I don't believen signing him would be the best option.... short term thing, player who's only going to diminish rather than improve.
Kuyt is probably the better option at the moment... and I reckonn if we can't get him for a reasonable fee we'll not sign anyone.
Why should we.... we have Bellamy, Crouch, Fowler, Pongolle, Garcia and Kewell all capable of playing up front, plus improved options in the wide areas of midfield meaning we can operate with one forward and Gerrard or even Zenden in advanced positions... not to mention the fact that Gonzalez can play as a forward or the fact that Mellor, Le Tallec and possibly this Greek bloke we're "trailing" might be at the club.
No it's not ideal... but we shouldn't be getting ourselves in to a panic about it either. The last thing we need is to buy a striker who contributes nothing to the team other than goals... and if we can't sign a striker at a decent age and capable of adding more than just goals for a reasonable price in this window... then we should leave it.
