If we get Sharp it will certainly be a coup - if we want him! For sure his possible transfer is already becoming a saga. I don't know why but I have a gut feeling Nick has got some unexpected names on his radar which are not on any of the posters on here - a few surprises?
Whilst at Middlesboro on Monday , I was told (rumour) that Sharp had already had a medical at Hull and it was a case of waiting for the transfer window to open. He does not want to relocate with his family and Hull is in a good position for him. Time will tell.....could be a load of bollocks?
oh i bet this news will go down like a lead balloon with the fulham fans, especially if they lose the likes of Zamora and Johnson in Jan, which is well talked about now. Has Martin Jol lost the plot ?
I think the most salient part of that article is where it questions whether Sharp is the type of player we need. He is ready for a move, it would seem but can he play alone in a 4-2-3-1?
If I were a Lesteristan fan I would doubt any newspaper report that can't even spell players names correctly.
Top post ^^^^^^ this. The other Major factor in all this will be IF Billy Sharp really does want to come to Hull City. IF he does then the deal will be a simple one and it wont matter what other clubs bid for him. Life has just shown him that money is not everything in this world despite what many (even on here) still think. Interesting times ahead in Jan.
That's why I highlighted that sentence, Strov. But how does he play for Donny - is it as a lone striker?
so what ? whoever gets Billy Sharp i dont think it will be boring negative Nige ? just saying like......
Has anyone stopped to think (in the unlikely event that we did get Sharp) that perhaps we would play this: Gulacsi Rosenior Chester Hobbs Dawson/Dudgeon Evans McKenna Stewart Koren Fryatt Sharp subs: Daws/Dudgeon,McLean, Olofinjana, McShane, Brady ??? Fryatt's a clever player and works really hard for the team and has put in some intelligent balls into the box (as well as gettign in the right positions). Is it possible?
maybe trying to lay down a marker with a top signing (money wise) but yes you make a valid point. imo, Beckford is a far more talented player than sharp but NP cannot handle egoes can he ? no surprise that Beckford can leave in Jan ? so who will rush to pay the price for him ? IF we get Sharp, i would expect him to debut in the FA Cup game (which would put a few more on the gate) and see how he goes. January is gonna be a fun time for sure.
like your thinking and yes its very possible. it also shows up well the strength that the squad would have and the options from the bench when needed. january and february are always a heavy slog so all the players would get games and rotattion to keep freshness is key. One thing though, Interesting that you find no place for Garcia on the bench or a back up GK ? so imo, i think McShane would be a big doubt one way or another.
They want him to play alongside David Newgent apparently. Still can't see this happening, but I'll obviously be more than happy if I'm wrong.
