Inter Milan 'going all out' to sign Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku, says his agent

I think we've seen enough to know how they operate.

The club’s spent a lot of money this past 6 years.

We could go on all day about that. But relatively speaking, taking into account the money this club makes by comparison to every other club in the world, they haven't spent that much.

And if you're looking at the Glazer's ownership as a whole over the 14 years they've been in charge, for the vast majority of that time, barring maybe 2-3 transfer windows... they've gotten away with investing the bare minimum or close to it.

We’re only playing with 1 striker, so instead of lukaku, rashford and martial as the three options we have martial, rashford and greenwood. Seems reasonable to me to give martial and rashford their opportunity given how ole wants to play. If they can’t cut it as first choice because they don’t score enough, we get someone else in.



But we didn’t want him to be a starting first team forward. His position as striker has been given to martial, with rashford and greenwood as other options. 3 options for one spot not enough?

Whether he was wanted or not really isn't the point and that comes nowhere near having three options for one spot. Who comes in for Rashford if he's in for Martial and there is no way Greenwood at 17 can be considered a starting forward at this stage.

We are light up front with little to no cover regardless of how its shuffled and everyone knows why.

Martial and Rashford will struggle for 20. They're not natural goalscorers

Imagine not replacing a prolific striker?

He hadn't been "prolific" at United for a while, that may have something to do with him being sold?

Whether he was prolific or not he still scored goals, he's simply not been replaced and that was £#%&!ing daft.

Well no argument there, blame football genius Woody (again)

Shame about the abhorrent racism.

Happened after he scored the winning penalty. Same fans that racially abused Moise Kean last season. Wonder what punishment they'll get...

But neither of them is lukaku.

Not entirely sure when converting a penalty and scoring a goal from open play became equally praiseworthy tbh, especially when you played no part in the award of it.

Oh and he missed a sitter too.
