Nicolas Jackson

Could be he values other stylistic and tactics metrics? You see it all the time, managers like certain players stylistically, not everyone wants the same.

He has positives and downsides for me, he clearly gets goals, quick and great on counter, bad is his touch is horrific
Personally i think one of the main reasons they're selling him is because he's a saleable asset that will bring in a big fee. They need to cover all this cash they've been splashing around

I guess I'm just bored of buying other (good) teams cast-offs. I want us to buy players on the way up, not gamble on players on the way down.

I think calling his touch horrific is a bit inaccurate. I'd say his touch is inconsistent. At times the ball bounces off him and he looks rather clumsy at other times his touch is very soft and he moves and links it really well.
 
Well there's a hell of alot of teams turning their noses up at '90% Kane', for 60% of Kanes transfer and wages.
Not sure why you're trying to claim he is "90% Kane"? I posted some stats that show his open play goals for Bayern last season was only 10% less than Harry Kane's, that is just one aspect (though goals are obviously an important metric for centre forwards)

Do I think Jackson would be 'value' at £60 odd million? Not really no.
Do I think he would do a better job in De Zerbi's system than the strikers we have at the club at the moment? Yes, I think he would.
What do I think he is worth in an even market? Probably about £45 to 50 million. He has lots of good attributes and posts good goal and assist per 90 numbers.

Can I see anyone else out there that we would have a chance of signing for similar or less money than Jackson would cost that I think would have a good chance of better goal and assist per 90 numbers than Jackson? I'm not sure I can to be honest.

Who would you bring in instead?

Could we not sit on our wallets and then go bigger in the next transfer window?
