Not when we sign rvp and cavani!! ;-)blue soon? said:It is quite funny the only direct comparisons between him and drogba are they are big men that go to ground easy. Lescott schooled him but from what i remember he was pretty much the only potent attacking force in the team, with better players around him he may flourish but doesnt exactly strike fear into your heart does it?
Spot on - like Drogba and Heskey before him, they are either going down or getting up.unlikelyfan19 said:They can have Hulk, guess they need someone big to fall over a bunch now that Drogbas gone.

Porto and Brazil forward Hulk is in discussions with Chelsea regarding a move to the European champions.
The 25-year-old can also play on the wing and will be seen as a direct replacement for veteran striker Didier Drogba, who is leaving Stamford Bridge.
Hulk scored 21 goals in 38 appearances this season to help Porto to their second successive league title.
The player is currently with the Brazil squad in Germany ahead of Saturday's friendly against Denmark in Hamburg.
Hulking resemblance
Hulk, less frequently known as Givanildo Vieira de Souza, was given his nickname because of his resemblance to the actor who played the Incredible Hulk, Lou Ferrigno
His agent Teodoro Fonseca told Brazilian media this week: "There hasn't been an official proposal so far. There has been a lot of interest in him, but it has yet to go further than that.
"All that should change next week. Besides Chelsea, there are four more English clubs interested in him.
"Porto will not let him go easily. His release clause is 100m euros [£80m], but ultimately it is the player's wish to take on another challenge that will make the difference.
"Those are the words of Porto's directors. They have said as much, and will not stand in his way, so though it will not be easy for those English clubs financially, there is room for negotiation. We can sort everything out, I am sure."
And i hope the bold isn't regarding us. Who can afford him other than us and Chelsea anyway? Name the other two who could afford the ridiculous price Porto want!

That's true... You might not have been able to tell on the TV but live you could see he had the beating of Richards... He was beating him at will tbh... He's a brilliant player, especially with the players he'll be playing with at Chelsea, it'll make him even better.RandomJ said:Seosa said:Did fuck all against us, we should have some more fun with him in August at Villa Park if they do sign him, I wonder if he'll complain again...
That's not strictly true now is it. He gave Richards no end of trouble and beat him several times and one of those times resulted in a goal for them. He's over rated but he's by no means shit.
YOU'RE NOT INCREDIBLE YOU'RE NOT INCREDIBLEMarvin said:The home leg ended with Ciy fans laughing and jeering at Hulk which led to a protest by Porto to UEFA.
