I think I agree with you. Way past his best and I remember the expectations some had when we signed Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, and that excitement was short lived.

This. He may not be what he used to be but his presence alone should boost morale and improve the team. Plus his free kicks...c'mon they're good. Still think he has it in him, positively and hopefully.
C'mon Yaya, you know it makes sense.

Afraid some fans appear to be starstruck, and are easily impressed by big name players. We need players who can do a job now, not players who were good in years gone by.

Doesn't sound like a player who fancies a bottom 3 club though does it.
