Why is the talk of whether he is better or worse than Pavlyuchenko? He's out top scorer!!
I agree with both statements. If we can sign a better "uber" striker, IE the Torres/Drogba we need then great, but failing that this kid - and let's not forget he's got just about as much top drawer experience as any 23yo - has great technique, a good brain, holds the ball up better than anyone we have and uses it with more intelligence. He's not going to score 25 goals a season, but he will score more than Crouch, create at least as much, works fucking hard for the team and be more conducive to possession retention than just about all of our strikers out together.
And why does attitude bother people ? We don't have enough of it in our team, too many fucking nice guy dormice. He reminds me of Sheringham a bit.
We could do a fuck of a lot worse as a back up option.
Will always remember the infamous Bendtner vs Adebayor clash at the Lane - two of footballs most likeable fellows *cough* perfectly encapsulated within the boundaries of the glorious club *cough cough* Arsenal - oh how we laughed!
Ahem...Bendtner for Spurs, I don't think so.
BC ,
How about Bendtner plus another striker ?
Crouch and Pav are both good enough for our squad but Crouch will cope better with rotation . If the Russian is not going to get regular starts then it's best for all concerned to let him go .
Assuming Keane won't be coming back , I think we need replacements for both him and Defoe .
An advantage is that Man Utd , Chelsea , Liverpool , Man City are fairly well sorted for strikers so we wouldn't have to try to compete with them for Bendtner .
We are just about the only side in the PL capable of challenging for anything that could afford his wages .
I can't think of anyone better in the up to £25m £80-90k/wk bracket .
Think you are being a bit harsh on Bendtner and Adebayor .
Van Persie is right in that Berbatov , Drogba class and I dearly wish Spurs could find such a striker but wouldn't take RVP on a free .
Bendtner isn't a proper cheat either so really doesn't fit in at the Emirates .
Kishman said that his contract is up in the summer ? Can anybody confirm that ? He'd be worth a look on free and it would definitely rub the scum's noses in it
RVP is world class, if we had him in our current side we could seriously challenge for the league.
I'd happily see us pay £30m for him let alone a free.
The only one draw back is his injury problems, he spends far too much time in the physio room. I don't like him, but he is class and would be great for spurs.
Thats if we could keep him fit...

No doubt that he is World Class .
I'm a massive admirer of his awesome skill on the pitch .
Would not want him sullying our lily white shirt though and that has nothing to do with him having played for that lot .
why is there even a discussion on this? It appeare it caught offside.com!
Thats if we could keep him fit...
The Tampon, one week in, three weeks out. No chance of keeping him fit.
Would we be a big enough club for Bendtner? I'm not sure he'd see us as career progression, which is what he keeps talking about.
