Higuain

FFS this isn't happening in time for tomorrow. Can't wait for another night of watching the false 9.

 
Talk on Twitter he's passed his medical. I saw that about 20 mins ago so depends if he's been able to complete the remaining paperwork in time. 

 
Realistically would he even be involved having not even trained with team yet. 

Maybe he would make the bench, but I doubt he would go straight into the team.

Jorginho​

Kante             RLC​

Hudson-Odoi   Higuain   Hazard​

Strongest starting 11 imo. This should get us top 4.

RLC is out for the season is he not?

 
I am probably in a minority but I'm massively underwhelmed by this signing. I accept that we needed to do something and Higuain is hopefully going to be some improvement on what we have, but yet another signing that is at the very tail end of his career and currently out of form.

I wonder why we didn't go and sign the guy that Milan have signed to replace Higuain? He's young and bang in form. Probably something to do with systems I expect.

Piatek is unproven and he could end up as another Bellotti. Higuain is a proven goal scorer that you can't write off playing in an average Milan squad.

I'd rather we didn't splash a load of money on a striker currently and scout properly to look to buy a long term striker in the summer.

I'd take a 31 year old that has proven he can do it in different leagues and who our manager actually wants over a young 6 month wonder any day of the week.

The way I see it, is Higuain's worst in our side should still be better than what Morata gives day in and day out.  I don't see us purchasing Higuain anyways, so this is a win win and we will find a proper striker in the summer (fingers crossed).

tbf i'm not against us purchasing him if things work well over the next 6 months. Ship Giroud out and have Higuain and one other younger striker. We paid £18m for Giroud, £30m on Higuain ain't the end of the world with the way the market has gone if he's banging them in.

It's not ideal but definitely better than forking over 58m for another Morata.  If we do buy Higuain, hopefully then we bring Tammy back into the fold too.
