Roy Maakay might be available

[Bootle Buck]

If Bayern sign Horseface they may make Maakay available. He is a proven goalscorer and could do a job for us for a small fee. If Rafa signs Alves we may not have a great deal left to buy a top striker. This could be a good alternative

 

Bayern may let striker go

[Guest Sabre]

Makaay would be great in England

[Gunga Din]

i felt we should have made a move for him before he went to Bayern. i'd still liek to see him now to be honest, i have always felt he would do a great job in england

I defo would of a few years ago, not now though, he's 30 years old, never played in England and despite a very good goalscoring record last season there were a lot of problems with his attitude apparently.

[Lee W]

Quality player - Madrid bound maybe now, but would be a great signing.

[Bootle Buck]

He may be used in a deal with Utd for RVN though. I would hate to see him at the Mancs. He is a great finisher.

As would Pizzaro I think, mentioned in that article too.

 

Munich do still have Santa Cruz, must read articles before posting questions! Means they'll have RvN, Santa Cruz and Podolski next year (maybe). Not bad.

Good intelligent player. Would fit into our side nicely.

[Rory Fitzgerald]

Cant access the link for some reason - is there a price mentioned ?

Cant see it. They'll need all the cash they can get for Torres.

Had more than his share of injury problems too, lately. Great player in his day mind...just wonder if that day may be a bit too far into dusk by now.

No-one is denying he is/has been a fine player - just wondering or thinking at this point in time - unless he's dirt cheap, we want someone younger.

same age as fowler

[Rich Gobey]

Someone nudge StevieH, he's letting a golden porridge pun go to waste here.

[Knox_Harrington]

We want someone who can hold it up and bang them in. Let's start from there before ruling people out.

[Guest Anders Honoré]

I'm sure I read somewhere that he was one of the first players Rafa got rid of when he took over at Valencia. I may have a bad memory though.

 

you do. He never played for Valencia.

[galés rojo]

I'd take any one of Maakay,Pizzaro, or Santa Cruz from Bayern each of them are very good players and could offer us a lot.

[stressederic]

Terrific player

[Cooldude]

Would be fantastic if we do get him on the cheap, tremandous player

[chiliking]

Me too. They are all strikers that can do a job for us.:-)

Iv'e decided Pizzaro is the answer to our striking conundrum, just like that no need to mess around go get him Rafa.

[Maldini]

It's cos he has a "ZZ" in his name

Sign more players who's names i can't spell. Imagine the mayhem if that Greek bloke signed.

[Leo No.8]

Klose hasn't gone anywhere yet - he'd fit in nicely I think, and apparently may be available for as a little as £8m outside Germany...
