Buy Auba for 60 million.
Arsenal buy Zaha for 80 million= 20 million in.
Sell Lukaku to Inter for 75 million.
= profit

I agree with this post.
Imagine if we sell lukaku to buy this guy. Better touch,finisher and ?
When the teams met Lukaku was the better striker in general play despite Aubameyang scoring a tap in. Lukaku obviously plays a pass as good as a goal but it will never be mentioned.
Yeah, Not much of a upgrade on general play. Not sure whose the better finisher is.
I'll definitely call my shrink if he arrives because it would be as daft as Tottenham offering £300,000 a week to Ozil and Robben to come and play for them. As that would go totally against their transfer policy.
His career basically started to take off when he signed for Dortmund at age 24.
If we buy him it'll be a good choice. He doesn't look like he's slowing down at all. He's still fast as hell. And has a good shot on him. Could get another solid 3 or 4 years out of him.
Fast, good shot, goes missing in games other than that, 30 years old, 70 million. Sensational signing.
Straight swap with Sanchez maybe? Otherwise, nay.
No.
Stop buying old players please, I'd much rather we go big for a talent like Piatek. We've already missed out on Jovic, these young strikers have potential to be the next stars and the last round of strikers (Aguero & Benzeme) we missed out.

I wouldnt be suprised if we sign him or Rakitic . We cant sign only young players we do need a bit of quality experienced players mixed in
I'd be worried what we do with him at 31/32 when he'll probably look crap. Daft wages and fee we have to write-off. We'll sell him to a Turkish team for 4 million I bet.
I don't believe this is happening though. Did this originate from talksport?
It's a player we should've bought, scores more than a goal every other game. Strange how Arsenal are said to be selling him unless they're going with a different formation. He seems to have a good thing going there so it's a bit strange.

An obvious yes.
I wouldn't say 70m. 40m should be max. 70 is just insanely stupid.
Yeah, Lukaku's played some world class passes/through balls. He's pretty underrated in that regard. Some were so good that they caught our other attackers by surprise.
I still would prefer a better technical striker but credit where it's due.
If we sell Lukaku a big YES! If we dont sell Lukaku i would sign him as well.
I love Rashford but i think the pressure on him as our number one striker would be too huge. Especially if we have a bad start and he isn't performing from day one.
Auba knows where the goal is, he could be useful for us i'm sure.

Lukaku also puts in good crosses. Maybe the best in the current squad.
I think he is our best crosser, tbh.
Nay. Nay. And thrice nay.
If he was 25, yeah. But it’s purely his age that concerns me.
And too ugly.
When your best competition is Young
Yes 4 years ago when i was hoping we would sign him.
But with Solskjaers philosophy with young talent you can mould, it does not make any sense.

So he's Lukaku with a better first touch. Wouldn't work for us based on the ridiculously low amount of chances we've managed to serve up for Romelu.
Of course yes. Can’t all be about youth, need some experience and despite his age he’s still fast. Wasn’t great last season and still top scorer. Why would Arsenal sell to us though?
I'd rather have Lacazette but then I guess the reason is obvious as to why Arsenal are willing to let Aubameyang go and not him
If Lukaku goes we will certainly need to buy a striker as theres no way Rashford is going to score enough goals
I certainly don't think he would make some huge impact for you. He accelerates faster than Lukaku and is better at getting in behind (although both of them have good movement) so potentially a good player for Pogba to link up with, but I do think there's a reason Arsenal were allowed a run at him and no top side were all that interested.
I also think it's a moot point. With the signings you've made thus far this window (AWB, James) it's pretty clear that Ole is aiming to build something for the long term with hungry, young and talented players.
He's not about to throw loads of money at a 30 year old striker like Aubameyang, that's the kind of signing I imagine Ole wants to move you away from. The kind where the player will probably view you as his last big paying contract that he can sit on, Sanchez style.

He would instantly be our best forward, so yes.
If he is following SAF's philosophy, then it means we will have at least one experienced striker in the squad. Fergie usually had 4.
Would rather pinch Son from your lot, he’d mix nicely with Rashford
Better than Lukaku but still not all round. Laca is more complete.
I read somewhere that Ji Sung Park has already been tryingYou're very welcome to try.
Don't even want to imagine the fee Levy would demand.I read somewhere that Ji Sung Park has already been trying
Yes.
Nay. Depends how Ole wants to set up. Haller or Yedder for me.
Nah
If we want a forward to come in as and when then Ben Yedder is our guy.
