Gutted if it’s Lukaku, £100m for 2-3 years.

I really don't understand why people keep on saying or implying that things will be fine as long as we get that one clinical fisher. Sure, it will help but if the others aren't scoring enough, then we won't get anywhere, certainly not in the league. Literally everyone bar Abraham last season underperformed their xG last season. Never mind the other teams, whenever we were successful in the past, it was because we had a number of players (at least 3-4) contributing a good number of goals. If we want to do something useful next season, we're gonna need those players to at least match their xG or outperform it. 

Well, if the Arsenal friendly game was any indicator, we are well on course to repeat.

The number of glaring misses from great positions was all too familiar from last season. We could've drawn the game too, because of our wastefulness.

Another good way to score more goals and most logical is to play players who are more likely to score. 

Werner/Mount last season played over 8000mins combined and scored 17 non penalty goals. 

Havertz/Ziyech for example less than 4500mins and scored 15 goals.  

Difference in minutes played is around 3600mins which is exactly 40 games. 

So if these players continue their ineffectiveness in front of the goal and TT keeps playing them over others he is basically saying: I don't want to score more goals.

We need to hope that Lukaku will change his  mind and try to push for the transfer...

This is starting to get really cringey.

Can't believe we're actually flexing our financial muscle over Lukaku of all players..

I would rather not sign a new forward than have Lukaku.

Lukaku would want to start every game. He's not going to be a squad option. 

And I can't see how he would fit in this team for every game.

It would be completely nuts if we’re willing to go over 100m for Lukaku but not for Haaland unless the latter has made it clear he doesn’t fancy a move now and wants to assess his many options next summer.

Bidding £130m for Lukaku(28y) when you can get Haaland(21y) for £150m is a massive nonsense .

Stay strong Inter!

[Special Juan 28,096]

Murders on in here...fetch Lukaku back asap.

Martinez might help since he doesn't want to renew, they would want to sell him first before Lukaku.

Think it's clear that the club want an out-and-out #9 and not another second ST.
