A big piece of the puzzle in place hopefully. We got lucky last season with Son and Kane fit and firing. Now we have another forward who's responsible, experienced and you know will lead if needed. Plus he could play with Son and Kane. It wasn't an easy spot to fill. We've had all manner of dross without getting proper cover in. So now we potentially have cover and a complimentary player.
He's not a backup striker, though. It's 4 players of equal quality, who will get rotated in the 3 forward positions.Assuming Bergwijn goes it gives us Son, Kane, Kulu, Richarlison & Lucas as front line choices.
Add in the extra midfielders (Bentancur, Bissouma, PEH, Skipp), we could easily go 3-5-2 as well, lots of options
Our best backup striker option in how long?

stretching it with equal quality but it's certainly 4 players who you would be confident in starting any game, with a decent enough back up on top of that. I would like to see us progress to a point where we have 5 + 1 though to really push onHe's not a backup striker, though.

Scoring, assisting, dribbling, being fouled a LOT and flopping to the floor to win the freekick and relieve pressure
When was the last time we had 3 top tier forwards with proven premier league experience at the same time? Was it Keane Berba and Defoe?
Was just thinking it's amazing how long the #9 shirt has been vacant for.
