I don’t post on here often but I was wondering what everyone’s thoughts are on Danilo. I know he’s just come back from injury but he has been fairly anonymous in all the games I have watched him play and tends to give the ball away a lot. Should we sell in the Summer and if so would we get the money back we paid for him, which I think was £18 million

Injury has ruined Danilo’s season for sure and we don’t know how much its still affecting him.
That said as much as we like him he isn’t beyond criticism. He is 24 in a couple of weeks and really needs to be showing some of his undoubted promise soon. Its a fact he has been poor when he has played since his comeback and as said above he possibly didn’t progress as much as we were expecting last season either.
To sell this summer is too premature for me though, give him preseason, build up fitness and confidence again and see what happens. I know that club insiders think there is an exceptional talent there if we can unearth it.

Danilo desrves more time.
His injury was horiffic and it shouldn't be underestimated how difficult it is to come back and hit the ground running after something like that.
He is a nailed on member of our 25 man squad next season for me.

I thought he looked really good pre-season and thought this would be the season he really grew as a player.
He is definitely worth persisting with next season

Reminder Last summer Man Utd were enquiring about Danilo with the papers mentioning €40m fee, though we thought no way at that price. So he must be good.
Wait, Man Utd were enquiring after him…

I see Nicholas Dominguez has been called up to the Argentina squad.
First time since 2021.
