I don't know what's more surprising - Ajax actually rejecting such an offer or Utd making a bid of that amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this moment in time, I'd take either if them. I just want to see chances like Havertz had against Spurs, converted. This was the exact same logic that had us bring Lukaku and Higuian through the door.

A blind man could see Lukaku was pure dog shit at Man United. Higuain was never proven in the Prem. How is it the same? Auba scored a hatfull of goals at Arsenal and if I remember rightly, he was being played on the LW most of that time?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same blind men can see a well past prime auba who struggled totally and completely for his last 1.5 year to the point of being sold for free to Barca.

Pizy 18,907 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 At £15m it’s probably decent value. Hard to be that upset if that’s all we end up paying. Then we just have to hope the contract length isn’t too long so we can easily move him on if it doesn’t work out. manpe and bigbluewillie 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,585 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 15 million is good, but don't pay high wages. That is the problem we have here, giving high wages and then can't move on players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should we re look at him? Get him on board. Heard he scored in the 1st minute of something along those lines So bascally what ever he's done or accomplished is meaningless to you. Already decided he's the worst player on the planet. Stats are wrong his accomplishments are wrong in other words your salty AF about us signing him.

Hopefully club have got him to agree to reasonable wages. Haaland and Nunez aside, was there any striker available in the summer who was in their prime and was a proven pick?

You say stop-gaps, but our so called stop gaps seem to demand a lot of playing time, disrupt our playing style and create a toxic dressing room. This is like Lukaku all over. We want chances to be finished while forgetting how those chances are made Edited August 19, 2022 by Blue Armour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s an extreme lack of traditional world class strikers in Europe right now. Even if we had another £100m to spend on one like we did with Lukaku we wouldn’t be getting a sure fire, risk free player. Osimhen is really the only name I can think of that people are hyping up as the next highly sought after #9 that the big clubs will be after.

We have many stop gaps in the past and wages are always the problem. Hard to get rid of them. At least take a change on someone younger like Jonathan David. Or pay the money for someone like Victor Osimhen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osimhen is overhyped a lot imo, what has he done to justify the enormous pricetag? 14 goals in Serie A, his best ever season so far, I expect double figures of a 100m target.
