Gonzalo Higuain

[Spike 12,049]

If we are seriously picking players by nationality instead of ability...

It was a joke.

[DDA 9,570]

Why don't we go for Callejon instead? He'd come a lot cheaper.

I would like to see this happen that Callejon fella is a top prospect. Think he would be a great signing but as much as i would like to see this happen i can't see it due to his recent run of form. Murinho will want to keep hold of him!

[Peace. 4,352]

I was doing a bit of reading on him and it turns out, he has only been an Argentine since 2007, before then he was a French Citizen. What and odd little fact.

Though he has never lived in France and doesn't soeak French.

[Joker10 946]

I rate him, but he disappears way too much in big games.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Why don't we go for Podolski? Able to play on the left and in the middle and he's willing to leave (23 goals in 32 league matches in the year 2011 btw).

I heard there was an Arsenal-link with him.. £20million was often quoted in those stories. It's a possibility. The type of players who are bought in, to play a part in the background but could lead the line with good form.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

You mean a good squad player?

Another problem I have with him, is that he is already 24 but he has barely played 100 professional games. Mata is younger and has already played well over 200.

Yep, that

This is true.. But Real clearly saw something from him, when they saw him playing at Espanyol, to recall him. Though for experience, as DYC. said, Podolski would be a good shout.

Higuain is top quality.

is Higuain a long term replacement for Drogba ?

[Hd123 5]

Hopefully, and at the reported 20m, a better value than something like 50m for Cavani or 40m falcao, etc

[LDN Blue 7,903]

£24m would be brilliant for Higuain! Easily a player who would command a £40m fee.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Would definitely love him as our as our main striker. Though this is probably just another dailyfail.

[St Abramovich 175]

Hope that if he does come he can score some goals and be a real asset. We haven't had a striker lifting the team since Didier during the Double.

As a main striker always wanted Sergio Aguero.................

Higuan is not as good as Aguero from my point of view.

That ship has sailed and we need to move on. Higuain is right up there with strikers like Cavani, Falcao, Villa, who were/are linked with us.

:goodpost: I'd also love higuain in our squad. he could replace drogs cause i dont see his contract getting sorted out, and i believe higuain would really challenge torres to try harder for they pretty much have the same playing style and if he could do it then torres would have no excuses whatsoever.

[eldo 868]

Higuain and Aguero are different players.

[termninja 5,290]

It would be a great signing and it's actually possible, but the chances are higher that his agent is just causing some media talk to make Jose play him more.

[Ashblues 30]

Higuain and Aguero are different players.

Yes, but I think Aguero is a better finisher (higuain missed some very good chances at the Copa America), and overall a better player . Moreover, we already have Lukaku to replace Drogba. Torres is also there.
