https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ch...wcastle-transfers-giroud-lampard-17515976.amp Yes or no? On the fence me, think he might be finished but still, better than what we have, which is a bag of ****e
I he better than what we have? Even totally washed up he's a damn sight better than Carroll and Joelinton. Plus if there's any hope for Joe it's to be protected by other strikers who are scoring and tutoring him. 100% yes from me.
Yep, so we still have nobody mobile with any quality up there Morelos would be good but that won't happen. No idea who we could get
Morelos is very important to rangers and their objectives, he's probably their most gifted player. I think they'd show a severe lack of ambition if they sold him in January. Giroud can do a job, he suits our style of play, he would do well.
Yep, always thought we would have made a move for him when were in the phase of signing any player that was French. We'll probably make a move for Solanke and his lethal goal:game ratio!!
Biggest rumour so far is Piatek who is likely available because 1) Milan have signed Ibrahimovic and 2) they desperately need cash after another awful season (so far). Hes £30m. If we do sign him, then it will prove beyond all doubt that we didn’t pay a FEE of £40m for Joelinton.
No problem at all with Giroud. Not a clinical striker but next to our current crop he would look like Lewandowski.
100%. The man starts for France! He's good in the air and on the ball, having a technical quality to bring Max and Almirion into the game
On the fence!? He's mint! I know he's not a trendy style CF which is why he doesn't start for Chelsea but he is a quality finisher.
"Frank Lampard has stated he will not stand in Olivier Giroud’s way if he wants to join Newcastle United on loan" Wants to join us? We wanted him before he went to Arsenal, and he publicly said he had no interest in joining us cos we're crap. But yeah if there's any chance of getting him we should go for it 100%, we've clearly been missing the Rondon style striker, andhe can nicely fill that role.
We would only be missing Rondon if we were playing Rafa's tactics - surely under Bruce's more attacking style we should be looking at different types of striker?
Read that he doesn't want to come as we aren't in Europe. Could have sworn the UK is still in Europe even if Brexit happens.....
