Seriously think if we sign Moise Kean we have potentially a good player in a few years but is he going to get us 20 goals next year or even the year after? I doubt it so still think we need a Striker.
17 Games 7 Goals Last season for Juve in all competitions I think and the year before on loan at Verona 20 Games 4 Goals. Not great playing for the best team in Italy with the chances they create.
I also can't understand why we let Kenny go on loan with out a replacement in line to come in, now I think it was right he needs a year or two playing regular to be first team at Everton if at all, but not if it leaves us short.

Not great? Jay I, Dybala only scored 8 in the same team, quite hard to compete with Ronaldo who scored over 20 for Juventus last season. I think 7 from Kean is a decent return based on the other 2 strikers at the club.

Gingerdan - I completely agree mate 7 goals from a very young player is decent and I hope we do sign him, I just don’t think we can expect more than 10 goals from him next season so for me if we want to get into Europe we still need a striker even if just for 1-2 seasons. A proven goal scorer ie Costa, Dzeko type of players and I know it’s not that easy but even if we can do a year loan for someone this would let Kean settle and take some pressure of a young striker who I think some people are thinking due to his value and that he’s at Juventus is the answer to our striker problem. I think he certainly could be but I doubt he will be immediately. That’s the point I’m making and I pray he comes and makes me eat my words.

Gingerdan - Dybala was a different level he is world class and was always tipped to be world class.

Gingerdan - Sorry miss read your point on Dybala with my last reply.
Hasn’t he been playing more of a No.10 now so don’t think we can compare the two, I know who I’d have if had the option.

People say we need a striker who is going to get us 20 goals a season. In the last 3 seasons less than a handful of players a season have got 20+ goals in the league. It’s not like it’s easy to come by a striker who scores 20+ goals a season.

{Ed025's Note - no one is saying it will be easy CT but its something we have been lacking since lukaku left, DCL and even tosun have some good attributes but unfortunately hitting the back of the net is not one of them mate..

Oh I totally agree Ed that it’s a position we’ve been sorely lacking in since Lukaku. I just think people shouldn’t write off a young striker that we are looking to sign when that guy has a good goal scoring record but is not necessarily the finished article. That’s basically how we got Lukaku in the first place.

{Ed025's Note - im not writing DCL off CT, he is a fine young player who i think has a good future in the game, but i think a top striker is important for us and it would also be good for DCL to learn from him mate..

Ha ha I think we’re singing from the same hymn sheet Ed. I’m talking about Kean being a good option ;p DCL definitely needs competition up top.

{Ed025's Note - i think we are mate..

That’s exactly my point Ed.
CToffee - I think Kean will be a great signing but it’s not a player I feel will make an immediate impact hence me thinking we need a good striker. I know it’s not easy but if we are to get in to Europe we need one.

{Ed025's Note - very much so jaybo..
