Strikers

We need one. Who do you want?

Lukaku for me. I suggested we buy him as a fourth striker when he was 16 or 18 (can't remember)

Anyway. Who?

Dybala.

I have no idea if he is serious as Serge and Carlito, but his skills are amazing. But so would be the price for him.

Sulkaku? No way.

We need a striker that's equally adept playing wide as they are through the middle.

Aubamayeng and Morata for example.

How many times do we have to buy a striker from Serie A before we see the trend?

Knowing our trend with short-arse argie strikers, I'd chance it.

And just for the record, Vuoso is officially 100% Mexican as far as I am concerned.

Dybala showed some amazing skills, but i think they fixed him a price that is not fair. They paid a huge amount of money for him at Palermo, which I think, again, It was far above the price they should pay.. I am with Blue Myself of this one, call me romantic, but I have a soft spot for argie strikers.

Too inconsistent. Dybala or Aubamayang

I wouldn't disagree with anyone who has mentioned Dybala, Morata or Aubamayeng as they're all top quality players.

Lewandowski could be another to give us a player in the box with height.

Anyone as long as it's the back of bony. I haven't enjoyed our forward play as little as I did when he played since corradi was up top.

yet again Cavani for a decent fee.
and yet again I think the Club would be smart considering a Kun sale, while he's almost on top his value. wont happen, tho.

and Lee, I share yr sentiments re Pony as anyone, and also undestand where U come from re 2nd sentence: a tad harsh, tho. Corradi was shite even for Serie A standards.

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...

Arsenal have triggered Vardy's 20m release clause? Being a Northener, surely he would be better with us?

Yeah but he made me smile with his daft goal celebrations which is one up on bony. Now had he scored more than twice he'd be even further up.

Vardy will go back to being shit, amazed Arsenal have gone for him.

Dybala, does he actually score goals? Morata or Aubamayeng or whatever safer bets, imo
