Just seems to regress every game, thought that world class goal against Arsenal would be the turning point but nope back to what seems like basics. Was never going to hit the obscene heights of the first few months he had but talk about doing a bitcoin surge to a bitcoin drop. He's evidently not a striker / goal scorer but even all round as a player he's just terrible.
Even Craig Smalling (4) for united has got more goals than him in 2018.
What do we do, loan in January to west ham see if he manages to hit some actual form, and then give him another go next season or just sell asap?
And who do we get in, Giroud is competent and decent but not good enough to be #1 really. Dzeko/Icardi/Cavani/Someone else??
Morata what do we do?

Vardy would have been good but we've not even considered him.
I hope we sign Icardi in the summer, that volley vs Spurs convinced me even more

Icardi is the right age too, he's 25 so will get better.
With Dzeko and Cavani, they're short term answers at best.
Not sure Icardi will leave though, he's Inter's captain and will probably stay loyal

Yeah he feels like a bit of a Diego Costa, has moments of craziness in him.

Well Morata doesn't !, <yike s>,he's more of a mummys boy.
Lets get him.

He's a difficult character though which may be what is putting some clubs off.

This. We have a very temperamental squad right now, we got rid of Costa & Courtois which helps and there's a risk Icardi could just invite problems back in. Quality player though.
Just my opinion, but for the money we'd have to shell out on Icardi we might as well pay that little bit extra and try for Dybala instead. He's got more in his locker than Icardi as a complete forward and by the looks of it now is the time to pounce for him as CR7 has made his position problematic.

I'd happily take Icardi next summer and I think he's one that Sarri would very much like to have at the club. Just a question of whether the club will pay the huge sum required.

We're clearly not happy as a club unless we have flop Spanish striker to endlessly persevere with. Surprised it wasn't us who signed Soldado instead of Spudds.

Is Dybala a Striker? I thought he played behind the striker?

He's played as a no.10 for Allegri but more to accomediate Higuain. Played striker for Palermo and has all the skills to do so.
