"Manchester United should be at least the sixth best team in England" 💭

Do you agree? 💬

[Zac Djellab @ZacDjellab]

Was Newcastle United's signing of Elanga under or overpriced?

Would Nicolas Jackson be a good signing for Man Utd? 🤔

I'm looking for another set of 20 Premier League fans for the 2025/26 season!

If you're free on the 28th of July in London and would like to be involved please reply to this!

@RitabhPandey I'm not sure that's the only reason why that term was applied to wingers, it has more to do with them cutting into the centre rather than hugging the touchline like traditional wingers. inverted full-backs do the same thing by moving into the centre, just for different reasons

[Michael McCubbin @MikeMcCub]

@SaveMeFromxG Agreed

Andoni Iraola: Rayo Vallecano > Bournemouth (2023)
Kepa Arrizabalaga: Real Madrid > Bournemouth (2024)
Dean Huijsen: Bournemouth > Real Madrid (2025) ?
Fran Garcia: Real Madrid > Bournemouth (2025) ?

The Lowdown is out on a Monday this week!

@MikeMcCub and myself are joined by the excellent @LyesBouzidi10 to preview the Champions League semi-finals!

2 of us backed Arsenal to win the whole thing...

What would Matheus Cunha bring to the Manchester United side?

[Michael McCubbin @MikeMcCub]

If I were Brighton, Forest, Fulham or even West Ham I'd be making serious enquiries about Delap... United and Chelsea are risky places to go and there's no guaranteed starting spot at Newcastle as long as Isak is around.

Discussing this and more on the latest Lowdown 👇

[Sky Sports Premier League @SkySportsPL]

Which club would suit Liam Delap the best if the forward was to leave Ipswich? 🤔

[Sky Sports Premier League @SkySportsPL]

Would Mbeumo suit Eddie Howe's style of play at Newcastle? 👀

[Michael McCubbin @MikeMcCub]

@jdshdavis True but only 2 or 3 players in the entire squad will be under the age of 25. Priming the next generation is important as well as bringing young energy into the camp to keep things fresh

[Michael McCubbin @MikeMcCub]

Seeing a lot of disbelief at this debate. My take:

- By WC 2026 Nwaneri will be 19 and could be scarily good
- He has developed in a possession system, like Tuchel's
- England need more creativity, and Bowen is primarily a scorer
- Ageing squad, we need a youngster in there imo

[Sky Sports Premier League @SkySportsPL]

Nwaneri or Bowen? 🤔

The Lowdown pick Thomas Tuchel’s 2026 England World Cup squad! 🏆

[Michael McCubbin @MikeMcCub]

@joel_s0 - I don't see this at all. Even this season Arsenal's football has still been primarily based on dominating the ball.
- fair point but I think this is partly because Arsenal have struggled to find goalscorers elsewhere in the team this year. Can see Nwaneri evolving next year

[Michael McCubbin @MikeMcCub]

and to conclude: it's not about who is the better player (obviously Bowen right now), but who will fit the system better. England have repeatedly failed in the past when picking players purely based on club form/importance

[Dougie Critchley @DougieCritchley]

This was a lot of fun!

For the first time, we did The Lowdown live and @LyesBouzidi10 and @MikeMcCub were on sensational form

We tried to “PREDICT The NEXT £100m TRANSFERS!”
