The vast majority of people against this have shown themselves to be lacking in football knowledge. This is literally the ideal kind of short term signing. Has no impact on summer or long term business but gives us an experienced player that can handle the league and if he scores even 5 goals that helps us win the EL or get into top 4 it’s worth it.Some people are tedious. We need a body to cover Martial until Rashford returns. The club wouldn’t be targeting the likes of Ighalo and King if it thought they were any sort of long term answer. Maguire and Bruno are what the club considers to be long term answers, hence the fees. We’re after a half decent goalscorer that could provide an option until Rashford comes back.
At worst, he’s a bit shit and doesn’t score many. At best, he’s a useful player that might actually be worth hanging on to in a squad capacity.
