So reading this thread. Mbuembo is choosing United and Semenyo will be too expensive with his remaining contract with Bournemouth. Who else we thinking about??

It's kind of a mystery what profile we're looking for with Tel's best position in dispute, Frank's preferred tactics flexible, and Son and Richy's future up in the air.

It seems very likely we'll sign another forward, but what sort of forward is hard to discern.

Yeah it’s really scattergun based on reports.

We need a left footed RW so Mbeumo makes some sense but if Kulusevski is moved back to RW then we need a 10.

We also need a replacement for Son if he goes.

If I was guessing, it will be Semenyo to replace Son and a younger player who is either a 10 or left footed RW depending on how Frank wants to use Kulusevski. Also feel like that player will come out of the blue and nobody catches wind of it until it’s done.

If it was me I’d sign n Eze over Semenyo but that release clause needs paying up front and he will ask for 200k pw. We know how that will go

And if we have room for one top-dollar signing (again, we know how we operate), I'd rather target a #6 anyhow.

A Rolls-Royce 6 is going to elevate the level of our forwards more than a dynamic winger is going to elevate the level of our midfield, IMO.

But also, having said all that, just buy Eze for fuck's sake. He's absolutely worth that money, that deal will not do us wrong.

Fcuk me mate, you must have low bar.

Talent-wise and having shown capacity against the top teams, Rashford is better than all our players.

But the weight of disagreement suggests others think different, so even finances allowed, maybe not.

My view notwithstanding is that Rashford still has 2 or 3 years left at the top level. We shall see.
