He's the Argentinean striker who plays now for Lazio, used to play in Birmingham. it's been reported that if Lazio wants to buy him, they can pay 8m before April 30. after that, he could negotiate with any team.

Decent player. I havent watched alot of Italian Football. But from his time in England, a very set piece taker, and his goal against Roma recently was excellent.

Is he a target man or a runner? We have enough runners. We need a strong target man to feed the likes of Torres and Gerrard running off him.

Torres is a target man. we need a skillful player who could score goals out of nothing. Zarate fits as an attacking right midfielder.

Torres isn't a target man in the true sense of the term. A target man is someone who holds the front position and has great strength on the ball. You use them to feed the faster attacking players.

Don't think emperor would agree Joel!!!

Anyway - Torres has aspects of target man about him. He is big, strong and holds the ball up well. In addition to being lightning fast, skillful and with the ability to beat a player.

That's why he's the best striker in the world.

We need a mix of the two - I think a bit of pace up front, and someone who can bring others into play by holding it up.

Crouchy was a target man, and as much as he's a cult hero, we lacked the outlet of pace from a ball over the top. Which meant defences could play higher up the pitch and crowd out the midfield, thus Xabi and Stevie wouldn't get time on the ball.

We need pace up front to stretch a game.

One half of my FM2008 attacking dream-team!! All we need now is Eddie Johnson from Fulham/Cardiff.

Henri Saivet!!! He is my legend. (I also paid £27.5M for Sergio Aguero... worth every penny, and more!).
