i love rose but

buy RS
swap rose for martial

benefits us more overall.

the only other better situation is if they allow us to buy martial , which is pretty much impossible imo
I would prefer to keep rose and add a pacey forward our full backs are pivotal to the way we play, they provide the width and pace to get beyond the opposition.

Not sure why people keep suggesting ambiguity in the 'game changer' ITK.
If it doesn't mean an exciting player that for whatever reason we would've considered unobtainable, then it's an extremely poor choice of wording imo, especially considering two ITKs have used it, and I'm not the kind to get all giddy and unrealistic in transfer windows.

Saying that we'll probably sign that centre forward who was banging them in for England ladies in the Euros.

Personally I'd only sell Rose if it meant Sessegnon in this transfer window which looks unlikely.

If we did perchance secure him earlier than expected then i'd have no qualms dealing with Utd for Rose/Martial transfer.

I love the "if this were football manager what you guys would do instead?" thread :rolleyes:

I swear some people don't actually watch football, only the transfers. There is not a chance in hell Mourinho is letting him go after today. And again, Hercules said "don't just focus on him" in the player thread.

Exactly which is why I'm all for keeping rose I don't want to lose him and have every faith that levy will deliver on this.

Ali Z must have been hibernating since the window opened and he's come out more prolific than Trump on Twitter. Go Ali!!

I'd keep Rose and get a RWB. Don't want to freeze Sonny out and Lamela will be like a new £80m signing in this market. Assuming Barkley is one of the 2 it has to be a RB.

They might go fuck it and do Martial aswell but that jeopardises Rose potentially.

Seems like Ali Z is still missing a player compared to other ITK. I think Aurier is a target and it seems quite clear that we want a forward too. I think we're potentially looking at Foyth, Gazzaniga, Barkley, Aurier and a forward. Whether they will all come off I don't know but I don't think I'd expect us to complete them all without some outgoings.

Maybe that is why aurier is being looked at possibly.

Yesterday Igijedi replied this when asked why we didn't announce Sanchez with Rose googling him.

We planned to do it but…

There's definitely something in that I think but it just got passed by cos we had so much to talk about. Maybe Rose is on the way out this window (as JJ said was possible) and we know it's not Chelsea, which leaves manure ....and Martial :)

igijedi rated your post funny though

With the gamechanger theories, it may be super hush-hush so we don't get gazzumped.

Classic ITK spelling and punctuation there.

I always imagine they are no-look typing under the desk whilst DL provides an update on our business!

Either that or they haven't been doing their English school homework in their Mother's basements.

dont know if itk or opinion
atlanta yid on martial:
no chance
Whether itk or not, it sounds like common sense. United aren't going to sell a good player to us, he'd cost a fortune, and he's just scored for them again. He isn't going anywhere.
