Let's pretend that you are Daniel Levy. Who would you buy, and why do you think that the team would sell to us or for the amount that you are willing to spend.
Remember, we aren't working with pretend money, this is real money.
please don't make me be levy! ok well first of all I have hired scouts and people to do this job for me.
but lets ignore that part to suit your biased opinion.
& if I was levy , I wouldn't have left it so late to sign now. I am a big bony fan. sounds weird saying that,
I was last season too. I would have gone in at 20m with him in the summer. it was pretty clear they wanted 20m. so then it was just a matter of getting bony to agree to join us. he may have said no of course.
but we are a step up from the swans so we would have had a decent chance.
I also wanted suarez when he was leaving ajax. I have heard 2 different reasons we didn't get him. 1 is they wanted a few million more than we were willing to pay. the other is that we weren't sure if he would suit the premiership. anyway, I would have paid what ajax wanted.
I also thought kane was nowhere near good enough for us. he looked average on loan. & looks clumsy to me. glad he has made me look very wrong indeed.
anyway, so I would have gone all out for bony this summer. also, they like naughton & carroll. so we could have thrown them in to the deal. if it was workable. knock 10m off for both of them.
if I made the mistake of leaving it till the last few days of jan. then off the top of my head u could have gone for someone like demba ba. knows the premiership and London. wouldn't need much time to bed in.
could help kane. works hard, chips in with some goals. I am not saying it would be easy to get him or that he would be a superstar for us. but he would improve our attacking options.
that is the sort of player that is realistic for us now. if we couldn't agree terms or they say no, then someone else like him.
anyway, I think there are plenty of strikers we could have got that could have helped kane out and would be handy for us. I am realistically. I am not saying top world class strikers.
