Re: Cavani Speculation/News
Look at Bayern Munich. They've got the two Marios, Gomez and Mandzukic, who I don't think are technically anything special yet they complement their team perfectly. The point we can take from this is that it's not just a question of signing the best striker, but signing players who complement each other.
We lost the title last season because of one problem - lack of goals. We need to solve that.
Cavani in would solve it IF Aguero could also function alongside him.
That's one point that has been discussed.
Another is the substance of the City Cavani "bid". Much of the Cavani speculation is off the back of the recent De Laurentiis statement that they were prepared to negotiate with City for a Cavani / Dzeko / Cash exchange. But was that statement intended to inform or was it a negotiating tactic of some kind? I'm a bit suspicious of that statement. I'm sure it was reported accurately, but if I were in that situation I would keep quiet unless I was up to something else.
Soriano was reported as saying there's no City Falcao bid. If that's the case, then maybe there's no City Cavani bid? I respect what other Bluemooners are hearing and saying, but for the moment I'm sceptical. Last Summer we spent months discussing the RVP bid. It was all agreed we were told. In reality, a bid was never made.
