I'll give him credit for his goals in the World Cup but give me a break he's not good enough to play along side Van Nistelrooy.
C'mon Alex buy someone like Kluivert!

Did i mention Forlan? I'm sure i didn't...but as you bought him up anyway, I've never seen £7.5m flushed down the toilet as quickly as it did when Alex bought him. As for Barcelona, I think your forgetting the fact that they already have 4 top strikers and with roumours that they are trying to buy Hasselbaink, Kluivert will move further down the pecking order. So they would be willing to sell a striker who's already their THIRD chioce yeah.
Robert Pires
Dennis Bergkamp
Francis Jeffers
El Hadji Diouf
Emile Heskey
Sean Goater
Teddy Sheringham
Les Ferdinand
and dozens of other players I can't be bothered to mention.
Yet still, all I hear is "forlan is crap". You people must all be somewhat dim. Just because he isn't the premierships top scorer, you think he's pants. By that same definition, Henry and Van Nistelrooy aren't much cop either.
Stupidity.
Forlan became a legend in my mind when he sunk the Scousers at Anfield with his double strike.
And you only have to look at his winner against Southampton to see he can he can really hit a ball. Not to mention his class strike in the world cup.

Lets look at the players you've mentioned:
Robert Pires - Is a midfielder
Dennis Bergkamp - Has been out injured
Francis Jeffers - He's played what, 3, 4 games so far this season!
El Hadji Diouf - Has bearly played this season
Emile Heskey - Not first choice - has played more at left midfield
Sean Goater - Has again played only a few games this season
Teddy Sheringham - I'll give you that one
Les Ferdinand - Has he even played this seaon? Rotting in the reserves
The point I was trying to make is that Manchester United create a lot of chances in most games, and Forlan hasn't been finishing as well as someone playing for one of the biggest clubs in Europe should be
> El Hadji Diouf - Has bearly played this season
Diouf has played in 17 games this season and scored only 2 goals. And he cost a few million more than Forlan.
