Luca Toni

Is it really any wonder that Bayern don't want Luca Toni? This is a guy who has about 15 goals in over 50 appearances for Italy. He had one good season with Bayern and thinks he can stay there for the rest of his life, demanding playing time when there are far superior players in front of him. Chief among these players are Mario Gomez and Ivica Olic, who vastly outclass the giant Italian.

Anyone who has seen Luca Toni play know that he is a poacher and a big target man, and that is literally it. No linkup play, no shooting boots, no crossing ability, and absolutely no speed or agility. And now that he's losing his poaching ability, there is no doubt that nobody would want him for anything. Or would they? Apparently West Ham and Tottenham are both in the market for him. My question is: why? Why bring an aging piece of shit to the Premier League? Players in the Premier League, with the exception of Ryan Giggs, do not age well. Toni should return to Italy, where a team like Parma or Livorno could actually benefit from his services. Better yet, he should come to MLS where his movie-star looks could net him a sponsorship deal while people ignore his actual non-achievments on the pitch. The best thing for everyone? Retirement. Get this fucker off the world stage. Lippi shouldn't even consider him while Amauri is a possibility, Iaquinta is available, and Gilardino makes his case. Fuck Luca Toni, that noob is awful.
