Not as advanced as we thought then

Looks good to me, like. Best kind of second choice striker for us is one who can play in other positions. His assist record shows he's unselfish and can provide as well as slot, he seems quick and powerful, apparently good on the ball. Seems like Kone but with more goals and more athletic (I think the injuries took a yard of pace from Arouna).

It doesn't imply that at all.

The guardian broke the news and everyone else is just sponging off that news.

not rated on football manager to be honest, not sure on this one. Seems like a lot of money to pay for a backup striker, look at Charlie Austin for isntance.

Its actually brilliant to think we could have:

Lukaku / Niasse / Kone
Barkley / Bolanos /Tarashaj
Deulofeu / Lennon / Mirallas

But zero left wingers...unless one of these can play on the left permanently.

Im hopeful that these two are coming in for competition and we have plans for a Yarmolenko level player in the summer as well as a keeper.

Would be a bit disappointed if we didnt have the Xfactor type to come in....like when UTD went and got Cantona, we need one key signing like that to take us to the next level.

You genuinely have mental issues.

Has Tim Vickery weighed in on this one yet?

If Roberto likes him and he knows that Lukaku is off in the summer then why not

Charlie Austin is on one hundred thousand pounds a week at Southampton.

Nothing more needs to be said.

Why only if Lukaku is off in the summer? We're in desperate need of back up in that position.

This is a shrewd move from a financial perspective. With a bit of handy needlework we can just repurpose Naismith's old tops.

Is this a wind up post or are you being dense

If we sign this guy we'll never see Rodriguez in the first team. Mainly because there's no chance he's going to want to share the showers with Naisse, Kone and Lukaku.

What do you mean by that?
