We need another forward this January

"We aren't desperate. If the right player is there for us, and will fit, we can buy.

"If loans are possible, it might be possible but I have players here chomping at the bit."

 

[freeurmind]

We won't get one.

 

[Godfather]

Get Cavani in and Mertens. Stay as far away from Giroud as possible.

 

[Godfather]

"We aren't desperate. If the right player is there for us, and will fit, we can buy.

"If loans are possible, it might be possible but I have players here chomping at the bit."

Just as I called it pre game. PLEASE BELIEVE US WE REALLY REALLY REALLY DO HAVE THE FUNDS!

like clockwork.

 

[golden_blunder]

Said it elsewhere but Cavani would be a perfect fix imo.

Yup
Even bringing Ibra back on a short deal would have been smart
We now desperately need a striker and at least 1 midfielder

 

[golden_blunder]

OGS on 5 live just said they'll be looking at loans or short term deals for new striker so think Giroud will massively come into your consideration with him available from Chelsea.

Eugh

 

[PieCrust]

So many people only realizing this now? Martial is trash, will never live up to his potential. To think he could ever lead the line at a club like United is based on what exactly? Ridiculous.
ft.

Greenwood is one for the future, but the club has desperately needed a true CF since Ibra got injured.

 

[Red Indian Chief Torn Rubber]

Woodward won't sign anybody

 

[Zoo]

Cavani would be the dream. Piatek or Milik may do.

 

[VP89]

Just get Cavani in. fecksake it's an obvious transfer.

 

[Xaviboy]

What about the AC Milan forward? He is available

 

[Kostur]

Signing another forward would only upset Martial, stifle Greenwood, annoy James, vex Rashford, wind up Lingard, ruffle Mata's feathers, piss on Fred's chips, disgruntle Shaw and put a hitch in McTominay's giddy up. It would be both negligent and insane for us to sign players when we already have players. The Haaland thread taught me this.

Also this.

 

[theklr]

Piatek all the way. He is not too expensive.

 

[Art Vandelay]

Piatek all the way. He is not too expensive.

Makes too much sense. Just keep playing James and Martial until one of them breaks and we finish 8th.

 

[Nou_Camp99]

We won't get Cavani. Would love it if we could get him on loan or for a cut price deal but I don't think he'd come personally.

We need a forward this window though or we may as well just think about next season. Forward and a midfielder, even if they are loan deals, or season is in tatters.

Well done Woodward and co. Fantastic planning as usual.

 

[dwd]

Giroud? Yeah right.

 

[ReallyUSA]

Remember posters being against signing Halaand.

We were wrong.

 

[The_Midfielder]

Fortunately the window is still open, but we will elevate Greenwood and see what we get as there is no value in the market

 

[ReallyUSA]

pay 70m and get Werner.... He can cover on the wings too

No way that's happening. He's actually in a position to win something this year.

 

[Svartzonker]

All you who suggest Piatek now have you actually seen him play? As a 24 yo being replaced by a nearly 40 yo is a bit worrying to say the least.

He had a good couple of seasons before that, but still worrying. AC Milan is a bigger mess than us tbf.

It’s closed for United already , it’s less than two weeks to go

 

[IrishRedDevil]

Recall Sanchez?

Exactly! So he is one of the few players who actually can benefit of coming to a more well-functioning side.

 

[C'est Moi Cantona]

We needed one in the summer, now we need two, but I'll happily bet that we won't sign a true striker this January.

 

[bucky]

Myron Boadu for me still. One for the future and should be available.

 

[charlenefan]

Said it elsewhere but Cavani would be a perfect fix imo.

Was my thought as well, get on the phone to PSG and see if they'll let him leave early

 

[golden_blunder]

Is there any danger we could recall Alexis Sanchez?

 

[Maluco]

Bring in Cavani and recall Sanchez. Sanchez should only ever be used as a number 9 now, but we are paying his wages so we might as well use him!

Cavani would be a lift with his quality and workrate. They would be enough to stay competitive in the Europa.

 

[golden_blunder]

Given the clampdown in China, arnatovic anyone?

 

[Roboc7]

I doubt Cavani wants to write off last few years of his career by coming here and we’re clearing trimming wage bill so chances of us signing him are zero.

 

[The Urban Goose]

At this point even Jarrod Bowen would do. Just get somebody.

I'd take Jim Bowen at this stage.

Time for Judward to earn their keep.

 

[Art Vandelay]

Given the clampdown in China, arnatovic anyone?

Interesting shout. Carrasco might be a better option if we are raiding China.

I've seen him a fair bit. His form this season is very worrying, but he would at least be an option to allow us to at least sub players and if he even found half of his old form it would be a huge boost. He's lethal when on form.

 

[RedIan]

Guiseppe Rossi is a free agent and back training with united? I wonder if Ole will give him a short term contract.

 

[Godfather]

Given the clampdown in China, arnatovic anyone?

That train has passed I fear. Would have taken him before he went there mind.

 

[Godfather]

God please no. That guy was never good.

 

[Red00012]

Cavani please

 

[McGrathsipan]

Like it or not Woodward needs to spend big money or we can forget this season being anything other than another write off, test Dortmund with £100 million for Sancho and keep pushing as I think they’d sell in January if the offer is right and I think if told he’d be one of our main players Sancho would come.

The season is already a write off.

 

[Sayros]

Ben Yedder, drop some cold hard cash at Monaco.

Seriously though, Ed or whoever deals with these transfers need to catch a wake up.
