Mateta

[CrazyBadger]

Keep seeing posts such as this one below, with another saying that we've (quite rightly) knocked back a 30M bid from Atalanta, and yet another suggesting Guessand could be the one lined up to replace him.

Interesting though - at what price would you let him go to Utd? got to be north of 50M, and probably north of 70M.

Now, Don't take this the wrong way, I'm a big Mateta fan, but I feel we can get an overly inflated price from those at ManU which could be worth considering, then go off and get Guessand in + 1.

Personally I’d keep Mateta and offer him a new contract. He scored so many goals last season and goals that won games. Goals that made the difference.

Build around these players I say!

I can see one more season with these players when Glasner goes the rest will follow.

Dated 24th April?

In an ideal world, I'd keep him too, as I said - I'm a fan. Realistically in todays market he's probably 40-50M striker. IF (and it's pure speculation) ManU offer 70-80M, you'd have to consider it.
he stock probably won't get much higher.

One might say we bought nketiah as his replacement last season think he was on the way out 🙊

I'll die on this hill - Mateta is the hardest player in this squad to replace (bearing in mind that if we're left with Nketiah and Edouard anyone selling a striker is gonna pull our pants down).

You're all gonna say Eze, but I am going to say Mateta.

Decent strikers always are and good ones cost a fortune (so do pretty poor ones). While I know it took a while for him to show what he can do, getting Mateta for the fee we did was brilliant.

I'm a little fearful if Newcastle lose Isak they'll come a knocking!

Win as much as we can while he and they are here. Hopefully a community shield or another trophy

After their experience last Summer trying to get Guehi, they know they'll have to offer us silly money (say at least £100m) straight off or look elsewhere.

We need to be aware that this is a very likely situation.

And whilst I really wouldn't want to lose JP. Newcastle might have 150m in their pocket and need a striker who can get up and running. And there are not many around. If would could get +70m for a 28 year old, you have to chalk that down as good business.

I expect it will all depend on where Sesko goes.

If I was in charge, I'd be pushing to get Guessand in asap. With a view to alternate with Sarr/Eze if JP stays. Or play up top if he goes. And then splash some of the remaining cash on Nussa or Dibling.
