So we've managed to make the entirety of our striking options into a bit of a gamble?

And they say we play with no risks...
 
I am not excited about this signing at all.

I don't understand why are we buying another Inexperienced youngster for a huge fee. At this point We need established players not raw youth.

If this isn't a panic buy then I dint know what is. I'd rather we put the money towards someone else.
 
A lot of money being quoted for him. Seems a bit like a panic buy. I'm sure we've scouted him intensively but I doubt he'll solve our attacking problems right off the bat
 
Yep. But LvG isn't going to bench his captain for a 19 year old un-proven player. I'd be more worried about Mata's position.

Wayne Rooney in the PL - 0 goals, 0 assists, 8 shots on target
Juan Mata PL stats - 1 goal, 1 assist, 9 shots on target

Sorry Juan, someone's got to make room.
 
That's a hell of a lot of money... But I guess that doesn't matter. If he brings quality then that's all that really counts. We need more but it's a good start as we approach the deadline. And of course if Barca wanted him then he must be pretty damn good.
 
Don't give a feck about the price at all. He's exactly the type of player we are crying out for, just a couple of years younger then ideal. If he fulfills his potential he'll be arguably the best striker around though. Everyone always says we can't afford to miss out on the next big thing... Well here we are, doing what's needed.

He'll give us qualities we lack. Pace, power, ability to get past players. Delighted we're bringing him in. Obviously it would've been nice for someone proven, but there is literally nobody who is any good available. Martial can get to the point where he reaches this value we are paying for him for sure. So there you go. With our resources, price shouldn't matter if we really want the kid.
 
This is actually happening. :lol: 70m Euros + addons!? We could've released Griezmann with that a 25 goal striker in one of Europe's top leagues.
 
My inner source is telling me that 20M of those 75 are bonuses if Martial becomes a Messi+Ronaldo one day.
