    Anyone?

    6ft 4... i think, good header of the ball, decent finisher. Would be good to have on a loan.

    His wages would be massive, but if we could get him then yes.

    Injury prone. Better option than Shola though.

    Hmmmm... maybe if we paid a small amount of wages?

    £10k per week and a £20k appearance fee? I think something like that would work out best seen as though he is quite injury prone (note: he may need more than £10k per week)

    We've payed Xisco a fortune for 9 games in 3 years. I think we could afford to pay him 20k wages plus 10k appearance fee and 10k per goal bonus <ok>

    £10k a week is harsh. Maybe flip it over so basic wage of £20k. He was good a couple of years back, but moving to Citeh ruined him and he went back to Blackburn on loan last january and still didnt impress (9 appearances 0 goals). :confused:

    He's only 29, should be in his prime. Not sure about the lad. He's a conundrum.

    Can't believe you suggested this and can't believe people haven't shot you down for this. What did he do for Blackburn when on loan?

    Why? He's only ever been prolific in one season for Blackburn, the rest of his career he's only ever achieved double figures once. Add to that his age, which means he's past his best. Ridiculous suggestion.

    1) Because he's Tash. He loves making articles.
    2) Because he's better than Ameobi. But like you said, he did nothing in his 9 games for Blackburn when really he had a chance to put himself in the transfer window as a target for many clubs.

    As with all deals of players from the 'bigger' clubs, wages is the issue.
