No, yet to prove he is better than Di Canio, Ashton, Tevez, Devonshire and Parkes for us. Hopefully he will be at least as good for us as they were though.

Trevs debut was at home vs Everton (97/98) in a 2-2 draw in which he scored both our goals.
Barmby and Madar got the Toffees'.

Sinclair was here before Kanoute. Fredi made his debut in the Wimbledon game where Trev's cross was famously volleyed by some Italian bloke.

Just stayed too long at QPR Sniper and once Sir Les left he was wasted there.Like all decent wingers/forwards he needed a link up.Considering we had DiCanio here for him to link with I thought what a great signing plus I think we had Kanoute too?
Just think he was class and a player i always saw as a threat and then he was our threat.

Little Pea fucker will no doubt be his new nickname when he fails to score within the first 20 minutes of his debut!

Not entirely sure his nickname translates as "Little pea fucker". Puts him in a very different light if it does though.

I can't see why Phil Parkes shouldn't qualify in this category and an excellent shout he is.
But the correct answer is, of course, Mr William Bonds.

This is ridiculous.
Hernandez is a decent striker and a good signing but no more than that. Talk about overload the poor Little Pea fucker before he's even kicked a ball!
Everyone is going way over the top about this. He went to Leverkusen for just over £7m two seasons ago and hardly anyone battered an eyelid. Let's get some balance.

Really? Agreed he was a great deal and an absolute steal, but he was a real gamble at the time - he'd been shit in the league below since QPR got relegated (and I was a huge fan) and didn't look a patch on the player he had been in the premier league

Plus Bellamy wound up all the Dykes and pinkos that follow us which was a massive bonus for me.

All justified suggestions, but I would say I was also fucking pleased when we signed Trevor Sinclair.

I think we've certainly tried over the last decade or so
Bellamy Dyer (yes really - he was still a good player when we signed him and not over the hill until he broke straight away!) Parker Payet
These were all well known top level players with good years left in them, Parker in particular (although his award with is showed that he fulfilled his potential whilst with us)
However in terms of world wide internationally recognisable players who aren't viewed as talented but risky troublemakers (which rules out Bellamy and payet and even tevez) Hernandez is by far the best

I couldn't give a fuck what Di Canio did for his previous clubs, he delivered for us and that's all that mattered to me, he also has more career goals

I don't really understand why Parkes wouldn't fall into this category?
Probably the best keeper we've ever had.

`Hernandez has played and scored regularly for 3 of the biggest clubs in Europe and is the all time top scorer for a top 15 international side`.
Yeah played... mostly as sub.... especially for Man U and RM... just looked and his last season at Man U he had 24 apps and only started 6 and with RM he had 23 apps and only started 7... like I said lets give the lad a chance before we start going all Life of Brian and claiming him as the New Messiah...
