energy. United's midfield two is about positional discipline, sensible passing, and setting tempos.
