Crikey you are still deluded thinking that Levy was selling Kane to United. I don't mind the booting of ETH but don't back failures up with statements that were never happening.Don't tell me that for our supply line we need new players? We have perfectly good enough players to play efficient and attacking football. It is on manager. If our manager can't create good general play with this group of players then we must replace him with one who can.
So, yes. I would spend complete budget next year on Osimhen. Just as i wanted that for Kane last summer.
To be clear here; Kane is the one who got away. I do agree with you that Osimhen has issues in general play but ....my God, another year without having a proper striker will kill me.
Victor Osimhen

Honestly I'd rather Toney. He seems like a bit of a crock, so perfect for Boehly's Chelsea revolution.
No point going in debate about that again (and again). Yes, i think that for right amount of money Kane was available. You (and some people) don't think that. Fair enough. We will never know.
Any of those two would be perfect. Toney is a beast too.
Hojlund will come goodDon't tell me that for our supply line we need new players? We have perfectly good enough players to play efficient and attacking football. It is on manager. If our manager can't create good general play with this group of players then we must replace him with one who can.

Was awesome for Nigeria today
Led the line awesomely
Today is the day I joined the Vicot Osimehin fan club
He is a top top player.

By all respect Osimhen is different class than Toney. I would spend 100m+ on him without hesitation. While for Toney I wouldn't go higher than 45m, hence why we shouldn't sign him.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs should be battling it out for him.
Toney to be the consolation price for one of them.

He’s got to be 100% going to a CL club. I don’t know why Chelsea are being mentioned.
I think he's going to Chelsea, which is bonkers really, they're in worse shape than us. He deserves to be playing for a CL club, which sadly rules us out.
Maybe he'll join Spurs? 
As you said; he will come good. And that is it. I don't see Hojlund becoming game changing striker who is scoring goals week after week (i hope that i am wrong). Good is ok for a team whos goal is EL spot. Or being backup striker for biggest teams.
Look, i know that i have a "problem" with high standards regarding United players (for which i got this tag from Moses
) but nevertheless, striker position is position where you go for the best that you can buy. IHaving said that i am aware that we will stick with Hojlund and buy some cheap backup striker. Osimhen train left when we spent 70 mil on Hojlund.
Aren't they very different profile players? Wouldn't be like for like presumably? I know very little about Osimhen, just from what I've read.
What about Rashford?
Yeah, Osimhen is a very typical centre forward. However, Ramos doesn't look like he's setting the world alight for them at all, so they might just have Osimhen up top with two of Asensio/Dembele/Barcola/Lee out wide and Kolo Muani as backup.
Ah ok, makes sense, thanks!
First job of an agent, link your client with United. Mikel knows his stuff.
Don't think we can afford another injury prone player.
I doubt it. Replacement for Partey and a right winger to rotate/compete with Saka are higher priority than a striker.
I could see him going to Chelsea tbf with Lukaku as part of the deal.
80m euros is £68m and Lukaku is valued at what, around £35m? Osimhen appears to have a bit of a down year after his monstrous season last season but a package worth around £100m feels like the best deal we can get out of Napoli.
Oh my god, Chelsea still have Lukaku on contract.
Napoli would literally accept a lower fee to exclude Lukaku from any deal
Im not saying Lukaku is as good as him, but he’s got more goals this year than Osimhen.
Id love Osimhen here but we’ve other priorities to fix before splashing most our budget on a striker.
Not if its true Conte is their next coach. He loves Lukaku.
Oh my god, Chelsea still have Lukaku on contract.
Selling him is one of the few pieces of good business the club has done in the past 10 years.
Seriously, who writes this bilge? You can almost imagine Bevis and Butthead sniggering at each other as they cook up another ridiculous rumour.

Romano teasing this morning again that he is leaving this summer for sure & it's not gonna be Chelsea. Would be a dream signing for sure. Someone who could light up the Premier League with ease.
Arsenal were linked a bit ago, seemed either him or Sesko.
Injury prone and with a big reputation but coming off the back of a poor season - sounds exactly like someone United would be interested in. Wait, he's massively expensive and will want obscene wages too - this is the archetypal United signing! Done dealio, I reckon.
PSG as a replacement for Mbappe?
What we paying with? Prawn sandwiches?
