It would be could if he could join Saints, I doubt it but he might, I mean we had Bradley Wright Phillips last season and he was well crap for us really, not as good as his brother Shaun.

And Ned, I’ve seen plenty of forwards who could do that stuff. Cruyff’s at the top of the list

“I have never seen a forward who can hold the ball, drop into the midfield and create, bolt past people/muscle defenders and play from wide.”

Emanuel Adebayor & Dimitar Berbatov come to mind…

…ha, I’m funny.

The only thing Torres couldn’t do at 23 on that list was play out wide, don’t think he’s ever really been put out there (that’s Robbie Keane’s job!).

Rooney’s a mouthy child, and I want no part of him.

and how many times has he had to be subbed off because it was obvious his temper was going to get him that second yellow? numerous.

the guy is just a tempestuous little kid still.

Gerrard? 3, Torres? 3.

Ha, you’d love to have him play for Liverpool. He has been sent off 4 times in 6 years. 4.

Yes, he does indeed change games, especially when he gets sent off and his team must adjust to playing with only 10 men.

@Georger. People do not appreciate all he does in games, especially when he unselfishly creates for others and works like a dog. I have never seen a forward who can hold the ball, drop into the midfield and create, bolt past people/muscle defenders and play from wide. At just 23.

Dirk Kuyt can do one thing. He does it well, like most players who take to their roles but its still just one thing. Rooney is a game changer.
