January 2020 transfer thread

I obviously know Kane is injured but Milan won’t sell Piatek with a loan with an option to buy, they want outright sale or obligation.

if we invest 20-30m on a striker we need a view for the future how the player fits and Piatek next to Kane imo is a disaster imo. I’ve watched a lot of Piatek.

I get you, but we have to get over this ‘Kane and nothing else’ attitude. A back up striker is imperative. If he’s doing well he’ll get plenty of games if he’s doing so well that he’s undroppable then he’ll play with Kane in a two or Kane as a 10 whatever it is, we must bring him in

Not sure his position is high up on the list of needs when I look at our squad though. surely a CB, LB, RB & DM take priority over a Bruno Fernandes type of player right?

Oh yeah, without a doubt we need to shore up our flanks with decent fullbacks(Sess and Tanganga will do the job I hope).. but Bruno is absolutely class! He walks straight into the side.. taking Eriksens spot. Meaning Dele or Moura dropped.

One of the things I won't miss about Eriksen is THE AMOUNT OF FUCKING TIMES HIS NAME IS SPELT INCORRECTLY ON HERE.

We're gonna have a disaster with Bergwijn.

NELSEN?

Berge to Man U???

Fabrizio's 'here we go' gave me a raging stiffy

im not saying we don’t need a partner for Kane, I just think Piatek wouldn’t be a great partner for him. Whereas Willian Jose has a much different skill set to Kane and would offer something much different. I think we absolutely need a good striker next to Kane, it’s a must to help this team get to another level.

Jose loves a big physical striker and Piatek isn’t that, whereas Willian Jose is. Obviously I’ll be happy with either Piatek or Jose right now because we’re desperate but I prefer Jose.

Interesting, I know nothing about José but have seen Piatek a few times and he looks a decent goal scorer. Admittedly I’m only thinking short term till the end of the season in the immediate Kane absence.

But Erisken was a no win, if levy sold him with 18 months left on his contract then it would be “ why are we a selling club” “selling him under pochs feet” “profit before glory” etc I guess though the deciding factor is whether this extra £20 million goes towards Jose’s transfer fund , any how regardless of the cash I’m glad he is gone, as I don’t think it was good for player morale him being there running down his contract

I think you will find many are treating it as a win. So this dispels your 'no win' notion

Hey Henschspur you think you know my own language better than me?

[Swoos]

Berge isn’t at United. Someone thought they say him but wasn’t him lmao

I'd guess that Berge is at Man United's training ground for a medical. It's all over Twatter...

Turns out it was a youth keeper who isn't old enough to drive.
Easy mistake to make

 

[scott]

Neatly forgetting that there were ZERO offers for him in the summer .... small point but quite relevant don't you think?

We were talking about before that. A year left on the contract is not an ideal time to sell. Anyway, you are as pro levy as they come. So I feel you are very biased & would spin things to suit your levy love. So let's not waste each other's time trying to change each other's mind. I am with Todd on this one, you are not going to change my mind. & I won't change yours either.
