Pedro would be a great signing but he's not what we need right now IMO, we need a proper striker that isn't Balotelli, Lamert, Borini or Benteke!

Who would you buy thats available then, or that would come to us?

I have to admit, I think the best we'll get in this current situation is Benteke. I also think it's nailed on we'll get him as soon as the little ****bag ****s off.
 
Do we though?

Interchanging front 3/4 of Frimy, Pedro, Cout & Ibe/Markovic/Lallana should give us more movement & chance of goals.. Pedro has a decent goal scoring record. That should cope until Sturridge is back to give a proper CF option.

Heck with those lost providing chances, even Balotelli might get 5 goals <yikes>

Yes! I never said we needed a target man, we don't. We need a striker; aka someone that can put the ball in the net on a regular basis!

Oh, and **** Balotelli, I'd rather play Shame Long!!!

I'd rather go for Pedro for £30m (although think he'd be cheaper) than Benteke for £30m.

Frimy, Cout & Pedro is a better front 3 on same wavelength than Firmy, Cout & Benteke.

Well, that part is subjective. I'd say Aubameyang but no doubt others will say its unrealistic. I wanted Tevez but that boat as sailed (not that it was ever going to happen)

Pedro wouldn't be the worst signing but I think it would leave us short on goals again if we get him in instead of a striker (not target man)

Half decent goal scoring record for a wide player

Can't argue with that but Benteke should be the level setter!
 
Surprised at everyone rating Pedro. He never kicked on from what he promised. Did enough to stick around at Barca (yeah I'm aware that its quite impressive) but he has never been first choice. Maybe one season where he was supposed to break out of his shell but he never did.

Barcelona are not nearly as much of a threat when Pedro plays. Still a decent player but he's got a hint of Aaron Lennon about him - "oh he's young and he will come good next year" until you realise he's 28 and never did.
