Buying both will probably make our season more successful, but at the cost of not really blooding Mcatee and Bobb and Palmer going on loan at least.

It‘d be interesting to have a poll on where us fans are on winning as much as possible Vs winning slightly less, but with youngsters gaining proper experience.

Especially following the treble.
 
This is more the player we need instead of Paqueta

A player with pace and ability to get beyond the defensive line to feed Haaland by fizzing crosses across the box

Won't lie though, will upset me when this move pushes Palmer out the club (if Paqueta doesn't already do so)
We need additional support in midfield... we needed it going into today... today only further underlined and highlighted that fact.
 
French sources quoting an asking price of €60m, while Gaughan says he’s «valued at more than £30 million». If we get him for less than 40m that’s a very good deal in this market

Belgian source, and most other, say €50-60m, which is will be Rennes record fee.
 
I think more teams will be going man-to-man with us this season as Arsenal and Burnley have. A lot of positives came from Eddy just going route 1 to Erling and Phil. I think with the addition of Doku and his pace it could be a very advantageous situation.
Also with gvardiol , kova , godri and stones to pick up the second ball and lay off to doku or haaland .
 
i think theres a clear misunderstanding about doku in many places, yeah he has an elite first step but hes no brainless pace merchant, he has impecable technique and trickery, the ball looks like its glued to his feet. Hes ambidextrous and as such, can play in both wings, which is also a plus but he is well coached, he will track back and put a shift and reads the game well for his age.

edit - Now, im not saying he is or will be a world beater or anything like that cause his lack of playing (mostly due to injuries) and lack of end product (assists mainly) are a red flag but yeah, his style of play is pretty much that of a modern winger
