I suspect so, yes. He has this weird delusion in his head that top clubs will be fighting over him because there were some newspaper gossip columns suggesting it last year. The only club that would go near him is a fellow basket case like Man United.
I could see a club like Everton crazy enough to spend 30-40 million on him. If United put up 20-25 it would be a great sting.

He'll be off to Newcastle if Arsenal don't follow up their interest
 

I'm with all the shouts that he's been crap.

But look at the two goals Burnley scored in the second half yesterday.

We've cretaed one - ONE - chance like that all season for Dom, and it resulted in a goal. Weirdly enough, not for Dom, but for Coleman charging in on the rebound like :D

But the point stands, we have to create better chances. We had the chances yesterday through Richarlison to have the game won. He flapped at them too. But at least he's working as opposed to Dom who is so, so far off the pace.

Effort is the bare minimum. How can anyone seriously argue he is working hard after an incident like the one with Tarkowski. He literally got skinned in 2 feet of space with the touchline to help. He couldn't be arsed to put in a challenge.

And if you can't be arsed to challenge defensively, then you aren't going to win loose balls in the box either. It's a mindset, and I'm sorry, but ever since he came back from injury, even as far back as that Brighton game, I've seen a different player to last year. It's a player who isn't willing to compete with defenders, a player who has next to no movement in behind, and a player who is absolutely not giving their best.

He can be the difference for us because he has the ability, and that's why I'm upset. Only he can decide what happens next. if he's in the right mindset, he will cause United trouble, but I have little confidence in that happenning, because we would have seen it by now if it was going to happen.
 
They are after some lad at Napoli, DCL is very much down the list for them. I think Newcastle and West Ham are the only clubs who have recently been linked with him.
I don't think DCL is way down the list tbh. They'll have a few targets like any club.

DCL would score 30 goals in a season for City because they create so many chances that he'd thrive off. People think that's easy but it's not, considering Jesus never gets near that total.

Not saying DCL is that standard and City won't go for him, but teams know that he's still a very good striker with the right type of service. He's proved it.

But he won't have impressed potential suitors with his lack of workrate recently. He's clearly not fit, that injury was really bad, but there's no excuse for not trying as hard as Richarlison or Gordon.
