He's going to have... matched

not as much grounding period or bedding in period that matched

perhaps Edison would have had. matched

And I also think he just allows a little bit more versatility in your midfield compared to what Edison would offer. matched

Edison's a good player. matched

Unfortunately, was a last-minute call-up in a pretty disappointing Brazil team in the World Cup. matched

So if you were watching him, go, nah, don't fancy him anymore because of how he was at the World Cup. matched

Perhaps not the greatest conclusion there, but he's a good player there, but not a Manchester United player at this current point in time. matched

So, on to the next. matched

Yep, they put me in the tactics truck to watch a bunch of games. matched

What I've seen so far is he's a tidy player. matched

Someone who has spent the majority of last season playing as the deepest midfielder, dropping deep, collecting the ball, making passes, allowing Moses Caicedo to get forward more, be more of an all-action football player. matched

United making a move for him, that price point, 48 plus 2, in a summer where Mateus Fernandes has gone for 85 million, where Tenali's gone for a fee that could reach up to 100 million. matched

That strikes me as some smart business. matched

This is a player that has been spoken of matched

quite highly and very often you know very often you hear the terms potential promise in the future so I think Andy I remember when the deal went through Andy I believe you tweeted that he's been seen as possibly being Casemiro's successor for the senior national team for Brazil and matched

And there's a lot of this talk about in a couple of years, he's going to be at this level. matched

In a couple of years, he's going to be at this level. matched

And I think at this point in time, when he's 22, he's tidy. matched

He's all right. matched
