Blue Shite in for Huntelaar ??

[LFC Brian]

I can smell a failed medical here

 

Liverpool Echo.co.uk - Everton FC - News - Everton FC in the hunt to buy Dutch striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar

 

Sorry cant post article my computer in work has Bad Aids

[higgo]

How many clubs has he been at in the last year?

 

Something obviously isn't right, or maybe he's just not good enough.

urm... Madrid sold him to Milan as part of their 'get rid of the Dutch players cos we need more Spanish players' scheme - so 1

 

or if you are counting the year 2009 (rather than 2009-2010 season) then 2

[WaltonRed]

He's more than good enough.

 

I'll be gutted if he goes to the Shite.

[shaunstrudwick]

i'd like to think that Milan are stupid enough to entertain the proposed Babel -> Huntelaar swap - but they will shoot us down imo

Didn't they only sell Snieder out of their Dutch contingent? Well in genius.

 

You'd like to think they'd keep a player they spent big money on just 6 months prior regardless of nationality.

no - cos they sold at least Huntelaar & Robben also

Madrid aren't exactly well known for their 'sensible' approch to transfers are they

[higgo]

Neither are Milan then by the looks of things. He's that good he's being fobbed off by two big clubs in the space of a season.

don't think that Milan want him to leave - but he wants to play more regularly

 

i'm guessing that with Pato and Ronaldinho over there the chances of starting a lot of games are limited

 

not that i make a point of watching Milan like

[WaltonRed]

He'd score goals in our team.

[shaunstrudwick]

i agree

[grahamlfc]

Who in their right mind would join them??

[Red Phoenix]

Who in their right mind would join them??

 

Nobody, none of their players were in their right minds when they joined, that's the only reason they ever ended up there.

I never did get why we didn't sign any of the Dutch contingent from Real, they are all pretty usefull. I rate Sneider big time. I feel that they could all do a job here.

None of them wanted to come here? We couldn't afford to pay them?

[myrlas]

I pretty much doubt that would have been enough. He's a poacher/finisher, and that's it.

 

Modern footy expect strikers to be a mix of Ronaldo anno Barcelona, Usain Bolt, a brick house and Gerry Kasparov.

 

Poaching at Ajax and poaching at Liverpool are two totally different things.

[TommyW]

why hasnt he kicked on from the promise he showed early on, is it a personality thing? people say he's talented but if thats the case why has his career stalled?

 

a common criticism is that he just seems to hang around waiting to tap one in and doesnt offer much of a threat or even work hard outside the box, is that fair?

[DiddisSillyRun]

The last thing this team needs is a goal poacher, we need someone who can create a goal to poach.

I cant remember a Liverpool team that looked less likely to score during so much of so many games than this one.

[Antynwa]

Failed medical written all over him

without Gerrard and Torres in the team you would be correct - but with Gerrard and Torres and Huntelaar all playing to me that would mean more goals as quite often there is no one in the box to finish off moves

ballpoint or permanent marker? the latter is a bit harsh as it hampers his chances at another club.

If he passes the medical, they'll cover his pen that he will sign the contract with in snake poison causing him to have a fit.

 

Cue David Moyes.

 

'Well as you can see, even though this signing didn't come off it's a signal of our intentions, though the risk of him gaining snake poison was clearly too much of a risk'

Don't be silly. That pen would be worth a fortune when auctioned on their offal. I bet the person who bought Jo's pen is happy with their purchase.

In all seriousness though, what would you do with it?

 

Pride of place in the mantle piece?

 

Use it yourself?

 

Shove it in the loft?

 

If someone gave me the pen Voronin signed his contract with I'd burn it in some sort ritual.
