Everyone is being seduced because he's been one of the best player in the world for such a long time, but he's not worth 25 million at 36 years old. Also he is just a stop gap, if we are so professional off the pitch how come we have got to this stage of the transfer without replacing our main centre forward, everybody including our owners know what Levy is like. Forwards should of been scouted long ago not trying desperately to sign a 36 year old in the dying embers of a transfer window.
Seduced because he IS one of the best players in the world, not was. He's putting up numbers every year nobody else in our squad can match. Given his reported drop in wage demands and the fact he will print money for us he's easily worth £25 million. You're looking at that fee in black and white and not considering the entire package, he will bring in the kind of money in merchandise sponsorships and marketing etc to cover that easily.

Theres nothing wrong with him being a stop gap, stop gaps work. everybody needs replacing at some point and not every player needs to be 20 year old and signed for the next decade, he's here to make an impact now for the last few years we've got Pep. Assuming he signs, we've got 2 years to find a long term aguero successor.

I don't disagree at all that we should never have been in this situation and put all our eggs in the Kane basket, I was gearing up to be very critical of city for that if we were to have the window close on us without signing a striker, it would seem we've been incredibly fortunate to have that deal collapse and have this fall into our lap perfectly, so we take the gift, hopefully learn a lesson and do better in the future.
 
Miss out for a few days due to work and suddenly Ronaldo is coming, Crazy I was sure Kane was coming but I guess Ronaldo will have to do.
