Not that impressed, huge amount of money, aging, injury record is worrying.
I am not normally a doom and gloom poster, but in all honesty cant find anything good about this signing, but lets see how he does, he could be the sort of player we need right now.

I’m not happy about this signing at all, if he’s not good enough for PSG why are we giving him a two year contract. Going to be struck with him paying high wages next season. Do we ever learn.
I also don’t see this as an Ole transfer it doesn’t suit what he was doing in the market. Who the hell chooses these type of transfers and hands contacts out like lucky bags.

It's not really though is it...
I think this deal can only make sense if it's on a pay as you play basis.
An injury free 34 year old Cavani is a good player.
An injury prone 34 year old Cavani is just a waste of money and throwing money down the drain.
Sick to the stomach. Trust the process
That is just depressing. We are feeding on scraps.
Why do posters on here believe all the negative quotes these online ITKs spout? It really is strange.
Schweinsteiger was absolutely not brought in for rotation man.
Falcao came off an injury in fairness. I don’t see that as a bad deal, twas a loan and a chance, no harm was done.
Thats at least a bit better. If he flops we can feck him off in the summer.
What a shit signing. A 33 year old on massive wages, when his best years are now a good 3+ years behind him. Sign a proper right winger (there ARE other options than Sancho out there, Ed & Matt! Trust me on this!) and Greenwood can be the backup striker.
Long live the project! Building towards a strong tomorrow by signing young and hungry players! fecking hell the state of this club.

1+1 deal is very good for us. If successful extend him. If not just get rid. No big deal. Smart business.
I mean it's obvious: Remember the amount of times in RedCafe team selector, you know Martial needs a rest, but see Ighalo is the only other option .... so you have to pick Martial again!!
Cavani is a much better pick than Ighalo, no matter his age!
Because they're a bit simple and confirmation bias?
He's been pushed out of PSG to be fair, his future was decided when he decided to row with Neymar.
To be fair he’s entitled to his opinion too. Unnecessary mate.
How can we end up with this again? feck off.
Not going to judge too soon, but considering he had injury issues last season I am worried about this. On the other hand, we need some attacking reinforcements, having something is better than nothing I guess.
Hope this turns out more Zlatan and less Falcao.

If we pay more in agent fees that we would spend on Telles...
I dont believe them.
Stinks of desperation and highlights the obvious - Ed woodward is fecking clueless. This is the best we can do really? I hope Ole resigns - let Woodward take over the glazers wouldn’t care as long as they get their dividend.
awful signing, huge wages + agent fee, injury prone 33 year old never played in prem. incompetence of the highest order that flies against everything we have said about future signings. This club will be lucky to finish in europa spots. pathetic.
I’m fine with Cavani, suggested him before we got ighalo. He can teach the young uns how to work hard and how to head.
now we need people who can cross above knee height, that kid from Uruguay and telles might do the trick

Martial and Greenwood will be our strikers going forward. He is just a backup like Origi at Liverpool. This is a shrewd short term signing.
And I thought we'd be stringent in these Covid times.
I can understand us not bringing in Sancho in a 100 million plus deal but you dont go out and pay a 33yrs old, injury prone Cavani for 9 million for 2 campaigns.

Sancho's also coming. Chill.
What are his wages?!
Dont worry lads.. the shirt sales will pay for this wages..
Well that Sam Wallace tweet might calm them down a bit, they obviously believe it’s a 1yr deal now.
It's 1 year, chill out.
Interesting signing. Proven goalscorer and gives us much needed depth. 33y old yes, but only little over 1.5 years contract. And a free transfer. Im ok with this. Better than nothing.
Naa. They'll be on one til Sancho signs.
How do you know it’s £9m? Do you all believe Trumps tweets as well?
It's a one year deal with the option for two.
There's nothing shrewd about paying "mind-boggling wages" to an injury prone 33 year old.
2 years actually, says fabrizio romano
option of 2? pfft he wont stay fit, i hope he fails the medical. this deal is a disgrace.
