    For a Striker? Really? Strength? WITHOUT Pace?

    Championship Player in the making.

    International Football is the worse possible yardstick by which to judge top class Players, it doesn't come close to the standard of the Premier League.

    Hence the David Healey quote, check out his stats!

    That's interesting - All of the stats he's got, including 14 goals in 15 league appearances, and 43 goals in 91 appearances for Germany; and you can conclude he'd make a championship player? Berbatov, as slow as a donkey - United saw fit to spend £31m on him. Ronaldo, after the weight gain - still scored over 1 goal every 2 games. Crouch, Huntelaar, Crespo - none of them have blistering pace but are seen as some of the best strikers around (bar Crouch of course)...

    Again, cementing my opinion that pace isn't everything.

    I've seen a figure of £16.6mil bandied about. If so, then for a 26 year old, not a bad price.

    We've not had a top german in the team since Dietmar left. He'd be a welcome addition to the squad...

    Is Podolski one of those strikers like Bellamy that can play out wide as well?

    Pace isn't everything, there is no magic ingredient, but if you were to look for one thing above all else, that would be it.

    Berbatov is slow, agreed. What he does have is sublime skill, height and intelligence, but despite his prolific return at Old Trafford he has been replaced by a Player, in Hernandez, who has maybe one of those qualities, but is lightening quick.

    Lukas has played wide right for Germany, I believe. They were playing one up in those games I think...

    Did you see the article/video about Bolt wanting to sign for Utd? - Some of their fans wanted it to happen <doh>

    I've gotta admit I would love to have Drogba he has that knack for scoring goals we desperately need

    Aww Dave! I detect a lack of sincerity! Not one of my better efforts to be sure...but there is a theme there to be exploited you have to admit!

    Could our hearts and fine budget cope with having 3 shall we say rascals in Suarez, Drogba & Bellamy all in same team; it would be something to see!

    We'd also be accused of starting up a synchronised diving team for 2012 By a few on here lol

    Is that David 'Usain Bolt' Schofield I see posting again?

    I forgot that all football players will at some point be asked to try out for the 100m at the Olympics. Hence pace is paramount in every footballer, isn't it?

    P.S - Djibril Cisse, Ryan Babel, Mark Gonzalez.

    We should sign him purely because we could sing this song.
