Would be the cherry on top of the cake. Signing a striker who can't score after having just signed a centre back who gets refused entry on Nemesis Inferno.
Matheus Cunha
- Thread starter Zoo
- Start date
A young forward who presses? I'll take it. Atleti are definitely exploiting us with that fee, but I don't really care at this point.
For a group of fans who are desperate for transfers we sure do get a lot of people moaning about pretty much every player we're linked with.
Only played about 1000 minutes and got six goals and seven assists.
I like that he can play in a few different positions. I like his age. I dont like his goalscoring instincts/record but who knows. Its the right "type" of transfer at least instead of washed up 33 year olds looking for a final payday. As Ragnick said - sign 2nd contract players. Not 3rd/4th contract players.
Never heard of him.
Well... Ha Cunha Matata

Doesnt seem you are impressed at all
I can tell you haven't heard many jokes before, lighten up sheesh.
Linked to a different striker every day! It's almost like we're just trying to make it look like we're trying.
Dunno who this lad is but that goal he scored was great. Doubt we're actually signing anyone though because I'm all jaded and stuff.

Yes I have heard he is a very very reliable itk
Wouldn't it be better to spend the 100 on Osimhen or Lautaro instead?
Actually would be an interesting signing this, for the right price.
Mostly positive in here, isn't it?
Is Correa not an option? Or is this guy better? Correa was really impressive in CL against us. Don't recall seeing much of this guy, only thing I have thought is that they got visibly more dangerous in pre season when they replaced him with Felix, Griezmann etc 
I'm not forming any sort of opinion based on that though.

haven't followed him at Atletico, but he was really good for Hertha IIRC.
In that game? No.
Overall? Looks decent. Remind me of Dembele, the one who played for Tottenham, converted from CF to midfielder. Mobile, energetic. Press resistant. Good hold up play. Hard to dispossess.
50mil still overprice unless my theory about Ronaldo sale to Atletico soon after is true. Book cooking ploy.
Also hate him.
Why would one of Atleti’s starting lineup come here?Is Correa not an option? Or is this guy better? Correa was really impressive in CL against us. Don't recall seeing much of this guy, only thing I have thought is that they got visibly more dangerous in pre season when they replaced him with Felix, Griezmann etc
Yep exactly. Bit like Felix who gets mocked here for only scoring 9 goals last season. I’d take him in a heartbeat.
He missed about 6 weeks of last season with a knee injury, so he wasn't available for the whole time.
Wow actually pretty impressive if you equate those minutes to about 11 full games. How come he hasn't played more?
Would make more sense if his name was matata
A striker under 30? I’ll take it.
I've watched Atletico a decent amount but I can't ever recall seeing him play. Usually two of Felix, Griezzman and Suarez (now Morata) start ahead of him.
Is he the brazilian Dirk Kuyt?
We all laughed when we signed Fred for 50m but the joke isn't funny anymore.

How on earth do United approach clubs for players and not get price gouged.
I'm asking all the people moaning about the fee......please explain how you, a United representative would go about this....?

We needed to sort our midfield more than the attack, paying 50m for this guy is neglecting our most pressing area yet again. this 50m could have secured a good Midfielder or even help with the Antony deal.
If true it means we're now Spending the Midfield budget here, This is a Classic case of the rich making poor descions.

How tf was I to know that was a joke? Also how does a Welshman end up in Bubbabama?
Would make more sense if his name was matata
What do you mean? There’s no player called Matata, that doesn’t make any sense.
Like buying a Rolex when your roof is leaking.
Ander Herrera transfer. dodgy men with briefcases?
I thought Eh Cunha Morata made more sense :-)
Exactly. Everyone moans we overpay yet no one actually says how they would approach clubs and get those fees down.
