You can take that to the Baink
"This is a big signing for us. He brings leadership to the team, he has been a winner in everything he has done and his goal record stands up to scrutiny."
"What shone out when I spoke to him was that he still wanted to achieve things. He is a top, top player who I think will become a focal part of the dressing room, a focal part of the team and a focal part of the future." (more)
It is appears obvious that JFH, who has scored between 16 and 26 goals in each of his 9 Premiership seasons, took a serious pay cut to join Charlton today. As Richard Murray said: "No-one has ever come to Charlton for money."
I believe this is an excellent signing for us for a number of reasons. He is a proven goalscorer (18 last season), it demonstrates to Darren Bent, and us, great intention and ambition and Hasselbaink has all the characteristics of a real mentor, like DiCanio was, in the dressing room.
In what is becoming a daily occurrence Dowie again expressed a change in man management style when he said: "I don't want players in the dressing room who feel they are standing on egg shells - I like characters who feel like they can have their say."
