Gonzalo Higuaín (47 apps, 8 goals in CL and 43% chance conversion rate) (24 Viewers)

Fine reasoning.

It was difficult to take you seriously after reading the "Higuain has never been that good" post, you're clearly bullshitting about watching Madrid if you can type that with a straight face.

Wow, Salva I think this maybe the first time you and I will disagree about a striker.

The most clinical striker in the game is not very efficient ?

Just watch him when played well. Mourinho wanted him to play a game he isnt very good at.

As a pure number 9, Higuain is the best player in the world. More clinical then cavani, falcao.

Just watch his 2009/2010 season to see what he can do when played right.

So, you'd say that Llorente-Higuaín would work?

Higuain can play as a winger wonderfully, he was deployed there with Capello/Schuster at times. His crossing is magnificent, too. In a 433, he can easily play on the right hand side. His style of constantly pressing opponents is similar to Pepe's with much more quality and intelligence. I'd say that's why Conte wants him. Conte already pointed out that he cannot play 433 without Pepe, well, Higuain is a huge upgrade and can also play as a center forward in case Llorente isn't available.

Never seen him as anything but a CF. But sounds very interesting.

First of all one cross doesn't make him an amazing crosser, second of all he can't play as winger, he can't dribble at all, his passing is average as best. his best attribute is his movement, His classical striker that misses tons of chances and frustrating when he isn't scoring because he doesn't offer anything else, unlike Karim who's also an averag finisher but offer much more.

Simply untrue.

With Mourinho, when he's on the pitch, he swap positions with Ronaldo during games. Capello was the first one trying him there, then Schuster played him on the right in a 4-3-3.

 

[TheLaz]

Haha.. Higuain is not a winger

 

[K.O.]

Nobody said he is.

Dude Higuain would be an upgrade over all our strikers aside from llorente cause i havent seen him play much

 

[Cheesio]

Simply untrue.

Watch games.

 

[delpiero4life]

So many saying that now because we bought Llorente we can't buy higuian? Is juventus not aloud to have 2 good finishes In the squad?

 

[Gian]

Llorente, Higuain, Vucinic, Giovinco

that´s a world class frontline to choose from and if Conte insists on choosing the striker pair based on our opponent, all 4 of them offer something different.

 

[Zacheryah]

He is, deal with it fool

Higuain's scoring record tells us he's anything but an average finisher.

Cheese has no idea. Nevermind him. Higuain can't finish and he can't take on players .

Didn't say he can't finish, i said he's an average finisher. And i dare you to find 2 or 3 sequences when Higuain dribbeled some players. show me
