He's taken Rashford's spot on the plane.Got to be a good shout for the England NT?

Two friendlies at the end of March. He will be called up unless he goes on a dreadful run.Got to be a good shout for the England NT?
He was basically gifted a goal. West ham were shite tonight.14th goal of the season tonight, on one hell of a hot streak in front of goal
Yup. He’s immense off the ball, full of intensity and a constant threat in behind. 3 years left on his contract though so nobody is getting him for 45m.The type of player Klopp/Pool sign for about 45million and goes on to become a world beater for them.
Considering they played one half with 10 men I think we can cut them some slack for being ‘shite’He was basically gifted a goal. West ham were shite tonight.
First half they barely touched the ball, felt like they only defended most of it.Considering they played one half with 10 men I think we can cut them some slack for being ‘shite’
They more then matched them in the first half and it was pretty even before the red card.
We were strongly linked with him last summer, which I didn't get as I thought he was nowhere near our level and I really didn't want a jarrod in the team.We could do worse than him for an option on the right. His work-rate and tenacity is unreal.
If West Ham are looking for £120m plus for Rice then they'll probably be looking for £80-£90m for Bowen so a bit of a no go. Excellent player though. We really need to be scouting the Championship a bit more effectively.We could do worse than him for an option on the right. His work-rate and tenacity is unreal.
With the effort he puts in alone he’d be better than most of our players. Decent goal contributions too so I could see him being a squad player for us.Yeah I like him too from the couple of games I've seen. But I don't think he is good enough for United's ambitions though.
100%. As an example, there's another at Hull called Keane Lewis-Potter (21) who has 11 goals in the Championship this year, after 13 in L1 the season before. Not saying he specifically is Utd-quality but merely an example of a young, effective Championship player making great strides. I imagine KLP will end up in a mid-tier side like Palace or something but there are plenty of other similar-ilk players worth a deeper look at (Alex Scott and Antoine Semenyo at the dipper Bristol club, Carvalho at Fulham who looks en route to Liverpool, Brennan Johnson at Forest, Blackburn's Dolan and the list goes on)...If West Ham are looking for £120m plus for Rice then they'll probably be looking for £80-£90m for Bowen so a bit of a no go.

Bowen.Just because he is also English I want to ask -
Who is potentially better/ should we go for out of - Bowen or Madiueke of PSV?
To be fair you absolutely nailed itDidn't even think he was PL level tbh; so he's certainly surprised me.
Probably end up at a Leicester / West Ham level team.
I think you can see when a player's got it without a season more. He's clearly got it. Sometimes reminds me of Rooney in his finishing and workrate.Lets not go overboard , needs at least 1 more season of consistency of such "high "level
I remember people said the same thing about KaneLets not go overboard , needs at least 1 more season of consistency of such "high "level

Bowen any day of the week.Bowen or Raphinha?
Bowen.Bowen or Raphinha?
A reverse Dwight Gayle would have to be a player that did it in the PL but failed every time they played in The Championship. It would be a curious one.Meh, nothing more than a reverse Dwight Gayle.
