In my view there is NOTHING further from the truth. Literally, I have read outrageous things in this thread and forum, but this (for me) is up there with them.
When Kane is back we have THE BEST STRIKER in the league in our ranks. Son + Moura + Llorente as alternatives are "acceptable" (not equal to him, but acceptable).
In midfield after Dembele's departure we have exactly 0 world class CMs. If Dier is back he can do the job, but he is not on par with best players in the world (nor in league) in his position.
I would even go as far to say that Son as CF is about as close to world class as Dier (our most distinguished CM) is in his position.
And yet somehow striker should be a priority over CM player? I just cannot see it. At all.
