I see Lookman is now looking for an escape route from Atalanta in the summer after being publicly criticised by his manager last night for missing a penalty. his stats are still very impressive. anyone think we should go back in for him in the summer?

I suspect he'd be out of our price range Elvis, or more to the point he'd cost more than we'd probably be willing to spend on one player given the number of recruits we'll probably need over the summer.
Shame really as I always liked him and I was disappointed that he wasn't really given a chance.

He was given a chance - however he was immature and had a poor attitude when with us.

Well Moyes did say when he first arrived back at the club and I quote his words that he’d be looking to recruit ‘elite’ players in the summer to match our new ‘elite stadium…. i think a player that scores a hatrick of goals in a major European final and possesses the impressive stats that he does would surely fit into Moyes description of player, all fantasy talk really but would love to see him back in blue.

I'm not sure 14 starts is being given a chance Dan.

Lookman suits European football better than the Premier league.
We hopefully will see the back of the likes of DCL, Keane, Seamus and Dacoure which will save us a fortune. What will happen with Branthwaite is still worrying me. If Madrid come calling then it's a massive decision for the lad.
Hopefully Moyes can get in 5 or 6 quality players with a few of our youngsters being promoted to the first team squad too.

Think there’ll be plenty interested in bringing him back to the Premier League. Not convinced we’ll be one of them.

He had that prima donna feel about him which IMO was his true nature regardless of his age full stop.
