Do you honestly believe it has the potential to be that?
With all the talk of them being the best in prem, would you swap Roon and Tevez for them? As I said before, they stand out because no other team seems to play a proper 2 forward partnership. Chelsea don't, Arsenal don't, Liverpool don't and we switch between 433 and 442. Even then both Rooney and Tevez had similar goal returns as Keane-Berb in the league.

If people had told me when Berbatov first came to Spurs, that we would be paying 25m+ for him two years later, I would not have believed that as well. Similarly I don't know what kind of quality Arshavin and Milto will show. If they play to their reputation and in russian's case, reach the potential he is being touted to have, they could be better than Keane-Berba.
