    Not sure about this one, these south american deals never seem to work out.

    Just dont think alot of them like the british style.

    The guy has a decent scoring record but that is America not Europe.

    If it was a loan deal why not, we have nothing to lose.

    Think its alot of pish anyway to be honest.

    Look at Wigan, they've got some good South Americans like Rodallega and Figueroa. They used to have Palacios and Valencia too, who are quality.

    "Hunskelper" is not a JVoH-type. Just because he is 6"2 does not make him a target man.

    Why is that concept so hard for people to grasp!?

    I've always found your dad's bosses aunties neighbour's best mates dug to be quite accurate!
    Besides - I didn't say it was GOING to happen, I said many on Twitter saying it and nothing more. It's a rumour thread, not a done deal thread mate!:50:

    he terrorised defences in the EPL its just he couldn't finish when he'd done all the hard work
    He's shown he can finish in with his goals record in S America and 15 goals in 33 internationals is a great record especially when u consider most of those games will be against all the South American nations, there's no Andorra's or San Marino's over in that continent

    I can assure everyone that he is a very good player.. I don't know what happened at Birmingham, but I would love to see him here.

    No chance SPL teams give any EPL teams a run for their money mate.

    The same SPL teams who couldnt beat Peterhead, Ayr or Ross County at home on Saturday? Or what about the team who took until the 90th minute to put away the mighty Elgin?

    The SPL is * poor and as much as i dont like the Enlgish you do have to respect their brand and they do have the best league in the world.


    If we can get Benitez it would be a massive coup - i'd imagine it would be on a loan which i'd have no problem with as he would definetly do the business for however long we can get him.

    From what i seen, very good linking up player, can drag defenders everywhere, got some pace on him, however cant finish at all, thats why birmingham didnt bother with him

    I thought they wanted to sign him, but it fell apart.

    I also have a feeling that if this happens Juarez might go in the other direction? or maybe we loan chucho and they loan Juarez? maybe they lack midfielders, and got a bunch of quality strikers, or he might be on some massive wages..
