They are in financial trouble............there are a few other players that we could possibly look at :-) |
Let's bring Quincy Promes in as well then! |  | | |

So does this mean we're no longer interested in the Belgian lad?
And are we looking to play Bony & Castaignos together? Cos if not €8M is an awful lot for a back-up striker. |  | | |

Seems like the Belgian lad wanted to wait for a better offer so we've moved on.
Monk played 4-4-2 with Routledge up top with Bony a few times last season. I can imagine him doing the same next season with Castaignos and Bony. Which I have mixed feelings about. [Post edited 5 Jun 2014 12:26]

£6.5 million isn't an awful lot of money to spend given his age, and potential resale value. We're buying potential, and I'd much rather us spend £6.5 million on a solution to a clear problem in our depth up front then spend £500k or a £1 million here and there on short term options who aren't good enough.
Castaignos can play wide, and Bony is off to the African Cup of Nations this season so just because he's our second choice striker doesn't mean he isn't going to play this season. He'll play a lot and should score a few goals.
People will need to keep patience with him, but he gets in goalscoring opportunities and will score a lot more goals then our back up strikers of previous seasons. | |

Michu is going to be really pissed off if he's regard as the third striker or on the contrary is the pursuit of another striker an indication that all is not well with Michu.Personally think Bony,Michu and Castaignos (or the like) will be good insurance. | | | |

Michu isn't a striker - he never was really a striker. He's attacking mid and was put in the position of Striker when Laudrup was out of ideas. |  |

Backup striker? People we buy have to be able to play in the first XI. None of this, getting a backup striker on loan, we need someone who is able to do the job — I’m sure anyone we sign will get plenty of game time, and hopefully a few goals. |  |
