What about Schtick? I've heard Bayern are interested.I feel like Lautaro is my hopefully pick now.

I literally feel his just Green at the minute like Andre Silva was for a while. Don’t really rate him. Can see him being a big move flop.What about Schtick? I've heard Bayern are interested.
Sign him and also get Dembele on a free.Antony has had one decent season in Europe and that's in the Dutch League too. He's incredibly unproven.
I'd be shocked if we go for him tbh.
Not against Dembele, but there'll probably be a massive deal if it comes to signing Dembele with a signing bonus and salary to compensate the free.Sign him and also get Dembele on a free.
That’s how free deals work. You want him to play for nothing?Not against Dembele, but there'll probably be a massive deal if it comes to signing Dembele with a signing bonus and salary to compensate the free.
Normally avoid anything Howden says like the plague because he’s an absolute twat and doesn’t have a clue but wasn’t he recently banging on about how we need to sign Nunez and how perfect he was for us
Red flag after red flag if you listen to this
RVN and Suarez were signed from Dutch League, so was Ronaldo Lima. Neymar was directly signed from Brazil. Antony is so obviously talented.Antony has had one decent season in Europe and that's in the Dutch League too. He's incredibly unproven.

Loads of BS… Nunez is the real deal. He has pace, ability to take defenders one on one, that striker instinct of being at the right place at the right time and clinical finishing. He reminds me so much of Ruud.

Yes, all of this.You are correct, and our statement should be winning the youth cup tonight.
Lets get our own house in order
Run the club properly, have players who want to work hard and put in a shift.
Have a manager with a vision of how to play and who is capable of implementing it
Have players who spend more time on the pitch and less time on the treatment table
Have a team that plays with energy and aggression and gets supporters off their seats
Pay appropriate wages and if you don't want to be here clear off
Clear the toxin out of our club then we can heal and start to grow
And yes the Glazers are a toxin at the heart of our club that is dragging us down
Ruud had much much better link up playLoads of BS… Nunez is the real deal. He has pace, ability to take defenders one on one, that striker instinct of being at the right place at the right time and clinical finishing. He reminds me so much of Ruud.

This has Newcastle written all over it. They will be desperate to splash the cash in the summer and this guy is the latest flavour of the month.Tweet

Well it's not Munez but close enough
Amen. I'd really hate it if we sign him.Dembele? Yes, an injury-prone player with a questionable attitude on big money is just what we need.

All PSG transfers are super agent transfers, the fees involved are not 100% real, if you know what I mean.Tweet

I only watched the first few minutes but he's spending an inordinate amount of time on the left wing for a 9. Is that tactical as we do not need another forward who likes to play of the left?
Loads of BS
Would maybe go to a bit more but anywhere near £100m then it's time to look elsewhere60 million maximum or wait till winter / next summer.
What makes you think that?This looks to be dead in the water
I don’t think we will match PSG/Newcastle if they do go for him. The word from the club seems to be we want a flexible forward (ie pressing winger who can probably play up top too when ronaldo is tired) For what’s it’s worth I think if we didn’t have Ronaldo we’d have gone all in this summer for a striker. I think the longterm plan was most likely to get Haaland but the club rushed into Ronaldo, yet another short term striker fix and duly fell apart in the meantimeWhat makes you think that?
Worth noting that FBref doesn't use the Portuguese league stats - so these stats are only from Champions League games where Benfica had a fecking tough draw. Out of the 600 minutes those stats are taken from, he played just 40 of those against Dynamo Kiev, and everything else would have been against Bayern, Barcelona, Ajax and Liverpool.
Not really.
Looking at his FBref report you can see he struggles in the build up. He's in 4 percentile for assists and 7 percentile for expected assists. Even more worrying is his pass attempts/completed 13 & 1 percentile respectively.
He looks like a player that finishes moves but will offer little more, comparable to Lakaku maybe? Is that the sort of forward we're after? We already have Ronaldo that at his age is very similar, great finisher but doesn't offer much else.
Nkunku falls into that category maybeI don’t think we will match PSG/Newcastle if they do go for him.

It's true that they are against tougher teams but that's a better matrix to judge him by. Furthermore, the eye test shows he struggles in the build-up too. I think he's a good player and would do a job but how long before people are on his back.Worth noting that FBref doesn't use the Portuguese league stats - so these stats are only from Champions League games where Benfica had a fecking tough draw.

His passing probably still isn't great, but it's going to look worse than it is there when you're only considering games against that level of competition.
yup Nkunku Antony or Richarlison or Raphinafalls into that category maybe
