I think there is zero chance we are getting this guy especially if Cuadrado comes as well.

Honestly, Gabigol is a great talent but spending big $$ when we already have Dybala, Higuain, Mandzukic and Pjaca seems superfluous. We may live to regret it. Having said that, you know Man United will never bench Ibra and Barbosa would need to move higher than Martial and Rooney - I guess its...

Too many teams interested in him now. If we were interested, I think we have missed the boat on this one. I can see Man U, Chelsea or another team offering a lot more and getting the player now. I also don't think Allegri is that desperate for another forward judging from his most recent...

If Allegri plays with 2 up front and persists with 3-5-2, I have no idea how this player is going to get any playing time with the forwards we have now. Might be different in a 433 scenario perhaps.

I am not convinced that we are getting this guy. Assuming we let Zaza go, we would have Dybala, Pjaca, Higuain, Mandzukic, and Gabigol. Unless Allegri intends to play 3 of those up-front (which I doubt), then 1 or 2 of those players won't be getting many minutes. I suspect he is a back up...

He is under 21 so won't effect the quota if he joins

Pjaca is not directly comparable to Cuadrado. The latter was mostly used as a wing back whereas I cannot see Pjaca being the same at least from a defensive perspective. Really don't know much about Gabigol so no idea.

I understand the logic, but the reality is that I don't see that happening under Allegri

Maybe we get Gabigol and Pjaca and get a cheap back up number 9 like Immobile (who is also home grown) - might cost around 10m. I remember also reading a few days ago in an Italian newspaper that we might loan out Gabigol to Sassuolo? But spending over 20m (for part of his ownership) on a...

I still think we are after a number 9 especially if we sell Zaza to Wolfsburg. Gabigol is not a target man type player. I am quite interested though. Pjaca & Gabigol play in similar positions - Gabigol is a left footed inside right forward while Pjaca is a right footed inside left forward...
