There's also the fact that he'll cost a buttload of money. Money much better spent elsewhere.
Ings would be better. Jay Rodriguez if he has recovered completely. Both cheaper, work harder and can play other positions while being a backup for Kane.Where though?
Seriously, I've heard that argument loads of times but never heard of a better example like for like yet!!!
Please name a player who would be better that we could attract?

What we need to spend on is our midfield, then the 3 behind Kane. Any striker brought in would be purely backup and should preferably be able to cover other positions as well.
I just don't think a striker/target man should be a priority at all until we've gotten a CM, at least one AM/FW and a CB.
I think we have to buy whoever we can who will improve the team and squad irrelevant of the position so to speak. If a great player is gettable in an area where we have no depth we have to take the plunge
We have no practical depth up front
He won't cost that much IMO big he won't be cheapBut not if that player will cost 25+ million. There has to be some prioritising as to where we spend.

Lol you seriously think Emirates Marketing Project who are going to be rebuilding next season are going to consider taking Aaron Lennon, all because they could do with a couple more English players in their squad?!Wonder if we could take advantage of Cities low number English players and offer them Lennon for Negredo seeing as there are rumours that Valencia want out of the deal. Even use the bait for Dzeko.

Forgive me if you was messing around, otherwise that's real pie in the sky stuff...
Who was about 23, with the potential to improve.They bought Scott Sinclair, don't forget.
Benteke is a great striker, but I agree that he's not a priority. We need to improve our FIRST TEAM, not our squad. We need a Central midfielder more than anything. Then a centre back. Then a winger. After that we can look at a striker, but realistically, we need a back up to kane surely. Benteke would expect to start. A young player with loads of potential is more beneficial I reckon. Maybe the season after, with champions league we can look to really having two first class strikers who'd be expecting to start.

Considering we paid 30mill on Sold-a-dud, is that too much to pay for a player who can give you up to 10 points a season?
