In the past our buying strategy was "I tried to buy him when I was at Small Heath and I got knocked back.   I am going back with a sack of Randy Lerner's cash.   I shall get him.   Teach them to knock me back."

I haven't seen Crespo play so I don't know if he's an upgrade on what we have. But best of luck to him.

Reported as a done deal on TalkSport in the 6pm bulletin. Usual shoddy journalism?

One good thing here, the bloke knows what a proper beard is meant to look like. None of this stupid Tim Howard style hipster fanciness.




So did Luna, and he was shite. And Spanish.

Therefore, we shouldn't sign this bloke.

He looks like Action Man with a beard.

I find it quite odd that people who probably hadn't even heard of him before now have already decided he's not up to the task.

Has he signed then, or are we taking Talksport's word for it?

He struggled to be in the starting XI in my local team, Padova, in Italian Serie B.
Hutton is much better.
After this and the Delph statement published on the OS  we have become the joke of the Premier League.

I know it is only YouTube but I saw a clip and he looks tall and quite quick over the ground and more importantly likes to stay on his feet. SEAT

Sounds like Habib Beye...

Now it makes sense :)

No we haven't, don't be so melodramatic.
