He seems like a great signing overall, only 2 downsides, he's hardly prolific, scoring 20 goals in 5 and a half seasons, though 15 in 53 internationals isn't so bad and he's another that'll be out muscled by the likes of Bolton no doubt... Apparently he was brought down 38 times in one game against Bayern Munich and they had 2 players sent off as a result! So if he gets the players sent off who foul him it'll be alright I guess...

Still, he'll be another technically gifted player who should sign in europe at least, so hopefully we'll be able to go one better next season! I just hope we add some more firepower and physicality now, which is what we really need... Could mean the end of Pires' Arsenal career now though...
