I don't disagree; though Gyokeres specifically became that under Amorim so you never know what he could do with Hojlund. Regardless, I think Gyokeres would be a great option. Move Zirkzee on swiftly if the rumoured interest is true and we might not even lose much in the fee.
Ruben Amorim | United meet Sporting release clause
- Thread starter Raoul
- Start date
Ivan Toney is an example. But you usually aren’t paying top whack for these players because you’re taking such a risk on them. If he costs 70, 80m then you’re not getting the benefit of taking that sort of punt.
Which suggests Amorim turned an average striker into a good one. Hopefully he can find a spark and make a few of United forwards clinical and consistent scorers.

Slightly OTT much?
Jackson Martinez. Jonas Goncalves. Haris Seferovic. Bas Dost. Darwin Nunez.
I know it's the Championship but Gyokeres had been excellent for Coventry. It's not really correct to suggest he only magically became good at Sporting. Amorim certainly helped him improve further though. I agree with you on Zirkzee. I know it's early and thus probably a bit unfair to give up on him already, but I never understood the signing in the first place. I hadn't seen Zirkzee play before joining Utd but everything I knew about him and saw from highlights and stats never suggested he would be a reliable goalscorer which is what we needed. Best to get rid quickly and bring in a better striker before his value completely tanks like Antony.

"Very well, thank you"
"The deal is done ladss!!!! The deal is done!!!!"
Which suggests a 27 years old striker found his goalscoring streak at the normal age for a striker in a relatively lower league in Europe
No. It's a gowlfest of geebags who are never right about anything. Worse than the sun.
Jardel had similar numbers.
Yes, and they both like Glee and puppies. My point is that their age doesn’t mean anything and neither does PL experience when it comes to what’s important - playing style, man management skills and the chance of success here. Moyes is an old school manager, the two others are not.
It's a higher level league than the championship with Coventry and scoring 62 times in 64 games isn't that normal for a striker once he reaches his mid 20s.
Now that’s definitely too much. The only thing worse than the Sun is The Star.
Hojlund has proven his extraordinary finishing ability every chance he’s gotten which of course are too few. If Amorim fixes that and Hojlund gets chances he’ll score a shitload.
They're both not very bright.
Well played.

Have found them pretty reliable especially just pre-takeover.
