I don't think we have a firm budget. Think we can get him, Frenkie and Timber after we offload Baily/Jones/AWB
Darwin Núñez / signs for Liverpool

Nobody is paying 100m euros for him. It'll be 60-80 at most IMO.

Real Madrid still has the trio of Kross, Modric and Casemiro, just won the UCL for the 14th times and is already ready with Tchouameni, Camavinga and Valverde. At Man Utd, we have been looking for Roy Keane’s replacement since 2005. Utd's transfer business this summer so far

Benfica decides to lower his fee in half to incite the bidding war again, maybe?
More reasonable but still have my reservations he is suited to the type of football Ten Haag wants to play.
Who would you think fits his style better ?
I dont think he’ll cost more than 70m euros at the top end
Surely we could throw in Telles into the deal?
This gonna be a deadline day signing. Something like 50 mill + martial or pereira to seal the deal.
I won’t give specific names but surely better technical players to play on short spaces, against low blocks he has serious weaknesses, and supposedly United won’t be only a counterattack team, where his explosiveness can hurt more the opponents.
That’s more reasonable price, but it would be better to clarify if the signings are done according to ETH opinion.
I doubt we’ll sign a player he doesn't sign off

If we signed him he’d be chasing his first touch around Old Trafford. If Liverpool sign him he’ll be a Kane-Ruud hybrid.
Been a Scouse brief it seems
Would be very interesting seeing Liverpool and Citeh with fixed no.9's next season after all the talk of the game moving away from them due to their success without any for a while.
I fear that Nunez under Klopp would become their Kun Aguero...

He played well against us but not like a £85m striker or anywhere close to that money imo. I don't think we will be paying that much for him, but it seems we are determined to bring in a striker or forward, so there's that at least.
Would be open to him coming here, think we could do another out and out 9 - however I wouldn't go for it at £85m (and can't see we will)
I’m not a fan either, but Ten Hag was playing a literal lump up front for Ajax in Haller. Maybe he’s into these types of strikers.
Breaking......my arse!
It’s always the way online. Fans go mental over one particular player and then if he goes somewhere else - or looks like it - they lose their shit, as if that binary option they created in their heads actually meant there were no other players for us to buy.

Disappointing. Everybody that his written him off based on that YouTube video might be eating their words soon.
But he's a Uruguayan Andy Carroll, has no technique, can't control the ball blah blah 
Klopp seems pretty keen, what does he know Guess that leaves us with Teemo Pukki.

Guess that leaves us with Teemo Pukki.Meh, I won't lose any sleep over this.
He'll probably be good player for the however.
Wonder who we'll go for now.

Yep though absolutely mad that anyone does that over any player.
These lot are due a flop signing, let’s hope it’s this guy for 100m
Now everyone that was calling him a donkey and Lukaku 2.0 will do a 180 now Liverpool are signing him.
Watch as we fail to sign even a single one of Ten Hag's targets and start the next season with Ronaldo, Bruno, McFred, Varane, Maguire, Rashford, Sancho, Shawberto and Dalot. It's Mourinho all over again. Grim.
It's Mourinho all over again. Grim.Not sure who we'll go for as that looks like Nunez and Nkunku off the table for us. If we want a striker similar to Nunez, I liked the look of Zapata at Atalanta in the brief times I've seen them play, though he's not been prolific. Schick maybe?
I don't see any chance of him going to Liverpool. They don't tend to spend lots of money on just one player.
Liverpool will go and find another Diaz or Jota, someone in the £30-40m bracket, and within their system make them look like a £70-80m player.
It hurts, as a United fan, to see how seemless and smart their recruitment is. However, these links with Liverpool feel like classic spook Man Utd into putting down big money tactics.
That's not to say Liverpool haven't had a look at the guy. However, we've seen this loads in recent years. Liverpool will look at players and if the values go to crazy they'll back out and find someone else. Worse, that 'someone else' will almost always perfectly slot into their side. I'm incredibly bitter they haven't had more Minaminos. Feels like tasting vomit in my mouth to see how well they identify profiles of players and bring them into their team.
Not this again...Watch as we fail to sign even a single one of Ten Hag's targets and start the next season with Ronaldo, Bruno, McFred, Varane, Maguire, Rashford, Sancho, Shawberto and Dalot.
Off to the Jonathan David thread then
£85m is brazingo. Mercato’s in the bin
Be odd to see Liverpool play with a out and out striker.
ITK
He's the one I thought of too - let's go!Off to the Jonathan David thread then
It won't be £85m. I reckon he'll go for £50-60m.
