No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no
that deal values berahino way too high.
townsend is young English attacking establish PL with England caps and goals... his market worth is 15m probably
lennon is establish pl, in his 'prime', English, England caps to his name - 8-10 mill.
that values berahino around 25 mill which is madness

Berahino and £10m for either and I'd deal, as long as it was ok'd by Poch.

I call bullshīt. What has Berahino shown consistently over the last 18 months as evidence that he's clearly superior to what we've already got? People are too quick to jump all over a purple patch of 2-3 months and hype them up to something they're not. We need to stop filling up our squad with 'squad' players - any new players coming in should be better than what we've got unless we've got real quality in that position already.
I would rather keep Townsend and Lennon, Berahino is massively over rated and worth around £10m max

You could say the same about Kane.
Both a similar age. Both broke through last season and are making strides this season. Both great records for Eng U21. Both scored about the same number of goals in 2 seasons.
Only difference is that Kane is playing for the better team.
We need that pace option up front, but i think it depends on whether the lad can also do a job from wide, like a Remy, or if he is purely a pace merchant who can finish. If the latter then he would be a good option to have but not necessarily first choice which means that £15m would be a very full valuation for a young player.
He is also linked with Liverpool who have Sturridge, Borini, Lambert, Balotelli. DO they really need another, even if Borini moved on?

Well if we're going to compare with Ade and Soldado, then goals for one thing. Neither of those 2 have been prolific this season. Berahino has 13 goals in 24, and not to mention he has only played the full 90 minutes in 2 of his last 7.
He secondly has age on his side.
We should keep Townsend.
But Lennon can go. And ADE.
I'd give Soldado. this season to get on track.
