    According to this - Shane Long from Reading is available (again) - also Luciano Becchio from
    Norwich.

    Anyone reckon Long could do a job for us? Would he be interested? Are there any others out there that haven't been mentioned yet?

    So far I've heard mentioned:

    Cole
    Guidetti
    Best
    Adebayor
    Kane
    Long
    Becchio
    Defoe (yeah... I know!)

    Any others?

    I'd take a fully fit Shane Long to Loftus Road in a heartbeat.

    Shane Long is still with WBA, and was retained in their squad, so I don't think he is available.

    As history has shown, Clarke wouldn't give a McDonalds gift voucher to the undernourished.

    I thought the same, is the article just wrong about his situation/availability?

    Long's confidence is shot but I'd still have him, all day.

    In fact I'd take anyone right now.

    I'm surprised no-one has picked him up. Didn't do it for us, but surely he can get a game somewhere.

    Is Guidetti still at Citeh? Didnt he get about 30 goals in holland last season? Him and Long would do for me.

    No one has picked up bothroyd because of his wages, he was probably on 30k with us when in reality his value is under 10k a week and thats probably hard for his to accept.

    Thats not the only article we have been linked to him with. The link is definitely there and it seems he is available which makes me wonder who they have at WBA to push him out, very good player.

    They're not too badly off - at the moment they have:

    Anelka
    Anichebe
    Vydra
    Sessegnon

    If he is being shown the door, I wonder is it for wages, poor form or some other reason?

    Hadn't thought of Shane Long & be much happier to have than Cole/Best.

    I still think Conor Wickham is a possibility though not sure what will happen with De Canio now gone.
