It's a bit naive to suggest that the striker we put up top wouldn't change the way we build up in the final third. If we had a massive bustard like Lukaku up there you can guarantee we'd be putting in far more crosses, if Kane was still here you would see interchange between him and Maddison.Again, how would a new striker change the fact that Richie has taken only 4 of our 57 shots on target?
Have you watched Diaby or are you speaking from blind loyalty to Kulusevski?
We don't know that. We're in a very competitive league. Newcastle look very good, as do Villa. Liverpool are still a top 4 contender. City and Arse go without saying. United and Chavs are shit but they may still come good.Eventually. For this season without Europe we can get by being short in the odd position.
I literally guarantee it. I have seen him play full matches and Orban is nowhere near Haaland.You couldn't possibly know that lol. We have no idea how well he might take to the PL, people said Haaland would flop when he got a move to a big 5 league and yet he's been banging them in at the same rate ever since he left Salzburg.
Yeah, and this season Kulusevski does not look world class, meanwhile Diaby is sharp, mobile, and constantly getting into dangerous areas.I have.
I rate Diaby. It's his first season in the prem. Kulu looked world class after his first half a season.
As backup to Micky?So we're that desperate for transfer news that we're discussing whether the scum that is Mason Greenwood is worth a punt?
I'd be happier with links to Alex Greenwood.

Never said he was, simply stating a fact, you can't write him off before he's kicked a ball in this country mate.I literally guarantee it. I have seen him play full matches and Orban is nowhere near Haaland.
Who is?I literally guarantee it. I have seen him play full matches and Orban is nowhere near Haaland.
Nah, it was an option and we didn't even trigger it, we just negotiated with Juve.
I think Kulusevski was a loan with an obligation to buy - the obligation being triggered when we got CL 6 months into his loan.
So if we had sold Harry on June 5th, you'd be ok, but because we sold him August 11th you're not ok? Even though, from the off, Ange was planning for the season without Kane?We should be thankful that they brought in 3 players we needed?
Only a moron wouldn’t buy GK, CB or midfielder after last season. But that’s still not good enough, that would be good enough maybe if Kane stayed. But if you sel your best player and don’t bring in anyone after that, that’s total incompetence.
As prev stated it was an obligation to buy if conditions were met, and they were.Nah, it was an option and we didn't even trigger it, we just negotiated with Juve.

his movement is better because its better.His movement is better because he plays a different position?
If you think Gil looks lost positionally, that's laughable. Even Conte praised his football IQ and understanding of where he needs to be and when he needs to be there.
Pace and opportunity are the only things Johnson has over Gil.
They were not met, we did not qualify for the CL last season.As prev stated it was an obligation to buy if conditions were met, and they were.
