It was very weird the other night the way we only started crossing into the box when Llorente went off. May need to rethink that for United.

Depends how it would have been sold to him by Poch.

Son plays the 9 role in a similar way to Chicharito so don't see how he would offer much.

Llorente is good in the air and can hold the ball up. Main question is whether we can adapt to his lack of mobility.

I have minor doubts over Llorente but believe he is a good option.

I can't have a sensible conversation with someone who says don't buy chicharito as a second striker because we've got son. Soz.

Apology accepted, if you haven't seen Son play well for us up front or for South Korea then I don't know what you've been watching.

If Chicharito is so good he wouldn't have gone to West Ham.

Mate there’s no need for the tone. You’ve actually offered a far more controversial opinion than he had and I don’t see anyone talking to you with such disrespect.

Nothing wrong with the tone of my post. Bowed out of the convo without slinging ad-hominems.

Don't need faux righteous lectures. Cheers thanks. (y)

If you asked, I’d say 70-80% of neutrals would rather start Son up front than Chicharito. It’s hardly a controversial opinion.

Personally I'd rather play Llorente up front but if we want a quicker number 9 not looking to hold the ball up then I see no benefit to Chicharito over Son.
