@dharnishiqbal Maybe there’s a role for him in Champions League games but just doesn’t look cut out for the Prem, especially away from home.

@Genius 40 mins.

@AdamCrafton_ Remarkable, isn’t it? Zirkzee has been crap but loan with an option to buy (which inevitably won’t be taken up) is so bad.

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@TurkTalksFC Zirkzee’s position at the club is untenable now. To be overlooked today in favour of undercooked players like Cunha and Sesko, having played a full part in pre-season, is so damning.

@RonnLennon Crazy decision not to start Dalot today if he’s fit.

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@UtdNadd Have serious doubts over his suitability for the Premier League but he looks much more effective in this system.

@Bd_irB_ll @Sarfo15M 😂😂😂

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@RonnLennon Neville is the most underrated player in Premier League history.

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@RonnLennon Evans?

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@GraceOnFootball Carsley was born in Birmingham and has lived in England all his life. He played for Ireland because he qualified through his grandmother and that was his level. What are we doing here?

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@draper_rob @Carra23 @Zonal_Marking @Tim_Vickery Brilliant thread. (And, yes, Tuchel has lost all credibility and should go.)

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@umirf1 England were down to 10 against Mexico. They were in the ascendancy tonight. That’s the difference.

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@Sarfo15M Yep, twice: before he made his Leicester loan permanent and after he left them on a free. But good signing now in the circumstances.

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@FootballCliches New football cliche unlocked? Alan Shearer’s just said the hydration break ‘has come at the right time’ for England.

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@AcademyScoop Difficult one. I wanted Fernandes but am comfortable with not spending £85m on a player who is happy to join Spurs over United.

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@FootballCliches Thought he spoke very well on Monday Night Football.

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@RorySmith Said this to someone yesterday. VAR hasn’t just impacted the moment after a goal is scored. It’s fundamentally changed how teams play the game.

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@dharnishiqbal It’s madness, isn’t it? We’re living in the post-truth era.

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@UtdNadd @Sarfo15M Encouraging. Don’t know anything about Ederson but have thought for a while that Baleba and Fernandes would be ideal signings.

[Tom Bowles @tombowles]

@ronaldobrown_98 Have thought about this - I wanted McKenna to replace Ten Hag two years ago - but do think Carrick’s experience/success as a United player is significant.
