Álvaro Negredo Sánchez

[Stoned Rose]

but how is Higuain a better goalscorer when he scored 19 goals last season compared to Negredo's 31 even though Higuain made more apps last season and plays in a far superior team? Even Soldado scored one less and Valencia are arguably better than Sevilla.

Higuain comes off the bench most weeks though, he isn't even the 1st choice striker.

This is how you sound:

"But how is Aguero a better goalscorer when he scored 12 league goals last season compared to Rickie Lambert's 15 even though Aguero plays in a far superior team?"

Higuain is miles ahead of Negredo.

[I'm no cynic but...]

I assume the manager knows what he's doing...

 

[pavelsrnicek]

I'm pretty sure that Higuain's poor finishing away to Lyon contributed to Manuel losing his job as Real boss so I doubt he'll be rushing to sign him. So if he prefers Negredo I'm happy with that.

Well, Aguero had a lot of injuries this past year which would account for that. I have always heard from Madrid fans that Higuain ain't that clinical. Higuain started 27 games compared to Benzema's 33. So he wasn't that much of a 2nd choice striker. How is having one of the best goal totals in Europe this past season (playing in a good league) not enough for you. You disregard these facts and just state Higuain is better, what is the reasoning?

Higuain comes out better overall as he gets much more of his shots on target and his percentage of them becoming goals is only slightly down on Negredo/Soldado.
