Gutted to have missed out on this one. A natural finisher who has improved massively during the last season or 2 and will be worth much more in a few years time.
 

He's crap.

Delighted he signed for someone else - I had a bad feeling we could go in for him.

What was it, 5 goals in two seasons in the Prem?

Prior last season, his record in the lower leagues wasn't much better.

Agree with this. So one dimensional it's untrue. He'd struggle like crazy in the Prem. There's a reason only WBA and Leicester are taking a punt on him.
 
YouTube mate, really?

Have you searched for Yakubu on there? I have a Europa Video on there that makes Anichebe look World Class.

Funny how players are deemed 'crap' as soon as it becomes obvious that they are not coming to us. He may not be to your taste and that is fair enough, but 'crap' he certainly isn't.
 
I dunno lads, he was a bit crap up until last season, but last season he did look properly good a lot of the time. Had a few gash games ofc (he was pants in the second leg of their playoff game against Swansea, for example) but overall had a pretty ace season.

25 goals from 50 apps in all competitions last year, plus player of the year award. He may well flop, but I wouldn't write him off just yet. He's also still only 24.

And yes, I've seen him play plenty. I've lived in Reading for most of the last 20-odd years. So there.
