Would be good to get rid of his wages and 5-10 mil in cash if some turkish club is stupid enough as well..
Sure J. Felix hold up play nad workrate up top to instill the pressing game would be fun to watch, along with inconsistent and overrated attacking play.
Would honestly be horrendous
What's wrong with Taremi? Over 20 goals a season for Porto in each 4 seasons (31 last season), does well in the CL, short term option yes at 31 (just about to turn 31), but a very good all round player to lead the line. Strong defensively, good scorer, strong technique, strong hold up play, very good in the air... taremi is a no brainer for a low cost option as he's a pretty complete CF, with a proven track record of goals to add.
So you claim to know that he is below average and then in the same paragraph make it clear you have no idea what type of player he is. That doesn't really make a lot of sense.
Just curious as to your reasoning here? I think JF is a better player than Hojlund. We'd also be getting two strikers in instead of one - which would certainly be useful. Don't get me wrong, Hojlund would be a great signing, but Atalanta are asking a lot and I'm not sure he's ready to lead the line for us.
He'd be a starter unless we spunk 100m on Kane ...
I think João Felix is immensely talented but he's not at his best as a striker and has been a 1 in 4 goalscorer for the last 4 seasons whilst playing in a league that usually sees strikers score for fun.
How many PKs ?

He's also expensive, even on loan, and has so far only shown himself to be overrated.
It's a shame because if it made sense I would love to have him at United cause he's just a really lovely player to watch. Just doesn't fit anywhere right now.
A lot. He had 6 in the last few games.
Yeah he really doesn't mate. He's quite a unique player... probably needs to join a team that still plays 2 up top so he can play off of someone.
So he's a pressing monster with an unreal hold up play?
I have no idea, clearly neither do you which is why I'm saying it's weird that you'd call someone below average when you've clearly not watched them play much.
Taremi has good stats for sure - but he's 30 and is basically another stopgap striker we'll be looking to replace in a few years. I'd absolutely be happy with us signing Taremi.. but only if he's signed along a young player like Hojlund or Kolo Muani and not alongside...
And they weren't even at Old Trafford today. Really is silly season.
He has good work rate and excellent hold-up play. Not a pressing monster, but it's good enough. He's a very good all-around striker who has a very good record for both club and country, and even in Champions League. He's a bit of a late bloomer, but so was Vardy.
Who to believe.. the agent himself putting up a photo and tagging Old Trafford as the location? Or MEN just because.
Fair enough mate - that makes sense. I think he would be a great addition, not necessarily playing as a 9, but as an option playing anywhere in the attacking positions. I think he would give us options and flexibility. Probably won't happen anyway.
I see what you're saying - I get that. I think I'd still take that over an unproven 20 year old who may or may not be ready to step up to the premier league, scored 8 goals last year and is looking quite expensive. For what it's worth, I think RH would do really well working with ETH, but I think signing him and only him is a risk.
I love watching him play so I wouldn't grumble. Just not sure where he fits in.
My ideal scenario would be a player like RH as well as Taremi, as RH is at least an out and out number 9, that's why I don't want Taremi and Felix, as Felix is not really a number 9. We've got insane numbers in the attacking positions as is, except number 9.
Yeah I would like us to sign both as well
This would make sense. We can't bargain from a position of 'either we sign your player or we have one perma-crocked #9 in our entire squad.' Of course we'll get fleeced if we do that.
