Bendtners move to Sunderland seems to be working very well. He is working his socks off for the team. Running himself into the ground for the cause, so why did you not like him? Do you think he would be allowed to make to make the move permanent over the New Year window. If so how much would you expect?
he is still only 22 i think and therefore has potential, while also playing really well for denmark, so his price should def be above 10mil in the current market. if we take carroll at 35mil as the norm, then bendy is easily equal to that, but that was just stupid by queen kenny
I'd keep him but i don't know if he would stay with us without much gametime, him and park would kill the cups!
But remember that we have taken in more than we have spent in the last five years. I think we are in profit by about £15M so all of this talk about big spenders has to be put into context.
We dont want him becuase he isnt good enough - for a team like yourselves he is more or less perfect. Just lacks the quality to produce when it matters i.e vs Barca where he finnaly proved to me (and i was someone who always said he had potential) that he was never going to be good enough to score and infleunce games enough for a side that is up there with the best in the world. Although saying that he is better than Chamakh...can you buy him for 12mil instead??
i actually rate him as a player much more than chamakh. he can hold up play better and is better at making runs and also heading. he just needs to work on his finishing and ball control and he'll be a top striker, cause he is 6'5 or so. i would keep him next season and if we stay with our 4231 formation then actually play him in his favoured central role and he'll be a beast, cos then we can, if needed, go long ball
I would love to keep him, I've been saying all along he is better than park, his goal scori was like 1 in 2.5 or something for us, while getting played out of position and mainly as a sub, not bad ey?
To be honest I doubt he will be at either of our clubs by next season. Will probably be in a champions league club in a poorer quality league, somewhere like Benfica.
ah. but the contract says he has to score goals and not miss open-goals - that will be a BIG problem for Nicklas.
Errm. He has played 4 games, scored twice and has 3 assists? Been MotM at least once and to be fair, looks a quality player. We have played him at Centre Forward mind and not a winger - which he will never be. He is far better than Chamak but not as good as RVP, however, i cant see why both RVP and Bendtner cant play together? Great combination but i'm chuffed he isnt. I'd quite happily give you 10m - 12m right now for him. We paid 13m for Gyan and he scored 11 goals all season. NB has 2 in 4 games already and I'd like to see him play in the game at our place in February.
