All assumptions based on there definitely being nobody available in the world who would have been a decent 4th choice striker and doesn't come into the categories that you describe. Obviously there is nobody like that in the world and you definitely know. Just like you know a world wide scouting network would be of little use. Not worth discussing with you any further because you're a fantasist especially if you think your previous post was anything other than fucking drivel.
it wasn't fucking drivel, it was emphasising the point that it makes more business and footballing sense to save your transfer money for a proper replacement on the right terms, with the right mindset and a squad space for them, rather than buying someone "decent" for the sake of it, who then will take up that squad space until you can eventually force them out.
To replace a player like Negredo you need an excellent striker, and in terms of emphasising the character that striker would need (a la Falcao) to move to a club like us, in that role, my post was on the money. You don't buy Negredo calibre strikers who then are happy to play the odd Prem game, and you don't waste your money and squad space doing so, or on buying someone inferior who would hog that squad space.
Whatever mate, you keep fantasising about what Txiki "might tend to say" when he is looking for a squad member and then using it as an argument and carry on thinking that using your "update thread" gives people similar resources as Txiki in finding a player.
