Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson has been given a £100 million price tag amid interest from Manchester United and Manchester City, with ex-striker Marlon Harewood saying the England international is “definitely” worth that fee after shining since his 2024 move to the City Ground. Signed from Newcastle in a deal that helped Forest manage Financial Fair Play pressures, Anderson has evolved into a dynamic, two-way midfielder with six England caps and an Under-21 European title, and owner Evangelos Marinakis is expected to demand full value if heavyweights test Forest’s resolve.

He argued that, despite attacking flashes and goals, the wider squad simply lacks the consistent quality needed for a top-four push. Pointing to United’s failure to manage key moments and protect multiple leads, Souness framed the Bournemouth game as a snapshot of deeper structural issues. He claimed Champions League qualification looks unrealistic without major upgrades, questioning whether Amorim has the tools to transform the squad.

Highlighting United’s 17 first-half shots and Amorim’s bold switch to 4-4-2 when trailing, Neville said the tempo, intent and constant forward passes finally matched the club’s identity, noting fans stayed to applaud at full time instead of booing, valuing excitement even amid defensive flaws and missed chances.

Bruno Fernandes admits he felt hurt and sad when Manchester United signalled it would not be “so bad” if he left for a lucrative Saudi Pro League move, despite his loyalty, availability and longstanding impact as captain and chief creator across more than 300 appearances. Still under contract until at least 2027, Fernandes says family reasons, love for the club and talks with Amorim convinced him to stay, yet he resents feeling less valued than team-mates he believes defend the club less, arguing loyalty is no longer viewed with the same respect.

Manchester United twice surrendered leads and then failed to close out a frantic 4-4 draw against Bournemouth at Old Trafford, leaving captain Bruno Fernandes raging at full time as another chaotic performance under Ruben Amorim undermined their Champions League ambitions. Amorim praised his players’ effort but condemned lapses in concentration, especially conceding twice just after half-time and failing to manage a late throw-in before Eli Junior Kroupi’s equaliser, insisting United are losing points on details rather than systems or formations.

Ruben Amorim
December 2025

Ruben Amorim’s refusal to start Kobbie Mainoo in the Premier League, despite the midfielder’s explosive 2024 breakout and England impact, has fuelled anger among Manchester United fans who see homegrown talent as core to the club’s identity and now question the manager’s direction. Mainoo has logged just 183 league minutes and mostly late cameos while Casemiro starts, with Amorim even sniggering when asked about him after the West Ham draw before defending his selection rights, a reaction branded disrespectful by many supporters and criticised by former players such as Paul Scholes.
