Would signing Welbeck just be like signing another Walcott. Great players in there day but have those days gone?

Could probably do a job for us and may teach DCL a thing or two.
On a free not a bad shout but can’t see him being a long term solution however may be a decent stop gap until hopefully we get European football and are then a more attractive proposition for players.

I reckon he's got more goals in him than all our current strikers, but with his injury history, surely we should be looking at alternatives. Like you say, there's is a good chance we would end up with another Walcott situation.

I'd love to have Welbeck but only if he can stay fit.
He is the type of striker we should be looking at, strong, with a great engine and can get 15 goals a season if he stays fit.
On a free and as a replacement for Niasse or Tosun then it's a no brainer.

Agree excellent signing if Marcel can get him in.

Nah, not for me. Doesn’t seem worth it paying high wages for someone who’s unlikely to be our first choice striker.

If welbeck was foreign everyone would say he is a flop. He is injury prone and very rarely scores. He’s got WestbHan written all over him.
English players get over hyped - look at Jessie lingard - people saying he is young and will break through - the guy is 26! Again rarely scores - look at welbecks stats before anyone suggests signing him.
We already have Naisse, Sandro, DCL and Toson to fill role of strikers who rarely score - we need a 15-20 goal a season - Abraham for me. Honestly stay clear of mitrovic - watched him play loads - makes Lakaku first touch look like a magnet 🧲.

Rather we sighned British players all day long because they have backbone and steel most Euro players do not.

Backbone and steel are not words that anyone could describe Danny Wellbeck with - come on!
