    Welbeck is the modern day Heskey. Very good footballer and has a lot strengths. Just can't hit a barn door with a banjo and is made a scapegoat for it

    I'm not sure coming to City from ManU (or Spurs) does anything except hurt your England chances. If it was any other way then Curtis would have been at the world cup.

    Since when was Heskey a very good footballer?

    IF MASSIVE IF this does happen (even on loan) then Steve Bruce should be given the keys to the City.

    No wonder many pundits now have Hull City as a top 10 team this season.

    Never say never. That is what many on here said about Huddlestone and Livermore last summer.

    More likely to be a loan John,, if it happens at all.

    He is not key to winning at Qpr. We can cover the loss of Long. You were obviously not @ Stutggart then. ?
    Jelavic and Ince up top for me now on saturday.

    As someone else said lets have a bogof deal for the pair. <whistle>


    West Ham dont have that sort of money to buy Welbeck.

    Sorry I've missed all the carry on , I'm on hols in the Channel Islands and internet on the island is sparce to say the least . Is remy still available ? Also haven't read back all the pages but didn't Bruce take welbeck to Sunderland on loan. So maybe he will still have the persuasive powers that managed to get him their. A great signing if it happens.

    So it was pure coincidence England had a better goals to game ratio and win percentage when he played. Look what Heskey did for Michael Owen's career

    I didn't say Heskey was deplete of several attributes beneficial on a football field.


    However very few people would describe him as a very good footballer.



    Perhaps you. And his Gran.

    Still 19th top scorer in premier league history with 110 goals

    Heskey get alot of unfair stick just like Welbeck gets purely because they didnt score enough goals and was extremely wasteful in front of goal

    Both need to be alot more aggressive in their play

    A friendly is no way indicative of a proper competitive contest with League points at stake. Stick to snooker.

    Good point. Would be one of our best ever signing if we got him, seen a lot of laughable comments about Welbeck online but the lad is a top, top player, far better than Long

    Has anyone like Burnsy commented yet on Welbeck? Or is all this still based off that Mirror article?

    9 goals in 25 Premier League games last season, ten of them from the bench and many of them while being forced to play out wide, would suggest otherwise.

    Welbeck plays at the highest level for Man U in all kinds of positions so no wonder his goal ratio suffers, his work-rate is phenomenal and some of his finishing is exquisite, I hope he does get more aggressive one day, with his fists on Proud Fox maybe
