Yeah would have been a good buy, but tbh adeboy, once he get's his scoring boots on, of his type, he's as good as there is around imo. api new year all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewyk71 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Please Please buy a tall centre forward that is strong and can contend , This togo man spends most of his time on the floor or trying to be a running winger, stay in the middle and man up at a contest . Lennon and bale have no one to cross too, Defoe would score plenty with a strong middle man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't for the life of me understand why he didn't pick a winger to replace Bale. It was obvious the way to beat them was using our width and pace as shown by Lennon. Was something wrong with Townsend /Falque? It was a win made far more difficult trying to play through the middle which was their best hope of containing us. Very happy with that result nonetheless and i hope he uses the Coventry game to rotate as we have a tough january fixture list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As was the cheque book needed last new year, when arguably we had a genuine chance of the title, what did we get? saha and nelson !!! I'll NEVER ever quite forgive/forget levy for that.Lets hope If vb buys anyone levy give's him the competitive budget for players that are genuine improvements on what we've got, not just further wallpaper.

Being linked to those two is like a long playing record. Now theres Wesley S thrown in! Think wages!! It will never happen. Mindyou after levy's total cop out this time last year its really down to him to spend sum cash. Thats cash on "quality" players. He badly let us down last january. if he does it again it will be unacceptable. If we beat QPR, Man Utd and Norwich and make a couple of quality signings we have to be taken seriously. The Guardian is reporting that Kaboul won't be back until february at the earliest which is a real blow. On a plus point we'll keep Dawson Edited January 3, 2013 by carmine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could just get a top quality goal scorer all these points being dropped in the last ten minutes wouldn'y happen because the match win would have been wrapped up in the first half. Defoes conversion rate of shots to goals is v poor. He needs far too many chances to score, a bit like Andy Cole used to be. Its still Leandro Damiao as the perfect fit striker for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People seem to confuse a "natural strikers instinct" with being as thick as two short planks. JD really isn't a thinker and is hopelessly predictable at times. Still all in all he's done a lot better for us this season in Adebayors earlier absense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That willen brace against the chavs looked good. last transfer window it was reported that willen said he 'preferred' a move to the prem, but said Shakter wouldnt allow it, long contract ect ect judging by willen's and a few others moans seems 'player power' in Russia aint quite what it is here, Edited January 3, 2013 by rijit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
