rafa looks for strikers with work ethic first???? Ye he went for Kuyt and crouch.,.....but how does anyone know what he would do with £20million plus for a striker.....personally i reckon he will go for the one who can bang it in the net the most!!!

When the jigsaw pieces come togethor and we can get better players on the wings/ful backs and the strikers dont have to do as much .....lets see who he buys then!!

Do you ever think he buys players not because of how good they are, but more that they are versatile and cover defincies in our team?

No, i think he buys strikers who are team players rather than individuals, and you wont find many out and out goalscorers at the top level who play their game for the good of the team.

Would you care to name a striker Rafa has bought who doesnt have a work ethic at the forefront of his game?

Youre correct, nobody really knows what he would do with a 20 million pound striker, but he put a 14 million pound one on the wing so it doesnt bode too well.
I genuinely dont believe that Rafa will buy a striker for that cost in the summer.

i sort of agree and, but as i say it may be more about our deficiencies in our team....Isnt Benitez a confirmed admirer of torres? hardly the best of work ethics? I would argue morientes is hardly a workhorse either!!
