My first thought when I heard about it. If he's not good enough for them why is he good enough for us?
I'm also concerned about his age & fitness, esp after our experiences with the likes of Baggio. I suppose we know he can cut it in the English premiership, and people have written off the likes of Les Ferdinand, Sheringham, Paulo Di Canio in recent times only to see them reward a manager who took the risk.
If we get him, he can only make us better. We cant get much worse at the moment!
probably as they couldnt afford to keep him
