I don't get why you'd want Mbappe ahead of the others. He's too similar to Rashford, you need someone who guarantees goals to play upfront and as good as he is, he's only 18.

Imo Mendy would make the most sense given that you clearly need a left back, he's probably the best option in the market and he won't cost a fortune like Mbappe would. I'm pretty sure Mou will go for Mendy. Fabinho and Bernardo would be good options too.
 
Falcao as a bench option.

Not even joking either. I love the guy and he seemed to love playing for us. Plus Mourinho didn't really get to work with him long at Chelsea last season so he might see it as an option.

Fabinho, Bakayoko, Mendy and Glik would all improve us tremendously though. But I like Falcao more :devil:
 
Bernardo Silva. He has all the talent to be the best playmaker in the world and has dribbling abilities far superior to any other players of his ilk( I'm talking the likes of Mata, Silva, KDB, peak Iniesta). With players like Martial and Rashford opening up spaces around him with their pace, he would be absolutely devastating.
 
I like Silva the most, but if I look at our team and what we need and who would help us the most, I would say Fabinho.
 
Fabinho because he'd suits our midfield perfectly imo. I'm not fussy though I'd take Mbappe, Mendy or Silva too!
 
Silva. Our right wing has been crying out for some creativity for years.
 
Fabinho - we need him the most I think, despite our obvious issues scoring.
 
My heart has been set on Fabinho but I voted for Silva because he's a gem that we need to be in for.
 
Fabinho. Simply because he is what we need at the moment, and there's not many players out there like him. He's 23, only going to get better and will compliment our current midfielders.
 
Fabinho.

Falcao isn't actually a bad choice either.
Not too keen to spend a fortune on a 18 yr old striker to complement our existing 19 yr old striker.
 
Raggi. José needs warriors ready to die for him even if the club gets relegated to the championship!

Can you imagine Bluemoon forum reaction if United signed Raggi? I think you're definitely right. Mourinho make it happen
 
I went for Mendy as not too many great alternatives. Considered Fabinho but he hasn't impressed me much and I like Kessie. Mbappe would be great but don't think he wants to come. I can understand people picking Silva as Mhki has been very disappointing.
 
Great thread as I think if we do sign anyone from Monaco, we will only sign one. I can't ever remember us in our history signing more than one first teamer from the same team.

I voted Fabinho. Fabinho Herrera pogba midfield would be awesome. Hopefully would finally mean the end of fellaini. Although I'd love Fabinho and silva but highly unlikely.

I see a lot of people mentioning mbappe but I don't know man, his goals in the champions league are great but majority of his goals are in the French league which isn't really that impressive, depays banging them in, in ligue 1. He couldn't get a sniff in the EPL. I'd like to see him do it for one more season in Europe and possibly at the World Cup before deciding if he's really as good as the hype.

People mention he's like R9 he's like R9 without the magic. The magic is what set R9 apart from the rest.
 
Mendy is not good enough defensively.
Not a big fan of water carriers like Fabinho.
Bakayoko doesn't look anything special.

It'll be between Silva, Lemar and Mbappe for me.

Lemar is an excellent player but I don't know if he'll become a world class player. Plus, we already have Martial for the left, who I believe will eventually come good for us.

Mbappe is an exciting talent, but I don't think he can lead the line in a Jose system where hold up play is very important because of the constant hoofing from the back and the midfield.

Silva would be my choice. His ability on the ball is amazing, he has world class potential and we need someone for the right attacking position.

I agree with what your saying about Silva he's a great player with immense talent. But to call Fabinho a water carrier? He's much more then that. He can play midfield and righ back. He's scored 11 goals and got 4 assists this season, okay it's only the French league but it's still very good from a midfield player.

Have you watched Fabinho much this year?
 
We have enough players in the mold of Silva and despite him being an upgrade it wouldn't be enough of an upgrade. Mbappe despite him having an incredible season so far is still just one season, we have no idea how he will react to a bad run of form and if we did buy him it would mean Rashford would forever be doomed to a wide forward role (feck that).

Fabinho in my opinion provides the greatest upgrade to our squad, he'd essentially be a first choice midfielder for us alongside Pogba/Herrera and would provide valuable backup for Valencia if required.

Special mention to Lemar though, he's an excellent player.
 
Mbappe as he's going to be world class.

We definitely need a player like Fabinho, but think there's more choices in the world we could get.

Like Bernardo Silva a lot but I feel we have enough playmakers in a similar mould. Finishing is our issue not creating.

Thomas Lemar I think on our left side would actually give us real nice balance. He's a fantastic little player.
 
I would sign B.silva the guy oozes class and he will be terrific addition in our set up when the teams come to park the bus he can make a pass out of nowhere and against top teams he will be massive help in starting the counter attack with his dribbling, getting out of tight situations, eye for pass.It will help micki immensely to be on top of his game playing with players who are technically on par.

I like fabinho too but if we are to sign only one player it has to be Silva. Where as we have other alternatives for fabinho which we can get (F.kessie, L.perez, M.Savic)
 
Silva for me too. We should have a far better conversion rate considering our current attacking options, so an argument could easily be made that Mbappe would solve that. But for me, we just don't create enough quality chances to build confidence, so i feel we would be better served adding that extra creative dimension to improve our overall attacking play and spread more goals throughout the team.
 
Fabinho for me. He's just an exceptionally talented footballer and he'll fit perfectly in a mourinho side. To be honest he's probably my preferred transfer above the likes of griezmann. He's such a good fit and won't cost THAT much.
 
Surprised by how many players choose Mbappe.

I went for Fabinho, great DMF with excellent vision, good physicality, keen sense for the game and some very good passing abilities.

Also he can cover RB position as well.

Precisely right.
I would prefer a direct pacy winger (like Mane or Costa) over Silva, and Mbappe is just another supremely talented but inconsistent attacker to compete with our other supremely talented and inconsistent attackers
Fabinho changes our shape on the field, and I dont know of a better holding mid on the market
 
Surprised people are in favour of Mbappe over Bernardo Silva.

Mbappe is very similar to Rashford. Whilst Bernardo Silva is what this team is crying out for.

Someone to pass in between the lines, Silva would free players like Rashford & Martial to score more goals with his excellent weight of pass. Releasing balls early into space. At the moment Pogba has to create everything.

At the moment the service just isn't good enough nor is the dreadful link play in the final third. I think B. Silva would be one of those players that makes everyone around him better.

I don't think Mbappe would be as much of a success as B. Silva in the current climate. Looking at our manager and squad. B.Silva for me.

I'm not so surprised as Mbappe is fast and direct, which is something Sir Alex and our fans have been treated to for the last 20+ years with our purchases, majority of us love those type of attackers, myself included, but you're right Silva would probably be more beneficial in improving our attacking play as it stands.
 
Gone for Fabinho

Would give us a few options either as a right back or a holding midfielder, asking price would not ridiculous as well
 
Fabinho is what we need.

If we sign Griezmann, then we'd have to boot Martial to make room for Mbappe, and it's just stupid to offload one young superstar after one mediocre season, just to sign the new shiny thing.
 
Mbappe.. Because front three of martial mbappe and marcus looks deadly as hell after a few years.
 
All the redcafe experts say Fabinho but he didnt even start tonight? Is he actally that good that they prefer him over other players who did start tonight?
