a shit load of cash in wages ...

 

on a short term loan till the end of the season...

 

surely there are foreigners out there who want to play in the Euro's and want to put themselves on show?

 

but i aint panicking...I'm sure we have something decent lined up.

It would have to be done very carefully.

 

As others have said though, what would a top striker have done on Saturday at newcastle - what's just as important is playing in a way that we create chances and potentially getting a playmaker in

right, for once

 

age is irrelevant

 

we need something for 4 months

Aye, Bayerns Lucas Podolski as discussed here -

Don't think it'll happen somehow

Bring back Fredi Bobic

How about payment for results? Score a goal, get a grand. Score a winning goal, get ten grand. That'd sort the men from the boys!

Performance related pay. Sounds good to me.

short term loan for top notch player is the order of the day, pay him good money massive bonus for winning goals and massive bonus if we stay up if it costs 5 million and we stayed up it would be cheap, just shows why the fook did we part with Anelka so cheaply.

They'd want more than that, when decent strikers earn over ?50k a week.

my thoughts exactly.

agree

 

as with on the other thread, Podolski is in such a position

 

main problem though is top notch strikers are generally playing regular enough not to need a move

..... so (relatively) cheaply and at entirely the wrong time.

Still need that centre-back, creative midfielder & striker.

8 days and counting.

If we sign a top striker we will stay up without buying a centre half or a creative midfielder, I think this situation now shows how wrong the board were to accept the bid for Anelka, we can now be held to ransom, and I can see us having to pay 10 million for a player who is half the player Anelka was.

Nah, we were near the bottom with Anelka and without a decent centre half & creative midfielder so how would simply getting a replacement up front change anything alone.

 

Taylor and Steinesson are decent steps but we need more...the best striker in the world wouldn't have scored with the service offered to them versus Derby at home and Newcastle away.

The reason we are near the bottom is Sammy lee (10 games 7 points relegation form 0.7 pts per game), since then the team have collected (14 points from 13 games 1.07 pts per game which should give us safety) add this 2 decent signings and a possible new striker we should have just enough to stay up.

 

p.s.we did score against derby and anyone other than JLS would have scored against toon.

I know we scored against Derby but it wasn't by our striker rendering us having one still having zero chances.

 

As for the JLS chance at newcastle, again it wasn't a striker with the chance so again it's irrelevant.

 

Anyway let's say they had fallen to strikers, creating one chance per game will not keep us up as our defence will not keep clean sheets every week.

 

I'm not saying we need a whole host of new faces, but unless we improve the way we play as a whole team, we could have Pele in his pomp and we still wouldn't be winning games

The reason we are near the bottom is because the players are wank

You've lost me now, what with all that coach-speak psycho-babble!

Sunderland and Fulham are both set to seal deals for new forwards today.

 

Sunderland are signing Rade Prica from AaB Aalborg for ?2M. He was top scorer in the Danish League in 2006-07.

 

Fulham have signed Eddie Johnson from Kansas City Wizards for ?2.5M, to add to the other 3 signings made in January.

 

 

I know nowt about these two lads and they may well be crap but with 7 days to go our relegation rivals are getting players in to fill the areas of their squads that we are desperate for.

and?

 

doesn't matter what other teams do

 

am led to believe we are trying to sign 4 more players, if we do, good, if we don't we carry on regardless

 

I haven't heard of either of those players either but from what I gather, I'd rather see Helguson back in the team than sign Rade Prica for ?2M

 

I'd rather put Braaten up front than sign Eddie Johnson for ?2.5M from a team who have Wizards in their name

I know nowt about these two lads and they may well be crap

 

That's the main point, we don't need more crap at those prices.

 

We have enough of that already. It is worrying but we will have to make the best of what we've got and get behind the team.

 

(Especially Nolan as he is going to have to start banging them in, so stop slagging him off -- to nolan bashers)

I predict a repeat of a few years ago when 3 stumps were signed at 23.58 on deadline day without FSA having even seen them play.

think not , all of them were willie mckay signings and i think him and sam were ""friends"" nudge nudge

if we get as lucky as we did with Laville I'll be happy

WHAT ABOUT BOB TAYLOR?
