New striker needed - but who?

[chelseathebest 150]

I'd like to have Lewa. I think he would make a perfect fit to our squad.

He could be a long term solution for out attack.

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

i would love to have David Villa in the team but that would be soooo unlikely.

i've been thinking and tbh Falcao is the ONLY option. Napoli are fighting for The Scudetto and selling Cavani takes away everything they have done past 2 seasons. Lewandowski (who i like) just doesnt have that 'look' of being a CFC player. and i know looks can be decieving and all but i think you get my drift,, im not saying he's not good by any means but we're in look for an animal, for that player who strikes fear in the opponents even before the match has begun much like DDA did. Falcao is a fucking force to be wrecking with and although our playmakes are more technical and speedy,, its been shown we still need that beast up top who above all else is clinical in front of goal. No matter how much speed or technical ability one has, it was proven in Torres' case that it can not make up for poor finishing ability. im at the point where really in January all im thinking is

Falcao Falcao............and oh yeah Falcao.

we have a great opprotunity this year to really jump ahead of schedule and cause havoc even with all the new signings,, now we just need 1 more which hopefully the board can take care of come Jan 1st.

^ if you apply the same logic for Atletico Madrid, they wouldn't sell Falcao in January either since they'd want to qualify at least for the CL, and without Falcao it'll be very very tough for them to do so.

agreed, but we can always give them Torres

I would absolutely LOVE Jackson Martinez from Porto. Something about him just screams top-class striker

[klopfzeichen 78]

Berbatov.

[Magic Lamps 11,677]

Get that Bony fella, today's game would have been fest for guy like him. (Well it probably had been for any proper striker). Lewandowski adn Falcao are awesome players but just a bit too expensive. Would be curious if atletico are so sentimental about Torres to make Falcao affordable. But i do not think so

[zolayes 14,489]

shouldnt worry about the expense . A new striker is essential ,, Cavani or Lewandowski would be my choice

[cchuka 99]

I'd give Athletico Torres + 20M for Falcao

win - win situation

[OneMoSalah 8,803]

Jovetic/Cavani/Dzeko/Balotelli/Lewandowski/Messi/David Villa

aye any 2 of them would be appreciated board.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

I think two are indeed needed. Sure not in january, but for next season and so...

In january, get someone huge, someone who can lead the line and hopefuly makes us title contenders. Falcao or Cavani. In summer, we should go after someone realy talented and experienced, like Jovetic.

[YouNameIt 1,511]

Dream scenario would indeed be to get Falcao and give them Torres.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Torres plus 20mio would be good too.

Jovetic/Cavani/Dzeko/Balotelli/Lewandowski/Messi/David Villa

Balotelli has certainly fallen down the pecking order at City...although I doubt they would sell him to us.

I'm glad Balotelli won't be leaving City. He's a ticking time bomb.

If only City were willing to sell Dzeko, he'd be a good option for us.

If managed correctly Balotelli would be a world beater. It seems Mancini has lost his touch and struggling to manage him as well as before when he was on that run were he scored 10 goals in 11 games or whatever it was.

Ballo would realy be great with proper attitude...well he still has time.

That's the issue though. He had a falling out with Mancini as a youngster at Inter, then he had several problems with Mourinho at Inter..and now he's having problems with Mancini again at City.

I'm not sure if RDM will be able to control someone as confrontational as Balotelli.
