From that point of view, Owen, Berbatov, Santa Cruz and a few of the other names already mentioned in the other threads fit the bill.

Well age does not neccessary means experience my friend. Take Eagles as an example. He is 22 but with little first team experience. Rooney is also 22 but he have been playing week in week out for years, he has 42 caps with England and ample CL experience. Would you put (experience wise) Eagles and Rooney at the same level?In my opinion SAF will be first searching for that special young talent who would add something to the side. If he fails on doing so then he will turn to second or third options ie either to an experience head or else to a young striker with great potential and some experience. With so many strikers on the market/wanting a move (Huntelaar, Aguero, Adriano, Villa, Etoo, Berbatov, Johnson, Crouch, Saha, Amauri, Toni etc) I believe that it will be more of a buyer's market this time. I wouldnt be suprised if we end up doing a bargain.
