Was frustrating reading this yesterday without being able to comment (new member!). All-in-all, could be better, could be worse. Probably better than Kennedy, Harriott, and McAuleny.
Hope he does as well as the last Ricardo to play up front for us! In fact I'm going to dig out an old version of fifa (13?) And stick them both up top together and see how they do!
I must say I am quite excited by this. Probably turn out to be misplaced, but if he produces what we know he's capable of it can only be good.
I fancy him to star in a shock 3-1 win away at Birmingham which will rejuvenate our belief and enthusiasm and take the legs away from the planned protest against Ipswich; a game which we will lose 6-0 sending the "anti's" into an apoplectic rage on CL against the regime and the apathetic majority. The apathetic majority decide to stick one to the regime with literally tens of people boycotting on a cumulative game by game basis over a prolonged period of time. I'm sorry, I don't know where that came from
I think you're Nuts; or 1 bag short of the half dozen

We need a player who can impose himself on defences and perhaps score a few. Not a chancer. Not a 6'7" basketball player with few footballing skills. YK or a younger, cheaper version? Ciftci still not starting for Celtic.
I fail to understand how you can be wrong so often. Do you actually watch the games sober ? Apologies, but I find it unbelieveable. The only games we've won this season, were the games that Makienok played 90 mins in.
The number of games played is too low to be statistically meaningful, and you can't deduce that we won because Makienok played 90mins anymore than you can say Makienok played 90mins because we were winning so we didn't need to take him off. However, that doesn't detract from how well he played in the Wendies game, nor does it excuse how poor he was in other games.

Sorry, just cannot agree he was poor as you suggest in other games. Wins lots of headers and has lots of strength which allows him to hold off defenders to bring the ball down. Has also added to defence. He was just isolated.
I don't quite understand the 'good player at this level'. Wasn't it nearly 5 years ago he was decent at this level? He's barely played any football. Underwhelmed with this, but beggars can't be choosers I guess.
After looking at the stats, sorry is was 2011/12 he was decent at this level with Barnsley then West Ham - still not sure on him.
And then subsequently he played in the premier league for West Ham. So he was decent at a higher level more recently.
Was he decent? Or was he playing from the subs bench because he wasn't 'decent'? Look a this career, he's had one 'decent' full season! The Premiership season wasn't it.
A premier league sub is still way above the level we're currently operating at
So Marvin Sordell last season was better than Vetokele or Watt last season??
Personally i think its a good signing, he may not be fit now but if he does hit the ground running like he said then happy days. Being a free agent he is obviously a lot cheaper so RD will be chuffed but at least he does have some quality..im sure there are a lot worse out there!

Beggars can't be choosers and outside of the transfer window we are limited to signing unemployed footballers. Here's hoping he gets himself back on track with us
He went to Rotherham before us, why he did not join, we may never know but they have now signed Leon Best, will be interesting to see who gets the better deal

I saw this, but not sure what happened. Did we nick him before they made an offer or did he reject them? Would like to know but know I will never know.
I have no doubt whatsoever that we have the better player though.
Reza has 2 qualifying games, including a game in Guam on Tuesday - one of those Pacific Islands north of Papua New Guinea. I hate to imagine what condition he'll be in when he gets back, so Vaz Te could feature against Birmingham even
I'll be covering it more in depth in my World Cup Update tomorrow but...
Iran have played their match against Guam, (winning 6-0), and the best news of all... Reza was an unused substitute so despite travelling around the world he only played 15mins of Football against Turkmenistan so fingers crossed he'll be okay for Saturday depending on Jet-Lag

He'll be annoyed to not play that match, a perfectly opportunity to do a Karim Bagheri and break Charlton's international goal scoring record!
As it is, he's spent the week flying around the world to play 15 minutes.
