The Caf's Ezza.
I was underwhelmed by this but you lot have made me get behind him now and I hope he's a huge success and the fans sing "Edison Cavani's army! Edison Cavani's army!"
Underrated postWhat if he’s given the number 7 tomorrow![]()

As they should. Your own Chief Exec is trolling you. That's how stupid he thinks you are.everyone is laughing at large parts of our fanbase.
so true. I love some of our fansNo that can't be true because it goes against the caf narrative.
Stop talking sense, it won’t go down well.No it implies we are planning ahead for Ighalo leaving, not bringing in a replacement for Ighalo this window would have been poor planning
I think they want us to actually go into a season with just the slightest semblance of a chance of competing for a major trophy whilst playing consistently entertaining football. It’s just a guess though.Re: Sancho

That’s how this works right?
Our fans are such babies. Never know what they actually want. This forum can be such a joke at times.
rubbish post.As they should. Your own Chief Exec is trolling you. That's how stupid he thinks you are.
He's arguably better than most forwards in the league.
entitled and childish really are the key words here.Rightly so. Imagine being so entitled and childish that your weekend is ruined by the club signing the wrong striker when that striker is on a free and only recently left one of the competitive clubs in Europe as their all time top scorer.
You’re being silly nowWe should've been doing that from the moment we signed him, not 2 days before the window closes.
Who do you support?As they should. Your own Chief Exec is trolling you. That's how stupid he thinks you are.
How many teams in the league would he start for?You have to be one of the best trolls around, there is no way you are serious.
Mate, I agree with you completely.How long is it going to be until he's even ready to play? He can't be close to being match fit given he's not had a club.
Does he even speak English?
Are the injuries not a huge concern?
So many questions and so many issues. Panic stations doesn't even begin to describe what this mess is.
Because we wanted a backup striker in August for the EL?I know that, the point I'm making is that having 2 backup strikers sort of hints that our transfer planning is a bit all over the place.
If we were planning on signing Cavani why extend Ighalo?
Just all seems a bit disjointed, no clear strategy, or worse, we are failing to implement our actual strategy and abandoning it and panic buying.
I've no real problem with signing Cavani if it's part of a concrete plan, but don't think it is. And if he's our last buy in this window the board have serious questions to answer.
Still hope he succeeds here mind.
I'm sure Everton fans were in disbelief when they got Rooney back. He was incredibly successful there as well.Rightly so. Imagine being so entitled and childish that your weekend is ruined by the club signing the wrong striker when that striker is on a free and only recently left one of the competitive clubs in Europe as their all time top scorer.
Yes I feel entitled to have my football club not run by vulture capitalists. So childish of me.entitled and childish really are the key words here.
Based on what?He's arguably better than most forwards in the league.
He'd probably start for the lower half of the table. So roughly 10 teams, I'd say.How many teams in the league would he start for?
Erm, his prolific goalscoring record throughout his career...Based on what?
the reaction to this signing is astonishingly entitled.Yes I feel entitled to have my football club not run by vulture capitalists. So childish of me.
Like that guy, who cover United news I quoted before?That's not really what the people who actually follow french football have been reporting. It's been nothing but positive .
Typical Woodward signing this; a name. I really thought we was moving on from these type of players, paying high wages for players on their way down. Sigh!Well then you'd better start saving to pony up for Haaland in 2022, instead of wasting millions on Cavani as a middle ground just to fail signing Haaland over 20 or 30 millions in two years, or worse, him choosing another team.
The team closest to sign Cavani was Benfica, they thought his wages weren't worth the player they'd get for the Liga NOS, how can anyone be happy to sign him while aiming for a top 4 finish in the EPL?. Callejon would make more sense
Ed thinks you are stupid. Please prove him wrong.rubbish post.
You're the expert or so you make it seem, you tell me.How many teams in the league would he start for?
Cool story bro.Like that guy, who cover United news I quoted before?
On this forum, the French residents, the French football following posters, I don't see anyone are that optimistic compared to when Zlatan signing.
You only have people are lapping up these new self claimed French football following journalists, without and evidence for their claims.
Glad you agree.You're the expert or so you make it seem, you tell me.
If starting for half the teams in the league means he is better than most forwards in the league, then maybe you are right.
I am not a big fan of this signing. I think that Cavani is too old, too injury prone and will be paid far too much for us to be even bother. However in terms of experience that's BS. The guy played with Napoli and with PSG alongside guys like Mbappe, Neymar and Hamsik. He worked under two of the most demanding people in football ie Al Thanis and De Laurentiis, the latter is a meaner version of Levi ie meaner in the terms of comparing Gattuso to Vinnie Jones type of being mean. He'll certainly doesn't lack experience to play for usIf the experience knows the league and the club well enough. Here Cavani is as new as the other guy to English football and Manchester...
Huh? Ighalo was always a stop gap signing, and that's fair enough.You’re being silly now
1 + 1A very good player in his peak. But why are we signing a 33 year old on 2 year contract? Would have loved signing him 6 years ago...
How does this fit into the rebuilding project? Is this a panic buy?
Probably cavani is happy he finally found someone willing to pay his 200k wages.
I hope i am wrong and this doesnt turn out to be another sanchez
May start for Arsenal. Only top 10 club i think he could start for. Well, Sheffield United too.He'd probably start for the lower half of the table. So roughly 10 teams, I'd say.
What does that even mean? Entitled to want my club to not sign bad players so Glazers can leech an extra few million and scrape fourth if we're lucky?the reaction to this signing is astonishingly entitled.
Wasn't Rooney shipped out after 1 season? I don't think he was particularly good for Everton, which is why they got rid of him so quickly.I'm sure Everton fans were in disbelief when they got Rooney back. He was incredibly successful there as well.
Obviously forgetting we already have a long term striker in the team, and the other striker we like is available only next summerHuh? Ighalo was always a stop gap signing, and that's fair enough.
But the point of a stop gap signing is surely to buy yourself time to get a long term solution that fits with your overall strategy... signing Cavani 2 days out isnt doing that, its another, albeit hopefully better, stop gap signing.
You must be a huge Cavani fanboy, never seen one before, to be honest.Glad you agree.
