Anelka isn't as bad as you guys are making him out to be, yes he's gotten older since his Chelsea days but he can still prove himself with us too..give him a chance
No, I fucking hate this guy since his Arsenal days. And he is as bad as we're making him out to be. If this deal happens we just signed another Borriello. Fucking useless douchebag.

Only saving grace of this deal would be the surprisingly low wages but otherwise fuck this acquisition. Unless we plan to also sign Lopez then we have once again failed to improve our attack.
If anything, we made it worse.

If that was even possible. :derp:

I actually think it's not such a bad signing. Anelka, as old as he may be, is still a good finisher in front of goal. Only worrying thing is his mentality and if he'll be a bad influence on Pogba :scared:

:D I'll be more specific. It doesn't help us on the short term, for this season.
I agree :p

But then again Marotta has been quite consistent about not getting anyones expectations up for this winter mercatto, he said that we don't have money to spend right now. All the people in his thread bitching how "he has failed yet again" obviously can't think more than two weeks back, when he said that we won't be signing any big name nor spending money.

3 transfer markets in a row. New record. As I said before full cron on marotta if lopez isnt signed or else a damn good article telling us why lopez wasnt possible.

Iaquinta still here, useless

My God. Why is it such a fucking curse to get a good striker?

So much money spent.

Words fail me on this transfer, if we are going to stoop to Anelka levels (he was great ten years ago but not now), why not just loan someone already in Serie A?

You might as well have added Tiago, Boumsong and Stendardo to the list.

I have no idea why ya'll are having such a meltdown right now. Its just a 6 months loan. There was nothing close to this drama when we signed guys like Peluso and Padoin even though Anelka has actually played at an elite level. It is what it is, a quick fix and a guy who can participate in the CL if we have injury problems. Also I don't think he can be that much worse than Quag or Matri next to Vuci/Gio.
