Parky Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 It is becoming clear that Kuyt and Kalou ( K2) have been respective bad purchases not just with respect to the sums involved, but also that they aren't really looking like they are suited/going to do it in the PL. Compare these two to Martins who has has put in solid performances in amongst the the bad games which is normal in a new league and taking into consideration his age. Although if £15m was offerred for Martins I'd be tempted to sell, he has by and large been far better value than the striker Liverpool and Chelsea have recently added to their books. What think you?

Guest alex Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I don't think it is clear yet, on either count. I rate Kuyt and I think Kalou will turn out to be a good player too. And I'm by no means convinced by Martins who despite probably keeping us up with his goals is vastly overrated by many imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I bet Liverpool are gutted they got Kuyt instead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I am wrong, remember him moving and people saying he was the one that made Kuyt the goalscorer he was and thought it was quite cheap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isegrim Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Kuijt actually has impressed me a lot. His goal return isn't too bad and his workrate and movement is exceptional. To say that Martins has been a better value is kidding yourself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difficult to play any worse than he did against much lesser opposition. I didn't think either Kuyt (in particular) or Kalou were all that bad last night but I wouldn't judge a player on one match either _ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sniffer Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Man city? What about Sunday. Would you fork out 15 mill based on that performance? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
