Yak Attack!

It would seem as though our prediction will come true after all, as Yakubu Aiyegbeni could very well be paraded this week along with Manuel Fernandes after Middlesbrough agreed a record £11.25 million fee with Everton for the player's services.

The deal looked dead in the water over the week end as Everton could not find common ground with Boro over a realistic transfer fee.

This has been rectified however, and the player could be available following a medical and agreeing personal terms for saturday's visit of Blackburn.

The Yak is widely expected to take the number 9 shirt, with Fernandes preferring the number 37 after being offered the number 10.

Riquelme next? hehe!

I have just had a bet with a kopite relative he'l be better value than torres. of course the news was met by the usual, 'waste of money' 'beattie mark II' jibes. We'll see

He'll score the goals, given the service. Can be a bit lazy & is very much up for the money.

I think you would have done better to sign a real yak! This guy is the laziest forward in the Premiership.

i think he's been bought for the goals not the workrate, and stats don't lie, he scores a lot.

He could be just what you need as you do struggle to score goals.

I believe congrats are in order here, Yakubu was solid every time we played Boro and a quality player. Best of luck to him and you.
Blue is the colour
