Fabio Borini

[Pablo]

People on here made their minds up very quickly about Fabio.

I've probably been his biggest critic on here .

I still don't think he's good enough for us. I'd just hope we now get a decent fee for him and cash in. He's better than Aspas as an option from the bench, but that's not saying an awful lot.

I think he's found his level at Sunderland.

[Norbs]

£11 million plus Shaggy tax would be great

[PTP]

ideally you want two options per position. Especially if we are back in champions league next year.

so front any three from the below six (in no particular order)

Suarez
Sturridge
Sterling
Coutinho
Konoplonko
Borini


i'd be pretty happy with that

borini i'm unsure about - he isn't good enough to be a top starter - but you need someone who over the course of the season can come in and cover/feature in about 15 to 20 games (if in europe) and score say 8 to 10 goals.

Problem with borini as already pointed out, if he doesn't play regularly he really goes of the boil

[rudedog]

Are people forgetting that he was injured for almost all of last season?

Not sure Dan Perkins would agree with that.

Keep at it though Pabs.

So you wan someone (whoever it is) who isn't good enough to command a regular starting place to also score 1 in 2?

Yeah ok

[Shaggy]

Yeah if we sell Borini it gives us a problem. What striker is going to want to sign for us knowing he will be 3rd choice and would hardly play given Suarez & Sturridge are top dogs? If Borini actually wants to stay we should keep him. I imagine he might want to go cos he's had a taste of regular first team action and he's not going to want to go back to being a bit part player on the bench every week.

[Liverpool]

apparently hes mentioned a few times he wants to come back

[Shaggy]

Hope so. I can't imagine we'll be able to attract anyone much better to come and be back-up.

[Pablo]

I'd try and sign someone young and up and coming. No idea who like Luis Muriel maybe? I realise that might be a stretch, but someone of that ilk. Let him really fight it out for a place. See if he's up for it. Keep Sturridge and Suarez on their toes.

We'll win nothing with Borini.

how can you not be happy with the front 6 in ptps post

How about a 22-year old on the fringes of the Italian national squad?

Nah.

[Pablo]

I want MORE goals ok, I want MORE! I want ALL THE GOALS!

Nah, those bottom three don't score many goals though sadly. I do think it'd be nice (albeit somewhat of a luxury) to have another goalscorer on the bench. At times it feels like we lack a goalscorer on the bench. Ideally, I'd like to remedy that.

Am I ask too much?

No, no I'm not

[meffin]

We should sell Borini and buy Hernandez from Mancs
