Random Task
WW Lynchpin
It is nice to see local lads in the team definitely but I didn't really consider it that way. My thinking was purely based on the fact that with Harry Kane in our side next season we would take a massive step toward challenging for the title
Of course, in reality, I would love to see us buy a top striker and allow Rashford time to develop
Which is very likely to happen at some stage during the summer. Rashford, as talented as he is, cannot be relied upon to spearhead an attack that will be challenging on 4 fronts next season. Jose has made no effort to hide the fact that a world class striker is a top priority, it's simply a matter of who is available. Belotti, Greizemann, Kane? Take your pick, but of the three mentioned, Belloti strikes me as a the player most likely to succeed in a Jose-type setup - big, strong, good in the air, eye for goal etc also likely to adapt quickly to the prem given his characteristics. Kane is a potential target but Levy, being the stubborn old goat that he is, would take us to the cleaners if we went after him, pushing a £100m+ no doubt and I don't like the idea of bank rolling an already dangerous Spurs team. I haven't seen enough of Greizemann this season to make a judgement, though the Cafe seems to rave about him so take their word I guess.
Neymar? Now we're talking.
