Edinson Cavani

Wouldn't it be smart if Roman/Emenalo/Gourlay have some sort of agreement with Napoli and Cavani , if whether needed, Cavani would be bought at an X sum at an X date in January , if Torres flops again. That way both sides get the best of it. Atleast I think. With upfront payment it's a visible idea. [too much fm, lol]

Thier club won't be happy with all the power with us, in decideing if we suddenly want him. January transfer window will have players who are even more expensive. Better of waiting til next season, then judging if we want cavani or not.

As T_x said If Torres flops, I see pressing the panic button and buying Cavani in January for another 50 mil. Depends though. Roman has always been rash at decisions.

cavani is overrated imho, bring on the angry green machine which is the incredible HULK

with a younger forward half with drogs and nico gone, he can provide strength while torres has his speed

What speed? lol

We dont need Hulk, we do need Cavani. I think that's quite obvious.

[Rahul Haque 57]

if im being honest, i'd be more confident with cavani as our number 9 going intot he season with sturridge, piazon and lukaku as back up rather then torres

[Ollie 4,400]

As much as we all want Torres to shine, it's far from guaranteed. We need someone who can guarantee goals, i reckon Cavani can score goals anywhere. Having Torres and then the back up being Sturridge and Lukaku is asking for trouble. We have about 100 CAM's, we NEED Cavani.

Nope, other way around.

[Ollie 4,400]

We have 3 strikers, 2 you wouldn't trust to throw in in the league and 1 who has had the worst 2 years in his career. We have more quality / promising CAM's than anyone probably in the world.

Hulk can play RW and ST. Sorry but that automatically makes him more useful and 'needed' than another expensive CF.

Debuchy can play RB and RW. Sorry but that automatically makes him more useful and 'needed' than another expensive forward.

Touche.

I'm getting sick of this "class is permanent" stuff. It just makes no sense because it implies that everyone who was ever good will always remain good which is obviously nonsense. We should get Beckenbauer, right? I mean, if class is permanent, who cares that he's 67. Pele is 72, but one of the all-time greats so therefore he must still be "class". Nothing is permanent and every player declines. Being good a few years ago is no guarantee of being good in the future.

And yes, Drogba did have some poor seasons with us but it was always when he was replaced as a starting striker and was starting 15-20 Premier League games a season. Drogba never had a season remotely as bad as Torres had this past year and a half. 29 games without a goal is not bad, it's historically awful.

Last year? Drogba was pants, yes he baged in some vital goals towards the end of the season but in the league he was poor.

Oh, snap, so was Torres, perhaps it was because the service was poor, he was rotated and the team struggled.

Cavani great player that he is was the focal point I a very attack minded Napoli, comes as no great surprise that he managed to bag a hat full of goals.

Well if man city can have 4 world class strikers can't we have 2? Sturridge and lukaku simPly aren't good enough

The thing is that we play with only one striker and not two.

So getting Cavani can be some problem for Sturridge and Torres...which to be fair I could care less for that flop of Torres.

But if we can avoid that and be more smart by fixing one major problem that has plague us by ages, while at the same time have a second back up to the CF then we should do it.

Which is why I am convince that for the price range, Hulk is a smarter buy.

What do you base that on?
