I suspect we will go for Isak but would much prefer Gy?keres
[QUOTE=PSRB;4280436]I'd take either - but why would you go for Gy?keres? More presence?Quote:

[QUOTE=Luis Anaconda;4280437]More presence, as you say, I just think he also has more potential to improve than Isak. My Swedish friend in Portugal has been banging on about Gyokeres as having huge potential to be one of Europe's top strikers. That said, my comment was a bit harsh about Isak, I wouldn't be gutted about getting Isak either.Quote:

[QUOTE=Luis Anaconda;4280445]I do think he is a decent player but his finishing is far from great. We have those players already.Quote:

Fair enough. I just hope the issue does not end up costing the manager his job in the next couple of years, only to have a new DoF and coach go out and splash the cash on the goalscorers we may have wanted.Quote:

I agree, and of course I would love a brilliant striker who can play football and score goals. I would also love to win the lottery and I am unsure which of those is more likely.Quote:

[QUOTE=Luis Anaconda;4280441]Isak has great feet but always looks like he needs a few good meals in him. Is he robust enough up alongside a couple of hefty CH?s. ?Quote:
