Still need a striker, obviously - but Cunha and Mbeumo had a combined 35 goals and 14 assists in the PL last season. Should improve our dire attack a bit.
Yeah, but United's Priority #1 is still to jettison the very, very expensive ne'erdowells.

Barcelona are advancing with a move to sign Marcus Rashford from Manchester United. Barcelona have made an offer via intermediaries to loan Rashford next season and the proposal includes an option to buy.

The 27-year-old wants the move and the idea has been agreed to by United and although it is not yet a done deal, talks between all parties are now at the final stages.

I can't believe he actually gets his move to Barcelona. Incredible. Sucks that it's just another loan, but that's what happens when mediocre players are on outrageous wages. It is what it is.

I just want to take a second to appreciate the greatness of Lord Ornstein, miles ahead of that engagement baiter Fabrizio.

Barcelona must be pretty desperate. It'll be interesting to see the details, United want him off the books and away from the training ground but are likely only to get 1 of those things. I dont see Barca coughing up his £325k/wk.
