Adebayor is going for £25m. Personally, I belive Tevez is a much better striker than Adebayor (who only started featuring this year for Arsenal). Adebayor is going for £25m.

Well, we had this type of player for many years, and he almost always featured as a sub (OLE). It is not that I condemn Huntelaar. In fact, I admit he is an exceptional talent as a poacher. Unfortunately, not the type of player that I believe SAF want as a first-teamer. That is why he let Ruud go and was in no hurry to replace him. Should we get Huntelaar, then I'm pretty sure he will be used as supersub like OLE. What would be ideal is a player that has all those qualities, and still performs as part of the build-up. (Here's hoping Berbs live up to the hype - even though I am a bit sceptical about his finnishing as compared to Huntelaar). Tevez brings more than just work-rate to the team, but I believe his work-rate alone is worth every penny of £20m. Grognard
