Village Idiot Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 A couple south-american strikers coming from Holland did allright too. Still think €25m is a bit of a massive gamble, even if Suárez looks at least a decent player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Logic Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 As memory serves I was disappointed with Suarez in the world cup, not for his lack of skill (he had plenty) but his propensity for cheating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 In less glamorous (but taller) news, Zigic heavily linked with a return to Racing Santander in our press. €500k loan fee with a €6m purchase option, if Racing's takeover is finished in time.

Mr. Snrub Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I always loved Roy Makaay. One of the most under rated players in recent years. What a finisher. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnypd Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Makaay was definitely under-rated. seem to remember he scored a hat-trick the same night rooney did in the champion's league, no-one noticed cos of that. some other good strikers who made the move from dutch league - Larsson, Gudjohnsen. Van Hooijdonk would've been a success had he not been an arse. Litmanen always looked good too, despite never playing quite as well outside of the netherlands.

Village Idiot Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Roy Maakay was immense for Deportivo. Not underrated at all, at least around here. Tristán/Maakay, what a partnership back then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
