Let him go. Would like to replace him with a more smart and more technical player. Dumfries physicality is not enough to occupy the spot.

I think he’s a good RB. He’s just not a natural WB. When his job is to simply stop opposing wingers he’s pretty damn solid. He has locked Theo multiple times. Attacking wise he’s just piss poor with the ball at his feet.

It took him months to adapt to the team and now on the way out? this is really annoying, man, no chance of creating a team with chemistry with this stupid Chinese rats.
Real Madrid won 2022 CL beating better teams than them on paper, but the team chemistry made them win them all.

This guy was a mistake in the beginning with Inter, then he got a whole lot better and I thought ok he'll be fine. This year it appears he's regressed, in my mind, so now selling him is an option but for whom? Bellanova split the scene, Darmian sometimes, not Dumbo pls.
Inter will then need 2 RBs, along with a midfielder, a CB, maybe 2 goalkeepers, 2 forwards with little or no money to spend. Even if somebody offers 25M for him, that means only 5M into transfer coffers and that's being optimistic.

It’s a shame that Dumfries didn’t have a good final. It was such a great opportunity to put him in the shop window. Hell even if just had an average game. Instead I’ve seen numerous pundits and people on social media talking about how indecisive he was especially on that great ball from Dimarco. Such a shame.

I'm so sad we didn't have a deal made in January that he is sold to United in July. How many attacks will he fuck up himself? Fun fun fun.

So now it's probably gonna be Darmian and Dumfries alternating between them. Easily one of our attacking weaknesses in our squad.

This should be a big season for him. He has obvious limitations but he can definitely contribute more than he did last season. Just 1 goal in Serie A last season as a starting wingback is really poor. Maybe the World Cup and transfer rumours affected him a bit, but hoping to see something more offensively from him. Defensively he's actually improved this season imo.

They might have affected him a bit, but they didn't change his characteristics as a player. Offensively he's a very limited player and he has shown that numerous times. His lack of ideas when he has the ball in the final third is apparent. He's a defensive WB unlike Dimarco who is an offensive WB.

He showed a glimpse of offensive threat in his first season here, but that's not enough. He needs to improve on that aspect quite a lot and I'm not sure if he can ever achieve that.

I wouldn't call Dumfries a defensive WB. He's just a decent defender in tight spaces or as a block in the box.

He's far more offensive than defensive and that's the worrying thing. His talent is limited and always was, but he can make some useful runs that can help the team in transition. He's bad with the ball as well and gets confused and indecisive but there are still times where he can be useful and I think he doesn't care if it's a big or minor game, he'll do his thing. Sometimes frustrating, sometimes good enough.

Since he was a CB before he joined us, why don't we switch him as our RCB? We lack a decent RCB with speed & Dumfries's defence and pace must be adequate. Then we can find another RWB who can attack because it is obvious Dumfries hits his ceiling in offence.

don't you think as RCB nowadays u need a player with great decision making since opposing player will try to press u more? Dumfries is not good in decision making. hell, he always take his time when taking throw in.

Edit: Plus who know what will happen with the new offside rule....

He never played as a cb for PSV or Sparta?

If a suitable offer for this guy comes along we have to sell him asap. He is probably the easiest player to replace we have.
