For around €40 million, a 23-year-old Donny van de Beek brings so many things to the plate for Man Utd.
He knows what a fluid system is like from Ajax. United demand a fluid front 4/5 who can constantly change positions on the pitch. Van de Beek is a master of that trade.

Allows United positional versatility. He is well versed in that and will help United go from 4-3-3 to 4-4-2 or to a 3-4-3 within seconds.
Has a brilliant footballing IQ. Won& #39;t always be overboard with his passing like Fernandes. He& #39;ll do the creation job with movement and graft.

That is where he& #39;s different to Fernandes and more similar to Jesse Lingard from two seasons ago.
Can& #39;t exactly play as a sole DM. But he needs to have the ability to express himself further up the pitch. Combine his IQ with his workrate and he& #39;s just a wonderful footballer.

If United get him for €40m, it may prove to be a better value for money than Bruno Fernandes.
He offers so much of what United need. From positional versatility, suitability to the system, intelligence, huge potential, work-ethic and depth. Reccomended him in the past too.
