Deadline day

18 months is fine when you consider Greenwood’s in the squad. Fulham aren’t going to sell Mitrovic in January when they are pushing for promotion.

King is decent but is essentially a poor man's Rashford/Martial. Would be pointless in the long term.

A plan b would be far more useful.

But we don’t need long term, we need short term options because we have no forwards.

I know. I wouldn't be completely against it for that reason but I'd still prefer us to land a proper CF if we can.

Sadly it doesn’t look like that’s going to be the case. The club are run by amateurs.

United wanted King on loan but did also discuss a permanent move for the Norway international.

However, there was no agreement over a fee and barring a dramatic late twist, King will remain at the Vitality Stadium.

United are continuing to look at alternatives, with former Watford man Odion Ighalo one of the players on their radar."

Sod it, give it greenwood till end of season.

Spend 30days on one signing then a mad dash to get another one in 24hours, ffs the club hierarchy are a shambles

Greenwood is ready and must get himself fully invested

Ighalo would be good.
