Higuain's stats aren't great this season though
8 goals in 22 appearances in all comps, 233 minutes per goal.
out of those games he has only been substituted on once.
Bang average tbh.

All those arsenal fans cheering him last saturday - what would they have looked like if he'd scored?! Morons...Originally Posted by Özim
According to Ornstein and sources in France we are in talks to loan PSG’s Christopher Nkunku. We want loan and option to buy, they cover and a new contract before before agreeing to it.
Never heard of him! Where does he play?
From what I’ve read, he sounds like another low-scoring, low-assisting, undefined attacking midfielder, who ocassionally plays as a winger, but who really prefers playing through the centre (and who doesn’t put much effort in defensively) - I’m sure he’s good enough on his day, and maybe Emery can get him playing with consistency, but it all sounds like something that we have in spades at the moment, even with all the injuries?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for adding to the squad for the run-in - I just want us to either add something different (like a genuine winger who actually loves playing there) or plug a glaring hole in the squad (defence looks thin everywhere at the moment)...
Like matthews says, he plays at PSG...
I hear you. It does beg the question why precisely Emery wants him. Talks have already been back and forth all month and maybe even before that. Seems a lot of energy to spend on a loan player that isn't really adding anything to the squad.
Stats can be misleading though sometimes. Zaha's stats are pretty poor, but I think he would undoubtedly add something to this squad.....though I wouldn't have him at the price he would cost and clearly neither would the club. Understatement of the year award....
I think an attacking midfielder of some kind. 21 years old and seen as a potential replacement for Ramsey. Maybe has potential that hasn’t been drawn out of him. A loan with an option to buy seems like a sensible deal.
Never heard of him but in many ways I prefer this to the Suarez deal, at least this guy is an unknown and young so there's a chance he might offer something, plus he comes from PSG and they seem to have a lot of talent coming through the ranks there.
Loan with option to buy is what you want, if he's good you buy him, if not you send him back.
