termninja 5,290 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Torres, if he continues being depressed and wood-leggedTorres was supposed to be an instant impact at 27 years of age. LoL and he was an impact. He hit us so hard that we still can't get our hand around it...Higuain is 23 only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torres might just be past his peak, or at least with the current personnel we have. If Torres sucks till the end of the season, then I'm all for going all guns blazing for Higuain Although yes, it feels unrealistic. I'm not sure Higuain himself would want to come, seeing how Torres ended up.. Real is strikers candyland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real is strikers candyland.We have shitloads of strikers and it's absolutely stupid and moronic to buy another one no matter how good he is XD I would rather see Sturridge play there.I really like Higuain and he's a pure quality and by no means I'm not saying he is not worth the money needed for him or that he is bad, but we are much better investing that money into our midfield and defense which are leaking and aging.

It's not gonna happen though. Torres has probably already levelled his transfer price with merch sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather see us cash out on Modric 40m then 10m on some old midfielder or a young one that will struggle to adapt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krypt 241 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 What do midfielders have to do with this topic?He is just stating other areas need to be addressed before we sign a new forward a creative midfielder and a right winger (if we continue to play 4-4-3 ) for example.

ZanSnake 1,211 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Wouldn't mind having him here, with Didi leaving and i don't consider Nico a striker no more.There is no words for what position he plays now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson 358 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Our main strikers would be Higuain and Torres, Sturridge and Lukaku on the bench, but rotate between the four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Our main strikers would be Higuain and Torres, Sturridge and Lukaku on the bench, but rotate between the four.2 strikers?I think we'd play Higuain at the top of the attack, flanked by Sturridge & Mata. I believe Villas-Boas always plays a lone-striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peace. 4,352 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 No point we can't even get service to our current forwards.And our current strikers can't finish the few service they get... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if there's any one i would want to replace him (other than Falcao) it's Higuain.Shame he plays for Madrid, or more importantly Mourinho.

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 You never know, maybe he wants to leave Real Madrid, after all he is second choice to Karim Benzema. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 If it were true, which is highly doubtful considering it's by Daily Fail, I'm sure Higuain wouldn't out-right reject it. Benzema is the man in favour at the moment, Higuain's not playing as regularly as the former..But Real Madrid would not bargain a good fee. Mourinho would certainly want to keep hold of him, to have good back up options. Though Callejon is doing well too, so he may be tempted to allow the sale.
