considering his age, I'd say so yeh.

 

[McBain]

Why do Blackburn score great players on the cheap? 3.5 for Santa Cruz?

What would he have been worth in his prime?

 

[Rob]

Why do Blackburn score great players on the cheap? 3.5 for Santa Cruz?

I know it was a long time ago but they have won the PL and did play in the UEFA and again this season.

As a johnny foreigner who knows next to nothing about the PL you would have to say rovers look like a good club to go to.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Santa Cruz is a tough one. I remember him being one of the best around on Championship Manager back in the day but his scoring record at Bayern is about as good as Beatties (31 from 148).

 

[zero]

He had one cracking season at Bayern and then didn't fancy it anymore.

Sound familiar

Mind you beattie was never great....

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Still early lads one game doesn't a season make.

Anyone seem Chris Brunt play left winger for the Owls? Is he worth 3 million?

 

[CanadaToffee]

Well, on the evidence of the first weekend, the fact that Moyes did not Richardson and Nugent at the fees they went for is cause for celebration. Richardson in particular looked very ordinary.

 

[chicoazul]

I cant wait for September the first so I dont have to go through 27 pages.

And Monty, youve promised to spank me. I have it in writing, you kinky man whore you.

How did Nugent play anyone?

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Watched the game and he didn't set the world on fire. Maybe I'm a bit biased because he didn't come but looked lacking. One chance he did have he miss kicked it for a easy save. He may do well but based on the first game I'm glad we saved the money.

 

[Blue Wiz]

Nugent didn't look good or threatening. Still it's his first match on this lvl so he might be forgiven.

Of the transfertargets we "missed" this summer I was most impressed with Kapo in Brmingham.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Me to Bruce got that one right. he was all over the field for Brum.
