Do we need to buy a striker at all? From the list and including all games this season;
Caciedo 4
Sturridge 3
Jo 3
Benjani 2
Evans 2 (if you count the dodgy one in the EUFA Cup)
Vassell 2
Playing with Robhino and SWP; it is unlikely Hughes will ever revert to 4 - 4 - 2.
The above list if converted into one imaginary player wold be the Premierships out and out top scorer at the moment with 2 more goals han Anelka.
I personally think Owen is worth a gamble and David Villa if we could prise him away from Valencia would be fantastic, which would mean maybe letting a couple of the list leave. My preferences would be Benjani and Vassell.
The youth of Sturridge, Jo and Caciedo (not forgetting Bojinov) is surely a better bet than to throw money at the likes of Santa Cruz, Defoe and Bellamy all of who are vastly overrated and come with inflated transfer prices.
It has been far too long since a young kid has come through our ranks or we got a young promising forward in early enough to make himself a real hero for our club, with a number of goals over a number of seasons. David White anyone?
Maybe, just maybe it is now City's turn to find a Fowler, Owen or a Raul and he might be here already.
