Bill Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 "Everton will ask Manchester City for the loan of Roque Santa Cruz in the New Year, as they look to arrest their poor form in front of goal this season". New year, cant see it cos if we leave it till then, we will either be beyond help and still lying at the bottom of the league, or we will be in the top half with 4 or 5 fit strikers.

Matt Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 ARGH! GOD NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! WE DO NOT NEED ANOTHER INJURY-PRONE "STRIKER"! Christ, he makes Saha look robust.

duncanmckenzieismagic Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 When fit he is better than any of the strikers at the club and if a loan is all we can afford I dont see why not. He would have a point to prove to City which should make him hungry (not in the Yak "who ate all the pies?" type hungry either!)which cant be a bad thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 (edited) When fit he is better than any of the strikers at the club and if a loan is all we can afford I dont see why not. He would have a point to prove to City which should make him hungry (not in the Yak "who ate all the pies?" type hungry either!)which cant be a bad thing I heard Jo when i read that... The only reason he is valued so highly is because Hughes has a boner for him, its that simple. IF he is fit hes very good, not amazing. I would rather have the Yak and thats saying something...

Lowensda Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 When the Yak or Saha are fully fit, they are two of the best strikers in the prem but the argument is that Cruz is never fit, so we wont benefit either way? If you want a good, fit striker who isnt seeing much game time, a loan for a player like Benzema would be a benefit and improvement on what we have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a good, fit striker who isnt seeing much game time, a loan for a player like Benzema would be a benefit and improvement on what we have Saha is never fit and hasnt played well since he got his new contract anyway and Yak hasnt done it for over 2 years so they cant seriously be considered as two of the best strikers in the Prem I wouldnt put either in the top 20 strikers in the Prem. Benzema would be a great idea if we could persuade Real to pay his wages and convince him to ignore European football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Strikers need to play regular to be sharp, they need to be sharp to be on top of their game and score regular. We only have one striker without any overriding fitness or injury concerns and he ain't good enough. Santa Cruz, big No No Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Santa Cruz was amazing at Blackburn, but since signing for Manchester City he's not done anything at all. I woulden't mind him on loan but that's only at a push.. we could do some much better .. like Alex Nyarko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa Cruz isn't good enough and Adebayor will be loaned out to a foreign team I reckon. Not to mention we couldn't afford his wages even with City paying some, and I doubt he'd want to come to us.

Bailey Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 I cant stand Adebayor... HE has all the physical attributes to be one of the best strikers in the world yet between the ears he is thick as shit and only gives a toss about himself.
