Yeah plus he's Serie A proven, he managed to score 7 and 8 in 2 years with Pogba Pirlo Vidal midfield behind him.

These are qualities you are describing. His actual output when presented with chances is just about good. That's not the case usually with players described as Bombers.
Like nonsonoqui said, Morata is a good tactical option. As a prima punta for a team in Serie A that desires to be in the mix for the Scudetto, I doubt he'd be enough.

Make no mistake, we aren't gonna be anywhere close to Juventus until we get a striker who can GUARANTEE 20+ goals in the league. We haven't had one since Zlatan. Morata is certainly not the answer. Belotti or Aubameyang both could potentially be the answer.

so why is he always a sub?

Because Juventus and Real Madrid already had great strikers. He was mainly used as backup, never actually got many chances to prove himself

Give him 90 mins every game and you will see. Much better option than Auba, it's between him and Belotti, but still Id go for Alvaro. That's my point of you

Napoli slipped Mertens in there just fine as a false 9. It's all about the midfield.

Aubameyang is the answer.....
He's at a really high level now. I was skeptical about him losing his pace over the next few years....but he doesnt even rely on it so much these days....
Hcan score with head...both feet...inside the box...half chances....use his pace to burn defenders.... hes much much better than moratta currently.....He almost guarantees 20+ goals...
not to mention hes finished top scorer in the bundesliga as well...outscoring lewandowski...

I think all 3 of Auba, Morata and Belotti probably fit in the same price range. Currently 60-70m. In terms of salary demands the order is probably Auba, Morata, and Belotti way behind.

Top 4 for sure, but I think we would need another big time midfielder and an actual bench of competent reserves to compete for the scudetto next season. We currently have a pretty bad bench. Right now Juve and Napoli could fill in some reserves into their starting XIs and wouldn't have issues.

Really any striker out of the 3 is good to have. Now are they all overpriced? yes sure but what other option do we have?
Milan will have to overpay in order to sign a quality player and w need to do that to get the ship moving. Auba for me is the safest bet, Morata will contribute greatly in the game play he is a smart player and Belotti has an insane ability to score goals and he's a true fighter (remember how he ripped us apart in the return game).

The kid Dolberg at 19 is more talented than Belotti will ever be. Plus he's already playing in his first major final. After that dumb contract Belotti signed, he's quite content to remain at a provincial club. Until his valuation drops to 40m, we should stay clear.

Mertens has always been a very clever forward with a goalscoring instinct, supported by two great wing forwards. I'd be okay to have a front three like that - then we dont need a proper CF agreed.
But Suso-Morata-whoever else is miles behind such a front three.

Napoli also has a midfield that distributes the ball pretty well for their front 3.

With that front 3, we'll be fighting for 4th spot with Lazio.

Why argue about strikers, 60m for either 3 and we should all be happy. Just remember fucking Pavoletti.

My worry if Morata is Montella's first choice is once again the same worry that I have always had about Montella. He's a little too obsessed with pretty football. He wants his team to walk the ball into the net every single time. He must look to build a team that can have a plan A, B and C.

Any of Morata, Belotti, and Aubemayang would be incredible. Belotti is my preference because he's the youngest and I think he has all of the tools to be a great Serie A Striker for 6+ years. He's unproven at a higher level, but right now we need someone to bang in goals to get us into the top 4.
I'm not particularly concerned with the position, though. We need to continue to upgrade the midfield and LB/RB or LWB/RWB for whatever Montella is planning. I still think he's going for a 442, but time will tell.
It SOUNDS like we've got Moose, Kessie, and Rodriguez almost locked up- that's already by far our best transfer window since the Ibrahimovic one.

We would be lucky to have any 3 of Auba, Morata or Belotti.

Fassone and Mirabelli made a take it or leave it offer for Keita and Biglia for 40m that is valid for 1 month. Fassone and Mirabelli have secured agreements with both agents of Keita and Biglia. Lotito will attempt to renew both one more time or else he will be forced to sell instead of losing them for nothing. Milan's offer is currently the most convincing.

Keita would accept Milan or Juve, but first Lotito must accept.

That's in our DNA, though, and why (in addition to Juventus corrupting the league) we've always been good in Serie A but greater in Europe. Give me a champagne Milan that wins the CL a couple of times every decade over a boring team that grinds out wins. We are here to watch attractive men conquer Europe.
