You should know by now they are just bittered and I really think all these Dutch legends aren't happy for Wout, it seems they all have something against him. I'm so very sure they won't be saying all these trashes had it is De jong we signed. Well I wish and pray Wout prove them all wrong

Trust me, this is the right decision made by the boss. Wout will fit into ETH system very well. The manger was never convinced of Gakpo that’s why he didn’t sign. As a manager, you need to buy players in a position that is vulnerable. The manager need a first class striker in the summer that’s why he is no so worried. I prefer Wout in the No 9 role than even jao felix and Gakpo

So we should go for English players ?

And am guessing it is finished for Wolverhampton with (almost) a squad of Portuguese players.

This current United team is not so dépendant on Dutch players.. Malacia is still very young and behind Shaw in the pecking order.. Van de Beek is hardly being played even from the bench.. Wout on the other hand is already 30 and he’s coming on loan.. so how is this United team dépendant on Dutch players.. United is only very much dépendant on a very successful Dutch manager right now… 🔥🔥🔥👍
