The Suarez replacement

[Modo]

Let's face it we won't find a decent enough replacement for him. A perfect fit for us would be another wing forward. A player who like Suarez can play in all three attacking positions.

Thing is though, they're few and far between. Not many players seem to be able to play winger and striker. All seems to be winger and AM

You're right. I can't think of many players who can do a job in both positions.
Off the top of my head, Jovetic, Cavani, Walcott, Muniain, Jese, Delofeu...
Babel....

People wanting a player as good as Suarez who can play in those positions need to stop being silly.

To replace Suarez we need a striker and a winger.

Bony and shaqiri would be tops for me

Obviously.
Would Bony be content in playing 2nd fiddle to Sturridge?
I doubt that we can have both on the pitch at the same time. We also have another centre forward in Lambert and Boring hasn't left yet.

I don't know why people are saying bony will be second fiddle. He could easily displace Sturridge given the chance.

I'm not 100% convinced stugs will remain fit for the season, so bony will get his chances.

We need players hungry to impress. If he wants to come here knowing the risk I fail to see an issue.


And BOOOOO on the Borini comment

Lol at "boring" that's the spellchecker doing a wonderful job.
But you do have a point regarding Sturridge and his injury proneness.

Remy and Iturbe for me, but it looks like he's going to Juventus. So maybe Draxler instead.

Or maybe a punt on Luis Muriel and then Shaqiri too.
