completely forgot he played for them, city legend! we should be trying for more agueros, suarezes, dybalas before they become too expensive. Also would love to see finally United have a pacey, low centre gravity, technical striker for once. I like Lukaku but I think we can certainly upgrade or at least make Lukaku some competition andadd some diversity to our attack. Sanchez is better off as an advanced playmaker, he lost his pace and explosivness past few years..

The money isnt the issue it was the lack of active recruiting and scouting in Fergies later years.

Isn't Perisic a left winger?

Yes, and Mourinho doesn’t currently have one. Sanchez, Rashford and Martial are inadequate at actually getting to the line and crossing. Perisic would be an upgrade.

Absolute. Non sense unless Jose wanna ship Rashford away too

If Rashford has a brain he’ll spend preseason developing as a right winger; he’s not special on the left, just either runs it out of play on the outside or inverts into congestion - at least on the right he’d be able to cross naturally.

Sanchez clearly wants to play in the left. We'd be going in for a RW for sure

Applies equally to Martial i think. Both need to learn to be more flexible especially if we move to a fluid front line

His Dad was a top striker about 20 years ago. If he’s anything like his Dad, then whoever signs him will have a very good player.

Why should it annoy Aguero. They're not going to keep him against his will .

If Aguero is the one to force the move he won’t get his loyalty fee.

I would love it if we get Meunier. He is a United fan and he has a good understanding with Lukaku every time they play on the National Team. He is a really good crosser.

Though not easy to do business with PSG

Why wouldn't PSG fans like it? He is a brilliant RB, having him as a backup is a spoil of riches.

He liked a tweet praising the atmosphere created by Marseille fans at Velodrome ahead of their Europa League quarterfinal match against RB Leipzig back in April. And things went sour between him and PSG fans.
But he posted on Instagram later today about a positive meeting with PSG ultras to resolve the matter. He's not going anywhere.

Like who?
We’re linked with 3 as far as I know (Jorginho, Bailey, de Ligt) but if we got more than 1 of those I’d be surprised.
Lots of title winning teams rest on their laurels and stick with same first XI. They don’t repeat.

Gladbach needs a striker in the worst way. If he goes there, he will play a lot, might even establish himself as the starter. Playing in front of a midfield three of Hazard-Stindl-Raffael would be a pretty tasty spot. Plus that team should come on a lot with full health and compete for a Champions League spot next season.

I would be happy with Savic for Midfield and Willian or Bailey for RW. But we also need 2 attacking full backs.

hilarious he’s actually nothing like his dad though. For one he’s tall! Got his work rate though. Changed the game when he came on against England, won me some money.

Used to love watching Enrico Chiesa, although he could never really establish himself in the Italy side. He got a lot of goals for Parma though, some really good ones too.
