Alternative striker options

[Dribble]

Anyone have a clue who the mystery forward target is that was mentioned on the 93:20 podcast on Friday ?

If they actually knew, they'd say. Don't see the point of talking about a rumour unless you're willing to tell all.... Videos included.

It's not as if Manchester City Football Club has confided our transfer targets, but asked them to keep schtum which is why they won't mention names is it?

 

[Easy]

It's a medical condition mate, TW has health issues (probably something with his inner ear).

So we would buy him only for the home games :)

Given that Ahsan lives in Paris probably Neymar.

The ultimate gamechanger for Pep this lad.

Lol) Love a bit of self-mockery))

The one Howard mentioned at over £200m before the Sid Lowe interview?

Yes, he didn’t mention the fee , just that it was a rumoured summer target that made city feel comfortable about passing on Sanchez

A ridiculous name was the suggestion , not Messi

Ridiculous names ??

Kane - would be £200m
Ronaldo - past it ?
Neymar - would be £200m
Muller ?
Lewandowski?
Mbappe - is only on loan officially

If it’s 200m it can only be two players.

Neymar or Kane.

I can see why the club would want Neymar but I personally would not want him anywhere near our squad.

I also think the second it hits the winter months over here I think he will be one of those who puts up a strop.

He doesn’t look anywhere near as grounded as Jesus.

If Aguero doesn't fit our system then Kane definitely wouldn't.

Agreed.

You forgot Mbappe. He's not even owned by PSG, still on loan. And PSG have FFP issues, soooo...
Ofc it's just my wishful thinking.

 

[HaalandEffect]

Goes permanent to PSG after this season.

 

[cadds92]

If Aguero doesn't fit our system then Kane definitely wouldn't.

I don’t know.

I think the reason Pep struggles at times with Sergio is that he isn’t always consistent with his work ethic in the press and that’s why he favours Jesus in the big games.

Kane is one of the best if not the best striker in the press. He work ethic is outstanding.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

So he'd never be able to play at Anfield under the lights then?

We could just play him in home games he'd be fine with our empty seats just have to be careful on 75-90 mins as everyone leaves those seats can make a noise being put up. :)

Chelsea got in there first

Ridiculous? Hmm... So it's either Neymar or Peter Crouch.

Could be Wilfried Zaha. Remember Tolmie hinting at him some time ago. Signing out of left field, could get the Sterling treatment from Pep and definitely crazy enough of a transfer that people would call it ridiculous. Having said that, don't fancy him at all.

Definitely don't fancy him at 200m, think Palace might be pushing their luck a bit there.

Neither Sam nor the guys on 9320 have said anything about 200m. Some people seem to have plucked quotes from another interview and stitched them together to deduce that we'll be spending 200m on a forward.

That's perfectly legit compared to most transfer rumours, I'll go with it :)

 

[Healdplace]

If we spent £300 million on this mystery player, Fred and Laporte in this window how does that work financially without selling Yaya and Mangala to Nitwit United for £75 million each within the next 4 days? So it cannot be a mega expensive forward surely.

 

[jonmcity]

Kane is the best young striker around but it would take a massive investment to get him.

 

[cityzennn93:20]

Eden hazard ? Ridiculous name but has been stalling on contract negotiations with Chelsea. Fits our system as well
