Benni McCarthy has confirmed he is hoping to win a move away from Blackburn in the January transfer window.

The player's agent revealed last week that McCarthy was unhappy with his lack of action at Ewood Park and was considering his future at the club.

The 31-year-old is well down the pecking order in Sam Allardyce's plans and McCarthy admits he will have to move as he does not suit Allardyce's style of play.

"In my opinion, I'm better than what I see out on the pitch in training but unfortunately I have a coach that prefers a different style of football and I'm not the player that fits his description," said McCarthy.

"That's the only reason I'm not playing - if I had a coach who preferred a player who can hold the ball up and score goals then I would be first choice but unfortunately he wants something different. I can't really be mad or angry about it but it just proves I need to move on."
Interest
Portsmouth have been linked with a move for McCarthy and the former Porto man admits he has discussed the prospect of moving to Fratton Park with South Africa team-mate Aaron Mokoena.

McCarthy has hinted he would be interested in a switch to Portsmouth, but also claimed a number of other clubs in England and Europe are chasing his signature.

"Portsmouth are going through a bad patch but are still a top side. I have discussed them with Aaron," added McCarthy.

"There are other clubs in England and Europe that have shown interest in me, too."


Surely he'd be wprth taking a chance on. He's better than N'Gog, plus would be extra back up. Obviously I'd rather we sign someone like David Villa, but with not much funds apparently available, this could be a bargain.

I'd rather have N'gog in the team.

I'd take him for fuck all. And hopefully he will just be a back up as Torres will play the rest of the season and score 47095847594 goals. But just in case, a back up is needed.

Old Irish money would probably get him.

I'd be happy with him ahead of any attacking player we have after Torres and Gerrard.

He's proven he can score goals when played. But would rafa play him?
 
He can fuck right off.

Here's the thing peoples - He can't even get on for fucking Blackburn.

His attitude stinks.
He hasn't scored more than 10 goals in 3 years.
He hates sitting on the bench.
And he's South-African.

He can suck my balls.
 
I bet Torres wouldn't even get a game for Blackburn, as he is not big/strong/good enough in the air for Sam and his hoofers. McCarthy sees the wonderful Jason Roberts leading the line with brawn (not much brain) and gets pissed off.
I concede his attitude is not great, but he has a point to prove, is mobile, leads the line as opposed to playing between the lines, and has intelligence.
For free. You can suck his massive balls.

Fat Sam bought Anelka Nessie. So the "brawn" argument only goes so far really.

There's a reason why he sits on the bench for Blackburn, and it's not all to do with his attitude. He's done fuck all for years.

No, it's not.

He had one Indian Summer at Blackbrun when he played regularly ans scored goals. See the problem in there; "played regularly".

It's something he wouldn't get with us. Torres will play every game, when fit. It could be argued N'gog would be ahead of him in the pecking order too, leaving poor Sith-Afreekin 'Binny' with even less chances than he currently gets and fails to take at sodding Blackburn.

He's proven time and again that he's not a bench or squad player, which is all we'd even want him for. The attitude thing can't be overlooked either. It's all fair and well to say that cos he's coming to Liverpool he'd wise up and realise his opportunity, didn't work for Bellamy, Pennant or Diouf did it? McCarthy's just as fucking bad.

Besides, he's got the poxy African Nations Cup in January, so wouldn't be available anyway.

Move on.

That would be a problem.... if South Africa had qualified for the finals.

Beat me to it.

Anyways I don't think Benni is all that at all but he is a much better striker than anything we have after Torres and if we could get him really cheap I wouldn't be against it. But of course it would be a gamble.
