    listening to the LJ and LT YouTube interview.
    I got the vibes LT maybe here next season.
    subject to us being in the championship
    This would be a cracking signing.
    Bet he wants assurances reference reinforements arriving.
    We looked lost today.
    Two strikers and a top midfield general required priority number one.

    RR funny that, i did a double when he said in his interview, WE need to get points to stay in this league so WE can push on next!!!!, perhaps we are being a little bias in our interpretation eh?

    Hope we keep the guy, think he's a quality player and will be amazed if we keep him

    Bournemouth fans I know say he lacks the pace to play in the Premier League - so maybe he is available

    What like Teddy Sheringham and Berbabtov, Heskey, Peter Crouch...

    Every side needs a bit of football quality too. he brings much more than pace to us, he is, like the players above, a link who can also get a goal.

    Not saying he's a bad player (though not in the same league as Sheringham and Berbatov who are the real comparisons from your list)
    As you say every side needs a balance and I would be more than happy for us to get him

    The game is becoming more physical, taller players, faster players, more athletic players and stronger players. As a result skilful players with less physicality don't make ig right at the top.

    Good example, whilst Lionel Messi has a lot of skill, he also has a reasonable amount of stamina and pace, allowing his skills to be put to use against some of the best defenders in the world.

    So you have contradicted your own statement then.

    BTW he doesn't have any pace!

    He isn't rapid but he's not slow,

    I never contradicted myself, I simply said that some form of physical trait is often needed to make it, even if you had skill.
