Some tentative links for us to this forward today. Good backup option alongside Ronaldo whilst we invest in other areas and then go for a main striker next summer perhaps when Ronaldo leaves?

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

Why back up? He is groomable. In the right hands I bet he becomes an unplayable weapon
Good feet for a big man, left footed as well, always looks nicer.
Never heard of him. Would he be an alternative to Nunez?
So it's on then? Playable weapons out?!
Very different styles, so if we actually want Nunez, I doubt it very much.
6 goals in the Bundesliga with the levy applied is like negative 3 goals for the season
Thanks
He's only played 13 games tbf and it does still somehow make him their top scorer
Seems to love a big injury though

Would be a perfect plan B for our attack. Not the goal scorer we need, but an alternative we need. With his 2 m and technique, he would be our Crouch. I would prefer Salzburgs Benjamin Sesko for this role, younger, faster... but not the experience.
Well usually the players who hit double figures there come to the PL and flop so maybe it will work the other way round.
He is very good, this season he was plagued by injuries but still played a big part in the end to save Stuttgart from relegation. In a better team I would expect him to score 15-20 goals a season. Already Austrias No.1 striker as well.
Brings back memories of Fellaini.
Heh
With Ragnick you going to see the same kind of players he would sign for red bull clubs
God no. Not a good enough footballer by quite a margin in my opinion.
Has an eye for goal but he is a bit soft and weak.
Fond memories?
Looks like a second row in rugby he is so tall.
im surprised at how technical he is for such a tall player.
His headers are almost like basketball shots the way they loop in.
i wonder if he is a bit like Peter Crouch though.

I think someone has inflated is wiki stats.
I would like to think we are looking at higher quality players
Same as Sosa. Don't sign Stuttgart players ffs
Is it just me or on Wiki he's already our player wearing the number 9 shirt 
This one and the Sosa guy seem like lazy journalism. Some tenuous links to Ragnick via the Bundesliga and/or Austria and here we are.
Give me 2 mins and I’ll be our new number 9 on Wiki.Is it just me or on Wiki he's already our player wearing the number 9 shirt
I don't like us signing players I can't spell on my keyboard.
I think it's even more tenuous than that. He was talked about in the Ornstein article in the Athletic as Benfica's Nunez replacement if we signed him. It sounds like somebody's just cut out the middleman.
David Ornstein said:
Yeah, we’re still suffering from signing Kimmich.
Who you didn't sign from Stuttgart
?He was a Stuttgart player on loan at Leipzig. We signed him from Stuttgart.
Yeah I know, but you signed him (rightly) for what he's shown for Leipzig.
Either way, Stuttgart had some decent players through the years, but Kimmich aside I wouldn't want them at United
Someone like Rüdiger would probably be your best defender.
I simply would not put much weight on the players club. The player can either help you or not. That should be the only criteria, really.
Not the striker we wanted but the striker we deserve.
So he'll be playing for Rangnick...
If Bayern and Dortmund are sniffing around him he must be half decent. I would prefer a cheap rotation player who's happy to sit on the bench as opposed to spunking 70mil on Nunez. It's the midfield that we need to spend big on for now.
Rangnick is not going to get anywhere near the amount of say you'd think.
