I'd rather Rose was back tbh

Rose has pace and is more effective going forward.

Let's get Rose in for United away!

Aurier is a rb. You dont have to choose between the two of them.

When we signed him I immediately trawled the internet for a look and my first opinion was that he goes to ground far to easily.

My second opinion was that he is actually a good footballer and not just an athlete as a lot of the african players are.

He plays with his head up, his distribution is better than average and a hell of a lot better than Walkers ever was his touch is good and he is brave.

IMO he will become a great signing for us and a combination of Poch and his own football ability will stop the ging to ground problem we just have to be a bit patient with him.

Anyway 50 mill for Walker when sold and 26 mill to replace him with a better player, sounds like damned good business to me

Oh

Agree with that Grand. Never seen a FB look so comfortable on the opposite side either. Very astute signing

You know me I always call it as I see it and I know lots of you love Wanyama but for me he is not a good footballer. Good athlete maybe but not a good footballer.

Aurier showed us in Madrid what a good player he is (ignore the pen the numpty) he also showed us today even tho out of position he is confident and capable. Was I Trippier I would make sure I grabbed a good seat on that bench cos I think he is going to be back on it a hell of a lot this season

Captain

I agree totally, I know the experts were saying that their player had overun the ball but in my eyes it was an attempt at a last minute desperate tackle and their player was clever enough to win the pen.

I thought Aurier was excellent in Madrid and he even made Sissoko look a good player which is not easy to do
