When I talk about things like this, people think I like talking shit about Manchester United, but they simply haven't learnt a thing despite been in this shit for such a long time. How does a club keep on doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting a different result?
Mbuemo is a 25-year-old attacker who has only scored 20 goals a season once in his career, yet they're ready to pay anything to get him? In a position, they already have Amad? Don't get me wrong, Mbuemo is a good player, but is he really worth all that? The people at the club really need to better when it comes to negotiating for players. They did the same with Antony, Hojlund and many other signings.
They seem too desperate for a player who is not world-class, and the parent club senses that desperation and demands they pay a certain amount. This is a very bad way to do business.
Let me say a few thing that could make you think otherwise for Mbuemo.
Mbuemo is an right wing attacker, tested and proven in the EPL, clinical finish if he plays in a club that create opportunities, he has strength and like you said an attacker.. not a striker that will give you almost 20 goals in a season. Manchester United almost went to relegation last season, look at their strengthen no big player will want to come to the club, so I dont know what you expect a world class player. Do you know how much a club will demand if a world class player agrees to move to Manchester United? What they need is exactly current EPL players that can push them up in the table next season, not one they are testing.
I don't know why people keeping thinking that a club must sign big players before they'll succeed, I love your reply to his statement, so because Manchester United has Amad they shouldn't increase their depth? United's problem last season was lack of goals, they began playing good football after a while when Amorim came in but the attackers couldn't often find the net which caused a big issue last season, now they've signed Cunha and are about to sign Mbeumo and both players g/a is more than 40 or close to if am not mistaken yet people are still complaining, who said Manchester United won't sign a top 9 after Mbeumo? Also I think they're forgetting than Amad has been used in the right wing-back under Amorim and he excelled in that position. Imagine Cunha, Mbeumo, Bruno, Amad and a good 9 in the starting 11, that's a huge upgrade.
