What they're saying

"
You can see United's options and BBC Sport's Simon Stone's take on things on the post above. Robert: Joshua Zirkzee and Manuel Ugarte have had their chances but failed to deliver. Benjamin Sesko is still a question mark for me, and although he looks like he has potential he must make the most of this new season if he is to wear the shirt for more seasons after that.
