Impressed with both of them lately.
If there's deals to be done in the summer I hope we try to make these permanent, i think both can improve a lot.
That was a good performance, if we can find a good central striker, oh, and sign Pearson, we could be a good side.

That wank commentator on itv4 second half thought Hoever was Sterling, called it him all second half. Did my head in.

Hoever was absolutely dreadful first half, he was excellent 2nd half.
I’m still not buying the Sterling love in, poor for their goal and almost fell for the same trick second half…..

Yeah Hoover looks decent also so if we can sign him also that's the right backs sorted it's always the left we are weakest on.

Hoever was woeful at left back which is fair.
Was ok at right back.
Sterling on the whole excellent but switched off once and was punished.

He really held his own against an in form quality winger. Was slow once and he took advantage. Overall I thought he had a great game though.

[br I think Sterling is struggling a bit injury wise which I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt over but that in itself is a worry if we’re going to sign him long term……

What about central defenders - when Jags retires and our loans go back that leaves us with just Wilmot

Surely they’re the same player. Sign one for right back and get a new left back in.

I’d be happy with both,give Hoever some games and he’ll get better and better.

We need about ten players in the summer, but if we can get deals done for sterling, hoever, Smallbone, Pearson, I think we wouldn't be far off once we add a striker.

The one thing I did like tonight was the size of our team in the later stages...big and strong is the way forward.. and was great to see Lowe pit their cb on his backside at one point..and how rattled did their players and manager (reminded me of wenger getting worked up) get as we got stuck into them..
Hopefully Neil will bring back the "land of the giants" and we outplay and outmuscle other teams from next year. Mentally Beat them before they even get on the pitch..

You can tell he's captained man utd at every level. Just what we need at the heart of the defence if we can get him up to speed.

Tuanzebe looked good tonight, got the impression from his initial interview that he had ideas of staying here if possible - on the face of tonight's performance looks like he could be another good acquisition - along with all the other ones you mentioned of course

Hoever was atrocious first half. Complete refusal to use his left foot, I sympathise because if he can't use his left at all then he's been hung out to dry, but three times in a row he avoided using his left and gave the ball straight to the opposition.
Then he had that error where he couldn't control the ball and it went out for a corner. I put this down to him being uncomfortable on the left hand side.
Second half he was much improved but only when switched back to the right.

Surely they’re the same player. Sign one for right back and get a new left back in. So we only have one RB. What happens when Sterling gets injured again? It makes sense to sign them both along with an out and out lb so that we have cover for both fullbacks. Both Hoever and Sterling can do a job at LB when required. I'd prefer either of them over Tymon in a back four.

I think he will bounce back though and be part of the 11 from next season

There’s plenty of decent PL fullbacks that would have struggled against there wingers. Let’s not forget they beat Boro 5-1
