If we are looking at a striker when Archer leaves, it will likely be an older player, maybe even someone 30+ to come in and be backup to Ollie. Ollie is the main man and will start nearly all games when fit.
The Barca PR machine in full swing in these last days of the window it would seem. Our name being used as we have a Spanish manager and sporting Director, and according to Spanish media we have "unlimited money". File under bollocks, and move on.
Would like to have kept him, would have been a decent back up option. But if he wants to move for his career, then no issues whatsoever. Sell him with a buy back and slap on a sell on clause as well.
You must have watched a lot of him to come to that conclusion?
He has a near identical goal + assist ratio per 90 as our boy Jack did at similar age in the Championship.
Going to be an interesting battle for CL, a lot of teams in with a shout.
But all the talk of the likes of Chelsea and Liverpool having one bad year last season and they will be back; they both look extremely average so far, United as well.
I don't think we will be that far behind these teams.
