Stop being mean to the naturalised United fan, just because he doesn't rate your Emile as the bestIt's the brand of your best ever Christmas trabs lad.
As far as I'm concerned, he's put in a transfer request. We should sell him for as much as we can get. Really no class, the new owner should just tell him I'm selling you and I won't give you a penny in loyalty bonus.
I was thinking along these lines too...it's near impossible to replace a goalscorer who gets you 25 goals a season. Let's also remember Rom got 18 prem goals. Not 25.The problem is finding those players. Rom scores goals and in a better team would hit 20-25 goals a season every season. That's hard to replace.

But it's dawned on me that buying 2 £30m strikers, surely they can give us 15 goals from one and 10 goals from the other? Surely? Look how many players have bagged 10 in the prem this season.
There's 21 players that scored at least 10.

Losing Rom will be gutting, it'll be a big blow. But with the money, surely....surely we can find 2 able players to take over his goals.
Look at that list. How many out of the 21 are A, 30m strikers (half?) B, are playing at clubs like Swansea, Watford, Newcastle! The point remains...we can find 2 players to replace Rom, whether we spend 30m on each of them or go big on one and have a cheaper proven striker with them.This is the key point mate.
We're not currently in a position as a club to attract two £30mil strikers, even though we will have the money.
There aren't that many £30mil forwards around that are worth that money, and the ones that are will want to be in the CL. Getting one is doable, but getting two will be very, very difficult.

I'm feeling positive today.
I agree, bargains/20+ goal strikers can be found, they don't even need to be big names, just good at togger.Look at that list. How many out of the 21 are A, 30m strikers (half?)
