currently scoring goals for fun. we could do much worse and his cash-strapped club might be prepared to let him go for a reasonsable sum.
I've always said we need to gamble on cheap, lower League strikers because then if they don't score, they haven't cost us much. Southampton, Norwich and Reading did it with Lambert, Holt and Le Fondre respectively. If it works, it's a masterstroke, if it doesn't, they've only come on the cheap. Someone I've noticed, Nakhi Wells at Bradford has scored 22 in 50 odd games and is only 22 Years Old. 15 goals this Season too. He would be worth a punt IMO.
Doubt he'd be that cheap... my mate from Bradford said Middlesbrough wanted him in the summer but ended up signing a new 3 year deal. Good shout though, liked the look of him
January is the last chance to sign up for a push for the BPL. We don't want speculative buys that might not cost much as a failure would cost £millions.
I got some colleg kid in America who is a quarterback at some college & also some guy who is a football coach here. No football players came up.
Sign a proven goalscorer and a lower League talent? That way you get 2 strikers we need to get rid of Mclean too!
Take a look at Amber's post. Some work, some don't. Look at Le Fondre and Lambert... Some fail such as McLean. Although McLean did cost us £1 million so he wasn't a cheap fail, but if you can nick someone for cheap and gamble, it could pay off. Burnley did it with Charlie Austin, now look at him.
Google search is this. https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=d...25884,d.d2k&fp=9b851182162a96a2&bpcl=39967673 So unless someone can come up with an answer this thread is just another thread about how we need a striker.
Sign a proven goalscorer and a lower League gamble? People say we need 2 strikers. Although it determines whatever happens with signing the loans peremanently...
What, like we did with Fryatt and McLean ?..... Never mind, I kind of agree, but think it might be just as well to sign just the proven side as we have people like Simpson who can make up the numbers, if money is an issue.
