Zigic Or ...

Okay then guys this debate raged last summer 6m for Zigic or 8m (conservative) for Chucho?

Now that we have seen Zigic and he has settled in given the choice who would you buy?

For me it has to be Zigic. Both were popular and had their fans. Uno certainly contributed in relieving pressure from the defence but he just didnt score enough goals and at 8m+
(very conservative figure probably more like 9.5m, 10m they were asking for) we had every right to expect the finished article.

Congratulations for getting Zigic and well done to Bid Eck and the coaches for the work they have done with him.

Ziggy already has more goals and I think more assists. No brainer.

zigic all day long - chucho was all show no go unfortunately. people say he troubled defences but he drifted too deep to collect the ball too often, allowing their midfield to cover the danger

wish him good luck though

I liked Chucho, and I thought he bought alot to the team...

But Ziggy all day for me

Much more effective on the pitch, and his attitude is 100 times better aswell

Chucho's the better footballer, skills, pace and trickery their goal scoring record is the leveller for both, Zigic's two nod ins in two is a direct result of our greater dimensional play which will increase any strikers opportunities on goal. Thats something the Serb's needed all season along with Jerome who possibly misses Chucho more than any other Blues squad player. On balance of inherent footballing skills, I think Benitez would do more for the sqaud in a second term at Blues, but that aint gonna happen, like the general Big Eck won't reverse a Custer decision!

Everytime he scores he looks so so happy! Welled up watching the replays of him hugging Cammy after scoring. 2 players who do not get the credit they deserve.

You can tell he just loves the crowd reaction when he scores, look at his celebrations!

Ziggy, Ziggy, Ziggy can't you see, sometimes your moves just hypnotise me :dancer:

Id pick chucho, if you look at all our goals last season he was involved in nearly every one.

I think he would of scored more goals in a second season too. Coming from south america its a whole different world to playing here.

Fair play to zigic for scoring 3 in 3, he needs to keep going now though.

Where am I going with this?

"Ziggy played striker, playing good with Seb and Bentley,
and the striker called Kev.
Left Villa to stand and watch from afar
Became the special man, then we were Ziggy's band"

Apologies to Bowie :(

Chucho for me, OK zigic has had some good games and some bad games but is 31 this year, Chucho is younger and IMO a better all round player.

Zigic might be 31 this year but he should be ok for a few years yet, it's not like we need to worry about him losing pace...

All he needs to do is stand on the goal line ready to nod the ball in....

It's taken Zigic a while to adapt but he looks like he's getting there now, and is proving to be a real thorn in the side for opposition defences, and you'd have to back him to get into double figures this season.

He has also scored 1/5 of our league goals this season which considering he's come off the bench a lot and also took a while to settle in is pretty decent going if you ask me...

Well I admire your independent position but seems a bit at odds with the overwhelming bias towards Zigic.

How on earth you can come up with it I dont know.

Chucho was a striker who couldnt score. He couldnt even score a penalty. The only time he did score was when they put the ball ON the line for him and let him knock it over with his tallywacker, his one and only goal at St Andrews. Gaining the affectionate nickname of "Uno" Benitez.

For the amount they were asking for him which was top whack excuse the pun. We had every right to expect more product from a forward.

He should have weighed in with half a dozen at least.

Ziga. Now that we have Oba (Chucho-like but can also score), it's not a difficult choice.
