Edison Cavani

agree we couldn't realistically keep four world class strikers happy, a daniel sturridge type player as a fourth man wouldn't go amiss!
 
Surely we wouldn't be able to get Cavani in January with Napoli still being in the CL? Probably bollocks anyway although they do name names in the fourth paragraph.

Supposing we did sign him, we'd probably be fielding two teams every game, assuming we were in lots of competitions, ie. Silva/Dzeko/Aguero one game, Nasri/Balotelli/Cavani the next. The only way to keep these players happy, I'm very wary about having four big name strikers.

CAV SOME OF THAT, ROBERTO MANCINI
24th November 2011
By Jeremy Cross

ROBERTO MANCINI is lining up a £30m bid for Napoli tormentor Edinson Cavani.

Manchester City boss Mancini has made Cavani his No.1 target to replace rebel striker Carlos Tevez at the Etihad Stadium.

Starsport can reveal the Blues have opened talks with Cavani’s agent in the hope of landing the Uruguayan international in the January transfer window.

The Blues’ chief Italian scout and fixer Barry Hunter met Cavani’s representative Claudio Anelluci in Rome to discuss a deal.

The pair spent several hours in a restaurant discussing the chances of Mancini luring Cavani to the Premier League leaders and big-spenders.

The 24-year-old has been on Mancini’s wanted list for more than six months and enhanced his growing reputation with two goals in Napoli’s 2-1 win over the Blues on Tuesday night.

Cavani’s double hammered a huge dent in Mancini’s hopes of leading the Blues into the Champions League knockout stages.

But Mancini is determined to have the last laugh on Napoli by bringing Cavani to the Premier League.

The Italian is preparing for life without Tevez and knows he will be able to use the cash raised from selling the AWOL Argentine star on Cavani.

Cavani joined Napoli in a £14m deal from Palermo in June 2005 and has scored 30 goals in just 44 games for the Serie A outfit.

He has also plundered 10 goals in 36 international appearances and earned a reputation as one of the hottest prospects in Europe.

Napoli value Cavani in the £40m bracket and know he is also a target of Chelsea, AC Milan and Real Madrid.

He is under contract at Napoli until 2015 but Mancini is confident of can lure him to the Blues on a deal worth around £170,000 a week.

Mancini is determined to keep on strengthening his squad as part of his mission to make the Blues the most successful side in Europe and believes Cavani is central to his long term ambitions.

But Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis has warned the Blues to forget signing any of his stars on the cheap.

He said: “If Sheikh Mansour (owner) wants to buy one of our jewels, he should pay much more than he has already spent at City.”

Plus we don't need him, especially with his crap 70's hair.
