Gonzalo Higuain

Let's hope he has a George Weah effect against Sp*rs !

Wow ... we have no better options in the market!!! Another 30plus joins the gang ... 

So who's next from the stable of Ex Sarri players would we go after now?

Excellent business, very happy with this signing and the accompanying deal.

If he sucks in the next 6 months (even then I doubt he will be worse than Morata) then we can go all in on an established striker in the summer. If he proves a success then we could keep him for another 12 months and buy a younger striker prospect to act as an understudy. 

Honestly, this is probably the best we could do in a January window. It's all fine and well to point to young strikers as the "obvious" solutions, but success does not always carry over. We might as well have anded up paying a lot of money for Piatek only for him to fail hard. You never know these things in advance, and what we need now is not a prospect but a finished product. 

Paredes, Higuain and Pulisic in the summer is at the very least evidence of the club having ambition.

I think MOST of us are thinking it might come off. But you cant help but to have some doubts.

Once hes in our kit I'll be shouting my damned fool head off for him!

Couldn't say I'm massively excited. Hopeful more than anything. Still very dubious of sarris style and lack of any sort of plan B but hopefully him getting the short of players he wants will help. We need a striker and he was a good one, coming into the premier League tho at 31 having never played here before makes me wary. Then again Etoo had never played here before at his age and he managed ok. Fingers crossed

I liked what we did last summer, and I like this too. Board is doing well since Sarri arrived.
