Numbers are good, looks a good finisher, what would he cost?

Doesn't strike me as a typical CF.

Wouldn't be a particularly great signing for you guys. He isn't the CF type you need, just another hybrid LW/CF like Rashford or Martial or Depay etc etc

Its gonna be upwards of £60m i reckon given what we paid for Martinez and Antony.

Can't say I know enough about him to say he's worth that.

It’s starting to look likely that we go back in for him.

My main concern is can he play as a lone CF?

He plays on the left for his club and at number 10 and in a front 2 for his country but never as a lone number 9 from my knowledge.

All well and good signing him and then realising actually his best positions is on the left where we already have numerous options.

he has played most of his career as a LW.

he has all the attributes to play up top. I dont think ETH is looking for an out and out striker though, he is looking for one that run the channels and also be able to drop deeper to run at the defence or link up.

He is mobile, strong and decent size so from a physical point he can easily. it looks like he as some composure about him also.

He will do at least as good a job as Richarlison does up top IMO

I would go for Kudos personally but both are good squad options who will cost a bit.

They were talking about £80m on the TV earlier.

No thanks.

United well stacked with wide forwards. Rashford, Sancho, Antony, Garnacho. No point unless one of them is moved on.

Has looked good for Holland but I wasn’t impressed in the CL qualifiers.

United need a genuine number 9.

3 of those current options have question marks over their long term future though, surely?

No they don't

Given he isn’t a CF? No.

As a singing generally? Yes.

Strikers are becoming rarer than rocking horse shat these days. Vlahovic would probably be a good option for you guys with the Juve fall out about to happen.

I have really liked how we look when Martial has been fit and playing, and would prefer someone fitter/stronger and more reliable to bust a gut for a whole season not just when he's happy, but still in that same style rather than a 'target man' type striker.
