Personally i'm glad. £12m plus on a striker who only has 4 top flight goals is too much of a risk. I know he's been in and out of the team but still 4 goals and an injury hit career with Bayern suggest that he would have been a massive gamble.

The more and more i think about the strikers we've been linked with (huntelaar, podolski, zigic etc) I'd much sooner us sign Jermain Defoe and/or Peter Crouch. I'd prefer Defoe....at least we know they can both score in england.

I just dont see Sven signing Defoe. He obviously doesn't rate him that highly or he would have played him more for England.
Crouch? Now thats a different matter.


Yes, all right.. Christ Almighty! It's like walking down a corridor and answering the door in Nazi Germany!

I concur about defoe-he'd have prolly taken him to the world cup ahead of Walcott if he liked him. Crouch? Mebbe. Owen? still mebbe I think (in terms of sven likeyness)

Too often, we lose sight of lifes simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and bitch-slap that mother....pass it on.
