a lot of people. there's value there if you look hard enough. Look at what Mark hughes has done - signed benni mccarthy and santa Cruz for 7m in total. they probably scored 35 to 40 goals this season between them. Michael Owen would probably cost 7m, fabiano about the same, Ashton 7/8m,Gudjohnsen 7/8m, yakubu for 11/12m.Imagine there are people in here who think that there are no decent strikers around for less then 18m.
SAF might really rate Benzema, but I don't think he will pay crazy money. we've been down this road with Lyon before for Diarra, essien and went thanks, but no thanks. He will probably sell for 28-30m. fergie might pay 20m as he seems to be a major talent. but, he signed Tevez this season and you don't want to be rotating all the time.
We either sign a good young striker (20/21) with potential or a more experienced option at a cheaper rate. Personally, I'd go for a more experienced player like Ashton, Owen, fabiano, gudjohnsen, Santa Cruz, Yakubu
