Us buying him gave Redknapp the money to go for Defoe, why the hell we didn't just get Defoe I'll never understand unless we tried and he didn't want to move up north.
see what I mean about nitwits
1999–2002 Jomo Cosmos 45 (20)
2001–2002 → Grasshopper (loan) 25 (1)
2001–2005 Auxerre 72 (19)
2006–2008 Portsmouth 70 (19)
2008– Manchester City 23 (4)
So what in those stats make you think he was ever worth signing, virtually permanently offside when not being lazy. 235 games and 63 goals with a return of 23 goals in 103 appearances in the UK, virtually 1 goal per 5 games in the UK, 1 per 4 games when including the mickey mouse leagues. Vassell had 265 appearances and 52 goals, all in the PL with him being played at City on the wing for a lot of his time here which is directly comparable to Benjani's utter crap goal record.
If you can't face the fact he is a gash striker that was a misguided panic buy how about you provide your evidence instead of crappy one-liners calling someone a nitwit
