@To fans who defend Huntelaar, comparing Huntelaar's situation to Trezeguet's one when the latter joined us is absolutely inaccurate. When Trezeguet joined us, he wasn't a regular starter, it was Inzaghi. Besides, we had a decent squad those days, the three lines were almost complete. So, it was easy for Trezeguet to shine. I don't mean that he was lucky, but our squad was a world-class one.
Even when we sold Inzaghi and Zidane, we then brought world-class players. Still, our midfield and fullbacks were able to supply Trezeguet with decent balls to score. But now everything is different, Trezeguet is leaving and we've to find another poacher. But not a player who waits for the ball and doesn't share in buildup of attack. We're no longer the team we used to be; Nedved is getting old and may retire this summer, Camoranesi may leave as well, Zambrotta is no longer a Juve player, Almiron maybe the only creative player we can get and our fullbacks (Grygera and Chiellini) are more of defensive ones.
Hence, I think a player like Huntelaar now shouldn't be our imperative target. People compare him to Van Nistelrooy, yes both of them are top finishers but the latter can assist, buildup attacks and is already a world class player. I think we're over-hyping Huntelaar, again just because he maybe the only good realistic forward we're linked to.
