I’d love Cavani with Dybala just off him
Cavani and Dybala? Have you learned nothing from the last 6 years?
We really need to sell a ”project” to some players this Summer, will need some ridiculous salesmanship.
He’s absoubtly the one I’d go for. He’s not going to restrict the development of Rashford or Geeenwood. He probably has a few less miles on the clock compared to other older strikers as he started later, he’s retired from international football, actually has some guts, determination and pace. He knows how to finish!Vardy is such an obvious one that I'm surprised it isn't reported more in the media. He'd be a useful player to have in the squad
Vardy is a great shout actually - he would be a fantastic addition to your squad. Not exactly a long term option though.He’s absoubtly the one I’d go for.

I think he would be available for around £25m and give us two good years. He’s an improvement on Lukuku, has a great record against the big teams, and is the sort of character we need. Gives our younger strikers time to develop. I don’t see any downside to him.
frankly, not sure we can afford to look long term. get someone like vardy in to get enough goals to sneak us into top four and go from there. Something about Vardy makes me hate him.. but he'll score goalsVardy is a great shout actually - he would be a fantastic addition to your squad. Not exactly a long term option though.
Not mobile enough for my liking...Ciro Immobile would be the perfect striker. His movement, finishing and hold up play is prime. Very good with his feet
IcardiI’d quite like an out and out finisher, in the Ruud mould. Not many of those about these days though.
The closest is Kane obviously but he’d cost a fortune.
God help us if Rashford is to be our number 9.Rashford trying to make so many runs in behind and play like a Vardy or Aubameyang type the last month or so makes me think that's where Ole sees him and so we won't buy a 9. If Ole thought he was a winger, then yeah, but he doesn't seem to, so I think us buying a winger or 10 or both is likelier.
Agree. He's definitely worth asking about.He’s absoubtly the one I’d go for. He’s not going to restrict the development of Rashford or Geeenwood.

PD isn't a striker, he's an attacking midThe guy at Ajax whose name I can never remember! Can't make my mind up about Dybala, but doubt he would come now
To be fair - I could see him being effective in that role - your problem is that you don't have a striker for him to play off - Lukaku you would think should be able to do it but he doesn't seem to have the ability to hold the ball up and make those passes into space for the likes of Rashford to run onto. If Lukaku can develop that part of his game (which is possible) then that could be worth pursuing.Rashford trying to make so many runs in behind and play like a Vardy or Aubameyang type the last month or so makes me think that's where Ole sees him and so we won't buy a 9.

Good luck buying Son this summer.If OGS settles on playing 433 next season, you need a player who can play as inside forward on the right, and also provide competition or act as backup to Rashford as #9. Son Heung Min is an obvious choice.
Martial - Rashford - Son as front 3 is not a bad option.
oh he is contracted to 2023. You are right then.Good luck buying Son this summer.
I think we're in a post-Lukaku world here considering what Ole seemed to think of him, and if he stays around I expect it to be as Rashford's backup and fighting with Martial for a spot when we play a front 2.To be fair - I could see him being effective in that role - your problem is that you don't have a striker for him to play off - Lukaku you would think should be able to do it but he doesn't seem to have the ability to hold the ball up and make those passes into space for the likes of Rashford to run onto.

Paulo Bruno Exequiel Dybala (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈpaulo ðiˈβala];[A] born 15 November 1993) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for Italian club Juventus and the Argentina national teamPD isn't a striker, he's an attacking mid
I agree except for the Martial and Rashford bit!If OGS settles on playing 433 next season, you need a player who can play as inside forward on the right, and also provide competition or act as backup to Rashford as #9. Son Heung Min is an obvious choice.

Son is a no brainer, which is why we won’t sign him.Son would be great for our team! He carried Tottenham when Kane was out
Agree.Vardy is not better than Lukaku.
