Cristiano Ronaldo

So you think Kane would be ok not being an automatic starter?

He would start in most games, and when he was playing, he'd get enough goalscoring chances to beat his previous hauls.

Yes he'd bang in the goals, but he doesn't fit in our system as he doesn't do enough off the ball. We need someone who presses, is selfless and is OK not being an automatic starter

If we don't get Kane, then I'd rather we wait a year and go all-in for Haaland. Last season we were dominant with false nines, and Sterling, Torres & Jesus can all do a top job in the centre

Only issue I have with that is almost every top club will be going for haaland and he has shown no indication that city is his first choice.

Mendes is apparently confident this is done by the weekend in that article. has he ever failed to get his players a move?

You'd almost have to play Foden and Jesus as wingers if you had him just for the legs in the press. But as a player who could come off the bench and head goals in for fun, with Kev swinging balls into the box, I could think of worse options.

If we can't get Kane, as a plan B Ronaldo, Vlahovic, Torres and Delap sounds pretty decent to me.

I’m not entirely sure he’d be joining us to act as a plan B off the bench when we turn into Stoke…

TBF, he hasn’t indicated that anyone is his first choice.. There is lots of press speculation (today apparently the Rags are “in the drivers seat”) but as far as I know there has been nothing from Haaland’s camp.

Didn't think he was good in the Euros from my viewing, most of his goals were penalties, he's elderly and needs a Zimmer to get round the pitch.

Well there's at least 8 goals we would have for starters.

Every day in the Sun (what is their obsession with Ronaldo?) there are numerous photos of Ronaldo and/or his missus posing on a beach or a yacht. Given their lifestyle it’s hard to see them wanting to trade that for Manchester.

it’s a good story but I just can’t see it happening.

Now watch it happen …..
