Forget it mate, we're only in for B list strikers now.

Was Suarez A list when Liverpool picked him up for 22 million, ? Better to buy them before they become A list.

Was Garcia A list when we picked him up for £15+M?

Glad we bought him before he became an A lister. Oh wait...

My point is that we aren't seriously in for the very top strikers. No one can dispute that.

Will Negredo step up to the mark? Only time will tell. But I'm not that confident he'll be the answer to our prayers.

Torres and Hulk were A list strikers when they were bought for 50m and 53m respectively. How'd they work out? We can play this game of player X was a non A list player and become terrific and player Y was crap but you can't make purchases based on this kind of sonsense. Tixi, Soriano and Pelle have seen Negredo up close and personal for several years and clearly they think highly of him. We've been in for Jovetic for a long time so again they think he's a quality player. We were in for Isco sho is an A list talent, we just weren't able to get him. napoli wanted more than we, Chelsea and Madrid were willing to pay. So it's not like we haven't been in for the "sexy" names.

Pretty much sums up a lot of fans feelings whom I've spoken to. Then there are others who see him as the second coming.

Utter bollocks !!! We only want him to be given a fair crack of the whip before the fucking doubters start to wet their fucking knickers in a tantrum !!!

LOL. Torres had already declined at Liverpool after numerous injury problems.

Hulk an 'A list striker'? You're having a laugh mate. He never was or will ever be.
 
As alluded to previously no point anyone signing him till almost end of window, why pay for a player that can't be used.

Utter bollocks. Just because some posters aren't impressed with this signing doesn't mean we won't give him a fair chance and hope he does very well for us.

This is a forum where people are allowed to give their own opinions on players - positive or negative. Stop frothing at the mouth and making silly assertions.

Was Cavani an A lister when Napoli signed him ? How about Suarez when he signed for Liverpool ? Fight off Real Madrid did they ? How about Falcao when he sigened for Atletico, Barca in for him ?

How about Cantona when he signed for Utd ? Henry at Arsenal ? Tevez ? Samuel Eto ?


People become A list players because clubs like us make them, in the exact circumstances we are doing now. Not all work out, but some do & the benefits outweigh the negatives.

Was Cavani an A lister when Napoli signed him ?

How old was Cavani when they signed him? 23! He's had time to develop into an A lister.

Negredo is 27.

How old was Suarez when they signed him? 23! He's had time to develop into an A lister.

At 27 years of age it is very doubtful that Negredo is going to improve very much.

List 10 players that became A list players from the age of 27 onwards.
