Per Ornsteins column on the Yoro deal, Liverpool decided to not pursue a move due to not being to guarantee game time to Yoro, as he would be essentially 5th choice. Liverpool viewed him as a long term project and didn't want to fast track him.

5th choice for that sort of money? Bold move.

I haven't seen the lad play but by all accounts it seems like a great signing for united.
That being said, we have an excellent young cb in Quansah and I wouldn't have wanted to go into week 1 with this 18 year old from the French league as a starter for us. We are in a vastly different situation from united and I think its fair to speculate that while this may be a good signing for then I don't think it was the right move for us.
Good luck to the young lad, a tough place to go at his age and the level of expectation that will undoubtly be placed on him.

Liverpool obviously decided to step away. Whether that was to do with upsetting players like Quansah by paying an unproven lads sky high wages or because they felt that he would want to jump ship to Madrid the first opportunity he gets, I don’t know.
Never seen him play tbh, but I’m wondering if a young Yoro would be a better servant and asset to us over the next 3 years over someone like Inacio? Because with Madrid sniffing around, that’s maybe all the time he would spend with us.

5th choice?
I’d he another right footed left winger or something?

For that money I’d be going all in for inacio however I’d prefer svdb given a try and more game time for quansa.

If Edwards and co rate Inacio higher, and have more data to back him up as a signing, im all for it.
He looks fantastic.
{Ed002's Note - Would he also be fifth choice?}

Inacio signing would perhaps see VVD leave? Seems like Inacio would bee his replacement.
Maybe Inacio and SVB next season with Quansah and Konate?

I doubt he’ll be first choice for United. They’ll get De Ligt to play with Martinez.
