With all the recent chatter about GK's and CF's, I was wondering if we could arrive at a concencus as to what the clubs priority should be transfer wise this Summer.
Funds are looking tight so for the sake of this excercise, imagine we have a maximum of £150m for 2 players, including sales.
Personally, I'd go for a CF and CM.
Kane and Caicedo would be great.
Transfer priorities
posted on 24/1/23
Look to the Championship for value:
Fwd - Gyokeres from Coventry - Age 25
AM - Ndiaye from Sheff United - Age 23
Plenty of goals already this season for both and ideal ages.
Build for the future obviously and keep bringing the academy youngsters through to blend with the older guys but keep a lookout for the gems, which the above two may be.
There is no need for United to waste money signing players of 30+ years old no matter how prolific they may be. Yes, I do mean Kane who will be 30 at the start of next season.
I am content with the way things are going at the moment and I think the PL is going to be a bit of a rollercoaster ride for the rest of the season.

We wouldn’t get Kane and Caicedo for £150m.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ball Park.
Kane has 1 year left and 30. £85-90m would get him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Brighton would want similar for Caicedo.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I doubt that considering we were said to have agreed £70m for De Jong, but no point arguing. Its hypothetical.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Completely facking irrelevant.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Which 2 positions your priorotising ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No point arguing, it’s hypothetical.

Well, there was a budget of £150m, and those 3 aren't costing £150m, so I'll have all 3 thank you very much.
If there's only going to be 2 signings, then the CM and the RB. I'll shove McTominay up front and pocket the rest of the money myself.

A RB over a CF? Wow.

Yes. I had a poster of Ed. Looked like a plasterers radio after I'd finish.
