Harry Kane

Thanks for expanding, I hear you. We only have to look across town at Pogba to see what we'd be letting ourselves in for. It's a real pity.

Personally I think people get far too invested in single transfers. I've seen it year on year on Bluemoon and it is very rare that the players we miss out on goes on to have the impact that they are supposed to have. I keep referring to this because it is probably the best example. We signed Gundo the summer Pogba went to United and some people on here had a minor meltdown because Pogba was the only player on the planet who could replace Yaya. In football things just don't work like that.

Haaland won't stop us continuing to win PL titles regularly or get to the latter stages of the CL regularly. Missing out on a player is irrelevant when you're run as well as we are and you have a squad as good as ours.

I’m sure he has but for me he’s one level below the top level. Too chunky, too clunky.

Yep agree.

It’s been going on awhile. Check his thread. These people are in for a surprise

Lukaku has some weaknesses but he will score a lot of goals. It's almost a certainty that Chelsea are going to mount a challenge for the title.

But if we play with a centre-forward who that centre-forward is is key.

Couldn’t disagree more have you watched Grealish much I know he takes players on but his short passing is immaculate Kane and Aguero are similar players to both finishers so not much changes for me

I really dislike using stats to prove a point but the contrast is quite stark

Grealish pass completion is 78.5% last season in the PL Bernardos was 89.4%

Grealish was in the top 1% of the players in the league for making progressive passes Bernardo wasn't even in the top half.

I'm not saying he doesn't have the ability to play short passes and keep things ticking over to give us more control, but we've paid £100m for the lad I'm presuming it's because we like what we see and we want him taking risks and creating things rather than completely changing his game.

If we are ceeding that control surely we need someone clinical on the end of the chances.

It's been four years since he played for a proper PL team. His record at Inter suggests he's come a very long way since then.

All the same, the only time he ever looked decent in the prem was when he was a big fish at Everton. I think he is a more rounded player now and he already knows Chelsea, but let’s just say I’d much rather we signed Kane than Lukaku.

The rags also signed mkhitaryan who was the bundersliga player of the year when we signed Silky Ilky

"Lukaku isn't a great striker" has got to be a new low for ridiculous things I've read on this forum. I'll come back to this at the end of the season when he's holding the Golden Boot in the air at Stamford Bridge.

That open goal miss against Italy was horrific though, and it's probably one of the few times most people in here watched him.

Just a lame joke based on this picture of him as a kid that did the rounds:

You wouldn't have got me in a Rag shirt for any event, he was an Arsenal fan on the quiet.

Truth hurts

If I go anywhere near red I come out in a rash

Not a chance I would where a Rag shit
