I hear Manchester is nice this time of year, Matheus
I’m not talking about Wolves here. 
Seems such an apt personality to add to their squad

He’s a headcase so easily can miss x amount of games a season
Definitely can be a match winner though
It’s the dressing room effect I am waiting for.
He seems like a person who would be absolutely toxic in the United dressing room when things get rough.

Good signing. Be interesting to see where he fits in though
Ahhhh bit sad about this but was always likely. Their urgency was far worse. Could have done with someone like him to bring on to unlock the door with a bit of magic in the final third.
He is actually a player that fits their system. Those weird winger/AM spots will suit him well.
Not sure he is exactly the right character for them at this stage though, I think someone like him might have worked better once United had added a few key core guys first. This could very easily go terribly wrong.
Does he really fit their system though? Gonna clash with Bruno in a lot of respects or force them to move bruno deeper.
He could replace garnacho out left i guess if they’re selling.
Does this mean they’re no longer interested in Gyokeres?
Maybe Bruno wants that Saudi move
But Bruno is not their system, he’s just their best player and tbh a lot of the talk this season has been where Bruno fits in to that.
Those weird inside winger roles are perfect for Cunha as he isn’t an out-and-out wide player and not really a striker either. I think it will give him the freedom he wants.
I’m making the assumption here that Amorim is going to continue to run with his system.
I didn’t think about that.
Well yes sorry I’m talking about team rather than system (my mistake copying the wording) because Bruno is undoubtedly going to be shoehorned into Amorim’s system whether it makes sense or not.
So yes, cunha might be a decent fit for the ‘system’ but is it going to work for the ‘team’ I’m not sure. They are going to overlap and get in each others way I feel.
Hopefully this deal gets confirmed. Didn’t want him at Arsenal. Seems like the right level for Utd given where they currently are.

Yeah, I’m not sure about that either, which is kinda what I was saying initially. I think the positions suit him but I think he is a guy you want to add to a well-functioning team as a piece to get you over the top or to bring something different (e.g. to break down low blocks) as opposed to someone to start a rebuild of sorts around.

@Mr_Nostalgia Apparently they’re open to sign another 10 as well.
I wonder if Man Utd are trying to get Bruno off their wage bill as part of their cost cutting.
I have got a funny feeling that they are going to regret this signing also. He might start well but there is something about him that i feel that as soon as he gets comfy he will down tools.
