ianrobo1 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Ashton by a distance, Sanat Cruz has so far done it for one fluke season in his whole career, every season Ashton has played he has done it with the supply from young and hopefully a new RM he would score loads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Festy Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Happy with both of them. But I prefer fit Ashton over Santa Cruz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuen_Biao Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Santa Cruz - great name, great player. Ashton although a great player has had some injury problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasthevillan Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Both spend a lot of time on the treatment table but Santa Cruz has been there, seen it, done it and Ashto has it all to do. I get the feeling that Santa Cruz is the one that is available, I thought we should have gone for him when he was available for £3.5m! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tricella Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I havent looked the results yet but I can guess... It is seemingly a BIG resistance on this site for foreigners...for some strange reason. Especially IF they goes to another club. :winkold: JEEEESUS! I was wrong! :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super-Villan Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Ashton for me too. I really wanted us to go for him when he went to West Ham. Think he could be an amazing striker (though will admit he didn't look great for England recently. Then again Shorey didn't impress me for England either). I wouldn't call Santa Cruz a one season wonder, but I'd still consider him a risk. Either player would improve our team/squad immensely though.

Not at all..but surprised a foreigner gets recognition like that despite so many were absolutly against "Mr fancy name"...it shows how people can get turned around and that football skills is more important than nationality. Nice..and a surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice..and a surprise. Wrong. The vast majority don't give a shit what nationality a player is as long as he can do the job he's bought in for. What does annoy people is when others assume a "fancy name" player is better than an English player by default. Which is bollocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtsimonw Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Santa Cruz. I think Ashton is massively over-rated to be honest, decent player, but considering how injury prone is I'm just not sure where he gets all this hype from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
