Signing Llorente went out the window the minute we signed Carroll as well.
Yup,my point as well.
IMO we are looking for wingers,and if a forward will come in,he will be more of the Suarez type than of the Carroll type.

I was just wondering two things; One where does the nickname Hulk come from?, and Two why does he have Ian on his boots? He dosnt look like an Ian to me.

he put in some cross with the outside of his boot late in the game last night..
and that reminds me of.....Quaresma.So,it's a no go then! ;D

Seriously,he seems a good player but we're talking about Porto here so they will ask a hell lot of money.If he's owned by a third party then his price will go even higher.
I admit i haven't seen him a lot except a few games in the Europa league this year,but he seems like the kind of player that Porto will be his ceiling.Just a hunch of course.

I said best left foot, not best left-footed player. Messi's the best player in the world but Hulk has the best left foot. He can nail free kicks/long distance shots with power, curve and accuracy that no one other than maybe Ronaldo can.

That doesnt make sense. Messi has the best left foot in the world, fuck power and curve, do you see anyone stroke the ball into the goal like Messi does? Do you see anyone else make 5 touches on the ball with his left foot within half a second whilst bursting past 2/3 defenders? No. Hulk's left foot is great, but it is nowhere near as good as Messi's

Quote
After his stay in Japan, Hulk moved to Portugal  and signed for defending champions  F.C. Porto, who bought 50% of the player's rights for €5.5 million, from Uruguayan  side C.A. Rentistas,[2]  with the transfer fee being received by an unnamed investor.

On 3 May 2011 Porto paid €13.5 million to Uruguayan club C.A. Rentistas for another 40 per cent of Hulk's sporting rights, bringing their total stake in the forward to 85 per cent, signing a deal until 2016 and with a buy-out clause of €100 million.

I'd stay well clear of that.

I admit i haven't seen him a lot except a few games in the Europa league this year,but he seems like the kind of player that Porto will be his ceiling.Just a hunch of course.

He does look like a man amongst boys in the Portugese Liga which is lacking in talent outside the top 3 or 4. However, with his skillset and the way he plays, I have no doubt he will be successful in a better league, just not as amazing as he was this year.

That doesnt make sense. Messi has the best left foot in the world, fuck power and curve, do you see anyone stroke the ball into the goal like Messi does? Do you see anyone else make 5 touches on the ball with his left foot within half a second whilst bursting past 2/3 defenders? No. Hulk's left foot is great, but it is nowhere near as good as Messi's

There is more to player than their "foot". Messi is by far the better player but that's not because he has a better left foot. It's because he has amazing balance due to a low center of gravity, very quick acceleration, a good footballing brain, first touch, technique, etc.

Hulk - didn't hack it in the same Sao Paulo, went to Japan - Portugal - now is a big star

Porto already refused offers much higher than those 16 mil from milan. in fact, Porto'spresident laughed at that offer. i remember seeng on the newspapers he talked about milan wanting to buy cissokho the deal was done 15 million euros but when doing the medicals they made up an excuse about his teeth. he ended up going to Lyon. Hulk will stay in Porto unless someone pays 100 mil

He has pace and a powerful shot but seems to be a pretty headless player. Against organized sides in Europe this season Falcao had a much bigger impact than he did from what I saw. He's had one good season (wasn't he awful last season?) and I don't think he's worth nearly as much as the prices being thrown around.

His price tag is enormous but I definitely can see big clubs trying to get him to sign for them next season. Hope one day he wears the red shirt but I know it is difficult to happen though.

according to howard king you do pay refs..but you can't even win uefa cup with bribed refs. and Porto has more titles than manchester. 7. only an imbecil simple minded benfica fan would say something like 'manchester united of Portugal' . you think it is ok to emulate other clubs. i bet this year you are a real madrid fanatic. looser. you're not a liverpool fan
