Am I the only one who isn't the least bit excited about this?
Álvaro Morata | Chelsea player

We have Rashford, Martial, Morata and quite Possibly Rooney. We shouldnt be looking to sign another pension inferior to the one we have just let go when we have quality in the squad inalready.
Doesn't seem like so big to me after Pogba.
Yes, the only one in the whole world, ever.
We are not going to play one striker system i think we'll play 3 forwards. But yeah we wont get both belotti and morata, If we are to spend on another forward it should be grizmann next season.
If those chances were easy to convert than surely Mou would have replaced Ibra with some other option and they would score the goals.
Fair do's.
Im only being realistic. There's not many top quality strikers around. Hence why despite we've got money to burn, United best options are Real's benchwarmer and a striker who never played with a great club
2 different posters above you would suggest not.
Anyone else thinks Jose is going to do what he did at Inter when he played Eto'o on thr right, Pandev on the left and Milito central?
Perisic Belotti Morata.
Perisic Belotti Morata.
60 m pounds should be enough for morata, Its completely fair offer. If these stories are true.
So did our resident bs @Acquire Me told us about Morata signing ? because from what I can gather there wasn't any publicised interest like Greizmann that we'd be signing him.

Apparently not but then again there seems to be a very low entry requirement for judging players these days .
Although having said that, at least most people know he's Spanish
Here you go muppets, time to get your cocks out. He's exactly what we need in front of goal.
Based on one run against Bayern some think he is the second coming of Ronaldo9, if it was something he could do consistently, Benzema wouldnt play a game.
He has a habit of hitting/heading it at the goal keeper a lot as shown in that video and his close control is hardly great either. I want him to prove me wrong by being a 30 goal in all comps striker (which is a fair expectation for such a huge outlay) but I honestly just don't see him doing that.
We had Rashford, Martial, Ibrahimovic (who's a more proven goal scorer than Morata) and Rooney (who is probably leaving anyway) last year and we constantly struggled to score goals. We scored less goals than Bournemouth last year in the league, who are taking Defoe.
That's great too!
Very excited about him. Top player and will flourish at United. Good age too.
He can't but posters here will cling to one offs like that rather than face the reality that if any other team was paying such a fee for a player of his ability, we would be rightfully crucifying them. Mind you, our transfer strategy in the last 4 years has been waste after waste, so no surprise there anymore.
One thing that gives me hope is that Mourinho knows him well, so here's hoping he proves us doubters wrong.
To be fair, this is public as hell
and it has been for a while. Not a done deal, so not much to say. Wait for Di Marzio.Which I'd hope would be an indication to ypu that personnel wasn't our proven. Or is Defoe a better option than Martial, Rashford and Morata then?
His age is usually the peak years for strikers. Top of his physical strength.
Hope your right. I hope with him we have our main striker for years to come. I hope i eat my words this christmas.
I was just writing something similar When I saw this. He's a great player but he just doesn't look like a natural finisher. Except for his heading. Can't say I'm an expert but he feels like he should be either side of the central striker.
I'm with you, never fancied Italians doing well in the PL.
24/25 is definitely not the usual peak age for a striker.
25 strikers, 28 midfielders, 30 defenders is my notion. But in the end it's different from player to player.
I'm not even sure he is better than Rashford right now so 60M is a head scratching amount for me.
Wanted him last summer and happy with his potential purchase this time around.
He's a very classy player, I think a lot of United fans who're unsure will take an instant liking to him when they see him play.

It took RVP until he was about 27 to get anywhere near his peak.
Your notion is wrong.
It's public now. Greizmann was our long term target and it was known for ages.To be fair, this is public as hell
Also you didn't answer my question.
I am not super excited. I was never super excited about RvP. In fact, it took me a long time to feel he was one of us and not one of them.
And I was super excited about Di Maria coming to Utd and look how that turned out.
Hope he does excellently well here.
PS: All those super excited people should not forget that, if he comes, it will be first season for him in PL. So don't lose your knickers when he is unable to meet your lofty expectations

You must really overrate Rashford then
Apperently, hopefully.
Well you're wrong.
