Admittedly he is untested at cf, but can still score goals. If we do it your way, we would have:
James --------New CF---------Greenwood
Who's going to give the new cf service from wide?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Service would come from Shaw, Williams, Greenwood, James plus Fernandes and Pogba from midfield.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And how many assists do Shaw, Williams, Greenwood, and James have this season?
You want us to rely on wide players that aren't good at creating?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We do on the Left. Why is that not.an issue?,

To accommodate Rashford basically. As our fullbacks aren't the most creative, we at least need a winger on one side. Otherwise we try to play through the middle against all those packed bodies.

Jimenez, Haaland, Aubameyang. Lacazette, Lewandowski, Kane.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Would cost a lot of money even lacazette, who would be the cheapest of the bunch, and bar possibly lacazette, none of them would come as a back up striker.
Why do they have to be back ups? The guy performing better plays.

"The CF doesnt necessarily have to be better than Martial. Just a better option than Ighalo when Martial has a dry spell"
This was your criteria ^
Are you now effectively saying you want martial replaced as our main CF ?
I'm saying we need another CF in the squad. If they are better than Martial, then so be it.
Why wouldnt you want another quality CF in the squad?
I feel like signing a first choice striker would rock the boat far more than signing Sancho.
Greenwood can play all three of the attacking positions, and with 50+ games will know he will get plenty of time for an 18 year old.
Moving Martial or Rashford to the bench though may cause some disharmony after they have both played their best season, numbers wise, and have really formed a good bond.
Sure, this is Man Utd and you have to play for your place... But sometimes if it aint broke, don't fix it. I don't even mind if we don't get Sancho, but we do need better options than Mata, James and Lingard.
When has Greenwood proven himself on the left and at CF ?
Rashford has been poor since the restart, and Martial has had 1 decent season at CF.
Its Man United. If these guys arent up for the competition then they arent good enough.
I guess it is just easier not to read the bulk of people's posts, right.
Enjoy your article, no point trying.

Exactly
A marquee signing like Lewandowski for example would come expecting to be first choice and would relegate martial , rashford and Greenwood in the pecking order and would probably hail the exit of one or both of martial and rashford.
None of the names he mentioned arnt likely to happen but the OP is right in that they would be "a better option than ighalo when martial has a dry spell"
If Martial and Rashford asked to leave because wed signed a better forward than them then they are at the wrong club anyway.
You should know this as a United fan.
Probably wise to sign both Lewa and Kane, just in case either has a dry spell too

And you should know as a utd fan that martial has hung in there when Ibrahimovic and Lukaku were brought in
No he has the position and is delivering with goals , performances and promise of further improvement you want to replace him

Quite right. No one has a divine right to play, certainly not Rashford who's been extremely poor since the restart.
Yet his form is godly compared to Dan James and Jesse Lingard.
