Taken from the above Telegraph piece.. "Stoke City’s James Beattie remains on their list of targets to replace McCarthy, although his similar style to Jason Roberts, Franco Di Santo and Nikola Kalinic may see Allardyce opt for a forward player in a different mould. And Manchester City striker Benjani would appear to fit that bill and is believed to be being tracked by Rovers." Can someone explain how Benjani is any different to Roberts??

20 year old talent versus 32 yr old has been. Seem to remember people saying similar things about Sinama Pongolle (runs around a lot ((very quickly)) but can't score). Bet you'd have him back now though. Di Santo would be a cracking investment.
