The all new Striker thread..

What about his spell in Germany? The guy failed everywhere outside of the Netherlands.

Guys, I am actually Dutch, I've seen him play many times. Locadia is nowhere near good enough for us (nor is de Jong btw). Nowhere near. He isn't even good enough for PSV at the moment. Those stats are somewhat flawed as well due to many of those appearances being as a substitute, which usually helps a striker since by the time he comes on the opposing defenders are tired, gaps are opening and the pressure on defences is growing.

Well, if you've seen him play (I haven't, outside of Youtube anyway), I'll take your word for it. Still, I do agree with what indianspur says as well: we shouldn't be writing these guys off as quickly as we generally do given Kane's exploits.
 
Maybe, just maybe in the future he might turn out well for us. If we would buy him now he would contribute absolutely fook all for us next season though, I'm 100% convinced of

so would you rather we gambled on Zivkovic from Ajax?

No, he can't get into the Ajax team, is loaned out to Willem II btw.

These guys might eventually turn out to be decent strikers in the future. Right now I would keep far away from them.

Not many players come through with the kind of background Kane has had, unlikely we'd get 2 of those type of players.

Mason? :p

If their careers carry on as the last season has then Kane will end up having a way way higher career than Mason will. Don't want to turn it into a Mason thread but I didn't think he was anything majorly special whereas Kane could go on to be a regular 20 -30 goals a season player. There aren't many of those around.
 
Evouna plays in a tunsian club and reports link him to both Ahly and Zamalek " egyptian teams " and I don't think he is quality of PL.
 
Another name to consider would be 22 year-old Diego Rolan, of Bordeaux. Uruguayan, can play on the right wing and up front, bagged 13 goals and 4 assists last season, is apparently a very hard worker in terms of tracking back and pressing, and is adept at playing his way into the box from various areas (deep, the wings, just ahead of the area, etcetera), which speaks well of his footballing intelligence. Outside of the boot (a good website when it comes to profiling young talent, imo) has him down as both one of the best U-22 players in Ligue 1 over the course of 2014/2015 and one to watch in the ongoing Copa America. Best of all, the fee being bandied about for the guy is just 4 million quid (apparently Saudi Sportswashing Machine are interested).

Worth a shot?

i read that if he leaves he will only go to a CL club

They all say that

We could offer him 4 times his current salary I expect without flinching

He would also get to play with Kane who from what I'm seeing on Holiday is thought to be the next superstar of the British game

Isn't he considered our best player alongside Kane and Lloris by pretty much everyone?

Only talking about the two lads from Madrid in our hotel who think he is our best player

Keepers don't get shown in highlights makings saves do they (I mean goal highlights) and Kane is still new news to them

The Scandinavians on the other hand absolutely love Kane and think he will be the new beckham
