    Rumours around tonight that we've asked Msn Utd to have their young left-back on loan. United to decide after their Super Cup match next week.

    He's a defensive midfielder, do you mean Borthwick-Jackson?

    Borthwick Jackson is not up to P:L - Fosu Mensah - different altogether!

    I suspect this means Capoue is off and lemina not coming

    He's versatile I think. Played in defence at the end of last season. Listed as a defender too in Fantasy Football.

    but a right back when he plays in defence
     
  6. good, you can never have too many right backs

    He's amazing.

    Quick and a beast. Has performed really well in pre season, so would be very surprised if they allowed him to leave.

    He's actually covered both full-back positions at United, plus played central defence. So he's very versatile.

    Could be something in this if Silva's a mate of Mourinho

    Yeah I've wondered about the alleged mate connection and if we could get Rashford on loan.

    Would be a great addition. Very quick, and knows the league well. Even though he mainly plays as a DM or RB, according to Utd fans, his best performances have been at CB, albeit he has only played there twice in the Prem and that was last year (2016). Once against us and the other time against Arsenal. Utd won both games. I wonder if we will use him as a CB? We certainly don't need him as a RB or DM.

    Don't stand in the way of a good football rumour. If we can add 4+4 and make 5 we will do!

    He has never played left back for United and never will:

    https://www.whoscored.com/Players/312739/Show/Timothy-Fosu-Mensah

    He hasn't played left back for their reserves either.

    He is a right back or defensive midfielder.

    Thanks. My mistake

    transfermarkt is far more reliable than whoscored.com.

    Says that he is manily a CDM but has played a lot at RB and CB and has played twice at LB for United, even scoring a goal from that position

    So he played twice at LB for the Under 23s (out of 13 appearances), and all his 12 first team appearances were elsewhere. One way or another he isn't a left back, or at the very least not someone you'd want to rely on at LB for this level (and Utd were even less adequately stocked at LB last season than RB).

    I made a mistake in my original post that started the thread, and I apologise. Although I wasn't totally wrong that he's been used very very occasionally as a left-back or on the left side of a back three.
