It looks like WHU have not met price tag for Zouma 😕 And Sevilla just said, 80mln clause or nothing. Hard days incoming.

Haaland dream gone.

 I actually thought we’d have got him at one point  like Werner and Havertz.

So next summer he will go to United , Real or Bayern to replace Cavani/Benzema or Lewandowski .

IF lukaku flop again will be very funny .

The real sad thing about this, is that we can almost guarantee in 12-24 months we are going to be wanting a better striker.

It really won't be funny.. it will be devastating, especially if Halaand ends up at United.

I feel that Haaland will end up at PSG to replace Mbappe.

Better off just going to Bayern then.

With Raiola as an agent, he is only staying three years wherever he goes.

we will be the last ones foolish enough to pay those two clowns. If lukaku comes here he will most likely ride out that fat contract after he seizes to be useful in 2023.

This feels a lot like the torres deal minus the injury. desperate, pushing for the title , overpaying for a late deal for a pl-proven goalscorer just after his peak. absolute madness to tie so much assets to one okish player.

i would have been 100% fine with no major signings but no money wasted on duds. yet, we are gonna make 2 of the biggest signings this club has ever made for players that do not fit us and are not good enough for the money offered. the deals will cripple the clubs financially for years right after we just made it out of the aftermath of the criminal 2017 window.

I just feel that PSG will go all out for him to cover losing Mbappe.

Haaland as well may look at PSG as an attractive proposition to go and score a boat load of goals for another 3 years or so before his next move.

Lukaku last season scored less goals then Werner the year before he joined us.

Lukaku last season in the PL scored less goals than Havertz the year before he joined us.

Lukaku is a different animal to the one that played at United and you know it... so I can't see how making that comparison is valid. Also, you really think Lukaku won't score goals in our current set up?? Comon... don't don't ignorant Tomo... I fully understand the frustration of paying the huge amounts of money quoted for him and would rather have Halaand every day of the week but Lukaku will not be a disaster and if he is... then I would 100% hold my hands up and be just as gutted as everyone else.

I don't know what I find more frustrating, the fact that we're trying to sign Lukaku or that people are suddenly agreeing with me (that we shouldn't sign for the sake of it) purely because we are about to do it.

"Sign someone anyone"

Ok

"No not him"

Haha, tbf...

I'd still like for us to sign someone.

Just that if it's not Haaland this season, then it should be an inexpensive nobody that we can offload, when we go in for Haaland next season

My main frustration is that we are tearing apart a hugely promising system to accommodate him. If we really wanted to go down the rabbit hole of buying a player who we think will guarantee us goals then we should absolutely be going for a wide forward in the Salah/Mane/Jota/Sterling mould.

He has to score atleast 30 until he even begins to justify the compromises to our overall style that's going to be made.

The chances missed aside, the thing with our current setup is that we're able to create lots of chances because the front 3 has got good movement and understanding between them and they are interchangeable and that's without an out-and-out #9. If we put one like Lukaku in, that whole thing is gonna change. We might still create the same amount/type of chances or we might not. 

And it's also worth noting that he's been highly successful at Inter because Conte created a system and style that were based around him. Tuchel hasn't done that with anyone here. Can Lukaku thrive if the system is not built around him?
