Whole thing doesn't make sense, they sell Dybala and Kean n exchange for Lukaku. That's awful business.

This ones a bit annoying actually. He’s the player I wanted us to replace Eriksen with (slightly different positions), but thought we’d have no chance and Juve would never sell. Then the links came up last week and I stupidly got excited! Now if he goes to bloody Utd in a swap for that donkey I’d be gutted because it shows he was available.

Inter want Dzeko and Lukaku? THats almost as confusing as Juve wanting Lukaku! Have they no strikers at all?
No Ill stand by it. Kane is the forgotten world class player.
I think Ceballos has strengthened them a decent amount. He and Torreitra at CM should be a step up.
Pepe? Majoring in the minors for me. Their attack was the least of their worries, and if they have strengthened it it hardly takes the team up a notch.
Yes been after lakaku and Dzeko since conte arrived.
They can't get rid of Icardi due to the baggage.

I actually like Dzeko, or at least I used to, no idea where his form is these days

He's decent but 33.

Is Dybala better than Son?
Serious question because I’m not convinced myself

Im more interested in where Dybala would play.
Completely open to correction - not a player Im especially familiar with - but I get the impression he plays best centrally.
So would be behind Kane?
That being the case, what of Alli? Or Eriksen? (or Lo Celso who seems a most likely Eriksen replacement)

Man Utd's Paulo Dybala transfer could be scuppered by contract clause
Manchester United have opened talks with Juventus over a potential swap deal involving Romelu Lukaku
Manchester United's swoop for Paulo Dybala could be in doubt over the Argentine's wage demands.
United have opened talks with Juventus over a move for Dybala, which could see Romelu Lukaku move in the opposite direction.
The two clubs are some way off reaching an agreement but both are eager to strike a deal before the transfer window close.
But the move is likely to hinge on Dybala agreeing to a move to Old Trafford.
The Sun reports the move could now be in doubt after talks began over wages.
Dybala is only likely to leave Juventus for United if he is offered a hefty pay rise.
And that is not in line with what is happening with the rest of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's squad at Old Trafford.
It is claimed some members of the United squad suffered a drop in wages after failing to qualify for the Champions League last season.
But Dybala will demand the same salary despite playing in the Europa League at Old Trafford.
The uncertainty over Dybala could see Inter Milan reignite their interest in Lukaku, having led the race for his signature throughout the summer.
The Belgian was left out of the squad for the pre-season clash with Kristiansunds and boss Solskjaer wanted a resolution over the Belgian's future.
Inter have had a £54m bid rejected for Lukaku and suggested United were pricing him out of a move, before talks began over a sensational swap deal for Dybala.
United would be reluctant to let the Belgian depart unless they can bring in a replacement before the transfer window closes on August 8.

I find it hard to believe Utd wont pay stupid wages, just look at the deal Rashford got a month ago....

You would assume so, but imagine if he wants parity with Pogba, De Gea, Sanchez etc to play in the UEFA league … I am sure that they can afford it but it may cause a lot more unrest in the locker room with other players wanting parity too.

Possibly.
Though I suspect they are all massively over paid, and used to the like of sanchez earning a fortune for nothing.
I find it hard to believe wage demands would be a deal breaker at Utd
If they can't match wages we have no chance imo

Andy Thompson
Agreed, unless he is demanding a EUROPA bonus!
He is more a all out AM/2nd striker from my understanding.
If we were to buy Dybala and/or Lo Celso, Dele is the one that will have to up his game or risk his place.

Lo Celso looks to me more like a CM than AM, and seems to indicate a switch to 4-3-3 IMO. Something along the lines of
..............Winks
...NDombele......Lo Celso
Moura...................Son
...............Kane
Which probably puts Alli on rotation on the left, depending on who is LB.
Dybala though seems to point more to a 4-2-3-1, playing in the 3.
All options I guess, cant be a bad thing
Options and depth ..
- despite the complaints, I don't worry about our first team (think N'Dombele fixed a huge gap) outside of RB.
It's depth, a good year with minimum injuries and we can do well, something like last year will be difficult to manage

I'm not really worried about the coming season either, but getting players in that can cover for and in the long term replace players that are likely leaving sooner rather than later (like Toby, Eriksen and Rose) now rather than next summer would be a smart move, in my opinion. Every football club needs new bodies in, we all know that, and signing only one player per window isn't really sustainable, unless you plan on bringing through a whole lot of youngsters from the academy. Hopefully we'll keep on bringing through our share of talents, but we can't rely on them alone. We need some fresh blood in. Lo Celso and Sessegnon would be a great start, and if we got an RB in as well, I'd be well happy. No point in moaning at this point, in my opinion. I'm a bit worried as well, but I don't see any reason to hit the panic button.

They're not done yet, though. Tierney will likely join this week, taking spending past the 150m mark. That does address an area of priority.
There is some value in judging transfer outlay - because it shows how much a team is willing to invest in improving. Whether it's an area of comparative strength or comparative weakness, the money spent is an indicator of ambition. This has been true from the beginning.
They have spent 150m while in the Europa League. We are sitting on our hands waiting for prices to drop after making just one signing - a replacement for a key player we sold six months ago. And this, after reaching the Champions League final.
The hope at the beginning of the summer was that we would do a Liverpool- move aggressively to secure our targets, pay what it takes and get them done early.
Dybala would have fit into that level of aggressiveness and ambition. But we aren't prepared to do that yet. Thus, he is unrealistic for us - and the fact that we reached the final means nothing in this case.

Every club does this. Even we do this. It isn't particularly unusual. We were receiving money for Bale in 2018, and paying for Soldado at the same time.
