Charlton - Anders Svensson

Can’t work out if you’re doing bits here or not, but he’s legitimately one of the best strikers in Europe. If City are genuinely after Sanchez why not just go for a younger, better version? Not that they’re like-for-like.

There’s a real dearth of elite strikers in Europe. They’re all either past their peak, picking up niggling injuries, or not for sale. Strongly think City should sign a player for the system rather than trying to replace Aguero, which is an impossible job as he’s been the very best out-and-out forward of his era, even ahead of Lewandowski.
