Which is the same as the player himself, so I guess it was a perfect match?
Seriously though, he's a good player in this league. Better than Robbie Fowler? Not a chance. Better than Paul Ifill? No way.
My comments are purely to wind up Overloaded who has given us 15 pages of "Smeltz is going to a big European club", "Smeltz is world class" blah, blah, blah.
To selectively cut my post about being a poacher is a bit much though. You blokes ought to watch him play and perhaps look back through his archives and show me a goal or two scored solely by Smeltz's pure class or invention.
Then go and have a look at a good European league number 9 and try to tell me Smeltz is on that level.
