Assuming they're planning on playing Rooney as a striker then? Klaasen and Barkley already in that position although Barkley might go. £45m is steep but he's fantastic. Him in and Barkley out for any kind of simillar fee is great business. wully 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moody Blue 9,282 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Just back from hols and can't believe some of these fees being banded about like sweetie money. There will never be an even playing field anymore until it all goes tits up, and it will at some point, it's inevitable. The rich have gotten richer and the governing bodies will never limit things because they'll just form their own independent league / body. It's happened in other sports and will happen in football as they just get greedier. Clubs like Man City /Utd, Chelsea wanting an even split of money down the leagues to benefit English football as a whole?? They'll say "fuck them, give it to ME and now". Same happens in every other country and it's the same core clubs that feature in the Champ League now every year or are winning the big national titles (bar the freak of Leicester). I do wish that just one of our players, one of these years gets us these kind of fees. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Specky Forum Organiser 63,954 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Sandro is obviously unbelievable but Alonso was fantastic last year, would be very harsh to replace him, would rather keep Batshuayi as number 2 and think Brown is good enough to be 3rd choice but if Batshuayi wanted to go Llorente would be a good replacement, haven't seen much of Candreva but need another type of player like that, don't want Van Dijk because he played for the filth but would be a good signing.

Like an old fashioned finisher. Just loves scoring goals. Also got a bit of pace too. Think he had release clause in his contract. Absolute steal. Could probably have done better than West Ham. At that price I think he could have been a very decent addition to Spurs. They're a bit light up top especially if anything happens to Kane.

He's like a lot of strikers from the 90s, early 00s like Ally, Inzaghi, Cole, Wright, Fowler, etc but yeah Klose is one of the few of recent years. Off the top of my head I can only really think of Defoe, who's similar in style albeit he's getting on a bit, but that type of striker is a dying breed. There's probably more but a striker who is all about goals and also has that wee bit of pace to boot. It seems to be more about being versatile and adapting rather than just being a predator in the final third. Him and a fully fit Carroll though could potentially be fantastic.
