The problem with strengthening the false 9 position is managers are smart and will work you out in the long run. You need more options and a completely new system so you can’t be worked out. It’s why Liverpool got beat a lot more this year teams worked them out. So bringing in a Kane leaves managers guessing, trying to work out the new system.

I don’t know how they can afford Kane, Sancho is going to cost 80 to 100 mil , they also want a new keeper and they just resigned Cavani on a big wage.Yeah I noticed that myself seemingly Duncan castles has also said United are pushing for Kane. As much as I wanted it to be it was never going to be straightforward. Hopefully Kane only has eyes for us and is not tempted by the money as If he goes there they will be real contenders next season
Enjoy it. Perfect Pep type player
Passing
Hold up play
Lethal finishing
Link up play
Heading ability
Settled private life
It’s Pep’s dream signing I reckon, he’s always loved Kane judging by past comments

I don’t even see how they can afford sancho this summer? He isn’t even someone they need to be honest! They are cash strapped at the minute and without question need at least one more CB and another RB.

Also let's not pretend we've scored shitloads of goals under this system. We usually score around 100 goals. This season, we're still in the 70s.The problem with strengthening the false 9 position is managers are smart and will work you out in the long run.

When has that ever stopped them? He's a typical Utd signing. Big name that gets them headlines and cements their place as a "massive club" while preventing them from addressing any actual weaknesses in the squad.I don’t even see how they can afford sancho this summer?

Again you are right and I was talking about now, not 2 seasons ago. We don't have Sane any more and Mahrez has been playing instead of Sterling. So for the way we play right now with less counters and more possession Kane would work.
It could see us returning to Sterling’s strengths too - double whammy. Somebody up top who can spot those runs he makes other than KDB.

If Lille win tonight he might be available........
Maybe but he‘s no longer an option for Spuds.
I would imagine they will target one of Kane or sancho rather than both. They also seemingly want a cb. Watching from afar I would say rw and cb are their biggest weaknesses so i hope the reports are incorrect this morning and we have boxed off kaneI don’t know how they can afford Kane, Sancho is going to cost 80 to 100 mil , they also want a new keeper and they just resigned Cavani on a big wage.

adds to the debts though? Greenwood needs a run of games and even James has looked good at times this season? Plus martial, rashford? They also borrowed £175m from the government didn’t they ?

personally i have to agree. people speak of it so glowingly but forget we've won the league on the back of a solid defense rather than being unstoppable going forward. a striker will go a long way towards solving thatFalse nine has been a significant downgrade from our usual system. We've won the league in spite of not playing a striker, not because of it. Adding one of the top five goal scorers in the world can only be a good thing.

Great Post. We are god knows how many goals down from previous seasons. Baffling how people can turn their noses up at Kane who will guarantee 30 goals a season for the next 3 or 4 years.False nine has been a significant downgrade from our usual system.

Personally I would prefer to save £50m for emergencies and buy Bamford or even Jiminez instead.

I could see this going the same way as Sanchez. He wants to come to us but the rags will desperately try to keep themselves relevant and throw more money at kane and levy to get him to the swamp then they can say he snubbed us. It’s fucking pathetic but it’s how they operate these days
The difference is with them they will probably get £30m+ for lingard plus and good price for degea if they sell a keeper someone would probably pay good money for phil fucking Jones where as us £15m for jack Harrison if he was on utds books be again £30mI would imagine they will target one of Kane or sancho rather than both. They also seemingly want a cb. Watching from afar I would say rw and cb are their biggest weaknesses so i hope the reports are incorrect this morning and we have boxed off kane

The Utd way = We will pay you a lot of money to kick up a fuss and come to us.
I can believe that tbh. Classy stuff. The issue is you silly red sods he wants a club who are already doing the business at the very top, you chaps are not that, he isn't after money as much as he is trophy's. Carry on though, i enjoy seeing you lot with egg on your face.
