....but I like discussing people's various ideas for a DP, assumign they'd be reasonably realistic additions with a DP salary (i.e. no Cristiano Ronaldos).
I still think the following players are good bets:
Kleber Boas -Brazilian -- Is 32 and his deal at Santos ran out a month ago. Had a huge season in Brazil so maybe they'll offer him a new deal.
Liedson - Brazilian - Is 30 and a local legend at Sporting in Lisbon but maybe a big deal would tempt him. Huge record, something like 1 goal every 2 games at Sporting over the last five or so years.
Washington - Brazilian - Has scored more than 20 goals this season for Fluminese despite people thinking his height was the only reason he ripped the Japanese J-League apart for years; has done so despite missing several games with injury. He's 33 and his contract runs out at the end of 2008.
Martin Cardetti -- Argentine - Although he's a risk, because in south america at River Plate he scores like its free, and in Europe he couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. He's had an up and down time of late and is at Colon right now. Might also be worth waiting him out til he leaves there and getting for less than a dp deal.
Flavio Amado - Angola - Plays in Egypt. Has been rumoured to be a target for Hull and Bristol Rovers. Scores goals in bunches, is an excellent finisher and set up man, and is good in the air, too. And he's only in his late 20's.
Wesley Sonck - Belgian former hitman for Ajax and Genk has come back from kidney disease and is now playing for Club Brugge in his home country. He's 30.
Carlos Costly from Honduras was also on this list, too, but we know how that went, unfortunately.
