No way, i guess it would be easier to get Neuer now. AC Milan is arming, they already bought a player many had on our list (Kessie), probably soon to secure the second (Belotti). No way they are letting their biggest talent and new figurehead leave.Donnarumma - Mino player. We took three of his so now once again we'll pay him a huge fee.
I think he only has one year left on his contract. There's not that much Milan can do if that is true.No way, i guess it would be easier to get Neuer now.

Bale and Griezmann would be nice, but i guess it's pretty unrealistic that we'd get both
Donnarumma - Mino player. We took three of his so now once again we'll pay him a huge fee.
Keane - No other good CB out there (unless Thiago Silva really leaves PSG)
Naingolan - Would complete so well Herrera and Pogba
Bale - Part of the De Gea deal
Griezmann - Top target. Absolute must
My teams in 433 and 4231:
Donnarumma
Valencia
Bailly
Keane
Shaw
Naingollan
Herrera
Pogba
Bale
Mkhitaryan
Griezmann
Romero
Darmian
Jones
Smalling
Rojo
Carrick
Fellaini
Lingard
Mata

The "not letting him go" quote was meant that they persuade him to stay, rather then forcing him to stay, which you rightly pointed out to be impossible. 3,5m for an 18 year old is insane already, i doubt that any 18-year old has earned that much money so far, definitely not in Serie A. I am pretty sure we won't offer him more, that would pretty much overthrow our already inflated wage structure. If he'd like to go to us, it would not be for the money. And i don't think there are different reasons for an 18 year old Italian, given that most of them still live at Mama aged 25. At his age most goalkeepers kick around in the U-19 teams. I'd say Kessie is already similar quality to Belotti, if you look at their undoubtedly very different positions. Kessie probably having the higher ceiling. Given Donnarumma will be 22 in 4 years, an age most goalkeepers are still no starters at their respective teams, he has all the time of the world to decide if/when to go. I stick with it, he won't go...definitely not this summer. Quote me if it happensMeaning ACM don't hold the cards in this. If Donna wants to go to make more money elsewhere, he will go and we would be a very likley destination if DDG leaves, if he is happy at ACM and wants to stay there, he will stay. But the decision is very much up to him, if he wants to go, not much ACM can do about it.
- His current deal ends june 2018
- He hasn't signed a new deal
- Milan's offer for contract extension is with a €3.5m a year salary (and they can't and won't afford much more for him)
- His agent is Mino Raiola
I don't know what sort off player he is but if he would come to United he could easily earn double the wage ACM will offer him which is a huge factor. Staying at ACM right now is very much chosing for a project but it is a very premature project, there are questionmarks about the chinese capital on which the entire project is build and it remains to be seen what sort of players ACM can attract. Sure they have been off to a good start but I really doubt they will be signing up players like Belotti for example, they will be trying for sure but I don't think they can afford such big moves already. Anyway there is a huge rebuild coming up at that club, it remains to be seen if Donnarumma wants to stick around for that for the next 4-5 years or if he will chose to go for the money and sign for a club like United. I would not discard either possiblity.
Personally i would have faith in Rashford to make the position his own, especially with the main goal scoring burden on Griezmann, could be great for his development. Would understand people who have reservations though, funnily enough i can see Mourinho trusting him after his showings at striker this season.Anyone else a bit concerned with the fact that we haven't been heavily linked with a proper striker yet? I just don't think Rashford is ready to lead the line yet, even with Griezmann behind him, especially if we want to be challenging for the title next year.
As for the four players, I'll go with: Griezmann, Keane, Bakayoko, Silva
Really? I know he had a decent season but come on !No other good CB out there ?
Are you fecking kidding me ?
- Manolas
- Van Dijk
- Gimenez
- Marquinhos
- Varane
- Koulibaly
- Romagnoli
- Laporte
- Lindelöf
- Rugani
- De Vrij
- Pepe (on a free !)
Griezmann and Bernardo Silva both seem like they're heavily linked and have been for a while. Always felt it would be one of the two, though I guess we could get both? Would make our attack brilliant though. A holding midfield is still necessary, as is a center back (Keane) and ideally a left back though I guess Mourinho might be okay with Darmian/Shaw/Blind.
GriezmannProblem with this is it really isn't a Mourinho style team. Also still slightly lacking pace in attack, though a feck ton of quality and intelligence. Still feel like the midfield needs that holding mid, though the attack also needs a main striker. Which is kind of why I don't think Griezmann completely suits us but we'll see
Mkhitaryan Bernardo Silva
Pogba ????? Herrera
Darmian Keane Bailly Valencia
De Gea
I'm going to protest if we signed that dick Pepe. Don't care how good he may be. Absolutely despicable dude whose antics will only hurt us in the PLNo other good CB out there ?

If we sign Griezmann + Bernardo Silva and put them behind Rashford and sign Zlatan for another year it wouldn't be too bad. Martial is also another option.
Who is out there? I'd imagine many still [rightly] hold hope for Shaw too.Interesting to see that very few want a new LB. Apart from attacker and a DM next to Herrera and Pogba I think that should be our top priority.
It's probably going to be Eric Dier isn't it...
Kane lindelof sanchez and dierWhoever gets it right wins a kenwood juicer
I'll go first
Griezmann, Manolas, Semedo and Tielemans
Griezmann
Silva
Dier
LB (no idea who)
Something like this:
Lots of Dier mentions. Surely nearly impossible. Spurs getting champions league money. They'd be crazy to weaken.
Out of the first team I think they could realistically replace him easier than the others.......which is the reason I don't want him here either.
