I've never bought him but I looked him up the other day. Could get in the Italy squad with those attributes.
No, it doesn't. Every time someone says this, it's obvious they had no idea who Rickie Lambert was when we signed him. There was so, so much more to his game.
I remember when Peter Crouch came to us and people said he was too tall and gangly and wouldn't be any good.
I remember when Jonathan Forte came to us and people said he had very little footballing ability and wouldn't be very good.
The point I was trying to make was that many people didn't think much of Ricky when he first arrived and I doubt even with your superior knowledge you have no idea if he will be a good signing or not?
Obviously nobody can know 100% if someone is going to be a success or failure, but having watched Pelle a few times I do not see a player who will regularly get goals in the PL. I could be completely wrong and he may be a success, but forums are all about opinions and that is mine
Graziano is in Southampton and met with Koeman earlier today. Personal terms agreed with the player, as mentioned the other day.
