After weeks of me considering what our best option is for signing a striker, it has become clear to me that berbatov is the man we should focus all our attention on and sign, the biggest factor is he is proven in the premiership for starters, something which villa, benzema, gomez, zlatlan, hunterlaar and eto arent.
I briefly had a though that we should go for villa but when i realized his age and what he offered to the team, it seems he isnt right for us. Being of a similar age to berbatov, but as a player which relies more on his pace he would have less time at his best and also he is not exaclty tall and does not posses a physical presence, which is what we need. So villa is pushed down the list.
Then there is benzema, who if wanted the move would be top priority, young, direct, explosive, powerful, quick and deadly, however, he clearly wants to stay and if he does move he seems to prefer spain over england, so i think we should move on with regard to that one.
Then there is the untested gomez, scored a lot of goals in his league but has seemed to flop at the euros, he is young, big and has potential but if we are going to spend money the player needs to do well, we should spend a bit more with less risk, he also lacks experience at the top level.
Then there is zlatlan and eto'o players of have undeniable quality but simply, i think their attitudes are wrong and we shouldn't take any chances on known temperamental characters, because we wouldn't want to disturb a close knit team spirit with a trouble maker.
Then finally there is Hunterlaar who has become my second choice, a player who clearly knows how to find the back of the net, he is big strong can hold the ball well and is fairly mobile, untested but his goal scoring prowess is undeniable and is clearly and out and out striker which is what we are looking for, i think he would be willing to go in and out of the team too, like tevez.
SO berbatov for me has to be the main target, at 27 he has his best years to come and he could give them to us and forge a great partnership with the other forwards in our team, because of his intelligence, great build up play, strength at holding the ball, amazing ability for a killer pass, and he knows where the back of the net is too... Dont forget he has been playing in a poor spurs side yet has been scoring and assisting plenty in the past seasons. He would give us experience and a cool head which would be vital for the youngsters and with giggs and scholes soon leaving could provide that calmness when the veterans leave.
There is a slight doubt about his attitude but i think its media hype and is unwarranted, he still played and contributed after being not allowed to move in january and ramos has commented many of times as to what a great player and personality he is in the dressing room, im dreaming of him in our side, i just want it to become reality.
