If we must spend that amount of money, I'd rather we spend £120m on Leao than £100m on getting Osimhen.

Martinelli, Jesus and Kai can adequately manage CF shift.

Leao trained by Mikel is Mbappe competition.

No,

We need an out and out sticker

Absolutely fuck that. He's special at his best but it's no way consistent enough, too many top fullbacks shut him out and even decent ones can bully him out the game. His technique is so substandard at times where there's a lack of space and time, like he'd get here. Maybe Arteta can help in ways but to pay even half of that for a player as flawed as him is crazy given what we're chasing.

Idk how much time you spend watching Serie A, but I've seen as many games where he's awful as he's been good, looks good in a YT comp but that's it. We just got rid of Pepe we don't need a better version of the same problem.

Milan hold him back because they’re nowhere near good enough for him. If we had him constantly in dangerous areas to attack low blocks we’d see a completely different version of him

If the conversation is one or the other, Leao is more “special” than Osimhen imo, simply due to upside and reliance on service. The idea of Osimhen is getting a little overboard on social media

One of Leao or Kvara would be so perfect to reinforce the front 3. Both seem unlikely and would be hella expensive but would be incredible. One of them plus a CM (Fofana or Luiz) between January and next summer is probably all we really need.

Ngl I love the debate and agree if I had to choose, Leao has more star power. Shame people have so much vitriol to nonewthing because he brought up a super interesting debate and I think he’s knocked it out of the park with his argument
