Higuain went for the same last last summer and he's 5 years older!

It depends. I also wanted Morata more. But If Conte wanted Lukaku we weakened Chelsea as i think Morata wont be as suitable replacement for their style of play. Pogba is good friends with Lukaku. He already lives in the north. Is used to EPL. I expext he will get same ball service as Ibra or maybe better I expect him to bag 30-35 goals. Is not in the top tier striker bracket yet. If he gets there he can have similar effect as Drogba. And we sent a big nice fat fu.ck off you cu.nts to Real. And Rooney to Everton. Kudoz Ed.
Next to the one of SAF?The guy is the reason we had to shell out 100 million for Pogba in the first place but dragging him to Juventus. We're making sure the fat f**k stays fat with the sums we're paying. There's no need to thank him for anything.
Who next? Donna? or i heard dembele is switching his agent to riola.
ROMELU LUKAKU MR ROBOTO!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's 20+ goals next season guaranteed at least.

People keep saying this was done quickly. I dont think that's right. It was done discreetly. There's a difference.
75m
Good price for a PL proven 25+ goals a season striker who's only 24
Very after the fact but feck it, I'm delighted to be honest. Morata is coming too I think and that will be two effective strikers to lead the charge next season.
Not happy but it is what it is
Exactly! All those home games against mediocrity that we drew last year! The big games are more about the tactical battle than a particular striker anyway. If Lukaku get the service he'll put the goals away, simple as that.
I remember him having a 10/10 performance away at Chelsea last season or the season before (in the FA Cup). He got the tools to be an absolute beast but I really wanted Morata instead.
Apart from that time he scored a hat trick against us playing for West fecking Brom
I'm very happy with this. I also feel the Morata deal isn't dead just yet.
Oh, brilliant
I was just about to ask what the Madrid angle on this was. Kept my distance from silly season over the last month, so cheers.
By signing Rooney?
Yeah, it's more that it came out of nowhere tbh so people think it was quick.
I think Morata suits them with ease in place of costa.
Happy with this.
We've ended interest.
We pay United tax for every player so I don't care too much about price. I preferred Morata but can't say I'm overly disappointed.
Lukaku the lesser risk.
Helps that he's huge friends with Pogba too. I like that.
I just hope we are not still paying his wages at Everton !
Think that was for 78m too.
Buying the best striker from the team that finished directly below you. Fergie-like.
It made more sense when we finished 1st
Can't see how we'd play both.
Delighted with this. Going to be an animal for us the next few years.
Exactly this, when you consider the points dropped last season against said little teams, the difference he could make is massive. And let's be honest he also has a better chance of making an impact against the bigger teams playing for United than Everton.
We just need to sign Donnarumma to become Mino Raiola FC
Madrid is not run like a business but more like the play room of a megalomaniac.
Perez is the guy that sold almost all the players signed by his predecessor on the cheap. He has taken several steps to make it almost impossible for him to be unseated as president of Madrid.
Yeah, but isn't he quite close with the photography? IIRC he hasn't made calls like these until it's done and dusted.
A lot of money down the drain.
3 more than Zlatan last year? Going to take more than that to move from 5th to first *shrug* really hope there is more to come, doubted Morata was an instant fix, Lukaku certainly isnt
Some good, some bad about this. Let's see how he does next season. We can hope that he will up his game once he plays for a better team
It must be sad to be an Everton fan: to swap Lukaku for Rooney
hes the club photographer or something if i recall correctly
Absolutely. I understand it, but its an important distinction for people who think Woodward has been sitting on his arse in New Zealand watching rugby games to think about. Maybe people will chill about the other signings now.
Minochester UtdNext to the one of SAF?

A bit of a battering ram, so not an exciting signing but I think he will score a shed load for us.
We had a 20+ goal a season striker last season. Winning the league is more complicated than just having a 20+ goal a season. If it was Tottenham and Everton would've been champions.
Chelsea
