Kai has scored more goals than any Utd player this season
Kai has scored more goals than any Utd player this season
Just out of interest, he has scored more goals than quite a few of the 'elite' strikers we have been linked with.... 14 in 30 games. Nobody else has managed a better strike rate as a centre forward under Arteta.
For now, I think we need an extra body, not a replacement.
I agree, p (shocked you now), even if we sign another player I would play Kai at 9 (sorry, red)
I quite like Sesko - possibly because signing him would give me something else to talk to my stunning Slovenian colleague about.
On a related note - you'd be surprised about how popular Allo Allo was in Slovenia
Sounds as though you already have plenty to talk about with her- Good Moaning :hehe:
I know Only Fools and Horses is the most popular programme in Serbia. They named a street after Boycie.....
I like Sesko. From what I have seen he is a better technical fit for us than some of the others. We don't want some great big lump who runs around starting fights (sorry red).
Can't see any of the top ones being available now and I would rather we saved the money to get the guy we actually want in the summer.
Agreed. Having young Ethan is a Godsend.
We were never gonna be able to sign a top drawer player who would have been happy to be Saka's understudy. Yeah, we might have been lucky enough to find a Leo-like player - 28, with experience, fell out with his club so needs to move and is cheap - but he knew he could try to take Gabby M's place.
No-one is gonna take B's. But Ethan at 18 will be happy to cover for B and Odin, he'll get minutes every game, pretty much, and can develop.
Leo/Gabby on RW. Dec and MnM for inside right. Also think, if we need a goal, Kai could play there with Leo up top, and them all interchanging.
But yes, we do need another body, and someone who could play alongside Kai, with Kai either formally at inside right or in a more 4-4-2 with Kai at no.10 and the extra body as his strike partner.
If we play in that manner, the extra body doesn't have to be the big target man like Kai, and that Valuvic or whatever his name is or Sesko who are all big.
Could get a small poacher like Wrighty with pace, skill and deadly finishing ability. Pity that young striker we brought on in the last minute didn't get to touch the ball as he's looked good in the reserves. {Deviant alert.}
Trossard is a rare example of a January signing actually coming in and making an immediate impact in a significant way. Doesn't happen that often. I think we just need someone to help a bit and fill in.
Summer is the crucial window. Some big decisions to make.
