do you really believe he will improve our attacking play? his decent touch will be an improvment on the ball bouncing off kuyt. but then what is he exactly going to do with the ball. he's slow. he's going to be closed down faster than he's been used to in spain. what are you expecting out of him? all he will do is control the ball and pass it infield to lucas. a few passes later and there'll be a hoof up to torres. wow.
the more important difference is our right winger won't track back as often as kuyt used to. in terms of this season and trying to finish 4th, thats the last thing we need.

While we are desperately lacking in pace in our team, I'm willing to bet that you know fuck all about who he is or what he offers and are just speculating based on one comment that he isn't lightning fast. Am I right?
