I dont like players that doesnt have any passion for a club. Cause its not normal to say ˝Milan or Inter, I really don't care˝
But If Cruz wasnt here I would like to have our version of Pippo goal, in Crespo. But having Cruz and most likely recoba too then crespo is probably too much...Ofcourse, with adriano and oba still there

With all due respect to Cruz, it's a shame to compare him with Crespo. Even if Cruz played for the teams that Crespo played for, I doubt he'd achieve what Crespo did.

Crespo is a legend, simple as that. And I believe he has 3-4 years left in him, his style of play is one that favours longevity. And unlike Toni, he has proved that he can score with any team, any formation and any league!

I am not saying let's get him. But neither Toni nor Cruz got ANYTHING on Crespo.

Marti, I respect Crespo for saying the truth!

Only few players will say the truth, and even fewer will genuinely prefer us to Milan or vice-versa. I hate it when players lie and say 'I always had a dream to play for X.'

Hamed I think you're wrong in saying that Toni hasn't played good with every team he's played for. Crespo hasn't played good for Chelsea, whereas Toni I don't think has ever had a bad spell with any team. No doubt that Crespo has acheived more, but I don't think he is better. Toni is just unfortunate to have been discovered at such an older age.

Crespo was rarely used by Chelsea. Also, he was being used as a lone-forward, which didn't suit him.

In fact, Crespo did overachieve, if you compare how most South American strikers do in the EPL.

You could be right about Toni, but that's a 'what if' etc. All I am saying is that Crespo, in terms of achievements and history, shouldn't be compared to Cruz and Toni at the moment. It all could change in few years, but I am judging for the present.

But Hamed we don't buy players in terms of 'history and achievments' we buy players in terms of how potent and dangerous they are right now and what they can do for our club. For me Toni = instant success. Crespo = possible success but not what we're looking for.

respect for Crepso for saying the truth, I am amazed by that, but how nice is to have non-passion player in your team?

But Crespo maybe doesnt give a damn what shirt he is wearing but he will allways give his best and he still has 2 class years in front of him, I am sure

I never said buy him. I was just commenting on those who tried to show that Crespo is inferior to Toni and Cruz.

I would go for toni before crespo, It's for sure, but In my opinion Toni is worth around 15, while Crespo should be around 5.

And that makes differences in choosing.
If Chelsea are really that crazy and wont let crespo go for less then a 10 then big NO!

but I am sure we could get him on loan, just like Milan did, or like we did with Seba Veron.

Right now, HE IS inferior. If you want to talk about ancient history then bring on Batistuta, but now Crespo is not the player he used to be.

Some things hamed said in this thread are on point,also with chelsea he wasnt a starter and he still did very well,his scoring rate is as good as cruz's reate this year and as i said he wasnt a starter,and altho toni scored 31 goals last year,i still think crespo would be a much better option for us,crespo is 31 and toni is 29,not that much of a differance,if crespo player regulary again i am sure he can score alot.

Also lol crespo didnt prefer milan to us,thats something i have never read about a player,also what passion?the guy is an argentenian and he played with us and with milan each 1 year,he cant be passionate about a club where he only played 1 year with,not everyone is javier zanetti.

Frisk, Crespo is arguably inferior to Toni...yes it's possible, but to even mention him in the same sentence as Cruz is absurd. Cruz will never amount to the class that Crespo has reached, and Crespo's form and career certainly hasn't gone downhill just yet.

Toni > Crespo >>>>>> Cruz

I dont understand why cruz was brought into crespo coming to inter,i mean cruz will be our 3rd striker,and crespo or toni one of them will start next to adriano,cruz deserves more than to be just our 3rd striker but it looks like the plan will be that he will be our 3rd striker and adriano and the new striker will be our starters.

With all due respect to those 21 goals he scored, Cruz is nothing but a bench striker for a club like inter.

exactly Cruz !? we do not owe him anything just remeber Oba played well when coming off the bench but when we give him a chanche he could not handle the pressure. If Adriano can not than Cruz who is underachiveing his whole will not so either. ANd if TOni is sure thing about our striking problem then i give donation to get him. (but i do not hink he can solve our problems)

Ithin is better solution that we give that kind of amount for something else.

ANd one thing more if Fiore does not eant to sell him let him have it. ANd he will be a flop next year.

As Hamoudi mentioned I don’t think many here would want Crespo back. But come on, comparing him with Cruz and the oh so hyped up Italian prodigy Toni is just ridiculous.

Just wanted to add on what Hamed said earlier regarding Crespo’s achievement / situation here in the UK. Crespo himself have openly admitted that he doesn’t enjoy the lifestyle in UK and therefore would love to return to Italy. Hence, considering that aspect has done pretty well for Chelsea. Anyhow, no need to talk much on this thread as the possibility of him returning to us is extremely farfetched.

You're right Ashkan, they shouldn't be compare, Crespo is not good enough to clean Cruz's boots.
yeah ok, I rest my case!
