Yes I was thinking of Balotelli.
He is in his mid twenties, used to playing in England, would only be 12 million ish but could Wenger get the best out of him.
It would be his last chance really but it won't happen and I'm glad that it won't.
Who else is there though from a smaller club than Arsenal and not too expensive ?
Technically he was the perfect and unique 21st century striker and a natural progression from Thierry. Shame about the cuntishness at the end, but I guess he read straight through Wenger's bullshit.Quote:

Or he's just a cunt.Quote:

Yes.
I had forgotten about Benteke.
I don't know if Liverpool would sell to us and if he would suit our style of play but we could do worse.
Of course, it won't happen.
Benteke is just as good, or bad, as Lukaku. If this is the level we are at then we won't be signing a striker to make a differences to those fine margins, instead we'll be signing a body to fill a spot when another body breaks down. These sort of players give us nothing new, they make up the numbers.
Benteke is a donkey. No thanks.
