Javier Hernandez

Okay I see your logic. I believe Sturridge can step up this year but I'm a little concerned about cover. One injury to either him or Torres and we are in a really awkward position. Not sure who else is out there to provide us with squad depth. Even if Hulk were to sign he is not the answer. Defoe anyone?

Dealing with Levy again? No thanks! And besides, they won't be selling Defoe when he is their only striker at the moment.

It's a very tough situation because we have two strikers both of whom could be very good or very bad. If Torres and Sturridge are both good, you don't need anyone more than a body who can play some minutes in case of injury. If they are poor, then you need someone who can step up and play regularly. I thought that maybe we should have taken back Odemwingie from WBA. He can actually score, but he's 31 so not really part of their future and if he didn't play for us much, we wouldn't be stifling any development, but if we needed him he could start... and it would also open up more time for Lukaku!

How sure are you that Berbatov can do a job for us when we can't even be sure that he will turn up in every game? Furthermore, as if our slow attacks aren't slow enough already, don't think we need him to slow it down even more with his languid and lazy style of play.

What I meant was that Berbatov could have won us points all by himself by scoring a bucketload of goald against those shit teams like Wigan, Norwich, Fulham who we struggled against last season. Drogba was a beast, but only against the big teams and Torres was the same old Nando we've got to know in the last year and a half and didn't score against anyone.

But like I said, I'm not sure if a player like Berbatov is what we need anymore. All depends on how Torres does but right now that's a wild card and anything can happen. If we're buying a new striker, then maybe he should be another top class striker who is capable to be the main man in case Torres fails us and Berbatov isn't that.

Yeah but as I said, how can we be sure he will even turn up for those games? If he doesn't, then his personal style of play is not going to be any difference to what we went through last season with your point on Drogba and Torres above.

How can we ever be sure of anything? That's right, we can't, but in hindsight I can say I would've loved to have a player like Berbatov for last season. Of course we all thought that Drogba, Torres, Sturridge and Lukaku was already more than enough but wouldn't you say that it didn't quite work out the way we planned when our two first choice strikers scored less than 15 goals in the league combined?

Anyway, this discussion is now getting a bit pointless because despite me thinking he would have been of some use to us last season, none of us really wanted Berbatov last year and I already agreed with you that I wouldn't want him now and if we are going to buy another striker it's going to have to be someone better than Dimitar.

Woah, people you do realise that RDM is trying to make us play like Spain, right? That means we need a poacher. Sturridge couldn't finish his dinner and Torres is about as consistent as the British summer weather. Cheese Dorito is the type of option we need.

[The Rising Sun 711]

These are pure nonsense stories .....

Anyways, i really really hope we dont sign him. Have never thought he is good enough. Always thought of him as a micheal owen sort of player.... Anyone but him.

Our colleagues at @ESPNFC understand Chelsea have had an enquiry for Chicharito rejected by Manchester United. #cfc #mufc

Oh dear, please no.

^ bullshit, I'd say

[The Big Drog 1,110]

FFS, I'd rather we went back to our stupid and pointless hunt for Walcott than sign Hernandez.

[Henrique 9,133]

No, thanks.

[Sheva. 5,373]

Sadly this makes a lot of sense, but don't think Ferguson will sell him (to Chelsea especially) after all the shit he's been talking about with his new four best strikers in Europe.

[SamTrueBlue 2]

If we can get him pretty cheap which I sincerely doubt we will, then yeah.

[robdog 2,084]

No, thanks.

hata..you just mad that the Lil Green Men beat Seleção in the Olympics. Not to worry bro, The Yanks beat El Tri in Estadio Azteca, a feat I was told would never happen in my lifetime. Yes, I have seen the Glory
