    Rumours flying around the usual places that we've had a £10m bid accepted for him

    To be serious, we may have had a bid accepted but I couldn't see him coming.

    Would be an incredible signing if true.. Can't see it myself but here's hoping.

    Him and connor leading the line would be powerful to say the least.

    he's a bit long in the tooth to be worth 10 mill imo. he is certainly a good player but we have had half arsed players before who only turn up when they feel like it and its not what we need. would much rather spend it on a younger player

    He's lazy, inconsistant and class now and agian. Why pay 10 millions when there's one of them going for free. Bendtner. I want neither.

    Not for me Nads. Likely to be wanting daft wages and not nearly as good as he thinks he is.

    His class was there for all to see, but he strays from position and does what he wants putting strain on the system, the bloke can be lethal in around the box but he's never there because he wanders off looking for the ball.

    If, and it's a big if, he would accept a reasonable wage, I honestly think Gus could get him playing and working as part of his system.

    He did drift away from position a lot, but in the main he was looking for the ball, we have the ball a lot more under Gus.

    We could offer him a year, we have the option to extend by 2 or similar, I think considering what's about it's a very decent player for nowt.

    Think he'll end up in Germany like.

    Well I'd much rather have Bendtner for free than Adebeyor for 10m like. I trust Gus to get the best out of anybody. But he really frustrated me when he was here, but different boss and different style I know.

    Yeah, he was frustrating, but when he was good he was very, very good. Happened about 3 times....

    i would rather we didnt have either to be fair. our fans deserve players who will run through walls for the shirt, and thats what we need. we have seen players who dont give 100% all the time in the past and they generally split the fans opions and end up as scapegoats. we need someone who is fully commited to the cause and willing to graft their arses off for us

    He'd be good for Connor, Just say to him this is Nic, talented player who had the world at his feet, unfortunately he was too busy talking the talk instead of working on walking the walk and as a result his career has gone backwards.

    Might keep Connor on the straight and narrow, of they'll just go out on the piss together, yeah scrap that they'd probably be as thick as thieves <laugh>

    If you think Bendtner was class, Ade is 3 levels up from that! No way we'd pay his wages so surprised if he'd take a cut. Price is a little high but worth a risk for me
