What do you guys think now, would it have been better if we bought Huntelaar instead of Amauri ?
Many wanted KJC and they didn't want Amauri. They had very good reasons for that. Huntelaar is 3 years younger, he scores goals for fun, even if it's only in the Dutch league, and he looked too superior compared to the other strikers from his generation. Amauri on the other hand, even though he was 28, had no experience playing on the biggest stage, no CL experience, never scoring many goals etc.
What do you think now ? Do you think we'd have been better/same/worse if we had Huntelaar instead of Amauri.
Ok, it's tough to answer this since we've seen Amauri in Juve and we didn't see KJC, but you can make a guess what was going to happen if we had the Dutchman.

i do really think that huntelaar would not have made an impact like amauri.
i think huntelaar is pretty similar to trezeguet ... he does not invent goals by himself and has not the ability to take on defenders. add to that, that his body strength is pretty low. amauri did score important goals which in this way huntelaar wouldn't have scored. especially the games against real madrid would have gone another way, because i am pretty sure it would have been easier to shut down huntelaar than shutting down this hard working powerfull amauri ...
but that was what i said in the first place ... i wanted a player that can create for himself and has the ability to take on defenders ...
