Spot on.... same for me, all I know is that apparently he has bad teeth.
Ferguson is back in the Hunt

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Oi...that was Austin Powers..not "the Hunter"
A great video lasting almost 10 minutes that takes you through whole Huntelaar's career. Splendid player.
Ajax 6-1 Alkmaar
Another 2 goals from "The Hunter"

I just watched the second half of that. He played well.
Though AZ played the second half with 10 men.
19 goals in 22 games this season.
Hist goal scoring record is fantastic, i know its only the Dutch league, but im pretty confident he could continue his great record in the Premiership.
He's a predator in the box, just like Ruud was for us.

I get the feeling that although hes a goalscorer, hes too limited. Not saw him alot though.
Goals from today's game:

Also, he scored another goal which did not stand because the referee (mistekenly) felt the ball did not cross the line:

He also had a nice chip shot which hit the crossbar:

i get the same feeling, though i haven't seen him over the course of a full match.
I havent seen him at all, i just note that everytime Ajax score Huntelaar is almoust always on the scoreline. Apart from that we have seen Berbatov and know how he plays and that he has what it takes to success with us.
Huntelaar is an out-and-out striker and could form a formidable frontline with either Wayne Rooney or Carlos Tevez dropping off the 6ft 1in striker.
Already Huntelaar has been touted as the new Ruud van Nistelrooy, a player sorely missed by United since his departure to Real Madrid in 2006.
This is taken from an article in the Telegraph - RVN "sorely missed" - what rubbish is that? Since he left, United have not only won the league, but have played the best football by a country mile.

I think it he could become a star or be a flop if United sign him, where as Berbatov is arguably a star already and would pretty much be guranteed to be able to hack at United and in England(which he has already proven)
Huntelaar is definitely a goal poacher with a great scoring record. From watching the AZ game and a few other this year, he does have a real lack of pace though.
He'll gurantee goals, no question.
They said that about Kezman.
Have you actually seen him play? Besides youtube clips
Nevermind 
No, hang on a minute.Nevermind
All I said was everyone went on about how Kezman will guarantee goals when he came to the Prem, just like you have about Huntelaar. The truth is, you cannot say for certain that a foreigner coming into the PL will guarantee goals. Many flop. Kezman, Forlan, Shevchenko to name just a few who were supposed to 'guarantee goals'.
18 league games 18 goals sofar .
Same as Ruud.
Kezman went to a club where he wasn't a first choice striker, that doesn't help plus he had good record only in the league, outside he was always pretty poor.
My thoughts exactly
Yes, just proves it can go either way, but to say he will guarantee goals is not true.
Lets say United will get him for 12 mill, how many goals do you expect from him to call him a good deal?? 10?? 20??
The same amount as Ronaldo
The same amount as Ronaldo
Well i dunno about that , but i garantee you at least 15 goals .
True. But most people who haven't watched him can't fathom how good and natural a finisher this guy is. Currently In world football, I can say he has no equal as a finisher.
Natural finishing, alone, won't make you succeed in the Premiership, just ask Shevchenko, it will definatly be a massive asset, but you have to have more than just the ability to finish. Now I've never seen the guy play, but from what I've heard about him, he is just a finisher, nothing else, of course, I don't know if thats true and even if it is, that doesn't mean he wouldn't succeed, but the whole debate started when someone said he will 'guarantee goals', something which is simply not true.
Dirk Kuyt looked like a star in the Dutch league. Makes me very wary, but if Fergie has been watching him for a long time then maybe he has potential. I don't think we'll be signing him though.
That's a wrong example. Scheva is more than a finisher. I'd say Crespo instead. But I agree with your point
But this guy can. He is like Michael Owen, with less pace but much more brain. His off the ball and running is superb. Hist first touch good. His pace decent. Plus He is supreme in the air. His main weakness though is he is technically very basic a player. His hold up play. is not defined (To be fair to him though Ajax doesn't play a system that needs him to hold it up) plus there are question marks about how good he is at link up play. But with the creative Arsenal we currently have. He'd be in heaven..
I agree. Nothing is guaranteed with transfers. Nothing. We all just speculate. Scheva and Henry's current states can testify to this.
Think you've fallen into the gooners wankfest there. might need to remove the capital
covering your bases there mate!
Well to be honest I'd rather us get rossi back in the team. Since we aren't playing with as much width, we really don't need the strength in the air... only in corners and we have that with Saha, Ronaldo and Vidic
20 easily
Saha drops down to fourth striker?
Please
feck Arsenal F.C. The world is an English word. Not just a club name... Huntelaar is not just about aerial power. He is about finishing and movement. Which even Rossi can't match.
I caught a few Ajax games last year, and he was occasionally playing a holding role. He worked well with Sneijder and the other winger (whose name I forget right now?) But their inter-passing and movement was great.
And yes, he is lethal in the air.
Here's a video with ten of his best goals (well, at least according to the guy who made the video, Jaap Stam also makes a nice cameo :
