Cavani Speculation/News (page 151 onwards)

[poyntontom]

here they all come, fucking flappers & drama queens.

 

[Joehannes]

you know we have sergio aguero, right?

Yeah. He didn't tear the league apart last season did he? Don't get me wrong I love Aguero as much as anyone but he's not clinical and he's injury prone.

I think alot on here is underestimating just how good kun is, there is noway id swap aguero for cavani

Aye. And Silva. Both need a manager who's going to get the best out of them. Pellegrini's the man. Especially for David.

I think Bluemoon might meltdown if Cavani goes to Chelsea. A little preemptive advice - everyone before flapping unnecessarily should wait and see what Txiki does over the rest of the summer.

This is just my opinion but there's a reason we weren't in for Falcao and there's a reason why we're dallying over Cavani, and for my money it's because the technical staff and scouts have got their eye on a player who has maybe a different (lower) profile than the two aforementioned strikers, but who in the long term would be a much smarter acquisition.

There seems to be an acceptance that City have to buy ready made top shelf players. I disagree and I think we'll see in this new era more signings which seem on the face of it to be less glamorous, but which turn out long term to be far more worthwhile.

Bare in mind that 3/4 years ago Cavani, Falcao, and Lewandowski all moved for relative peanuts compared to what they're moving for now. That's when we should've been on these players and I think in future that's what we'll be aiming to do.

you just have to look at how Atlético Madrid have done this over the past few years...i would love for us to do the same.

agree. the obsession with cavani is very mancini-like, buying the 50+ million player rather than the ~20-25 million player who in 2-3 years will be worth ~50 million.

it's why we didn't land our targets last year, because we were going after the absolute top line players, and going for all of them at the same time was unrealistic and caused us to miss on all.

if you chase two rabbits, you will lose them both.

Yeah last year has taught us not to waste money on Hazard and Martinez but to cleverly sign the young up and coming stars like Sinclair and Garcia.

one season with a couple of niggling injuries doesn't really make one injury prone, does it? for all we know cavani could miss 1/3 season this year and it wouldn't be any bigger surprise than if kun did

Aguero is both younger and more talented than Cavani but I want to see them paired together for City.

Put it this way Ibrahimovich was thought to be the icing on the cake when he went to Barcelona for 46m euros.

Aguero is a world class player but no system or manager will make him a clinical finisher , 1 goal in every 3/4 very good chances + IMO wouldnt be that effective as the 1 central front man.
