sphericalfox Posted 31 August 2011 Posted 31 August 2011 Fourth Official just confirmed that Yakubu has signed for Blackburn. Looks like he wasn't lying about not being bothered about playing in the Championship then.
cc_star Posted 31 August 2011 Posted 31 August 2011 Must be the only one on here who is sighing with relief . I don't think he would have come here with the right attitude thinking he's to good for this division . I think time will tell and Blackburn will rue the day they signed him , He wasn't even good enough for Everton for Christ sake . Don't get people talking about players attitude unless you know the guy? The Yak has scored a healthy amount of goals year after year after year after year after year - if thats a bad attitude, I wish Darius "do feck all other than dribble towards the corner flag" Vassell would grow one too. Turning your nose up at him with no one approaching his ability within miles of this club is odd, very, very odd.

Raw Dykes Posted 31 August 2011 Posted 31 August 2011 oh well he will probably end up in the championship with blackburn. Yes, I think that was the joke.

We've now got Beckford who is twice the player Yakubu is, and has a far better goalscoring record to prove it. Blackburn's fate has been sealed by today's business.

Filbert_Ross Posted 1 September 2011 Posted 1 September 2011 Yakubu- just the player you need when your gonna be in a relegation scrap ay. PFFT
Babylon Posted 1 September 2011 Posted 1 September 2011 We've now got Beckford who is twice the player Yakubu is, and has a far better goalscoring record to prove it. No he hasn't, Yakubu has played at the highest level for years, Beckford has had one year there as a bit part player. Before that he was scoring in league one.
accessory Posted 1 September 2011 Posted 1 September 2011 No he hasn't, Yakubu has played at the highest level for years, Beckford has had one year there as a bit part player. Before that he was scoring in league one. Beckford - 104 goals in 214 appearances. Yakubu - 122 goals in 322 appearances (UK only) Since tearing his achilles in 2008, the Yak managed 7 goals in 51 games for Everton. During that time, Beckford's record for Everton was 10 goals in 39 games. David Moyes, a decent and respected Premier manager, rated Beckford above the Yak and so, it appears, does Sven. We shouldn't pine for the one that got away.
Head Honcho Posted 1 September 2011 Posted 1 September 2011 Can we close this thread now? Hooray In fact, can we close all the transfer threads?
