Lavezzi is definitely superior to Podolski. However, his price tag of 20 million is somewhat excessive. If we can get Podolski on loan (or something in the region of 8 million Euros) then so be it. However, if we end up paying 12+ million, than Lavezzi is clearly the better option.
No need to @ Him, He's hawking anything BuLi related in this forum like nothing else.
I just wonder if he does that to other team's forums like Man U, Arsenal, etc. or just us.
