We’re being linked with Grealish & Maddison (who I would obviously rather have over Cantwell).
But if we can’t get those 2 what do people think of Todd Cantwell?
I think he looks like a great player and has an eye for goal and seems to have the knack of being in the right place at the right time.
Young and English but surely wouldn’t cost a bomb.

I know its only reports but saw we are heavily linked with Sean Longstaff again, I mean who even thinks that would be a good idea?
—————————
We could at least buy the other one to stop him scoring against us
Agree completely about the foreign thing. I love seeing a British core at United but we’d get absolutely stung for Maddison, or Grealish. I fail to believe that in all of Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Scandinavia and Eastern Europe (even if we ignore South America), there aren’t two players who can improve us in midfield and attack and who won’t cost the earth.

Very promising young talent, would not be against this signing.
One caveat, I am all for promising talent but the team, squad even is crying out for experience and leaders.

Absolute no to Sean longstaff!

Depends on the fee, but would rather a player who is a bit older and more experienced. We are crying out for another attacking midfield player.
Maddison or Grealish I hope

He a very good finisher. Rarely misses the target if getting a good chance on goal. But he needs to do a lot to his game. Passing, off the ball working, tracking back....

Incredible isn't it?
I was hoping we could find a defender from Europe instead of squandering £80m on Maguire.
Other teams can unearth these talents, while we struggle.

I like the look of him as well...

Jarrod Bowen is another player United could look at but will ignore, while Leicester will more than likely sign him for relatively nothing and in a season or two will be touted about for obscene amounts.

He's just been linked with us in the press, OP.
and as Arroin mentioned, Jarrod Bowen has been doing very well for about a season and a half at PL and plays on the right side, I believe.
There are players out there but as a few have mentioned we do need good experienced players. Ours are either past it or we're never top players to begin with. Without experience and the right players to make up what we're missing, we'll keep being inconsistent.

I don't know that much about him to be honest. Much of these transfer talks are all just click bait anyway. The Longstaff one reeks of that, especially as he's not even the best Longstaff (how many times have we read that in the past 24 hours).
What we really need in this window is a real creative spark, and midfielder who can put his foot on the ball and find that creative player or the forwards. That would be a fantastic window, though I won't hold my breath
