Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Not a fan of Lautaro. He is exactly what we do not need. Not too fast, small, weak, does not play the game at a high enough tempo. Honestly I'd rather have Lukaku than Lautaro if we sign someone from Inter. I can absolutely see him being a massive bust in CL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finishing 2nd amid a pandemic and congested season? He's still tactically inept in Europe and bottles virtually every cup he's in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get in Sancho, Lacroix, a DM and Hakimi if we mut and be done with it. I don't mind insisting with Kai as false 9. If we have Sancho we will not even need to play with Werner all the time.

The club must hurry and decide because it's a matter of days before United get Sancho at this rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

United just had a bid rejected for not meeting their asking price. Wouldn’t say its as its a matter of days yet. Plus I would say its safe to say we aren’t that particularly interested in Sancho or we would also be in talks for him, would you not say?

If what Matt said is true, we want to make sure we tried everything in our powers to get a world class striker if not we might use the money to improve in other positions, this is where Sancho was mentioned as an alternative, with Ziyech rumours about him leaving, it does make sense but it looks like were fucking around not knowing what to do with Haaland's price. As for United, they always lowball and end up paying exactly what other teams wants, I've no doubt the deal is very close but if we open discussions maybe we still have a chance to convince Sancho.

Pizy 18,952 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I was all in for Lukaku a week or two ago before we were linked with Haaland. But if Haaland is impossible this summer I wouldn’t want us to settle for any other striker. It’ll likely be much, MUCH more difficult if not impossible to get Haaland next summer when every big club in Europe can afford him but I guess we should gamble. If no Haaland this summer, strengthen the team as much as possible in other areas and hope like hell Werner, Havertz, Pulisic, and Ziyech step up. Don’t shackle ourselves to a lesser striker and then see Haaland move to a rival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think trying to get a CF in - regardless of who it is/was going to be ie Haaland, Lukaku, Kane etc - was always going to take longer than the one day the transfer markets officially been open for though so to say “it looks like we are fucking around” already regarding a price is extremely premature. If we don’t get a CF, aye you’d think we would strengthen other areas but I can’t see attacking midfielders/wingers being extremely high up that list or Ziyech being sold after only a season either. Right wingback, centre back and central midfield are more interesting and areas which we could do with something else in be it depth/competition or improvements.
