If we get rid of Ade this week I could see us moving for SB.

Lets be honest he ticks a lot of boxes and Levy doesn't mind shelling out for the younger talent - and he's proven in this League already, versatile, pacey and has played with Kane for the under 21s.

In fact, Berahino has a better record than Kane for the U21s! Berahino has scored 10 in 11 games, while Kane has 'only' scored 8 in 14 games.

IMO I think ur right pinky (y)

I would think he would work well in our sytem and add some extra directness to our attack.

What boxes does he tick ? He's not the type to play the drop deep, hold up, lone 9 like Kane does in Poch's system. He's not a wide forward. His all round play is pretty one dimensional. He's basically Defoe with 3 more touches a game and 3 less offsides.

The only box I see him ticking is the one many of our targets this summer seem to be ticking. The half decent but limited box. And again, I think we players here - even Chadli could play the role better and has a similar scoring record per 90 min - who can fill the remit better.

Liking the Jasper news. If it's Villa buying I reckon the Ade fee might be more than we think - possibly even 8-10m. Villa are so poorly run, so naive. Owners just don't know what they're doing and can't compete in the PL sharktank - especially when Timmy's unhappy and begging for signings. Made the classic transfer error of letting it be widely known their star player was going for a huge sum before lining up replacements (see also: Liverpool FC). Levy's momma di'int raise no fool.
