Kagawa would be :tuttosport:

Also, id give away Quag and Osvaldo for one legged Drogba.
I like Kagawa, but I think he's a pretty big risk. Playing him would require us switch to 4-3-1-2 (which is IMO totally fine and a better way to do, rather than going to 4-3-3), but I'm not sure he's THAT good to be our key player behind strikers. I liked him at Dortmund, but not much was to be seen at Manchester.

Agreed about Drogba.

Kagawa for around 15-17m would be a steal (consider those jersey sells in Asia too). He would give us more formation options. His morale and confidence in Utd is low, but he is a great player for sure. In the right team, he would shine.

Drogba is 30-fuucking-6 years old. Even DC United isn't interested in him.

If we wanted him, why didn't we get him last time?

This club has major problems if we think Drogba is a good solution.

:agree:

About Kagawa... I'm not convinced at all. He's been a flop for United even under Fregie. Spending 20m+ on him would be a mistake and I can't see him going for 15m. The same case as Lamela's.

Drogba would be a wise move, even if he would be making 4m. He would come for free, would be the perfect sub for Llorente, and probably would know why he is coming. It makes a whole lot more sense then purchasing Osvaldo who has yet to convince.

No wonder we are interested in Calhanoglu, as he is really talented set-piece taker. He scored again from the free kick just while ago. Very similar goal to this one scored by Del Piero against Lazio in first Conte season.

4M wage? :facepalm2:

8M wages between Drogba and Llorente.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't mind Drogba here for his legit CL experience but every time I see him recently his best traits aren't even that good anymore. His hold up play straight up sucked against Chelsea. He's not actually topped the Turk league scoring charts in a season yet I don't think although I may be wrong on that part.

No he wouldn't. Age is a real thing, and Drogba is affected by it. Not to mention that's way too much for a third striker.

Absolutely! Specially for someone like Marotta, he should be all over this case! I highly doubt we are even interested in him, but if it happens :tuttosport:

I don't think we gave Anelka enough of a chance. Let's get him back.
:agree:

It's just for one season. I'd rather pay 4 million to have Drogba here for one season than spend 18 million + wages to get Osvaldo.

Drogba will be our Llorente backup solution until the 2015/16-season, when the Adidas deal comes into play, and after that he will be let go and we will attempt to acquire another "big" player.

I don't have a problem with this.

I read Kagawa is on number 10 on a list of most sold jerseys. :shocked:

I know he's Asian and all, but that's pretty surprising. I guess him being in a Manchester is also a big contribution, considering their marketing and reptutation is top in Asia.
Man Utd + Japan, he's definitely going to be high. I would have expected Messi to have more, but he probably has fakes. Japanese don't buy many fakes.
