ITK 8 on Reddit linked us with Bas Dost, but seems highly unlikely we would take both Bruno and him.
Relax, it really isnt. It was the situation for the last 21 games of last season (over half a season with Ole), where we were 3rd in the league over that period and had an OK cup record. Added on a proper winger with James now. Adding in some of the most promising youth players we've had in ages, in positions of need. Adding in a very good right back that improves us in every aspect. Probably will at least add in a very good centerback that improves us massively on the ball and provides a consistent CB pairing for the first time in ages. Midfield we are worse off without Herrera but it's not like he's been a world beater for us.That is scary reading, scary, scary, scary reading.
That is legtimately worse than half the teams in the PL.
According to many, he said not this summer.... big difference. Think he just didn't want to leave this summer more than anything.We already have, he said no.
Well, that’s what I meant? No as in this year. What’s potentially happening near year is currently irrelevant.According to many, he said not this summer.... big difference. Think he just didn't want to leave this summer more than anything.
Because the choice is what we've got or Wilson for 70m? The feckWhat do you suggest then?
Keeping a player who wants to leave and isn’t a part of the manager’s plans?
Sign some bang average PL “proven” forward like Wilson for 70m or something ridiculous like that?
DING DING DING DINGRashford, Greenwood, Martial, Sanchez.
Rather invest the money in better midfield and CB.
That was quite an exchange
So you haven’t provided a single alternative in two posts, fantastic input.Because the choice is what we've got or Wilson for 70m? The feck
AgreedBen Yedder fits the bill for me. Poacher, decent on the ball, still a decent age but not really going to get in the way of the youngsters if they're as good as we hope. Would be perfect in my book.
We'll go in for Sancho. Probably won't get him though.
They are not CFs.Dybala
Absolutely scary, we might score 30 goals this season with that attack if we are lucky based on their stats last season.That is scary reading, scary, scary, scary reading.

Nah, Napoli's chairman has already offered Icardi's wife a role in his Christmas B movie, they'll do the deal eventually I reckon.I’m really scared it will be Icardi.
Any reply suggesting Sanchez is automatically disqualified.DING DING DING DING
We have a winner.
A man who went to west ham.They are not CFs.
I wanted us to go for Haller, now it's too late I don't think we're signing a new striker. We might in January though
Rashford
That's a list of good striking options... for Leicester!I think the plan is confirm to sell him, just a matter of time.
Once he's sold, I predict there'll be no new CF signing.
Ole's recent comment-praise about Sanchez may meant a subtle hints he'll be an option. Ole also praised Greenwood heavily promising him more games in interviews, so there's that. Ole often mentioned Martial can play striker as an option often in interviews. So we got 4 options for CF (all of 'em can play CF), plenty enough considering we have plenty more attackers (wings, forwards, SS, CAM) to use while the 4 themselves are flexible enough to play the other attacking roles. Using two CFs or 2 striker formations nowadays doesn't work best.
Having 4 Strikers is also a page in SAF's book which Ole himself may fancy.
- Rashford
- Martial
- Greenwood
- Sanchez
Genuinely not sure if serious...Rashford / Greenwood / Martial should be enough, but I wouldn’t mind someone like Ben Yedder on the cheap.
I like this idea. It's certainly better than than doing nothing while Lukaku waiting for his deal to Serie A.Timo Werner.
- Perfect age (23)
- Can pretty much play anywhere in the attack
- Only 1 year left on his deal with RB Leipzig
- Pace is his strenght, would suit Ole’s system
Having Rashford, Greenwood, Sanchez, Martial, James and Werner would be enough for the upcoming season. Next summer add Sancho and get rid of Alexis and Martial if he does not step up. Attack sorted for 10 years.
Not realistic because we, as per usual, overslept the moment to get him. He was dirty cheap compared to the prices you see now. Guess we still counted on our current options..Piatek would be an amazing signing. But probably not realistic.
Yep this is what'll likely happen, maybe without the Bruno Fernandez bit, those praying for Lukaku to go so we get someone better in through the door are going to be disappointed.I'm thinking we won't sign one. We'll get Bruno Fernandes instead and ask Martial, Sanchez, and Greenwood to fill in at centre forward whenever Rashford isn't playing.
