I just wouldn't want Higuain to fail for the sole reason that it would be the equivalent of setting almost 100 million euro on fire.

Not true for the first duo and doubt it for the last duo but the other players are exceptional and played in utterly dominating teams so they are the exception and not the rule. You should not mention Mandzukic among them at all. You are overrating him too much. And this will hardly happen in Italy.
just checked, Gomez had 19 but after missing half the season and starting only 9 games in BL, id gladly take that number from Higgy (if 3-4 of those are in the CL) and 22 from Mandzu (the number he scored in the treble season for Bayern). Dzeko scored 26 goals, 8 assists, Grafite 28 goals, 10 assists (league only) in 2008/09 when Wolfsburg wrecked the BL. about those teams being dominant, yeah they were, but so are we now, and i see no reason why it would be impossible for them to both get 20+ in all competitions with the right rotation (+ the 4-5 games they will play together). we are lucky to have 2 top CFs, one isnt in form currently but if he hits his best around February/March and finishes the season strong i wont complain if Higgy outscores him for sure

and since you mentioned Italy, Etoo had 15+ goals and Milito 20+ in 2010, with Balotelli also coming close to 15 goals in all competitions. Ibra had 20+ for inter while Julio Cruz got 15+ in 2008. Ibra had 21 and Pato 16 for Milan in 2011. high scoring CF duos arent as uncommon as you think

You get it wrong with constantly putting Mandzukic among much more gifted and well rounded players. He is not a top CF anymore and needs much more service than most of the strikers you mentioned. Higuain will not be happy with rotation and I don't see the point as Mandzu is shit for me and should not take playing time from the Argentine. He should be fourth choice striker after even Pjaca. Gonzalo and Mario should not play together ever again without support from Dybala or Pjaca imo.
not gonna read it all, but Mandzu & Gomez were a great CF pairing.Mandzukic scored 20+ goals in 3 of the last 4 seasons (statby@Post Ironic) so hes well capable of doing it. the question is, will he hit form and when. realistically he will have 10-15 goals, doesent mean i cant hope he scores more than Higgy. i was hoping Zaza would outscore Mandzu last season and Morata would outscore Llorente the season before (this one actually happened), its not something i was wrong about
it is, because this guy thinks i wish Higuain to fail or to get injured because i said around early september that i hope Mandzukic outscores him. then he goes on how its playstation scenario for 2 CFs to score 20+ goals in the same season.
to me, the only thing that matters from Higuain (and the rest of the team) is the CL. id gladly take Higuain to not score in any non CL game until the end of the season (if he scores 3-4 in the CL knock outs) over him scoring 40 Serie A goals anyday.

Higuain has 6 goals in 396 minutes in Serie A. A goal every 66 minutes. That is crazy.
