I’m concerned this Delap deal won’t be a repeat of the Hojlund mistake. Manchester United is not Ipswich or Hull City.

Delap is better than Hojlund and half the price. Ideally though, we should get someone better than Delap in addition to Delap and then offload Hojlund.

MRTA7:
If we did that we would have to also get rid of Zirkzee surely?

Zirkzee can be a good bench option as a left 10 in Amorim's 3-4-3. Cunha to start and Zirkzee on the bench. He can be a 3rd option CF if the first 2 options can't play.

MRTA7:
So assuming, we get Delap, Cunha, Mbeumo. Sell Holjund. You think Zirkzee will get an enough playing time? considering, we'll still have Mount,Bruno, Amad who can do a job there (assuming Garnacho is gone).

MRTA7:
Cunha, Mbeumo and Delap would definitely be an interesting regeneration of the attack.

Only time will tell if it'll be good.

I would not sell Bruno for £100m but I would not be upset if the club decided to do it.

Amad does not play on the left. He will most likely play RWB if we get Mbeumo. Or compete with him for right 10. Either way he and Mbeumo will be in the right side and won’t impact the team selection on the left side.

Bruno will either be one of the 2 CMs or will be gone for 100m.

Mount is the difficult one. He is the one who might challenge Zirkzee for the substitute role in the left 10 position.

Garnacho is gone. The club are willing to sell him and he himself sounds tired of the on and off love. He is also our 2nd best route to raising funds after the Bruno offer from Saudi.

Star CF, Delap, Amad, Mbeumo, Cunha, Zirkzee, Mount.
7 players for 3 positions is not a bad idea considering the possibility of injuries.

The 4 new players will be replacing Rashford, Sancho, Antony, Garnacho, Hojlund (5 players).

Leyqute:
The two of them are very similar. Delap looks more or less like Hojlund just before we bought him— unproven but decent potential.

The difference is the price. Hojlund’s was a rip off while 30m for Delap doesn’t look that bad. Hindsight will always be 20/20

MRTA7:
Interesting but I would be shocked if we went for another 9 along with Delap if we get him.

Let's not forget there's someone in goal that we have to do our best to replace this summer.

afrodoc2:
I am talking about the eye test and not the stats. Delap is stronger and holds up the play better. His touch looks better as well. He is also half the price of Rasmus.

Even if he flops it will be a 35m mistake not a 75m one. Ideally, we need a more established no 9 but i am not sure the obvious options will come to us now with no UCL football.

Leyqute:
How are you sure Hojlund doesn’t have those attributes too before he came to Man Utd?

How are you sure Delap’a hold up play and other skills won’t disappear too when he dons the red shirt?

My point is that Delap isn’t that much different from Hojlund before he came. Why will his case be different?

Oasis007:
......kinda sceptical with the deal as well. Osimhen over Delap and Gyokeres for me.

.......how true?!

Panther7:
Very true, credible sources have confirmed it.

Leyqute:
Sharp

TrebleChamp:
Sharp now ooh but when he suddenly turn shit (God forbid) playing for us, you will blame the board for wasting £62.5m on a player from Wolves..

odizeey:
Wait, let me back down.
You said Hodjlund was not being served. I told you the one Amad scored, was it not serving that resulted to it.
You now turned a round of amala saying you were talking about the wing-backs.

You have to choose a hustle. Is Hodjlund not served or is it Dorgu you want to shit on as usual?

Because the way una dey take argue for this board dey muzz me sometimes.

Mrviktor:
bruno played d ball, bruno is the plan B from the 3-5-2 formation,

what is dorgu doing, how many assist does dorgu have under amori, how many does garnacho have, mount, mazz, amad.

3-5-2 isnt working, he should just accept it and move on
