Yes, because he and Drogba (or Sheva) would work well as a partnership. Klose could create a ton of chances, not just score goals.
In this respect, the Pizarro transfer actually makes a lot of sense, because he is similar. Pizarro might surprise a lot of people next season, provided Mourinho gives him a real chance, and he gets used to the new league fast.

Are you defending the Pole Blue? Last news I heard about him, is that he is going to backstab Bremen by demanding a move to the Babarians!

imagine Barca under Schuster
the club would combine Catalan efficiency with German flair
target
why is that Klose has scored more goals at World Cups than Ruud , Adriano and Owen combined
now Fack off yourself
I think you need to swap efficiency and flair in that sentence.

btw, attention big 4 - Atletico have slumped in the last few games of the season and barring a win next week coupled with a Villarreal loss, they will miss out on the Uefa cup next year. This means that Torres is 99% certain to move this summer. Could spark a bit of a merry go round if he stays in Spain - if Valencia sign him, for example, then Villa *could* be available.

What about Manchester United , could he be that link up man with Wayne Rooney ?

I want him to leave, no doubt, but not because I question his footballing ability, but his character. It would be idiotic to question his ability just because he pisses you off.

If Villa had the choice in England I'm certain he would pick Liverpool, because of the Spanish links and the fact that we've shown the most interest in England.

Must be the insular mentality.
Klose in normal form could help any of the so called "top four" clubs.
Berbatov is probably the most overrated player in the EPL, scored a total of 1 goal against the teams in the top half of the table. Just about all his goals have come against weak opposition. Reminds me of another player, scored 3 of his 5 world cup 2002 goals against Saudi Arabia.
Manu are clearly not breaking the bank for him as they didn't even make an offer. Carrick was not for sale either but was sold for the right offer. No offer was ever made for berbatov. Let's see how he does in his 2nd season.

He would fit perfectly in an attacking team that needs a striker not just for scoring goals, but for link up play also. That's why Bayern want him so much, they'll play a double pivot system with two creative wing players, and need a striker with Klose's abilities, because Toni (or Makaay and even Podolski) is more of a natural goal scorer type.
And since most big clubs don't play with a true number 10 these days, strikers with similar abilities like Klose will become more important in future.

He's not in the slightest bit over-rated, it's not just goals, his all round play is sublime.

Jose Mourinho appears to have long given up on Andrei Shevchenko recapturing his AC Milan form, whilst recent signing Claudio Pizarro from Bayern Munich, some would say, seems no more than a signing of convenience.
The author is awful totally clueless in his football appreciation. He comes straight from the Gray-Motson school of sports journalism. I'm sure he was quoting them in his Mourinho comment.

he is flavour of the month at the minute because of his nice first touch
but 110 % does have a point about him against the better teams. he still has a long way to go before proving that he is worthy of the hype he is currently getting
as for the polish plumber, I wouldn't say no to him going to liverpool but obviously hopefully rafa aims a lot higher

McCarthy has been better, so has Anelka. And of course drogba is far better.
He has a nice touch and does a few flicks and tricks but he's slow. He has scored some great goals but I don't hardly remember him doing a thing against the bigger teams. His whole reputataion is based on him looking stlyish not actually scoring goals.

Klose and Ruud aren't similar at all.
I'd even go as far as saying that Klose is more a Rafa style player.
He'd fit with all of the big 4. Only United need more of a #9 though.

I can see why people think Berbs is overrated and his goal scoring record against the top sides is pretty suspect. But he scored against Chelsea in the Fa cup at the bridge and got an assist as well.
I personally think he is a wonderful player and his all round game is brilliant. I would love to have him at united and I would choose him over all the other strikers in the prem*
*Henry is a better player, but I couldnt stand watching him shrug his shoulders in a united shirt. Drogba is also better than him, but he lacks the finese and technique of dracula. We would have to play power football with Drogs, but with berbs we would play beautiful football

Waste of time.
The fact he is the third all time leading goalscorer in Premiership history should surely mean something.

If we signed Klose, it would mean liking one of ottos love children and we dont want to be put in that situation.
Can you imagine the Premiership board filled with threads from Otto about how rooney is jealous of Klose and doesnt pass to him and if Klose sets up Rooney; that the prinz is carrying Rooney and making him look good.
No ones mentioned Klose as a possible united signing, although his performances this seaon havent been spectacular.

I very much doubt he has scored many against arsenal saints. call it a hunch
He is probably the one player that has caused liverpool the most trouble over the years, well apart from john o'shea that is
henry's goal scoring record is SPECTACULAR
