sweetleftpeg 0 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Ah, panic sets in. He'll be claiming Viduka was 'always my number 2 choice.' Number 2 being the correct choice of words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 46020 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Incidentally, Villa have supposedly made a bid for Saviola and are considering making a move for Tevez. Now who knows if they have a chance of getting either of them, but what I do know is that I don't want fat cat millionaires like that at MY club. Is there anyone that still doesn't want us to become a Sheik's plaything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7169 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 They are a greasy americans plaything though! Id have Viduka tbh. Hes had a good coupkle of seasons and seems to be less injury prone at the minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 46020 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 I'd have Viduka, but I'd have preferred Hasselbaink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 (edited) When Hasselbaink was going cheap, Roeder didn't even know who Martins was. 187153[/snapback] He was always our number one target though, and he fits the bill of having Premiership experience and so on Edited August 30, 2006 by alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordieshandy 0 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 He certainly knows where the goal is, but his attitude is, to say the least, dodgy. Needs to lose a stone but still seems to have a hellish quick turn and shot on him for being the size of a bull elephant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
