If we aren't signing a WC CF, give Broja a proper chance. agreed we clearly are not going to drop £85m (or more, it is the poison dwarf after all, and his release clause for £85m does not, I think, kick in until 2023) on Osimhen this summer perhaps we take a stab at Danjuma (if we dump some wingers and Werner), who is a winger but now plays more at CF Lautaro Martínez is never going to happen this summer (he is viable in terms of quality though) after that, the pickings are so slim this summer (and next summer as well, barring some big breakthrough, see my two picks, Noah Okafor and Evanilson, below for that), for viable CF's. The board really is picked clean for CF's barring the 3 above, it is just amazing (unless you count Nkunku next season as a CF as well, which I do not) Gianluca Scamacca is now off the board as well (West Ham) all the rest are off the board or not viable or just big gambles: the best 5 of the gambles, but still, absolute dice rolls Jonathan David (not sold on him, and he is more of an SS atm anyway) huge gamble Amine Gouiri wild gamble Patrik Schick real gamble and very expensive now potentially these next 2 MAY end up being really good CF's, but not at all sure atm Evanilson wild gamble Noah Okafor wild gamble finally: Youssoufa Moukoko wild WILD WILD gamble (bad attitude and his play has regressed) and is too young for the summer window, would have to be in January, after he turns 18 (thanks Brexit) LAM09 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't want him at all. on edit removed one of the lawsuits, as it was for Inter and he will be insanely expensive AC Milan is not going to part with their Scudetto-winning weapon (and the reigning Serie A player of the year by every major vote) for cheap I still want THEO off that team and into SB, dammit and there is this now too (AC Milan looks a hot mess) AC Milan’s former owner Yonghong Li has gone to court to try and seize €364m after filing a lawsuit against Elliott Management over the sale of AC Milan, a report claims. According to what is being reported by Il Sole 24 Ore (via SempreMilan.it), the former Rossoneri president Yonghong Li allegedly requested the seizure of €364m from Elliott in Luxembourg.

Pizy 18,928 Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Even though our club have briefed that it’s not happening, in the back of my head I still wouldn’t totally rule out CR7 coming in. The longer he refuses to show up at United preseason the more I think it’s still possible. Stats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duppy Conqueror 1,539 Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 2 hours ago, Kong said: Havertz bit that worrys me I think he’s fine as a false 9 link up and decent enough finisher. Tuchel overplayed him because of the lack of alternatives,Broja offers him a good alternative and someone to put up a better fight,give Kai enough a rest when needed etc.much more fluid front 3 with Havertz and Broja. I’m not looking at the CF has to be the main scorer,just a centerpoint to score and just as importantly bring others into play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Milan were willing to part with him for a reasonable fee, Leao would be in that bracket. Talk of Neymar/Ronaldo had better not reappear in the next few weeks either. The one wildcard is Saint-Maximin; he offers something we don't have with his unpredictability, but do we really need another player with little end product, or could he magically come good in that depart?

Pizy 18,928 Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Our supporters have been talking so much shit and rubbing it in Barca’s face so gleefully that if we lose out on Koundé now it’ll be so cringe. 🤣🤣🤣 Apparently Barca haven’t 100% given up, the annoying bastards.
