The Premier League is far harder to score in compared to the Serie A. Look at how Lukaku's numbers dropped off when over here. 30 goals over there is about the equivalent of 20 goals over here

The Real Madrid that won three CLs in a row would disagree, it's taken them 5 years and Benzema having the season of his life to win another. Juventus problems extended far beyond Ronaldo, they went from Vidal and Marchisio to Ramsey and Bentancur, their squad declined massively over the years Portugal I feel is more due to their managers tactics more than anything, not too different to England in that regard As for United I feel Ole rode his luck massively getting them to 2nd place (the amount of penalties they got + rest of the top 6 being poor). I actually don't think Ronaldo has made any of his teams worse contrary to popular belief.

From the few games I have watched he doesn't seem anywhere near as lazy as Lukaku. Definietely conserves his energy due to his age, but his attitude is 100x better than Lukakus. If Tuchel told him to press he would 100% listen

Also scored 18 goals coming 3rd in the golden boot race in a dreadful United team. We're one of the best teams in the league for chances created, he could easily score 20+ for us

Honeslty he pressed a lot more for United under Rangick than Lukaku did for us last season

Think Tomori was more than good enough for us to be honest. Agree on Broja though, would prefer to see him play another season on loan than have to compete with Havertz for the no.9 spot

Think he could surprise people next season, he has a lot of top flight game time under his belt now for a 21 year old

Will probably be our deadline day panic signing for 50mil knowing us

From lurking Juventus fan threads a while ago they all seemed to think he was class

Really good news if true, a way better signing than Kounde (who has an operation and is arguably too short for the prem), not to mention it gets Werners wages off our books (as much as I like his effort he's not worth what he's getting paid).

Conte's Tottenham have won more points than us since he took over (with no pre season), they're already better than us. Add in Perisic and Bissouma and they're way ahead

Thought Boehly out of all the potential owners was the most likely to spend money given his record with the Dodgers. Nothing wrong with not signing players this early but the fact that there aren't even rumors of us being seriously interested in anyone is worrying

Yeah not to mention Chalobah is a very good defender for his age, surprised people don't think he's good enough

Really suprised we didn't go for Bissouma, 25m is an absolute steal. Declan Rice would cost at least 4x that (and watching him for England really not sure he's worth that much)

Really like this idea

Kinda makes me wish we had Conte , that's exactly what he would have done

Think Lautaro is massively overrated tbh, if he can't score 20+ regularly in Serie A he'd struggle to get 10-15 over here

Straight swap deal for Lukaku?

Have to admit our exit to Real is looking a lot better now

Nkunku? 20 assists last season

Yeah really don't get why people thought he'd be a good signing. He scored 1 goal in La liga last season, not too mention way too injury prone. We have enough mediocre inconsistent attackers as it is

His injury record is more worrying than his wages, similar to Dembele

Conte's Tottenham were 10+ points behind us when he took over and they nearly caught us. That's with a worse squad and no pre season. He's a seriously underrated manager

If we'd signed him when Conte wanted him instead of Morata his Chelsea legacy would be very different

Why should Stamford Bridge be sold? There's nothing wrong with it. Surely parts can just be redeveloped if they're out of date. It's not like we sell out every week either, average attendance last season was 36,270
