Comments on: Mido – good or bad signing? [POLL] http://westhamprocess.FootballUNITED.com/2010/02/01/mido-good-or-bad-signing-poll/ Musings in Claret and Blue Fri, 23 Jul 2010 09:45:20 +0100 http://FootballUNITED.com/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: @stevecs http://westhamprocess.FootballUNITED.com/2010/02/01/mido-good-or-bad-signing-poll/#comment-4725 @stevecs Fri, 05 Feb 2010 12:13:50 +0000 http://westhamprocess.com/?p=2147#comment-4725 Couldn't agree more. Mido can do the business when he's got his sensible head on. He is still only 26 and wants this hence why he has taken such an amazing deal. It's his last chance at a big league and skating over his past issues maybe he has finally got his act together and realises he won't have many more options to play at the top. Having had many chances in the past he may actually screw the nut in and deliver the goods for us.

One goal which wins a game and improves our position is already money well spent.<p class="wp-report-this"><a href="http://westhamprocess.FootballUNITED.com?moderation_action=report_form&object_type=comment&object_id=4724&width=250&height=300" class="thickbox" title="Report this comment">Report This Comment</a></p> How anyone could say it’s a bad signing when he is getting paid a grand (more then our youth players) is beyond me.

Not much is it.. We are only ever realy going to have two strikers on the pitch at any one time, when fit obviously Carlton, and either Benni, Franco or Ilan (who i hear is better than we are expecting).. Thats four top quality strikers, two of them being bench warmers, and i guarantee all of them are on over £25,000-30,000 a week. Mido on the other hand probably costs less than the monthly lease on the company car, and yet he brings raw strength, aerial ability, a knack for scoring important goals (note: against us usually) and an attitude to rub defenders up the wrong way. And if we were still in the 'relegation scrap' come the end of the season and he did score the goal that kept us up, even if it was his only goal of the season, he would be touted as the bargain of all time, and there would be a few on this blog eating their words. No brainer for me.<p class="wp-report-this"><a href="http://westhamprocess.FootballUNITED.com?moderation_action=report_form&object_type=comment&object_id=4723&width=250&height=300" class="thickbox" title="Report this comment">Report This Comment</a></p>

When HR got Hartson no one fancied him, a trouble maker ousted by Arsenal sold to Luton. But with Kitson he became a great sucess. Mido has similar footballing and temper traits so if he works out, great. Well worth the punt on loan to the end of the season.<p class="wp-report-this"><a href="http://westhamprocess.FootballUNITED.com?moderation_action=report_form&object_type=comment&object_id=4716&width=250&height=300" class="thickbox" title="Report this comment">Report This Comment</a></p>
