You're missing the problem, mate, that Wilson is not doing enough up front and we have no options from the bench. I'd ALSO go for Pulisic (or CHO) and Maddison (or Paqueta) but we need a CF which was the question - if you are doubting the club shelling out £25m (not £40m) for Ramos, then who do you suggest they get for that money? We know Isak will cost more, we know the profile we want (young, reasonably tall and adaptable), so who else is available? I tell you, £25m for Ramos or £35m for Ekitike, I know who I'd back to be a success.
The kids international stats are good. He scores goals with his head and he is a fox in the box.

I think he would be a fantastic signing.
 
I understand what you guys are saying but what i'm saying is how low in quality do we go "just to sign anyone because it's better than nothing and we need a center forward"? and pay 40m for someone who's not worth it?

What we need is attacking options, and CF is not the only weak spot in our team.

ASM is our best winger and he's erractic and offers nothing defensively. Besides ASM, we have murphy, almiron and fraser.

Our wing options are piss poor also, so you can argue our wing needs upgrading also because no one on the wing is a great option to rely on for goals.

You say we're not creating chances, so why is a CF is our priority if we cannot create chances?

Surely a CAM and a winger would be better then? We could easily change our formation.

I understand your issue with Maddison but we literally big 40m for him so it's obvious management think we can use him if needed.

If Bruno can score 5 from midfield, Maddison should still be able to do his thing.
I agree with the point that we are not creating chances. ASM has personally said if you give me a decent striker I will create the chances.

I had always said in order of preference a CM (to create openings) first. Then a RW (to get on the end of the openings to supply chances to a striker). And then a striker.
 
I reckon there is something in the Hudson-Odoi rumours, claims in press he prefers a move to us rather than Leicester or Southampton
I said this at the very very beginning of the transfer window that we should go for him (look back it’s there) and a lot of people said no (not you I might add).

The kid was the most valuable player in the world a couple of years ago. He’s just not been given a good go at things.

He is definately worth a loan deal punt and he must be better than Miggy??!

TBH I don't know, but I'd hope we could do better for 40m. He's a 21 year old kid who's only managed 7 goals a Portuguese league.

I'd personally go for Pulisic on loan with option to buy and Maddison for 45m + dubz/add ons and increase from there.

ASM---------Wilson---------Pulisic
-------------Maddison-------------
----Joelinton--------Bruno---------------
Targett--Burn----Botman/Schar--Tripps
-----------------Pope--------------------


How did you know he's not worth it?
