If this deal relies on the Mbappe to Madrid move to happen, then we might as well lock the thread right now. The Mbappe to Madrid links seem to have died and it looks like Mbappe might even sign a new deal at Monaco. I don't think he's leaving this summer.
Álvaro Morata | Chelsea player

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

What site is that from?
Allí has double the minutes, so Isco's stats actually look impressive compared
Because it's gone t*ts up.
Morata is a good player. You have to understand that career trajectories can be very different. Drogba at the age of 24 played for Guingamp.
So if you don't sign Morata, who else do you go for?
Kane.
Belotti.
It'd probably be Belotti as other possible targets seem to have moved on or aren't available. Belotti might not even be available, in which case we're up shit creek.
huh? what hard to understand, Morata wants to be "The Man", not somebody who rides coattails. Yeah, he won all these trophies last season, but did he really? He wants to make his own legacy, he can't do it at Real. Might as well go somewhere where he could forge his own. He's been blessed with talent might as well aspire to achieve greatness.
And his wife, she's a instagram model. I'm pretty sure she's going to be happy with the her sudden new luxurious lifestyle and being pampered instead of soliciting diet teas and makeup products to her followers. She's going to be fine, a designer dress stills look good under an expensive jacket. She's still relative young, she could always hang out with Victor's wife.
Is he the best player in the world yet?
I'm trying not to contemplate this but I'd imagine that Belotti and Icardi would be up there.
I get this feeling Morata will be Mourinho's (while he was at Chelsea) Rooney saga where he chased him all summer and in the end we kept him (unfortunately as it would seem now). If that's the case, we are so going to be up shit's creek that I am scared to imagine that scenario.
Yep, but someone up there said they didn't like the per 90 stats
Either Belotti, or going all in for Kane (something like 150m offer for Spurs and 300k/week for Kane). Third option might be Icardi.
Belotti it seems.
This is what I was thinking about for Matic.
Lukaku's still a chance.
Almost. What a difference from page 1 a few months ago when one person said he was worth £30m and then someone else said he won't cost that as he's a back up player!

This is such a silly way of thinking about it. Getting Kane is not a matter of throwing money at Spurs. This isn't football manager. Kane has no reason to be interested in us IMO.
No point in having Belotti as a backup target since Torino will know by then that we are desperate for a ST, and will fleece us for atleast as much as RM wants for Morata.
Just chump up the fecking cash and be done with it, try to make the 20m euros we are apart as much performance bonus based as possible.

Morata will sign however we will have to meet Real's asking price.
He's not even that good, why are we wasting our time chasing him? Move on to someone else.
Can we please pay the 80m and move on please? Each day delayed, the number of good strikers are reducing in the market.
Who has signed for who so far?
Welcome to Man United, always focusing on 1 player, just like 13/14, Bale, Fabregas whilst we could have gotten Thiago, Herrera ffs.
No one really, although Lacazette is very close to Arsenal now.
Exactly and they're pulling the same shit as us.
You're welcome. Just make sure to toggle the filter that the comparisons refer to, as "totals" are pretty much useless/irrelevant.Cheers.
Henderson beats out Pogba on some metrics, like the scousers used to claim.
i'm at the stage now that i don't care who the targets are, but can we please have at least Morata and maybe matic done in time for the tour?
This. If anything. Haul these two over the line at any cost.
Cut out the moaning. Only one top six club has signed more players than us. Let's see where we are in the next fortnight. It's the 1st of July ffs.
Whilst true, we have the weakest attack out of all of those clubs and are in need of reinforcements more than them all
True, but we also finished behind 5 of them teams, so they have a better starting point.
Yeah exactly. We've got the most ground to make up and more of our targets/options seem to become unattainable for various reasons each day.
Really? Lacazette is the only one who seems to be moving, and he's not good enough for us.
But Morata is?
Don't be afraid to love him fondly if he comes and he will give back so much you can't imagine right now (I know, it's a bit cheesy, but so is the boy)
Bigger club than Tottenham
