Martial and Rashford ain't scoring 30 goals together, much less 40. You need a nikka that's gonna drop 30 or 40 for the season on all comps.

United have too many holes to fill elsewhere, a CB, RB, RW, CM x2 are needs, could do with another LB who is left footed instead of Young and Dalot covering that role. And that isn't even including the potential sales of others.

Glazers won't allow the sale of Martial and OGS isn't selling Rashford, unless forced by the board if he isn't signing a contract. They both want to play as the main striker, so let them fight it out, healthy competition, never know it may bring the best out of each other.:mjlit:

Immobile always goes missing in big matches.

Italy needs to sort out their No. 9 situation ASAP. Quagliarella had a good campaign but I can't see him leading the line for Euros. Belotti and Immobile can't be relied on in pressure situations. There's Keane and Balo, but we already know how them Italians get down.

One thing with Bielsa teams is that it's always bittersweet at the end... Bilbao reached the EL final playing beautifully but lost it, Marseille was 1st at Christmas and looked unstoppable but ended 4th with no CL. Chile never won anything under him though he's the one who build the foundations of the golden gen. And those are the teams that he was successful with :lolbron:

Because we like phuckery :mjlit:
So 3 to 6 ranked teams battle it out ? Feels like it's a bit unfair to the 3rd place somehow. But those are the rules then :yeshrug:
