I still don't think Recoba's worth what they're paying him. If you consider Recoba as a world calss striker, he should be able to adapt even a little and contribute. And with the money they're paying him, since he's not getting any playing time as a striker, he should learn how to play midfield. And if it doesn't work, look for another club.
Yes, the situation he's in maybe unfair for him. He's not playing the position that he's fit to fill, then maybe, it's time to move on to another club. He plays excellent in the national team, but on club level, he needs to find a club where he fits in properly...
No offense to Recoba or anything, I'm not degrading him or anything. In fact, I'm trying to find a solution for him. Until he gets to play where he fits best, he will never find his form back. If he gets more opportunities than Batigoal, then maybe he can just steal that spot away from him.
