Would be proper gutted if it was a case of him being a smoke screen/him being an alternative for SB.

The addition of both would be a huge statement of intent and transform our attack.

Why not? If Son signs we'd still need back-up for Kane. Or do you think we will try for someone else?

SHM is a forward, isn't he? And it's not like we are going to find a direct replacement (aka style of play) for Kane.

Can't see how we could keep all our attacking players happy. So many wouldn't make the match day 18.

Assuming Lamela goes - I think Townsend would need to be leaving too for it to happen or Onomoah and Pritchard would go on loan (which would be a bit annoying)

Leverkusen's contract with LG as their sponsor (in large part due to Son) is set to expire next year. That could be big money for us to grab.


Poor guys. It's too bad they don't have contacts with a big company (say the world's pre-eminent pharmaceutical) to cover that loss :D

But we wouldn't actually be adding any players, in fact, we would be reducing the number.

N'Jie- replacement for Lennon
Son- replacement for Lamela
Berahino- replacement for Soldado and Adebayor

Except that we still have Lennon Lamela and Adebayor. So.....there's that

He's not really a focal point of an attack like Kane is. Berahino can play that role but I think Son is more effective off the striker.

It's 22m in GPB which is what we offered WBA. I can see your logic but he does pay for himself a bit in PR.

I'm scratching my head thinking of any world class footballer, that has ever come from an Asian country.. In general they are not ideally suited to the physical challenge of Premier League..
United had Kagawa who was high profile and failed
