I don't really agree with the argument he is a risk. His wages will not be astronomical, so we won't be in a situation where if he's rubbish we won't be able to shift him and he'll bleed us dry as he's also still young so we'll more than likely be able to sell him on again, if he is terrible.
But most importantly I think it's a situation where we need a striker and looking at the market he appears to be the best available TO US. There clearly our other strikers about but whether we can attract or afford them is a different story, not getting him is a far greater risk as we once again won't have a striker.
He looks like exactly the type of striker we need, he was great in the prem last year, we can afford him, he's young and he's going to be playing next year with the World Cup in the summer so he's going to be desperate to get in ahead of Lukaku.
I just can't see why people wouldn't want him bar just being scared of how much he costs.
