Christopher Nkunku

Wouldn't Felix be better than Nkunku?

Not that either are great, but Felix has definitely done more in English football than Nkunku. And if both are available, I'd much rather go for Felix.
 
Jesus

If he’s isn’t injured he’s out of form he’s been a complete flop at Chelsea

Pointless

Felix is cack. Nkunku probably is too, but Felix is even more so.
 
As long as it's a loan I wouldn't mind but don't go wasting a shit ton of money on another injury prone player that might not even be good enough to play in the PL.
 
Well we need someone don’t we

If we don’t get a forward at all we will obviously not qualify for Europe by any method

Why would Chelsea help us though
 
If this lad is fit, then I think he’d be one of our best attackers. I don’t want us to buy him (can’t afford him anyway right now), but a loan would be fine. Chelsea need him off the books for the rest of the season I guess. I’d be happy with a loan here.
 
Again, no, thanks. He isn't as good as many think, and it doesn't even matter because is rarely fit. Even on loan I'd be surprised if he doesn't spend it injured.
 
If I had a choice, I would take Joao Felix over him. Felix has produced wherever he has played albeit not ultra prolific.

Hargreaves was part of the Champions League winning team and was great for us in that year. He shouldn’t be on that list. Injuries obviously wrecked him after.

When fit Hargreaves was essential to that team. His burst of pace to close down the midfield was immense

What exactly has he done? Played football for a short spell here before?

Premier league stats (taken from Fantasy Football)
Joao Felix: 1298 minutes in 2 seasons, 5 goals, 1 assist (8,4 xgi - so he's underperforming)

Nkunku: 854 minutes in 2 seasons, 5 goals, 1 assist (7,44 xgi but also less games)

Agree - clever player that can setup a lot - not prolific but would be a great loan.

Not sure he’s the one that they will let go though.
 
I would prefer to Nkunku to Felix for sure. More goals.

I do feel like Nkunku is one of those players who would do a lot better if playing every game. No forward is going to score lots of goals for us at the moment, but he might help us in the Europa and lift us a few places in the league.

Looked to be really lacking in effort and motivation when brought on against City though

The issue is monetary as well as time. We probably have to be creative making negotiations a bit tougher.

Hopefully we get at least one done though.

He is very talented.

But like Pogba, teams have to build around him. Otherwise, they are near impossible to accommodate.

Talented but no one seems to know how to unlock him and he's now 25. He will keep having a middling career I feel
 
I just don't rate this guy. Some will say he's an upgrade on what we have but I'd say not enough to bother (and certainly not as a permanent or obligation to buy)

I didn't follow him at Chealsea but he was absolutely incredible at Leipzig and that is probably clouding my view. Would love to have him at Bayern for the right price.

We know.

But the club should’ve known his previous before we signed him… and he certainly had previous

The point remains
 
Loan seems like a good move we need numbers and options, as long as there is no obligation or the obligation is bargain basement, an option at a reasonable price would be great, they owe us for Mount and Sancho but doubt they will see it that way

Think we would be helping them by giving him minutes they can't! We are no threat to them in the league at all.
 
No way we're selling Garnacho and loaning Nkunku right? we're already struggling to create and score goals, we need at least 2 attackers to come in
 
If we were willing to loan them Sancho mid-season last year, surely they can return the favour this year
