Huntelaar Is Not Good Enough

I'd take him but not for over the odds.I think he'd score goals for us especially with the amount of chances we create.It's still him or Santa Cruz for me or even a fit Saha.

u lot are underestimating him , didnt van nisterooy come from holland? he is amazing , quick , strong , good in the air , great finisher , he has it all

I wouldnt mind him.

personally i think it's a little premature to make such a statement. whilst the eredivisie isn't the most prolific league, and it's true players such as kuyt, kezman, alves etc have found it difficult to impress in the premiership. this guy huntelaar as scored over 30 goals in each of the past 3 seasons for a reason. if he's got the strikers instinct then theres no better team at creating chances. i think we should take the chance before someone else does and we aren't left regretting it. van nistelrooy isn't particularly fast or skilful but he's one hell of a goal machine and was worth every penny he cost us.

Isn't a natural finisher exactly what United need? You can have all the hard working technical players in the world but one thing you don't have is a goal scorer especially if Ronaldo has an off season (or buggers off). IMO he gives you a few more options [also would mean you keep you grubby hands off Berbagod :-)]

Totally contradictory statement there LA_Villian. This whole "overated Rooney" was created by tabloid tossers who dont know a thing about football, and it has been adopted by all opposing fans. In fact, year on year Rooney's goal tally has risen each tme and is on an upwards increase. To be honest, it is only the extreaordinary rise of Ronaldo that has made people to question Rooney, ask any United fan who watch the team week in week out who our most important player is and i bet a fair majority will choose Rooney. As for your Tevez comment, well.....i dont even really think I need to answer to that. Fact is, Rooney and Tevez do so much for the team asde from scoring goals, but still manage to get 20 gaols a season. Do peopel have such poor memeories? Do you remember the way we played when RVN was in or team?.....it didnt even compare to the stufff we play today. We need slick, interchangabel players...not a static gaoal "poacher" who will dictate the way we play. Thats why I hope we go for berbatov!

United4life your right about Rooney being the most important player at old trafford, in the fans eyes at least. The media will always *****e on about Ronaldo, good or bad, because he sells papers. But when it comes to workrate and sheer effort you cannot fault Rooney or Tevez who in my opinion both set the stage for Ronaldo last season. I do rate Huntelaar more than Berbatov to be honest, I feel that Berbatov although hugely talented does like to stick his head in the sand when playing aggressive opponents and besides he wouldn't get a game ahead of Rooney or Tevez unless Fergie goes with that Rooney on the left wing crap. Huntelaar on the other hand may be prepared to be 3rd choice striker. Put it this way if we were playing say someone like Villa and were losing 1 nil with 5 minutes to go in ***** weather and the crowd on our backs I'd rather stick Huntelaar up front than Berbatov, for all of Berbatovs height how many times does he even challenge for the ball in the air or actually get stuck in. We need a good natural finisher and poacher around the 6 yard box. Why are we crapping on about how easy the dutch league is just look outside the top 8 in the prem and its not exactly world class I doubt Huntelaar would be *****ting himself at the thoughts of Wigan or Newcastle. If I had a choice it would be Huntelaar or Santa Cruz not Berbatov. Berbatov is just as ******** static as a set of traffic lights hes prepared to let the ball come to him but not to get it himself now wouldn't that dictate how we play if our striker wont put his foot in and fight for the ball, how exactly is he interchangeable can you see Berbatov going out wide left and crossing for someone in the box and what good would it be if all our forward thinking players switch around you need to know whos in the box at any giving time your hardly gonna knock in high crosses if Rooney or Tevez are in there alone you need 1 static striker at least on the bench in case things don't work out Dong deserves his chance like anyone else at the club.

naa this guy is not gd enough

yes marrh01.....in Holland.

id have santa cruz, surely he would want champions league football?
