    Mubama be in a similar situation to Hemir, in that, he'll want to be playing.

    If we got Mubama I'd like to see us loan a proven striker and then get someone else in.

    I work with his aunty so will find out but as far as I know the plan has always been for him to go back to Leeds.

    He’s not long since bought a house in Harrogate as well.

    Boro have an agreement in principle which they can enact, reportedly for only £1.5m.

    He's probably worth double that imo, even though he hasn't had the best season.

    Greenwood and Mubama would be an improvement but still not entirely sure they’d give us the quality that would get us to the top end. Delap yes, Hardie yes that ilk and we’re away.

    Greenwood is a winger as well and our squad is stacked with wingers, Mubama more of a 9 although his lack of experience worries me, last thing we need is another Hemir.

    Would be a good experienced signing for a championship club. Scored a couple from central midfield in the PL this season…

    Greenwood is more of a winger, Mubama not much experience. Delap seems to only be good in a 2 up top. I think we need a target man / focal point more than anything. If we go for a smaller striker. I don’t think Tom Cannon will get much game time at Leicester he will likely be loaned to the championship

    I'd prefer Delap as a loan striker to Cannon, he's seemingly got more about him.

    I hope not. Most of his football played at u21 level. 1 goal in 18 games for Burton. No thanks.

    I think the striker position should be filled by a loanee with some experience, and then our younger lads can be the competition/cover, by the season after next the likes of Hemir, Mayenda etc should be closer to being ready.

    Don't know if this has been posted already, but according to the BBC, in a table suggesting the likely selling price of the entire Man U squad, Diallo is listed as being worth £7m. I'd say that would be a bargain.
    People have said on here that MU paid a lot for him, but, as with everything, he's only worth what someone is willing to pay.
    Get in KLD (please).

    The BBC are off their heads <laugh> there’s not a chance Amad goes for £7m.

    Picked out their arses that number. Minimum would be £15m imo.

    Genuinely think Utd might talk at £15m. £7m would be insane though.

    People need to forget about Diallo, not only would he require us to break our transfer record but he would double our highest earner and we have a wage structure that we are refusing to break for Jack Clarke. Sniffing glue honestly.

    15m with a significant % of any profit made on him and I think they could go for it.

    We can't be spending that on a single player.

    How often did we spend that when we were an established premier league club?

    It's just not happening.

    £15m upfront, 5 on the backend and 30% sell on, and they might sit at our table.
