Why do I find the prospect of us signing Higuain under-whelming?

[PSRB]

class player, done well at Madrid, etc but just can't get excited about it

Prefer Benzema

[Classic Jorge]

He's rather unfussy for a player, I guess

[Remi Garde]

Seriously though, I'd much prefer Higuain to Benzema. For one, he's much better looking.

Then when he comes we'll expect him to be bit **** for a while/or get injured.

[PET]

like Cesc

[Classic Jorge]

a) let it go b) he doesnt want to leave barca c) f**k him, he's a judas traitor d) we didnt even sell him for that

[Remi Garde]

At only ten years late he'd be much more punctual than Jesus.

[Pat Vegas]

Things go up in price.
Can't be paying 1999 prices anymore.

[Pat Vegas]

1) he didn't want to be with us anyway.
2) all the reasons you mentioned
3) we won so many things with him.

Andy Carroll cost 35 million. He may be an anomaly, but 30 million is no longer enough to get the very best players. I mean, City just spent 30 million on a player from the Ukrainian league.

All 3 forced or manipulated their moves away from the club. One was publicly caught doing what I have no doubt at all the other two also did.

2 are Judases, or Judai.

1 is fawned over and looked upon as some kind of prodigal son.

Don’t get it myself.

[Red N White Army]

That they are both slow (and a little fat) as f**k. :shrug: Higauin's record excites me more than Benzema. Neither have that creative spark I think we missed though last few years.

[PET]

who wants to be in London...

Which is odd given the number of ITK stories about him being a done deal in recent months.

[Classic Jorge]

I like Jovetic, dont get me wrong, but to say you'd prefer him over a player who's got better than one in two, having played for madrid since the age of 19, is amazing.

[Hillary]

I can't be doing with all this "Judas" crap.

[PSRB]

have sold him to me

[Classic Jorge]

we're going for Higuain now, OK?

On the plus side, it means we'll get Jovetic

I moved on from the whole pretence of hating Cole many years ago, not long after he moved in fact. The first game was funny enough with the fake notes etc, grown adults still frothing at the mouth 5-6 years later is beyond odd.

He probably or maybe is not a nice person, but then I don’t care nor do I fool myself that all our players are. I am never going to go for a pint with any of them so couldn’t care less.

Cole was a great player in a fantastic side.

The hatred that Nasri seems to generate is also very odd I think.

[Hillary]

us we are supposed to be angry about such matters. Therefore we are.
