If the reports are true then Cavani hasn't been plan A since Pellegrini came as he doesn't like him quite as much as Mancini did.. He knows Spanish football inside out, and to be fair, Spainards have got a pretty good track record when it comes to adapting to the Premier League
No bloody wonder. 60 fucking million!!!!!!!!
The guys a decent player but nowhere near that good. He's been hyped up and everyone's jumped on the Cavani bandwagon when in truth be told he should never ever be getting rated anything like he is at the moment. A couple of good seasons in an attacking free flowing napoli team with good players around him.
Realistically, even in the current market, I would not price Cavani much more than 5-7m more than Negredo. He's certainly not worth anything like 40m more.
There's a huge difference between settling for second best and not being plain fucking stupid. Thankfully Pellegrini seems to have that covered.
