Not good enough to be a starter for us and doesn't want to be a backup. I don't see the point of spending a world class money on Lukaku.

If Costa were to leave he would for sure be good enough to start for us but with Costa still here if we play one striker then no he wouldn't be.

I expect him and Stones to be two of Jose's first signings for United.

I dont think Lukaku will go to Utd. Having read his quotes I am starting to think he is coming back here.  Or PSG.

 

Also, I am not, and never was to be honest, completely certain that Stones was a Jose target, i think Emenalo wanted him.  Because if Jose had his way, we'd have signed Varane, not Stones. As would most clubs to be honest, but nah im not convinced Jose picked him

José Mourinho has identified André Gomes, João Mário, John Stones, Álvaro Morata, Mauro Icardi and Ezequiel Garay as summer targets for Manchester United as part of an anticipated minimum £150m spend.

Good luck getting them all for that money. More competition for Morata and both of the portugese players

I can't see Jose going for Lukaku, especially not for £60m. I think Zaltan Imbrahimovic is nailed on to go to United, thus why he's not announced where he's going.

I can see United getting Stones though. United will just stump up the cash.

I like the look of koulibaby (whatever his name is) the cb. He seems fast, strong with good tackling ability. Dunno if we can get him though, especially for the rumoured 20 million.

The rumours of Lukaku is ridiculous. £60m for a guy that can't play possession football. We've been here with Torres who couldn't play possession football either.

No I feel he's gonna have a good tournament

 

Will be lucky the get off the bench. Wont start a single game for England barring a late injury to Cahill or Smalling

I hope not personally, one of Jose's best decisions imo... Mata and Fabregas in the same team would be entertaining to watch but most likely we'll concede as many as we score

 

what about as a back up? has he ever play as CM? i can't remember

all this talk about buying Pjanic for Cesc's backup, maybe we shoud buy Mata back instead

he's still young, but yeah 60 million is too much. he doesn't have much technical ability and we already have costa who lacks that. i would not want two strikers of similar technical skill. I would personally like to see traore develop into a striker, but i'm worried he will be overlooked next season. unfortunately there are not many strikers with top technical ability out there, especially ones who are available.

I agree with the Traore bit but Lukaku having no technical ability is absolute rubbish. He's remarkably good with the ball at his feet for someone his size. Look at his goal against us in the FA cup, Costa and a thousand other players could never pull that off. I think he'd compliment Costa pretty well if they played together. As a lone forward he may not be the best yet but he was much better at Everton when he had Kone on the pitch with him.

If it was a mistake to sell him like so many are want to point out then why is buying him back also a mistake? 65m, if he even goes for that, isnt that much considering the market and his age.

He said he's decided on his next club and from his statement, seems like he's saying goodbye to premier league.. maybe psg, someone to partner cavani or rolling.. 

apparently joao mario changed his agent from jorge mendes to some agent called joorabchian who happens to be associated with abramovich. 

 

He's the geezer who was responsible for (or at least involved in) the Tevez/Mascherano fiasco, right?

Correct, and doing a search on him, he seems to be involved in a few fiascoes regarding transfers. On the plus side, he helped ship out Ramires.

    According to the Times Jamie Vardy has a 22 million release clause. He is worth that if you ask me.
