My guess is , if we are interested its as a replacement for Torres and possibly Sterling and is separate to our striker target. Not to say he couldn’t play as a false 9 too when required.i just want someone with goals in them.. our goals are evidently down from years back. i would prefer a goalscorer.
hmm. i don't really see us buying 2 expensive forwards in the same window. i know people love the false 9 system, it's evidently serving us very well. but deep down I still think this team would be a level above with a traditional 9.My guess is , if we are interested its as a replacement for Torres and possibly Sterling and is separate to our striker target.

It’s really how I saw Torres developing with us playing alongside a striker sometimes and alone as a false 9 sometimes.
The way I see we had about £100 mill plus wages set aside for Kane, that money is still earmarked for a striker.hmm. i don't really see us buying 2 expensive forwards in the same window. i know people love the false 9 system, it's evidently serving us very well. but deep down I still think this team would be a level above with a traditional 9.
How often did we talk about Kun not being a pep striker, how pep wanted to get rid of him, etc etc. eventually if you ask me he played maybe his best football in a city shirt for pep.
I’m sorry but he’s been in Spain for 2.5 years and has scored 14 goals. We need a striker. We can talk about systems and Simeone not using him correctly, but we need guarantees up front, especially for the 100+mil it’d take to get him.
Haaland, Mbappe, Vlahovic, even Kane is more of a certainty, and probably cheaper at that. I don’t think he’s an upgrade on Torres, and we’re apparently letting him go for 40mil.
Yeah, he sold us PR37 without any dramas.I think this would be the easiest deal to do in January due to our close relationship with Mendes.
