Si.

If he's not a first-choice striker, think of all the havoc he could bring off the bench...even when he's onside!

Totally agree with your assessment WSE, moutinho was my #1 wish from a needs stand point this offseason. A great ball winner in front of that back 4 would be huge. Agree about Kagawa, looks really good right now. Definitely excited about this season, epsecially offensively!

Also welbeck and Chicharito are very quality backups up top regardless of what others on here will say.

It would look like a 4-1-2-1-2 out on the field, but I think that version of the 4-4-2 would be the best formation. Six guys with defensive mentality, five guys with offensive mentality. Fluid enough that Kagawa and the wingers can drop to play defense in a pinch and provide pressure...and fluid enough that this defensive mid can push up in attacking situations as a safety valve/switch-the-field passer.

And, also, Valencia has experience at RB if we're not ready to go in with Jones.

Or, if you want to go get an established right back (they would usually be cheaper), Jones can transition into that defensive mid of the future.

What do you think of this new kid from Chile that we are signing? Angelo Henriquez is his name. Scored 11 goals in 17 matches for Universidad de Chile last year.

Great signing for the future. With Welbeck still improving, we could see another good tandem down the road.

I'm not too knowledgable of the current academy strikers, but this guy comes in with a lot of buzz. I like that.

EDIT: Off the top of my head, the young strikers I know of are Bebe, Joshua King and Will Keane. He has more success than the three of them combined competitively.

I liked their first album, but they've sold out for the mainstream popularity in their last few works.
