We don't need much improvement we won the league a cup got to a semi final and a c/l final. Any centre forwrd is an big improvement on Aguero last year. Grealish may or may not be an improvement on Bernardo, but he isn't worse. Plus I think any centre forward improves Sterling, and we'll see a better Torres.At around £230m it should be a game changer, don’t see much improvement over what we have/had.
We’d still be pushing for the league without them 2
You will also see Sterling hopefully return to form if he's playing with an out and out goalscorer.not much improvement? The leagues top scorer and without question the guy who will break the premier league scoring record coming to a team that played without a striker? Doesnt say much for Gabby does it to be fair? ie when he was fit pep still didnt start him? Bernardo always runs hard but seemingly does less in the attacking areas etc then he did previously whereas Grealish thrives more in that area? Plus, see how De Bruyne improves even further when he plays his natural position and not as a false 9 like a good amount of times last season? The amount of times balls came into the box and we had no one there was ridiculous last season and Kane is a pure box goal machine! Grealish, Foden, De Bruyne and Mahrez or Sterling feeding Kane.............GOALS!!!!

Sign them two and we HAVE to win the league and go all the way in the Champions League.
A major investment , needs a major return
200m plus on two players we should all be buzzing with anticipation but I get the feeling a lot of our fans would be slightly underwhelmed.
Both players split opinion.
But once you spend enormous money on individual players the expectation and pressure increases even more, would you not agree?Nothing is guaranteed look at the scum spent a billions won nowt in four years! That’s why I take nothing for granted and why I said if we buy those two players and win the league it would of been a good investment!
To be fair Aguero was finished and contributed little last year.The idea of losing Aguero, Jesus and Bernardo and replacing them with Kane and Grealish doesn't sound like much of a positive window, to me. Hope it doesn't pan out that way.

Obviously, but that's not just with Pep, it was the pressure the owners demanded, they wanted sucsess, it was the same for Mancini, Manuel, even Hughes.No with pep there is always pressure to win everything and why he puts strong sides out in all competitions.. if we sign Kane and Grealish Because they coming into a team full of winners they’ll settle in pretty quickly it not as if they don’t no the league..
To be fair he is the far more “sexier” choice not to mention PL fans in general usually don’t like signing other PL players there’s no “unknown” appeal that you usually get from signing players from foreign leagues which in turn lowers the excitement. like when we were in for Maguire or Mahrez the appeal was naturally lower. Mahrez showed us all last season how good he is. But the appeal of signing him was “meh”IMO nearly all of negative stuff is being conditioned by the existence of Haaland. The desperation for that kid seems to be clouding a lot of judgements.
Disagree, there is a shortage of quality world class strikers, they are few and far between.IMO nearly all of negative stuff is being conditioned by the existence of Haaland. The desperation for that kid seems to be clouding a lot of judgements.

Don’t doubt his goal scoring, he ‘might’ improve us with goals but IMO will make us weaker in his all round game (in that position)not much improvement?

Agree totally but I think within our fanbase if it was Kanei and and Grealishio a lot of our fans would be much happier.The idea of losing Aguero, Jesus and Bernardo and replacing them with Kane and Grealish doesn't sound like much of a positive window, to me. Hope it doesn't pan out that way.
Kun has just spent the summer sat on the bench and I am sure it will be the same this season, he is broken.I just don't think Aguero was utilised because Pep wanted him out. I've heard numerous times that he was available more often than was made out and simply not selected.
Regardless, losing our only two senior strikers and replacing them with one who has question marks over his fitness (and has never been particularly dynamic) isn't ideal. Hopefully another would come in because I've seen nothing during Pep's tenure to suggest Delap will play a big role.
Grealish and Kane don't bring the same energy and workrate as Gabby and Bernardo. Sure, they offer better quality in the final third but this squad is slowly drifting from the high intensity style which made us the best Premier League side of all time.
If those two players were coming into that side of three (?) years ago then I wouldn't have the same concerns.
Plus, we seem to have this weird thing over the last few years where we leave ourselves short in one position, be it left wing, centreback or striker.
