Why sign maxi in january than a striker ?

Disregarding everything else you said as it cant be proved one way or the other.

Btw i think Johnson is a top player, but if money was that tight then perhaps he could have signed a cheaper alternative and brought another body in to boost the woeful striking options.

Its indefensible to me mate.

But Ben ,he's been accused in the past by alot on here (not saying you mate ) for buying the cheaper option and not spending on supposed quality . You can't have it both ways.

He signed a right midfielder when we were imo desperate for a striker and then plays him on the left 

Baffles me even more mate.

I also think Maxi will prove to be a decent player, i just think he doesnt identify the weaker areas of the squad and prioritise them.

I don't know of any striker that's better than what we have , which isn't saying much i know .That he could have signed on a free .

would a january striker worth 0m quid be worth it?

No, imo. not with torres returning, kuyt, gerrard and ngog in the sqaud and jovanovic coming in the summer

we know from experience how hard it is to get rid of freebie strikers once you have them

[Avi Cohen]

I don't think Rafa's priorities lie with strikers. We play one up front regardless of who we're playing - that doesn't sound to me like a manager who is keen to score a lot of goals. We're set up not to concede and then maybe snatch one.

well that wasn't working for the first half of this season for sure... 


averaging 2 goals / game , but shipping about 1.5 goals/game isn't a recipe for success

the last 9 games since then have seen us ship only 2 goals, now with the return of torres, bennyuoun would be nice to see us rack up the GF column a bit

I think donovan that everton got and gudjohnson are both comfortably better and thats just off the top of my head.

A certain Robbie Keane also went on loan 

Also Mido is better who West Ham signed on loan i think.

aye mate but gudjonsen is getting (quoted) 100k+ a week and his record even in title winning teams at chelsea / barca is far inferior to kuyt!


mido     interesting ....


Donovan is a fair point (possibly) as he has a bit more energy about him - but i'm not a big fan, he has a shocking record outside the states

You were indicating that Jovanovitch would turn our fortunes around and I am simply stating that that was what Aquaman was supposed to do and hasn't.

BTW £20 million+ on Aquaman and £18 million on Johnson are not exactly peanuts.

Er no I didnt. I said a few more players of his ilk and we`ll not have a bad a season next year not we`ve signed this guy so alls good.
I was asked why we didnt bring in a striker in jan and I answered as best I could, I dont see why your bringing Aquilani and Johnson into it.
You cant discuss this wthout the gaol posts being constantly moved it seems.
