I really think Michu is the answer in january. We were linked with him again the other day: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/swanseas-michu-opens-door-potential-2929219

He hasn't played as a striker lately and he's been injured a lot but the lad can play, he knows how to score and he's done it in Premier League. Every time I've seen him this season he's been quality. His movement off the ball is wonderful and would be put to great use here. Anything in the region of £20 million would be good business imo.

I know his off the ball movement is great, and he's really intelligent, but I'd much rather have a striker who had some standout physical attribute.

Blistering pace to get in behind, or strength to hold up the ball and win aerial challenges. If we're going for a 2nd rate PL striker I'd much rather go for Benteke tbh.

Michu is such a lumbering, cart horse of a footballer.

Have you deliberately been on the windup for the last few days? You've come out with some shocking drivel recently. :hmm:

Both will be overpriced in January and both will be completely useless next season.

Walcott's got pace, Giroud's got strength.

What we lack for most part is the movement and intelligence upfront. Also, Michu is an excellent finisher and would probably be cheaper than Benteke too.

Michu can hold the ball up just fine and he's good in the air.

Make it happen

I've lost patience with Caz, put Podolski on the left and that looks better for me.

:drool:

Isn't Michu having trouble with his ankle? Remember Laudrup saying he needs to have surgery soon.

Lewandowski on January 6.

Are we seriously contemplating Michu of all people?

Is Giroud seriously our only true CF?

Summer 2014:

IN:
Sagna, Coleman, Matuidi/Khedira/Schneiderlin, Suarez/Rooney/Costa/Benzema
