Yep,Julio Cruz is now 30 years old!

He isn't an influential guy but I was impressed by him last season,may he have a good future and may he bag more goals for Inter!

Happy birthday, Julio!

I definately like him. He's proven to be a valuable player off the bench, hard working and has some skill on the ball. Doesn't complain about his lack of play and knows his role on the team well.

He could be a great player for a decent squad in the Serie A, he was one of Bologna's best players in the past.

Happy birthday, Julio Cruz!! I was quite shocked too, that he managed to even score last season, especially against top clubs such as Arsenal and Juventus.

BTW, does Cruz have a middle name of Ricardo? I think I read it somewhere. Not sure though.

[Frisko]

Great post Patrick, I completely agree with you.

And yes scutzon, his middle name is Ricardo.

Happy birthday Jardino

Happy bday Cruz.

Cruz is a great forward,but we have many great forwards ,like Martins ,Rocaba and BOBO,so he is alaway on the bench and not gives our fans good memories except we won Jven last season,he scored two goals and helped squed get 3 points .Now BOBO is not in form,Martins was injured against Roma,Rocaba's perfomance proves he is the right partner alongside A10,so I hold the view that he is a good sub ,if our two forwards are not in form or the defenders of our opponnets are good ,we can take him on the pitch,maybe he can give our fans surprise like we winning Jven last season.

Happy Birthday Cruz! He always works hard for the team and scored some good goals last season.

Cruz is committed. He had the chance during the summer to quit Inter and go to another side where he could be a definate striker but he decided to stick it out here. I don't know if its money or not but even if it is its still dedication to stay with us

Hopefully he can really turn up the heat when he gets a chance to play so that he can get more playing time.

[Hammoudi]

I am a big fan of Julio. I was skeptical when he was brought in for Crespo but he has won me over. He is skilled and comitted, had he had more playing time he'd have been even better. Good Work and hope to see more of you and your goals Julio!

BTW, IMO he has the best hair style in the team and in Europe!!!

[Frisko]

It's great to see more Julio Cruz's fan in here.

Everytime he plays I see many people making comments like: "I didn't even notice him", "He didn't do anything". Obviously they can't see how much he works for the team and they only judge him on how many goals he scores.

Well , I like him and i really adored him at some matches Juve's match as well as the gunners in London . However I think that he fulfills the 4th striker role . I wouldn't opt for him to start when Adriano , martins , Recoba and Vieri are on form . But i think he can finish matches though he is the kind of player that needs to play alot to see his magic .
