Huntelaar

A paltry £10.7m to Schalke. I would have loved to see him in the Prem.

He's not been given much of a chance, just as with Owen at Real, but he's still got an impressive scoring ratio with them.

Uffffff, I'm pretty confident it means we won't get him for at least 3 years. He will score many goals in Schalke and his price will go higher again, and most of the fans (as well as some managers) will think he is a good modern forward. Thankfully Moyes won't have money to learn, that he isn't.

Average player.

Agreed, but a pure goalpoacher at the same time. He'll score goals at Schalke if given the confidence. Not so sure, if he'd work in our system though.

Our team isn't brimming with that, really.

I don't think Moyes is good for that stuff. I think he gets in self-motivated, gutsy players. But take Bily, he looks like he needs an arm around the shoulder. And he looks like he's not getting one.

i disagree - surely the best Moyes buys have been the good rep - big move - goes horribly wrong - sold to everton - turns out not to be [Poor language removed] players. apart from cahill, obv.

Don't know about that, Moyes always looks like a tough nut to crack though, I'll give you that. However, more speaking about the system here. The Raul/Huntelaar partnership is looking mouthwatering for Bundesliga standards to me, tbh.

The Moyes of old, yes.

But now... I don't know. When was the last time he made a signing like that?

And Bily. Just look at him. Moyes needs to find him a friend.

He should ask Chico for that. He goes all the way to the shower.

Not so sure if he'd work in any system in Premier League...
