He was bought for £19m just 18 months ago. If we weren't going to buy him at that price why should we buy him at £100m???? To do that would be the definition of 'more money than sense'. I also really don't fancy going through yet another kamakazee summer transfer window where we fck around with a big name signing that doesn't end up happening anyway. I know it's fashionable to go for the media hyped overpriced flavour of the month, but how about we do our own homework and go for another excellent striker for about £30m currently also smashing it up in the Bundesligue whose signing will be a lot more straightforward? His name is Weghorst, he plays for Wolfsburg and he has all the attributes to suit the Prem and United. And if we want a big signing which might actually have a realistic chance of going through then let's put that money into bringing in Declan Rice.
I would go for Donnarumma on a free, Rice, Varane and another striker for the same money that we get for Martial - and keep Cavani
Why are you bringing up a solid striker that most of us have never heard of? Further, why would you suggest that we go into summer transfer without the firm goal of smashing the transfer record and cause media mayhem? You're bonkers, Treble!
Good to hear that Bailly has signed a new three year contract. He's always been a useful defender when he stays fit.
Then Rice free's Pogba up to do his thing! Pogba should be absolutely central to what we do for the next half decade. No doubt, him and Bruno are essential.
I'd rather we pay that for Rice than Sancho tbh. You'll probably sell him to Chelsea anyway. ****ers.
On a needs must basis, Sancho is more pressing. Accept Diallo is with us but there's a hole at right wing that the likes of Rashford and James aren't up to. Get Sancho with Diallo as back up and we've got options there. @Big Ern , how's about Beanz, Martial and £50mill for Rice?!? Could maybe throw Matic in as well.
You'll never get McTominay mate, it don't work that way. Beanz, Martial and Fred. You're lucky we're not rinsing you for Soucek as well. Be grateful.
Mate football is already fcked. I agree, it's a joke of a price tag but the way the market is, the fact we always pay over the odds, and the fact he's English, unfortunately makes that a reality. Don't know about Tonali btw, but I think there are good options abroad. For example, better than Kane I'd rate Weghorst. I'm sure he'll end up at Bayern.
Ollie Watkins would be a better buy and fit our style better than Kane imo, trouble is he would probably cost as much now.
I haven't watched him enough either tbh. Are you sure? Ollie/Ole could get quite confusing in the dressing room.
