Sandro signed for us instead of a host of other clubs (Juve apparently) because he wanted first team football. He was given the number 9 shirt. I think he will be our first choice. I also think Rooney will play there when needed.
However, it is obvious that RK wants a target man, a plan B. That Belfoldi (or however it is spelt) was a big lump of a forward, and Giroud, Benteke, Dembele are also physical presences.
Giroud (for no more than £25m), Sandro, Rooney & DCL are great options I believe. Should be at least 25 goals between them.
I agree
I have a feeling that Sandro was told he's no 1 striker but with possibly 60 games this season he knows he can't start them all hence Rooney ,DCL and possibly another striker.
Allows us mix it up and play 2 up front or play a target man in certain games
