@samuelluckhurst Thank You Samuel, i have said the same that what we need is a proper 8 (scott) and a proper 6(Baleba). Anderson and Tonali are no 8, but that means putting Kobe on beach again, the Westham boy 8
is a good player but a different profile from what UTD needs.
#mufc scandalously let England's best players slip the net in 2023. If Elliot Anderson is gettable, they have to go all-out for him. If he isn't, the smart moves are Carlos Baleba and Alex Scott. Breaking down their Premier League midfield interest:

As a World Cup host, the U.S. shouldn't be flippantly barring officials from entering the country to do their jobs.
It's terribly backward.
It's also counterproductive.
Global sports competitions should improve international exchange and relations, not the reverse.
In 2023, Indonesia were stripped of the under-20 World Cup for refusing to allow the Israeli team entry.
Fifa's justification then was the vague "due to the current circumstances".
Quite a contrast to the hardline "FIFA is not involved in host immigration processes" now.
What an absolute disgrace. A FIFA-certified referee being denied entry to the United States purely because he is Somali.
The World Cup is meant to bring people together. This is racism, plain and simple. Shameful.

Any other organization that dismissed concerns like this only for them to be utterly exposed as true would be facing questions about the future of its leadership. As it is, several confederations have expressed their intention to let this man continue to run the sport.
