RVP leaving upsets me a bit, but needs to happen. Thanks for that brilliant season in 2012/13 Robin!

We must be in for a striker now. God knows who. Probably Huntelaar or De Jong :lol:

I am a bit sad if Robin goes, he has given us some exquisite moments while he's been here.
 


Have to say, this is excellent. I appreciate your service Robin, but we need to move on and your leaving is the only way to do that.

It also signals intent. 300K a week off the wage bill, we'll definitely be signing a striker. Hopefully Lacazette (Benzema would be even better, but that's ultimate muppet stuff).

Agree, and shows despite what some fans reckoned last year, VG IS ruthless when it comes to the best for the team.

This is his national team's captain he' shipping off if true.

£12m a year saving on his wages!
 
This is so open to interpretation.

I'm not negotiating with anyone at Madrid over a new contract?
Who knows, he was cornered on the way to a wedding. They also asked if he'll be staying at Madrid and he stayed silent.
 
So we currently need a Striker,CB ,RB ,CM(2 as per Caf) and possibly a keeper with 1 month left for the season to start , not at all an ideal situation.
 
Rooney is the only genuine striker that we have unless LvG expects Adnan to shift to a striker role. Wilson is inexperienced. He Needs a loan. Chicharito is injured till August so we can't check his abilities during the tour as well. Unless will Keane or lingard is seen as a striker I think we need at least 2 strikers
 
if RVP goes a beneteke/lacazette or icardi up and coming stiker makes so much sense.

No point in buying a cavani/benzema type and benching them for rooney or playing them out of position.

I think greizman would be a good choice as he can play on the wings and as a forward.
 
I think Fellaini will take a spot as striker. Rooney, [new signing], Wilson, Fellaini.

EDIT: Plus Hernandez if he stays.
 
Another striker (for big money) will likely mean Rooney not playing as striker. Pretty sure nobody wants to see that.

There's only one striker position in the team and I'm very comfortable with Rooney being our main striker and Wilson filling in occasionally.

The depressing thing is that this is probably where its heading.

2 weeks ago we were linked with sensible signings like Schneiderlin and Otamendi
Last week we moved onto unnattainable but still good targets like Schweinsteiger and Ramos
Next week it will be Claise, Huntelaar
The week after we'll announce we're not buying anyone and we'll all be pining for the average Dutch guys we were linked with
 
I think Fellaini will take a spot as striker. Rooney, [new signing], Wilson, Fellaini.

EDIT: Plus Hernandez if he stays.
I think that we'll play with a single striker, and while Fellaini can play as a second striker, I doubt that he can play as a main striker.

I would have been reasonably happy only with Rooney, Hernandez and Wilson but with Hernandez being out for 2-3 months, it would not be wise starting the season only wit Rooney and Wilson. An injury to Rooney and we might have a very bad start to the season.

No idea why we didn't go for Vietto. Cheap, very good and world class potential. Now I hope that we can do something for Lacazzette but with PSG being able to spend again, I doubt it. Which leaves only Kane, but Spurs would ask for a lot of money for him and he yet might be just an one-season wonder.

If we're going 4-3-3, Griezmann would be an excellent choice.

We need another striker of some sort, or someone who can play along the front. Rooney will lose form/get injured/get suspended at some point. Wilson looked the kid he is when he did play and did absolutely nothing for the England U-20's during the summer, couldn't even get in the side. Don't want to have any long spells of Fellaini up front as you know how we will play when he does.

Yep, that is why I thought that a move for Vietto/Dybala made perfect sense. They wouldn't expect to start each game, can play in other positions (especially Dybala) and are already good enough to cover for Rooney.

No idea at all why we didn't go for one of them. Lacazzette is a bit similar but he is a couple of years older and might not like sitting at bench for many games. Same for Kane,considering that if he reads the papers he might think that he's the best player of all time.
