Future Strikers

The problem we have is we are basically going to be "held hostage" by Agueros form unless Pep changes his formation. The 4 main candidates are likely to go in these years IMO -

Lautauro Martinez - 2020

Mbappe - 2021/2022

Håland - 2021/2022

Martinelli - 2022/2023

That means we are going to have to constantly weigh up if Aguero has another 30 goal season, and if keeping him for an extra year but missing out on a striker who could score 30 year for 5-10 years is worth it.

So if we get to 2021 and Mbappe wants to come but Sergio wants to stay 1 more year...theres going to be a really hard decision.

A lot of the time when big clubs replace their legends effectively, theres an awkwardly rushed farewell, like Raúl at Real Madrid.

Good idea to think of a timeline.

I don't see Mbappe at all as realistic, I'd replace him with Werner.

Haaland I like because I think I read part of his deal at Dortmund is having a reasonable release clause, which we have done well with (Laporte).

I'm not sure about Martinelli, I can't see how ANY top 6 prem club would sell there best young forwards to another prem team.


My go to are Martinez and Werner, easy to justify with there age and especially with Sane/David likely leaving together I don't think we even have to wait for Sergio to leave imo. Just play say Martinez more often as you rest Kevin and give Jesus minutes on the wings. Go with 2 up top as well.
