I wouldn't say I'm happy to stick with Ighalo, it's just his arrival has shown to me how much we desperately could do with a proper striker like him. Maybe not actually him though.

Since Dortmund aren't an English club and thus out of reach of PL's transfer tribunals and as the player is still under a youth contract the compensation for Birmingham will be much less than what United supposedly would have had to pay.
If he was cheap he'd be a great third option. Don't see the problem with that. We desperately need a striker for next season.
Ighalo was a stop gap when there are no other options on the market. He clearly isn't good enough long term. He's missed two sitters already. We should be looking for better options to bench Martial.
If you are referring to the Everton chance as a sitter I think you're being harsh, Pickford for all his faults pulled off an incredible save for that one.
Quite surprised people don't recognize Brendan's initials.
Translation would be: he’s obviously going to Dortmund but it’s not announced yet, so I’ll mention United to get some traffic before it’s confirmed
Think we will go in when BVB drops out of the ECL, which could happen next week.
Surprise surprise. Bayern wont pay big
Because he'd be a decent back up striker, which is what we need.
Even if Sane wants to join Bayern they still have to agree the deal with City. Last summer they only offered £60-70m so now after a bad injury and with just one year left on his contract... What Bayern offer? £30m? £40m?
I would happily take Ighalo on a free on a 2 year deal. We need options as our first team is made of glass
Exactly not every signing has to cost £50m plus. He’s a United fan, happy to sit in the bench for cup games.
Ighalo now has 3 goals for the club. Allowed us to rest our starting striker. Has already more than done his job
If he bangs in the winner against the bluenose cheats, he can have the freedom of the city
I like your style
Simply wants more wonga, I'm sure he'll sign eventually.
Interesting, I'm sure it's agent driven more than the player himself because he won't get a better club than Chelsea and will be nothing more than a squad player next season as well
CHO on £180 is excessive.
£180pw is a bit cheap in the age of a PL footballer.
Not surprising after the contract they gave to CHO. Other attacking players who are regulars will be looking to seek parity (at minimum) with that.
That wage for CHO looked mad at the time, they've done an us and put themselves in a bit of a wages conundrum.
Lack of replies to this says it all really. Won't be arsed if he goes.
Not bothered about losing him, but given Inter's reported plans for him he'd be foolish not to take the United deal.
He doesn't deserve a 5 year contract based on his performances. There hasn't been a single game where he's convinced me he's talented enough to be able to make it here.
Hey Jude! You know the drill.
Thought he was basically confirmed at Dortmund, would take him at United no doubt and keeps that youth rebuild ticking over
German media may have jumped the gun on this one. I'm hoping they have..
I think it is pretty normal to go visit those clubs that have an interest in you and then see what they have to offer you. Might just be what they are doing and then make a decision after.
Grealish, Sancho and Bellingham signed before the summer please 
All AMs? We do need a DM as well I’d sayGrealish, Sancho and Bellingham signed before the summer please
DM signed during the summer, no worries. Maybe a cheeky little striker too.
