Who will we replace Tevez with?

Most people on here are just mentioning names that are spouted in the press & media in general.

Cavani (too expensive)
Lewandowski (wants to go to Bayern)
Gomez (big lump, looks like a Luftwaffe pilot with his slick back locks)

Or they just reel off any other (deemed) top strikers name out there

Higuain (probs end up at Arsenal)
Benzema (not sure why? Probs coz he plays for Madrid)
Villa (too old, not come back fully from injury)
Benteke (no one had heard of him before last season)
Lukaku (see above)

I'm sure our scouting system is a little bit more rigorous than this..... Thankfully

One of the most idiotic posts i've seen in a while

Perfect attitude from our John, looks like he is determined to do whatever he can to break into the first team this season.

My full support is with him!!

I am happy with this.
 
If he wasn't our player we would have a topic on him now. Not seen enough if hum but would like to see him given a chance.

Our scouting system will only be proven once the season has ended....

If whoever they buy has better performance and stats then Cavani, Gomez and Lewandowski then great.

If not, and i suspect if we dont get Messi, Ronaldo or Van Persie they wont, then what you said is just you being bored of hearing the same names.

These name are around because they are the best available strikers. Thats who we should be going for isnt it?



This!

We need to go after the best striker available. We didn't shift weight to bring in more fat.
It's time to get the cream of the crop.

What's the point of buying another squad striker when we only have one starting 11 striker?

Who says we will have only one starting striker? No one knows until we line up. Soriano has said very clearly 4-3-3 is the academy formation but the first team manager can do what he wants as long as the basic principles are followed. For all we know Pellegrini could use his standard 4-2-2-2 formation.

No, my point is that if we use a 4-2-2-2 formation today, only one of our strikers is what we would normally call a starting 11/world class striker. Dzeko hasn't been for us and Guidetti is still an unknown factor.

A strike force of Aguero-Dzeko is weaker than Aguero-Tevez and a strike force of Aguero-Negredo/Soldado is weaker than Aguero-Tevez

So what's the point of buying another squad striker when we're still lacking another world class striker.

Agreed, it's like buying for the sake of it

I'd be surprised if one of those names above isn't on our players list next year.
sincerely hope it's Cavani
He'd be way down the list for me.

Of any striker I'd want Benzema or Lewandowski. I doubt we'd get either but they'd be we'll ahead of Cavani - who is good but very overrated and very overpriced - on my shopping list.

Don't forget; WE HAVE AGÜERO! Do we need someone of this level that is being talked about? Why not stick Benteke in the squad, have Kun as first choice and have Beneteke Guidetti and Džeko battling out for starts in other games or coming off the bench to change the game.

I'd rather have Agüero as first choice than Cavani.

Hope he can break into the side and star banging In the goals, it's been too long since Micah and superman, fingers crossed

I really rate Cavani but I don't see us having him and Dzeko as 2 of 3 strikers in the squad. I'd love us to sign him but really we would need to shift Dzeko if we did and that would still leave us needing a replacement for Tevez.
