We are being linked with Wolves striker Sylvan Ebanks-Blake. With Chris Wood coming in I dont think we need another striker. Should Ebanks-Blake or another striker come in surely it would be the end of both Marko Futacs and Jamie Vardy. Crystal Palace and Hull have also been linked with him which I find more believable http://www.expressandstar.com/sport...sylvan-ebanks-blake-tipped-for-molineux-exit/
I think today's game has highlighted the chasm between our first choice strikers and the rest. If Nuge or Woody get injured, we could be in trouble. Perhaps we do need a third, quality striker and send out Vardy and one from Futas and Waggy on loan. The question is: will a quality striker want to come and sit on the bench?
I think Ebanks Blake would be happy to join a team sitting in 2nd spot challenging promotion rather than be at Wolves who are in freefall. Totally agree with you gangster that if Nugent or wood get injured it would be a big concern.
This I think we currently are relying on them staying fit for the rest of the season. Although Wood is a class acquisition, doing totally no other business may damage us. Sylvan Ebanks-Blake is scoring goals for a team that aren't doing that well, imagine how many more he could get here
If we need to sign anyone, we should try and go for Billy Sharpe. It's not like we really need him but it would really piss off the F••••• fans and that in itself is surely worth a punt, just saying
Southampton cant recall Sharp or sell him until the summer as there is no clause in his loan deal with Forest that allows that Also Sharp has said he wants to stay at Forest until the end of the season
Ebanks in & Futas out, get rid of Whitbread & get Chester in that´s making the squad stronger. In the summer we´ll see a few changes whether we go up or not. Not sure NP is looking for any more players this season tbh but if Ebanks is unhappy at WW then.....
You´re up early Proud. He´ll be a player that will strenthern the squad for the big promo push & don´t for get MK is only here til the end of the season... unless NP´s got something up his sleeve & is planning a deal with Manc Poo in the summer.
That's fine. He'll do for this season and we'll sign Chester in the summer, see if he can really cut it in the Prem.
Interesting that SAF said that Phil Jones and Smalling would be the central pairing for years to come. Michael Keane, were you listening to that? Blue suits you anyway!
I would have taken him a few years back but I'm afraid I just don't rate him anymore. Regarding our strikers, how many clubs can honestly say they have 3 or more top-quality strikers in their squad in this division? Cardiff are the only ones I can think of in Campbell, Maynard, Bellamy, Helguson etc. but a fair few are injured or injury-prone. Plus I don't see why people are suddenly writing off Waghorn, he's been quality so far this season. Also, hopefully Schlupp will come back more positive and look to cement a position. I'll worry when we need to, COME ON LEICESTER!
Ebanks-Blake is set to sign for Crystal Palace, he knows Holloway from their time at Plymouth. Useless Hollohead should of brought SEB with him to Leicester but he brought us Barry Hayles instead
