25 mil £ would a fvcking joke. He's the best striker in the best league in the world. Falcao cost 40 mil € and he's not even playing in the best team in the world's 2nd best league. Something is seriously wrong... Arsenal shouldn't let him go for less than 35-40 mil £.

Totally agree. He's worth at least as much as anyone out there and if we lose him, we best get paid, yo!

Apparently SAF wants to snatch Dortmund's Lewandowski after attending the German cup final live in Berlin and seeing him score a hattrick.
And Yaya Touré is on his way to La Liga apparently.

United needs the following:
A solid defender to cover for Vidic/Ferdinand as they get old. Smalling, Evans, and Jones will be great in the future.
A holding midfielder that can boss the play, like a Roy Keane or Patrick Vieira. The closest player to that now is Daniele De Rossi... Gattuso was good but he's too old now.
Another striker that's an actual threat. While Chicharito can get it done, he doesn't scare teams. Rooney is the only real threat in United's side (minus Valencia). We need someone like an Aguero (whom we should've grabbed a few seasons ago). A fleet poacher with good finishing ability...
Not too much to ask for.

Our midfield talent is lacking. As much as I think Cleverly is a good player, he's just not strong enough to "boss the play". That player should have been Carrick but he's not playing at the level we need. Could Pogba be the answer as an attacking/creative midfielder?
I might get crucified for this, but Chicharito is not a favourite of mine and I do not think is as dangerous as Welbeck. I also hate that he has taken playing time from Berba.
Money will need to be spent this summer.

You'll fast get tired of his lack of control and finesse inside the box like you would expect from a top striker. I can't count the amount of times he has mis-controlled seemingly simple passes in the box where he would have had the opportunity for a quick strike and likely goal. Don't get me wrong, he is valuable but he should/could be a lot more dangerous.
