Big Geordie Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 According to today's Journal, he's been offered to us, along with some other English and Italian clubs. Seems as if he's deemed surplus to requirements at Real. So, would any of you's have him here? His record is quite impressive in Spain, and whilst he had a bit of an up and down time at Arsenal, he may be worth a look. He's 26 (so not too old), but the wages might be a problem if the club are looking to cut down costs. No actual quotes, as ever though. Merely more speculation.

Disco Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Sure he was quoted when at Arsenal that he didn't think much of the north of England. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stozo Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Depends on the price. He's better than Smith but I wouldn't pay anything over £4m becuase he hasn't played at his best for 3 years now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I would take him, he was world class in the Copa America last season and has been ok when he has played. Then again the only player who is world class playing 15 minutes a game has been Cesc in this eurocup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And anyone who doesn't take those points into consideration and realise he's not for us is officially insane. NEXT! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Deep456 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 He fits the bill: 1) Can play as a big targetman upfront on his own. 2) Has got bags of international experience. 3) Still relatively young. 4) Top 4 reject. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
