WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK OF MY CRAZY PLAN?

* Buy L. Martinez, if he's available this summer;

* Make L. Martinez the point man supported by Werner (as LCF) and Kai Havertz this season;

* Buy Haaland next summer as the point man.

* Move Martinez to Werner's position (as LCF which Martinez is perfect at) and sell Werner or sell Martinez again next summer.

* Make Haaland the point man next season supported by Martinez and Kai Havertz.

We just cannot miss out on Haaland- whether it's this season or its next season. Haaland is just the player we have and need to buy. Besides footballing reasons, he's got the best re-sale value in the future should we decide to sell him. I just can't stand seeing Haaland end up at another English club, whether it's this season or next.

Martinez is a secondary striker, so it wouldn't work to play with 2 Werner type players. Hopefully Abraham remains at the club as extra option. Giroud and Abraham didn't play much anyway.

We have enough second strikers (Havertz, Werner) . We need a bully up top (Haaland, Lukaku) .

Haaland won’t sign next year. So that theory goes straight out the window. We offer what we know what will be accepted or we don’t and miss our chance. Simple as that.

Not FIFA stuff; I don’t know where you guys are the notion that L Martinez cannot lead the line for a team. He can play as a support striker and also as a lead or centre forward.

I honestly think we can just forget all about Haaland now, he's staying at Dortmund this summer and next summer we don't stand a chance.

In terms of a top, top class striker. It now looks like it's Lukaku or bust. If we can't get Lukaku, it looks like we'll have to turn to someone a tier down like Ings etc.

So far under Tuchel we've looked at our best with a false 9. That's a role I think Martinez could excel in, unfortunately there's no apparent interest.

I would prefer a real 9 but if we have to use a false 9 I would choose Kai rather than spend money on Martinez.
