Lacazette

No foreign space at the moment until we sell.

Sterling may be expensive but with our HG needs he is worth 40m to us.

So I think we've worked the quota out on the RS thread.

If we're selling Jov and Dzeko as the papers say, we'll have

Aguero, Bony, Silva, Nasri, Navas, Yaya, Dinho, Nando, Kolarov, Mangala, Kompany, MDM, Zaba, Sagna, Willy.

That leaves room for TWO more non HG signings. And a proper alternative to signing sterling with that quota is

Get rid of Willy and replace with HG keeper.

Then sign Pogba, DB, Lacazette.

Agreed. Would be the ideal targets.
 
Has their been any real substance to Lacazette rumours? With it looking like Dzeko and Jovetic going, wonder who we'll target at striker... Its been weirdly quiet on that front.

I'm assuming Iheanacho will be #4, but given the lack of noise I'd imagine that we'll spend whatever we have leftover from our expensive top targets and go for an under the radar, value for money type signing. Maybe a player like Mitrovic or Berardi.

Think it'll develop more as the summer moves on
 
This is a good article on why he'd be a very good partner for Aguero/Bony after you get past first few lines.

No real rumors linking us to him at the moment but there's a bit of worry with Lacazette being one of the bigger names to not sign a new deal recently with all the rest of the top talent like Fekir, that he is indeed looking for a move away.
 
Lacazette isn't effective enough out wide to be an alternative to Sterling, he's only good enough for where we want to be at #9 or #10.
 
And you would imagine people who have watched him, & want to sign him, would know this.
But probably saw him collect the ball in a wide position on the youtube highlights.

He can collect the ball out wide, drive forward ten yards and link up with another player the way Aguero does alright but that doesn't make a wide player.
