But El Turi was just a stupid punt. We've had Gifton around for at least a little while, the coaching staff must have some idea on his general fitness and think it is worth getting him in.
Personally I'm undecided, it would be another gamble, but we won't sign a better striker this summer.
But will there be a better centre forward available to us this summer.
And buying him doesn't necessarily mean we're going to be playing long ball. He is a good player on the ground.
