Important to note that Plea has 81 Acceleration, 83 Sprint Speed and 81 Strength on FIFA. Dreamy.

Reminds me of Remy. Strong and fast but no knees. Could do a job, but don't think hes worth the risk.
According to WhoScored he played 25 games as striker last season and 16 forward left. I am assuming he will be our Kane back up but with more flexibility than Janssen or Llorente to keep him fit and game ready? Although I’ve never seen him play so don’t know if he could cut it as CF in the PL

Is this a case of plea bargaining?

I’m guessing this is legit, but how far would Levy go with smokescreen to try and put pressure on United?

The injury was poorly timed right in the middle of what otherwise might have been considered two 'breakout' seasons. That said, he has not faced, or scored, against much quality opposition. Four goals against Guingamp should be more of a red flag than a medal.
If this was a 'flyer' signing at a low price....like N'Koudou, frankly...who Poch saw as a squad player with potential who could be loaned out if we were able to bring in Martial, then it might make some sense. I wouldn't mind seeing Plea with a team like Newcastle and a manager like Benitez for a season, particularly with Atsu's loan ending.
The problem for me would be if Plea is the best quality we're able to recruit in an attacker this summer. That would be a tremendous disappointment after multiple summers missing on top forward targets.
And yes, saving money for a great central midfielder would be nice. Color me skeptical on that one and/or wake me up when Poch has his arm around SMS or Kovacic.

Going on recent history I suspect you’re right. If it’s true we are in for him of course. Very brave.

I think you have to judge this one in the context of our whole transfer window.
If we get him and a top class midfielder you'd say he was an astute buy to provide cover in a couple of positions but if we're not going to strengthen the midfield properly then for sure you'd say it was underwhelming.

I think you’re being very generous calling that a pun.
Unfortunately IMO, this one looks like the most likely of all our rumours.
We normally sign a player out of nowhere.
He is cheap and most likely an alternative to Martial. And I don't think this is a "smokescreen". As I understand United don't want to sell him to us. So if we have an alternative that's great for them, if they want to sell him he will have to go somewhere else.
