Isn't Gakpo and Diaz both better in that position?

We only need to be concerned about selling players whom can't be replaced. A healthy Isak, Sandro, Id throw Hall in there too. It's not that I actively want to sell Gordon, I just recognise we aren't owned by Ashley anymore and player trading on our terms is the way to go.

Depends on the significance of significant I suppose

I’d revert back to our usual formation for this. Murphy and Barnes either side of Isak if he’s fit - Osula if he isn’t (never happening). Would also go Miley in the middle over Willock as they’ll likely sit in and Miley is better at keeping the ball moving. They’re hard to beat under Moyes but I can’t see anything other than us getting it done.

It wouldn't be ideal, but a significant step back is a bit of a stretch given we'd likely only sell assuming we had someone else lined up (unless he requests to leave after he's told Liverpool want him and our hands are tied)

Yeah but I think it does say something when you sell your top young players. Like, I wouldn't want to replace him with 2 Brighton-style spreadsheet players just because of PSR. Unless we have to, obviously.

Willock may be on his way, wasn't Palace mentioned earlier.

Well from that POV I'm not against selling anyone. I know the money would be invested in any event. But I still think we can have a view on which players we would rather keep/use.

I'm not one wanting to sell him, but I agree with roca - we can be quite sure any money received would be for a good purpose. So we don't need to think in terms of steps back.

Would be more concerned if it meant willock and Barnes are that sides wing options if we chose to gamble on not getting an out and out replacement.

Still have Barnes as the No1 and allow us to grab a couple of decent players who may improve over him, if not already there

This is surely not right

Reminder if we sell him we get to reinvest the money. I'm not at all concerned about selling him personally.

It would be a significant step back IMO, we're talking about one of England's most promising young players here.

Friday night. SORTED.

Think we’d be stupid to sell. Too many other priorities.

Chelsea and Liverpool interested in him, according to Mark Douglas.

If a cartel club was in for Sandro he wouldn't have joined us. Lets not kid ourselves.

Isak will start anyway so we don't need to worry about this.

That's the one

Ramsey ?

When Isak is playing. I know what you are saying, and in theory it's true. But really they need to just do it in one game on Sunday. Everton's main defenders are out so that should help, but we need Gordon, Murphy and Barnes to be ready to pick the ball up and run it into the net if necessary. No sitting back and hoping someone else will do it.

One of chelsea or forest can't finish above us unless u are talking about unrealistic scoreline to cover the gd. I really wish united to win europa league so they are motivated enough to finish the season in high infront of crowd with a win against villa cause I just can't shake off a feeling of a surprise loss to everton from my head

Think there were some add ons if they made CL.

Of course Isak would be a massive blow but a sample size of 4 is nothing. Can other players in our team score a goal? Yes they can and they have plenty of times.
