actually, the chances of us getting villa is higher than that of us getting toni, though both are pretty slim.
coming back to the subject, toni is a good finisher but lacks pace (as evident in the game against USA, he was substituted to inject more pace in italy's frontline)
with the imminent loan of cisse back to france, what we need now is pace upfront. fowler and crouch, our 2 exisiting first team frontmen arnt exactly sprinters. toni is also too close to 30 for my liking, would prefer to see someone abt 24-26 coming in. we aint got the financial power of chelski, who can spend 30mil to buy a 30 year old player (although proven at all levels) dun see us taking the risk, splashing out 20+mil for a player like toni.
