it does make you wonder if rafa does sign alves or pennant then where will momo fit into the team? rafa would never play a five man midfield? Or would he?

That stat is misleading. To me a successful cross is one that ends up with a goal being scored.Originally posted by sproutmaskIt wasn't just the most crosses. It was the most Successful crosses of any player in the Prem.. When you've got a player hitting a player all the time in the box with Heskey and co, think what he could be like with Crouch and co.
Pennant had only FIVE assists, yes that rights FIVE assists in the league last year. 1.2M per assist. Give me a break. Spend whatever it takes to get Alves, he is in a different class to JP.The Crushing Machine MKII

He can play as an attack-minded fullback or a midfielder. The reason he plays RB for Sevilla is they have another very talented RM player in Jesus Navas.Originally posted by Jack D RipsBut isnt Alves a RB or wing back. He's not a RM and IMO would be an alternative to Finnan.
If we are looking for a RM then at least thats what Pennant is. Plus he has premiership experience
I doubt Rafa would be looking at splashing out aroundLike blood on iron

Which just shows how crap heskey and Co were last year. With the amount of crosses he gets onto a teammates head/shoulder/knee, there would be a hell of a lot more assists if those balls are hitting Fowler/Crouch/Bellamy.Originally posted by SpeedyGThat stat is misleading.

Second that dudeOriginally posted by nigecardiffi don't mind pennant, if it enables us to sign Kuyt.
I do think Pennant has by all accounts (all of his own valition of course) recevied too much grief about his perosnal life.
Under Rafa I am sure he will come good. Lets give him a chance as I am sure we all will. Ive got a good feeling about this lad with right guidance and team support he can be really special.
Heres hoping if we do get him

Bellamy's career average is about 10 goals
Lurch's is less.

But Fowler can knock them in from crosses Bren, although I dont expect to see him in more than two-thirds of our games next season.
Regardless, I dont think Pennant is the answer, having said that, just any right winger in red standing next to Rafa may give me a seizure of some kind I'll be that excited it's actually happened.
