Don Pacifico -- I don't know a ton about him, just stumbled across him and saw articles they're looking for a January loan (to get him minutes).

Doubt they want to sell, so the option to buy would be exuberant.

Looks talented though.

    Kudus is class and would allow us to rest Odegaard, or Saka. Could even use Saka on the left when he plays on the right.

    That said I’m not sure it’s the best use of funds since we have Nwaneri who can cover Odegaard though perhaps not Saka.

    Still better to go out get a scary food left sided attack or a goal machine up top.

    So back to Nico Williams, Kvaratskhelia, Leao for the left or Gyokeres, Sesko, or Isak upfront

    I have all my usual names.. Isak, Williams, Kvara etc. who I favor.

    But the guy I think we can go and get for a good price and impact this January is Marmoush. Very rarely see guys who I feel will just make it. He has a few attributes I just love. He always wants to go forward- and he receives the ball with the forward motion in mind, a bit like Partey. But then unlike Partey he has acceleration and speed to get away from markers. And he can finish in a variety of ways. This is the Saka balance.

    lorddulaarsenal I would be annoyed if an already stacked Pool got him, or they got him as an early replacement for Salah. He’s a very good player.

      He is a Salah regen. Highly productive and direct. We need to get him.

      I think we should activate Gyokeres release clause in January. Come the summer he is definitely going to United.

        Clrnc if he’s open to moving, yeah. I used to have concerns about his late burst, but two seasons deep, he’s allayed my fears. Plus we just need another body up front. Jesus, Trossard and Sterling have terribly underperformed this year. They’re all much better than whatever has transpired. I’d put Lord Dula in their place, they’re that bad

          Loan with option to buy please....

            JazzG -- you think we can promise Brighton that he'd get minutes?

              I don't think we should be purely loaning him, we should be buying him. Either straight purchase or loan with option/obligation to buy.

              He'd be a great player to fill in for Kai and eventually replace him if things went well. Very capable of doing the same work but has better off the ball positioning around the box.

              Only worry is the inability to stay fit. I am guessing that is why they want to loan him so he can hopefully stay fit and get into a regular rhythm.

              New Red Devils boss Ruben Amorim sent scouts to watch 17-year-old Portugal U21s winger Geovany Quenda, 26-year-old Sweden striker Viktor Gyokeres and Portugal winger Pedro Goncalves, 26, play for Sporting against Arsenal on Tuesday. (Mail - subscription required)

              I struggle to believe this for a multitude of reasons. I'm sure as hell not paying for that Mail subscription!
