Mr_Dogg Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I don't trust Ashton's fitness and I don't understand the hype. Can someone explain it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bromsgrove_avfc Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 RSC for me quality player and think of the chants we could sing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LT_1993 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 sante cruz for me, both great players tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshClem Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Ive changed my mind to Santa Clause, i really dont like injury prone players as they cant fit into the team, no matter how good i think ashton is... Problem is with 2 big men up front they might not keep up on the break and we will be crossing into nobody, however its worth it for set pieces and other crosses and for their ability to keep the ball and play it out to the wing... and score goals. Imagine the mood around camp if we get one of these bad boys!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshClem Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 OH btw, guys, i just realised... I think we have a chance of getting Ashton, even though he only just signed a new deal... But Santa Cruz's Brother is at Bburn now so i doubt he will leave... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Cruz is a class above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olof'sAcorn Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I couldn't really care less which one we got. Santa Cruz is the obvious choice, because he doesn't appear to have many injury problems, but when fit there aren't many better players than Ashton. I would probably say Santa Cruz if i had to pick though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sled Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Ashton's good but RSC's record with Blackburn last season speaks for itself. Superb old-fashioned type of target-man/goalscorer/leader. Yes he would suffer at Blackburn from the loss of Bentley. Sad we don't have a winger that could supply him with good balls. Oh hang on... :oops: So Santa Cruz, but I wouldn't turn my nose up at Ashton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blobbyrob Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 On last seasons showing it's Santa Cruz for me & he reminds me a little of JPA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dion_Dublin's_Saxaphone Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I can't believe theres a striker out there I want more than Ashton, but I'd prefer Santa Cruz. Both would be class, and both would compliment Carew or Gabby but I believe Roque is slightly more mobile than Deano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Tough call. Ashton, when fully fit he's a beast. Great movement, good in the air and on the ground and he's more than capable of playing the target man role should Carew be out for any length of time. I have my reservations about Santa Cruz, I have to wonder why he struggled so much with a class side like Munich. Perhaps he's just better suited to this league. Ashton for me. But neither will be plying their trade at VP next season IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam260689 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 i think he'd be an outcast. All the other players speak English as a first language apart from the Scandinavians who we all know speak very good English...Santa Cruz would be the only player with limited English and looking at his Bayern record..when he feels like an outcast he doesnt score goals. For the money he would cost, it would be a bad signing IMO and wouldnt fit the MON signings pattern. Ashton would be a much better signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His record at Bayern was 38 goals in 103 games (86 starts) And it must be Blackburns well known Spanish speaking community that keep him entertained up the devils road as I can't see a single spanish speaking player in Blackburns squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanky Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 He also has Friedel as well so highly unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salsa Party Animal Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Santa Cruz as I think Carew and Ashton will be awful partnership. We need a bit of foreign flair in the team so Cruz can give us a bit of South American magic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazdavies79 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Either.....cant pick a winner, they're both very good players I'd love to see playing for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
