outside of maybe real madrid, do we not have the best cadre of forwards in the world?
we've got some issues with 3 of the 4 for sure, but realistically, they just banged in a shitload of goals and won the league.
An upgrade is an upgrade, but i can tell you whichever new fellas we swap them out for, they'll likely find some issues or challenges as well given that only 1-2 are going to play a match.
Plenty of games to go around, but collecting 3-4 world class or nearly world-class forwards on one roster isn't exactly easy business.
i'd prefer time and money spent on a wide player, cover for Barry and a CB. we nail those three slots and our forward story if it remains the same and no one goes off the boil -- i know, i know, but let's assume they've grown this year and will come out with huge bollocks after winning the league -- we'll be ready to try and defend our keep.
cheers
