    We were crazy to give him that kind of money, he's never proven himself at all yet he's made loads of money out of doing little.

    Morata is also a huge risk, his finishing is wayward to say the least, we've seen enough of those to last us a lifetime, at least if you pick someone who is scoring goals you increase your chances of them scoring goals for you.
    Morata I'm not impressed by and Janssen's one season doesn't bowl me over either. Only as a longterm project would I think it's a good idea.

    Take a bag of money £30m-£40m to South America, and I think you can come back with a beast of a young striker

    I agree Janssen is unproven, but in the end at least he's scored goals which is more than Morata has done in his career and he's played for the best teams on top of that so should have had plenty of chances.

    I'm all for a top, proven goalscorer if we can get one, can't see it happening though and on that basis Janssen would be a better bet for me.

    We don't take bags of money with us, just a change tin so we can bid the extra £1 if required.

    Theo is the prototype to our flawed economic system when it comes to youth players. We pay them way too much before they’ve even developed or established themselves as first team starters. Now we have a few players that are close to being on £100k per week but far from being first team regulars. Some aren’t bad squad players but if their contracts running low and they expect some form of pay rise, it places us on a position we really shouldn’t be in.

    I'd take a punt on Janssen, can't say I know much about him but you can't ignore the numbers. Could be another Alfonso Alves or he could be an RVN.

    I don’t think there are any established top goal scorers out there we have a chance of signing or are likely to move for.
