Malinovskyi would be a good choice for that AM role IMO, but I really don't know much about him. I forgot to mention Nico Williams (the Spaniard), seems pretty decent for Spain at RW.It wasn't just kulu, moura was injured too. We did switch to 352 with no rw. Also no am, which we haven't really got at all.
It will be up to conte how he sees us playing.
Maddison has been playing well but for some reason, I can't get around this one. I don't know why I get David Bentley vibes about him, but I'm probably completely wrong there.
We've been linked with Malinovskyi, but I thought he was a player more for the middle like CM/AM?
I can't deny that RW is probably our most pressing need, which really makes me wonder how we got by for so long without Kulu there... excepting Bale as a stop-gap loan for a season. After that, maybe RWB and then a top CB in the summer. I think we'd have a really strong team then that could challenge for next season.
Seen this guy a few times and agree that he looks very useful
Kvaratskhelia is outstanding but would be a LOT of money nowPersonally, I don't believe Rashford is a viable option. Simply too expensive and might consider staying at United if they actually start acting like a real club again. Only clubs like Bayern/Real/Barca (I'm sure they could find another lever to pull) can really attract a high-profile player like that. I also don't think he's been that good but if he plays to his potential, he should be very good.
Other options for winger, either side
Talles Magno
Datro Fofana
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (good with both feet)
These players can play LW or RW, but the first two are right-footed so would play as more traditional wingers/forwards on the right. Khvicha plays for Napoli so won't be cheap but I'm sure he's on Paratici's radar.
Does anyone here have any other recommendations or comments? Or are we going to keep linking Traore?
Others here have mentioned Olise... this might be the safest choice of all the options and I'd be happy with that too. Left-footed so would theoretically be able to cut in from the right wing like Kulu does.
Levy approves. How much per letter?Seen this guy a few times and agree that he looks very useful

Paratici wanted him before
Doku has been mentioned on here. The 20-year-old who's playing for Belgium. With their stock low now, might be a good time to move for him. Clearly talented and quick.
He's a strange one. He was considered a wonderkid during the Euros but almost 2 years later he is still on the bench for Belgium while they continue to start the old, experienced players who are clearly past it. I don't know what his club form is like but he has got something about him. I like the idea of bringing in young, talented players but I think Conte and Paratici are aware that anyone we bring in at the moment needs to be proven to improve the first team though
He's far better than Bentley was, no doubt he's a good player but also something massively unlikeable about him - seems far too arrogant.
Replacing who?
I actually think someone like Doku is just what we need. All to prove. Fit, fast, hungry. A bit like Kulu.

I like him.
He deserves all the praise and honour he receives.Kudus from Ghana looks lively
What about Rashford as Kulusevski's cover?
Impressive in all 3 gamesKudus from Ghana looks lively
Toxic club in spiral of decline, and shortish contractIn which reality do you think Rashford would want to join us from Utd, or that they would consider selling him?
