Looked bang average for United when he got to play, if anything he's backup surely. When he is fit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could get him for a really cheap deal it wouldn't be the worst thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 We would be insane to go after PL players now that the clubs know we are sat on at least £100m. Only ones we should consider are those with 1 year left on their contact. Southampton will want £50m for Ward-Prowse and we know that Chelsea want £30m-£40m for Abraham. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea fans I speak to say he disappears too much in games... hard pass. We’ve literally watched him live week in week out. We’ve also watched him for 2 seasons for Chelsea as literally all the games have been on tv. Those Chelsea fans are chatting rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan Bamba, Renato Sanches, Jonathan David all Lille… Romain Faivre LW - stade Brest… Arnaud Kalimuendo ST PSG. Hamed Junior Traorè AM US Sassuolo. Daichi Kamada AM Frankfurt. Christoph Baumgartner AM Hoffenheim. Thiago Almada AM/WF. Pedro Gonçalves AM Sporting. Hopefully our scouts are doing their homework because there's some good talent there. Sabitzer is still available too with just a year left on his contract. Looked lively for Austria when I've seen him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think we should be looking at the European market where clubs are struggling more financially. The downside of that is that it may take longer for players to settle in which might give us a slow start. But in the longer term, it might be for the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Oh gosh tuanzebe again. Whoopie. Cantwell, wow amazing. Lose one of the best players in the league and replace him with junk. Upper mid table is where we're going to stay with dross like that. If that's the aim fine. But don't feed us crap about Europe etc and bring in these players. We should be going all out for Kamada. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally different to spunking 50 million on a player that will have close to zero residual value at the end of his contract. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
