What can you say to that really. Well I suppose the 3 you are going on about are Owen (Have you seen his goalscoring record??) Baros, top scorer at Euros and about to overtake Czech goalscoring record that has stood since 1930's and Pongolle who if we remember caused one of wengers only publicised outbursts when we took him from under thier noses (although Im sure this was just in jest with his ol pal Houllier). Not a bad three and even if you think the role of cisse is as simplistic as you have written or his talents that narrow then he is still gonna be great.
From what I have seen, and you can talk all you want about Frances dire league (which I dont believe), he looks to have the potential to be Heskey (on his day) and Henry rolled into one. Im not saying he is now or ever will be at that level but the guy has that possibility. We should thank Houllier for this one as it was probably him having a word in Roux's ear about developing him etc that got him in the first place.
Im not going to overeact to that first post coz I feel 100% confodent that the lad is going to be pure class
