Would You Take A Punt On Christian Vieri?

Is this a sexual question?Is punting a new gay term

Yeah like everyone else wouldnt mind as long as he could get himself fit enough. If he is carrying a few pounds pre season would soon burn that off.

Why not? He used to play in Bergamo. Colder than the UK in winter.

Difference being Blackpool is quite different to Atalanta! Playing for a lesser wage in a foreign country at an older age, quite a lot can go wrong and effect his commitment.

Anyway, not a chance he'd sign for us.

He's an Aussie - hardly a massive cultural difference (despite N Zelic) and I bet he's played at places such as Lecce, Ascoli, Ancona and Como where you also have the proverbial outposts of Italian football.

on a pay per play contract, meaning he'd have to get his fat #### into gear then most definitely. For the younger lads having someone like vieri around would be great for their development

Agreed that is exactly the way woukd have to approach such a signing like this.

I'd LOVE to see Christian Vieri at Championship level. He'd score 50 goals - if he gets any service - at this level.

But his wages must be astonishing....

[AscotR's]

would depend if he's fit AND if he can be bothered to actually put any effort in playing in the CCC. Would just be a pay day for him, cant see him getting overly excited about Tuesday trips to Peterborough

[qblockpete]

Why?

Not saying its him, but some Italian clubs are not glamorous and the winter weather can be s.hite

Well I'm sure Kaspars Gorkks isn't exactly wetting himself about that prospect either.
Or Akos Buzsaky, or Rowan Vine.

Or anyone else come to that.








Apart from Peterborough.

Vieri is a total lump now, a few pounds in pre season, he would have to shift a about 2.5 stone. His legs have gone, i watched him for fiorentina about a year ago and it was embarrassing. The Championship is a physical fast league he would be left standing.

After that slating can i say that in his day he was untouchable , the spearhead for the Azurri absolute class.
