Better than Shola? I think this guy is better than Cisse almost personally. He's a very hardworking and intelligent player, and £5m for a striker that can play at this level for another 2-3 years is very good I think.
If we sign him I'd be very happy. We still need a winger though to compliment Barfa on the other side and a new CB to compete/replace Saylor.
Give him a year and he'll be as s*** as Shola.
Right, I can say this much I rather spunk £5m on this guy than £5m on Bent.
Personally feel he is a better fit for the team than Bent. Direct, hardworking, pacy, width - attributes that we could do with.
