How can one of the biggest clubs in the world not identify a player who is 23-25 and on the upward trajectory of their career? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree but this late in the window and when the alternatives are apparently Icardi and Morata for a season I think he would probably 'do a job'. Not ideal but better than the 2 mentioned and Martial. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one I'm coming up with is Lautaro Martínez. Nkunku is not realistic imo Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nkunku is not realistic imo It’s quite a tough one really because like you say about Nkunku, a lot of players aren’t realistic because of the mess Man Utd are in, so I don’t think they could get a big impressive name, but I actually think that’s a strategy they need to move away from anyway. I know he’s not got the best record at Nice but I think Dolberg is a really good overall player. Think he’s one of those guys who would do well leading the line in England even if he did only score every 1 in 3. Luis Suarez who went to Marseille could have been a shout, and even though he’s a bit older Millik would be an upgrade on what they have (outwith Ronaldo who’s disinterested anyway). Also think Ivan Toney would do really well in a better team than Brentford as well, but he would cost a fortune because of where he plays so i’m not sure he would be value for money. There’s definitely been options there for them, but there’s so many problems at the club I’m not even surprised they aren’t spotting them.

Prso's headband 35,309 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I can’t see Utd doing anything of note for almost another decade tbh. Mourinho worked wonders with that rubbish. Signed some of them right enough but it’s clear players are a serious issue SteveEarle and plymouthranger 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers_no1 32,355 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Why would Real sell Casemiro? Why would he want to go there? Clearly this is a planted story to appease the fans and lie that they're genuinely trying to get better players after the backlash. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
