I meant if we get that version of Higuain, not literally get him from there lol. That is obviously impossible. Although, I wish we had.

Ahhhhh, oki!! I understand what you meant now, lol

You mean the Higs of Napoli  '36 league goals' form

oh hell yes!

Then I also agree with your top 4 guarantee

lets hope for a miracle!!

I'd much rather just sacrifice Morata to the gods, keep Giroud, bring back Michy and/or sign someone like Callum Wilson than sign this old fart. 

Why Bats?? Whats he done so good ffs? He is another failed loanee being sent home with his tail between his legs.

If anyone I'd give Tammy a shot.

All four of those are bad options. I have never been Higs fan but he is worth a punt on a 6 month loan. That said, he is in a massive slump as well.

We should have signed Icardi in July and put this whole thing to bed for years. Our board is shit.

I wouldn't mind that but Tammy so far seems a Championship flat track bully (hopefully changes!), and he is a youth player, meaning Sarri won't play him.

Only really young player I have ever seen Sarri get genuinely excited over is Sandro Tonali, who we absolutely need to buy and scupper Juve's dreams.

Well you know my thoughts.

Its sad but I just donr see it tho..  As I put earlier him and his Mrs gets treated like royalty in Italy. They love being the center of attention, And thats what he thrives on.

The only way we could tempt him is if we sent Eden and Sarri out to see them and said they would be bigger than copper knob and Meghan and needed him to team up with Eden.

We have to go into this market not worried about saving a £million here and there. Have a big old wedge and make it snow!

It was a choice of the players we currently had mate. Not my 1st choice neither but worth a punt over our 2.

I agree on that reasoning. I wish we could hypnotise Ola Aina and turn him left-footed, so he could bench Alonso too. Bollocks to anyone that says he isnt ready! Every game I see him play he is close to best player on the pitch and Serie A is no joke. That CR7 shut-down did it for me.

Also, all I hear about Reece James. So we have two potentially WC RB's.

I so wished we played youth more. It would pay off massively in the long run.

Like I asked you somewhere else on here I don't know why our youth loanees dont work out.

I'm all for bringing them in for backup experience but after theyve had regular playing time to come back to a bench I think they get demoralized.

If we sign Higuain on a six-month loan deal, then I don't really see what we've got to lose. Can't be any worse than we've got. The only concern if anything, is needing him to adapt to the Premier League ASAP. 

Batshuayi is crap. Let's not pretend that he's any better or great all of a sudden. The fact that Valencia are reportedly looking to terminate his loan deal says a lot.

Do we really want to sign Callum Wilson or someone as average as him? Because you know if we do that, then the board will just pat themselves on the back and think that's good enough for us moving forward and that we won't need to buy any other (aka better) striker.

[Special Juan 28,088]

The fact it could be a lone deal also means that it's temporary and he goes back in the summer. We need to be looking for a long term striker and if GH is a quick fix then do it.

Not really sure what is so funny. Like you expected the boss to talk publicly about possible negotiations. That is funny  

[Pizy 18,846]

Don't want him. I would've taken a punt from the beginning of the season but having not really heard a thing about his time in Milan I'm guessing he hasn't done much? His age combined with his body just makes him a panic option/temporary bandaid.

Trouble is there isn't any outstanding candidate we can turn to in the middle of the season. I literally can't even name someone who is at the level required that is possible. In 20/20 hindsight missing out on Aubameyang when he was desperate to leave was a mistake. Imagine his pace and skill playing off Hazard...
