Greenwood does play on the right at the moment and he's really good there but the issue is once one of Rashford - Martial - Greenwood gets injured, the next in line is James/Ighalo/Lingard, which is a massivedrop off in quality :lol:

Add the fact that due to condensed football calendar we're likely to play every 3 days until Christmas other than international breaks, then injuries are inevitable.


James gets a lot of stick from the fan base I've noticed. That drop in quality is indeed terrible.

Sancho deal looks nonexistant and Dembélé doesn't want to come. Busy days for United and Arsenal :lol:

Bielsa is apparently a huge fan of James for whatever reason and the rumour is Leeds offered £25m but Woodward refuses to sell him which is insane :lol:

What makes the transfer window worse from our point of view is our closest rivals have strengthened significantly -all Chelsea, Leicester, Spurs, Arsenal, Everton improved the most lacking areas with Wolves perhaps being the only exception.

True, but in our case if we don't end up getting Partey (Auoar apperantly not happening) we're also fucked. Our midfield isn't going to last a season seeing as we only have Ceballos, Xhaka, Elneny and Willock.

Woodward is a mess, sell James for £25M and that’s 1/4th of Sancho’s quoted fee ffs

Looks like Cavani is signing on a free. In normal times i’d welcome a squad addition like this but who exactly is going to cross the ball to him when hes playing lol

Perhaps he's refusing to sanction the deal as Leeds are one of United's biggest rivals historically but it shouldn't be relevant now :lol:

Nope, Zlatan wasn't on PSG's bench for 2 years from age 31 - 33 and wasn't injury prone.

Looks like a pretty solid pickup to improve an area of need. Chinese Poundland Lukaku isn't cutting it.

~200k w/ no transfer fee is decent business.
Proficient scorer and playmaker. Hopefully he can still ball out a bit.

He's hardly injury prone, he didn't start every game as he had to compete for places with Neymar and Mbappe.

Imagine if Liverpool had someone to bring off the bench or rotate with Firmino other than fucking Origi :lol:

no Origi = no 4-0 vs Barcelona = no CL title

Zlatan and Cavani are both great strickers, but they have 0 CL title

im good with Divock on our bench :P
