    Was impressed with him for Newcastle before the Ba-Cisse show got going.

    Leon Best

    Yeah he'll give them what they missed when they got rid of Jason Roberts. But like the article says I think he could do a job with a bottom half prem side, maybe this bid will make one of clubs bid for him.

    Yes top player, not sure why they'd let him go? Bad boy perhaps?? No idea.

    Where have Blackburn found this money from, I thought they would be struggling moneywise? Perhaps these chicken farmers have a bit of money to spend. Either way if I were a player I'd be wary of signing for an unstable club like Blackburn, especially since they seem like they are keeping Kean!

    He did some boyracer **** in his 4x4 I think (no relation to an earlier thread) and I think is a bit of **** at times, but what footballer isn't?

    I thought reasonable at Prem level, probably very decent at Championship.

    But yeah, Ba & Cisse have knocked him right back.

    Leon Best is quality, would pretty much get into any Championship side. Can't think why he'd want to go to champ unless he wants to get some confidence or something in a promotion winning season. Either way I wouldn't chose blackburn, Kean isn't exactly the greatest manager in the world

    Definitely a threat should he sign for Blackburn. He's shown he is capable of scoring goals at this Level and higher.

    Leon Best wont be a Jason Roberts or Yakubu thats for sure. Very strange if it comes to pass though by both sides.

    Blackburn will be selling one or two soon with the likes of Danns and Olsson wanting out of the chicken coop.

    The Blackburn squad come August 18th will have a much changed look about it i would suggest from last seasons.

    Leon Best will be a very good striker in the championship! Hull's closer to Newcastle than Blackburn, come on Steve you know it makes sense!

    IF Middlesboro sell Marvin Emnes to Swansea then Best could well go there for £2m.

    I can think of others better suited. One name ive heard linked to City is crazy but the source is normally well connected. For now i keep my own council. Nobody on here would believe it anyway and i am still shocked to even think it possible. IF IT DOES HAPPEN THEN HANG ONTO YOUR SOCKS. For now they are secure on my feet.
