I like this one. Much better than being held to ransom by Real for Morata. Maybe this will teach them a lesson -- they miss out on a payday, are unable to spend that money, and now have a pissed asset on their hands.

I agree about refusing to being held to ransom by Real Madrid, but I have to say I'm a bit sorry for Morata, as the player seemed to be really willing to come to United and prove himself. Now he is the victim of Florentino Perez's games, unfortunately.
However, I like the fact Real are now in a situation they need to sell two attackers and not just one, if they want to purchase Mbappe. They already needed to sell one from Bale, Ronaldo or Benzema, but now they also must see what to do with Morata, who wants to play as a starter or to be sold. The problem is - who will pay then as much money as they wanted from United for Morata??? Maybe PSG, maybe City, maybe Chelsea...
If the choise was between Morata, Lukaku and Bellotti, then it's maybe the best to buy Lukaku, as he is already accustomed to playing in England.
However, I was hoping that we would invest more money in someone like Bale or Neymar, while trusting Martial and Rashford for the position of a number 9.
Anyway, I knew it was not really possible, as Mourinho prefers to have a Drogba type of player upfront.
I just know that Lukaku will score a load of goals next season.
Now let's take Fabinho and also a right winger, to solve our most pressing issues.
Afterwards, we would need to sell several players and maybe add one or two until the end of transfer window, depending on lots of factors.
