Jo Or Santa Cruz, Which One Is Worse

[Mike J]

There is a difference between being shite and being injury prone. Santa Cruz is not shite, nor has he ever been, he is an excellent player, the problem is he is never fit enough to show it.

As for Jo, he's an ok player, not good enough for us or other teams in the prem but will do ok in Brazil.

Santa Cruz was the worse signing for us though because of the outlay spent on him and for the little return we have had from him, but that is not his fault, that is Hughes' fault.

See, that's fucking massive load of steaming shite. Santa Cruz is "excellent player". Like I said in OP, there's always some fanboy about but "excellent player"???? Jesus shit.

can you just not accept that others may have a different opionion to you regarding santa cruz. im not a fanboy in any sense, i just think he is a good player who has been completely hampered by injury.

[Mark Garrett]

Has to be Jo as the worse player - still can't work out one positive footballing attribute he has.

[Cityfan]

I'd go Jo but intermes of worst buy of the century compared with funds available I reckon Samaras beats either.
Inthe overall scheme of things RSC's transfer fee does not really matter to us, we were having to overpay to recruit players at the time and fortunately we have the financial backing to do it. RSC was just a bad mistake that you get in a mass recruitment.
Jo didn't cost us because we were taken over shortly after but has been pretty awful.
Samaras blew our budget when we needed to be careful about every penny we spent in order to stay in the premiership and finacially afloat. He came close to costing us our premiership existence.

Quite a fun post for you Anti I am sure:)I am surprised you bothered making a thread up to make out you were comparing the two when all you wanted to do was slaughter RSC which you seem to love to do.

Do make sure you have a diary not in for say September to start another thread to vent your feelings.

I am not a fanboy of Santa Cruz nor was that a "fucking massive load of steaming shite". I'd love to live in your simple world one day when "he cost £17.5m and he is always injured?, he is fucking shite, my grandma is better than him" must be brilliant.

If he's never fit enough to show he's an excellent player, how do YOU know he's an excellent player?

Because he has played a certain amount of games for us where i have seen glimpses of what he can do and i have seen him for Paraguay and Blackburn you pedantic sod ;-)

Haha...sorry mate had to do it.

It's got to be Jo for me - he masquerades as a Brazilian

Nah, this is genuinely something I was thinking while driving to work this morning. I think shit like this while driving. They are both fucking massive busts and horrible players. I could make case for both. What I DO know fot CERTAIN though is that neither of them are "excellent players". Both are shite. Which one is worse though? That's a tough one.

And diaries are for women and leaders of men. I'm neither.

I don't mind holding my hands up for this. RSC is probably the only City player I've genuinely and openly disliked .... I think it stemmed from his constant press interveiews about what we were/should be doing when he'd done nothing on the pitch (because of injury granted) to back any of it up. He might as well have pontificated on here as a fan. Weird because I never openly slate our own but something about him just bugs me ....

[HeyMark]

NQDP - Its a big swing from your posts about Jo after his 2 goal debut for Everton. I remember you cursing Hughes for sending him out on loan.

Good to see you've seen the error of your ways ;)

[Patrick]

I have seen a lot of Jo playing shite, I haven't seen much of Santa playing shite, I have never seen either play well for city... Therefore Jo wins the poll, Santa is saved by his knees

[Chinners]

Ha ha, if he had any knees ....

Basically. I'd only swap the word "excellent" for the word "good".

If you think RSC is rubbish & your only evidence is some wikipedia statistic of goals scored, you're full of shit. The guy was dogged by injuries all his career, but the talent was always there. I doubt a club like Bayern would've kept an injury prone player for 7 years, if they thught/knew he was a turd. He had a good WC, too.

So, what's the poll about then? Worse player (Jo) or worse transfer (RSC by a mile)?

Wow that really is sad. A player that hasnt been involved or even on the team radar for ages and you still think about him going into work.He really has got under your skin hasn't he.I can only hope you get over it eventually

Care to fuckin explain that comment a bit? Aren't you the guy that was willing to fight any fucker around over Robinho and Elano, two "Brazilian stars". Don't come much more "typical modern day football supporter" than being all star struck about some names on the back of the shirt.

Don't know about radar but they are both on the payroll.

Fight any fucker over two brazilian footballers on the internet? Think you've got me confused mate with somebody else. You are a typical modern day football supporter because you see everything in such a simplistic way and are way OTT instead of thinking about things a little deeper and finding the true answer which is proved by your slating of Santa Cruz. You call him shit because he is injured and you will respond to me with "i call him shit because he has played shit for City", well why has he played shit for City? because he has never had a run because he is always injured. It makes him an unfortunate injured player, not a shit one. Doesn't matter if he has been bought for £17.5m or £1.75m, he isn't a shit player and shouldn't be mentioned anywhere near Jo in a worse player poll, worst transfer like others have said and you have a point.
