We've got some height in our team now. Barkley, rodders, felli, velli, distin, jags, and now Straqula. We could be a right handful at set pieces.
 
Sven thought he wasn't good enough, but thought Beckford was, erm? But then again, do I really respect Sven's opinion over Davey's?

footy is litterd with player who have been on trial at clubs and went on to do great things elsewere, kendal got warned off cantona , and he didnt turn out to bad, baines and jags , let go from here only to return as are best players
im hopeing for the best its a long while since i had a hero at goodison, maybe he will be one

I think they had different agendas. Sven wanted a striker who would guarantee 20 goals per season and he had money to spend. And maybe Leicester didn't get him because we came in for him? If we've been watching him since April, then we should have a fair idea of what to expect.

Very true. United didn't fancy Beardsley or Platt early on in their careers. I'm sure there's some daft story about an English club deciding against someone like Maradona or Pele too. It's all subjective.

yes there will be loads we we supposed to have been offerd Ruud Gullit for next to nothing as a young player and didnt take it up, i will wait and see him before writing him off, just got a feeling he will be raw but have something about him, coming from a poor background and no big move before this, so not a lot to fall back on he will be hungry to do well.

3 times they didn't fancy him

went to see him play for Haarlem and came back with Atteveld instead (who got sent off in the game for headbutting) is what I remember from the time.

If he roughs up defenders that will atleast be something. Vic gets the spirit knocked out of him too easily. I'm not expecting too much though. Baines aside, we don't deliver a lot of quality into the box, so he's probably not even going to see much of the ball.
 
I have a good feeling bout him. He is gonna be raw but his record says he knows where the goal is, i think he will chip in with a fair few goals, mainly with his bonce.
 
Exactly how many of this obscure signings has Moyes signed now and farmed out to other clubs, the fact he signed on transfer deadline puts the spotlight on him.

Reckon at least 1 of the following will happen

1. Reckless red card
2. Shocking misses in consecutive games.
3. Doesn't come back from intenational duty/extended leave on time, fined by the club.
