Eriksen to United?

I'm watching De Jong in action now. Not flashy but always available and he can pass! Perhaps Barca would take VDB for him? Brennan Johnson having another good game too. May be worth keeping an eye on him..

De Jong has committed plenty of fouls too!

Doubt it.

Why is Frenkie in the Holland B Team anyway?

Why do United keep going after players who are in negotiations with clubs in a better position than them? Are they trying to lure them with crazy wages or something?

Clearly not, otherwise we would have signed them.

Not true which is why you didn't.

We could tell them they beat Madrid to him...

Eriksen is also wrong side of 30 and people acting like it's Kaka in his pomp here. The desperation for some signings is getting too much for some folk. 😂

Did SE85 just favourably compare a South American to a player linked to United?

This probably is not tho post to write it on. But a top quality striker is worth his weight in gold, plus diamonds for eyes.
We won our last title mainly thanks to RVP, who was a, slightly unacknowledged, genius.
I would always push the boat out on the best striker possible if I was a manager.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What strikers are out there though?

There is a real dearth atm of proven goal scorers. 34 year old lewa seems to be only one somewhat available

Failing that you’re having to spend 100m euros on unproven strikers with a touch like lukaku who have had one good season in a second rate League
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Off the top of my head, Nkunku, Ben Yedder, Moussa Dembele, Berardi, Osimhen…

There are available players out there, but if Ronaldo is staying, it doesn’t need to be a 20 goal a season striker this window.

I think Ronaldo will stay to be honest

I understand Ronaldos flaws in a pressing system, and the concerns over him playing for ETH but you can't question his attitude and I think he'll go up a level (to what we saw at times this year) by virtue of having a team around him who match his attitude playing for a manager that hopefully raises the level.

No reason why he can't feature like Haller did for Ajax, he's hardly Tevez in terms of workrate.

I think Ronaldo will score plenty again, and we'll make a big CF signing next summer as we continue to add to the squad.

The issue is who else can take some of the scoring responsibility over the course of the season.
