Wonder if Carlo & Marcel have been impressed with Besic’s performances. Just reading the Sheff Utd forum, plenty of them like him but think they may not sign him as they’ve just spent big money (by their standards) on Berge and also have Lundstram.
I mean for where we aspire to me he’s not good enough really but I doubt his wages are anywhere near Schneiderlin / Sigurdsson’s and he‘s probably as useful if not more useful than both of them.

Besic
Did I miss anything re his absence from the squad yesterday? If not injured it seems surprising given recent form

Besic is excellent defensely and tidy (more technical with the ball, he’s probably more consistent and reliable than Lunny.
Lundstum is more hi -energy, more box to box and better allround game....better going forward than Besic.
Still think Lunny has the potential to be a top player but in recent weeks his form has dipped and he’s looked tired and not as good as Besic.
Yep. I was 100% up for trying to get Besic on a permanent during the JTW. That was before Sander. Unfortunately, in this situation, the loaned player is the logical one to step aside when working within a limited number of squad spots. Real shame as it seems Mo is a cracking lad and a very tidy player.
Lunny (when he’s on his game) is excellent at box to box
however much of his assets relates to his engine and workrate.....doubt he can keep up such high intensity every match.
The other aspect with Lunny is that he’s not as technical or as consistent as Besic or probably Sander, but Lunny has potential to be a big asset at the club.
Besic is a better defensive midfielder, excellent when we are out of possession, excellent at protecting the back 4, so if we are defending a lead then Besic is great to bring on as a sub against strong opposition. Sander is probably nearer to a Besic type with some Lunny box to box qualities too, combination of the two.
However the long term answer is very simple. If we’ve played 23 million for Sander
then Wilder has already decided he see’s him as our future, so he’s going to be integrated into the team as quickly as possible.
I like Besic but I think he’ll be going back in the summer and won’t come back. I think he’ll cost too much in wages and fees for us to buy him and to be back up.
