Simi Posted 23 July 2007 Posted 23 July 2007 Owls offer striker Kluivert trialSheffield Wednesday have offered a trial to Dutch international striker Patrick Kluivert. The 31-year-old plays for PSV Eindhoven but is understood to be looking for a move elsewhere. Owls boss Brian Laws told BBC Radio Sheffield: "I have a strong contact in Holland who is Kluivert's agent. "We've invited the boy down and I want to run the rule over him. It is just a possibility and is nothing concrete at the moment but we've made an enquiry." Kluivert has experience of playing in England after a spell with Newcastle. He started only 14 Premiership games for the Magpies, scoring six times. Newcastle rejected the opportunity to take up the option for a second year on his contract leaving him free to join Valencia in the summer of 2005. He subsequently left the Italian side to link up with PSV the following year. Kluivert has played for some of Europe's biggest clubs including AC Milan, Ajax and Barcelona.
act smiley Posted 23 July 2007 Posted 23 July 2007 They will piss the league if Kluivert plays. Depends - he's got the talent, but he's become an overweight sicknote really.
Joe. Posted 23 July 2007 Posted 23 July 2007 They will piss the league if Kluivert plays. Nah they wouldn't piss the league with him but he'd be a decent signing if they managed to get hold of him.
dandannieldanok Posted 23 July 2007 Posted 23 July 2007 No different to Fowler signing for Cardiff, these big time players who are past their best won't do anything to worry the rest of the teams.

Didn't realise Valencia was an Italian team

Didn't realise Valencia was an Italian team They were one of the teams to get booted out of Serie A cos of cheats ... No hang on that was Juventus.
Flynny Posted 23 July 2007 Posted 23 July 2007 They were one of the teams to get booted out of Serie A cos of cheats ...No hang on that was Juventus. Yeah I confuse Spanish and Italian teams all the time.
David O'Leary Posted 23 July 2007 Posted 23 July 2007 No different to Fowler signing for Cardiff, these big time players who are past their best won't do anything to worry the rest of the teams. just what i was thinking
The Reverend Posted 23 July 2007 Posted 23 July 2007 Yeah I confuse Spanish and Italian teams all the time. Mark Draper did.
Geo V Posted 24 July 2007 Posted 24 July 2007 He was a sub last season and seems to have lost the plot. Maybe he feels sorry for himself for falling from such heights. One of the funniest things I read about him was not giving Man Utd the courtesy of meeting them when Sir Alex had a bid accepted for him. They signed Dwight Yorke instead who did alright though
The People's Hero Posted 24 July 2007 Posted 24 July 2007 They will piss the league if Kluivert plays. Totally not as simple as that. If he still had the hunger for it, maybe. Lots of ifs and maybes though.
Geo V Posted 24 July 2007 Posted 24 July 2007 Totally not as simple as that.If he still had the hunger for it, maybe. Lots of ifs and maybes though. Surely the comment you responded too was in jest?? I dont care if Sheff Weds signed Ronaldinho, they still wouldnt win the league with the rest of the cack that they have on parade!! BTW, PK recent history... 2004–05- Newcastle United 25 games 6 goals 2005–06- Valencia 10 games 1 goal 2006–07- PSV Eindhoven 16 games 3 goals I'm not saying he has become a bad player or anything but he was released by PSV and apparently hasn't recovered from a few injuries in recent times. Fook knows what the injuries were but he may be worth a punt as he has only just turned 31.

They're actually quite good, hence nearly getting play-offs last season.
Jay Posted 24 July 2007 Posted 24 July 2007 The bloke couldn't be ar5ed to play for Newcastle or Valencia in the top european competitions so he's hardly going to be fired up by a trip to S****horpe!!
Geo V Posted 24 July 2007 Posted 24 July 2007 The bloke couldn't be ar5ed to play for Newcastle or Valencia in the top european competitions so he's hardly going to be fired up by a trip to S****horpe!! I would have preferred to take a punt on him instead of Carl Cort to be honest
David Villa Posted 25 July 2007 Posted 25 July 2007 Unfortunetly Cort does'nt try hard enough. I can just see Kluivert playing for them walking on to the pitch in his wellies.
Blue Bob Posted 25 July 2007 Posted 25 July 2007 Cant believe we havent been linked with him yet. Still time I suppose.
