What about teddy Sheringham, he was 30/31 when he signed for utd.

Me to, sick of arguing the point with what I see as complete numptys.

I don't want him and don't regard myself as a numpty.

The reasons are very clear.

1. Despite being a great PL striker for one season he is 28 and injury prone.
2. He is also a ****. Just like Rooney who I would also not welcome. Remember the Adebayor incident
3. We already have 4 extremely good strikers who compliment each other well. Luckily two of them Kun and Edin are quality pros who don't cause trouble. Imagine if we had Balo. CT and RVP. Incendiary stuff.
4. If Tevez or Dzeko wanted leave there are younger alternatives to VP. Think Cavani and Falcao.
Your missing the point mate which is why I said sick of arguing with numptys.
It doesn't matter a jot if you don't fancy him or if I do, the point is Mancini does and any argument against is an bad slant on Bob.

How do you know that Bob wants RVP, because TH says so? He could have just as likely been tapped up Real, Juve or PSG so until he signs then we don 't what RM wants, and anyway what is this RAWK no manager is beyond question not even RM, I have supported Bob since he took the job, but I would be lying if I said I had never at anypoint questioned his judgement.

The been at a club for many years bit rules out most, but for example, Carlos Tevez.

John cross mirror journo and so called Arsenal expert was on talkshite today and he said, Mancini is desperate to sign RvP. Also Arsenal themselves are accusing us of tapping up RvP,
But of course it's coz TH said so. On a further note, if you questioned Mancinis judgement at any time then surely you have been proved wrong.

Carlos is different though, before us he had a goal rate below1 in 3 at WHam and the Rags, for us it is better than 1 in 2. I don't think Hughes bought CT as a main striker anyway, he probably meant to use him as a SS or trequartista, and CT only excelled when he was moved up to the main striker position when Hughes was sacked. Also CT was n't the star player and main striker at the rags whilst RVP obviously is.

You don't get to ask a question with 6 qualifiers then look on all knowingly when it can't be answered.

Example:

Can anybody name me a world class[1] defender[2] who played for his country[3] for many years[4] before he moved on [5] and won a trophy?[6]

This is a football forum fella where people post and discuss issues - that is the point of such forums - if you dont want to argue dont - but if you dont like other peoples opinions then stick to the official web site.

That is foolish to think that way, Mancini has admitted several times that he had mistakes at Everton and liverpool (in 10-11) perhaps, I did n't say I think we should sack him but to think a manager can do no wrong is misguided as is taking anything said by a supposed ITK on an internet forum (who uses Youtube videos to communicate) as gospel.

His question has been answered twice. Yorke and Sherringham
