daddylonglegs Posted 21 July 2015 Posted 21 July 2015 I commented on it some time ago. He was fat and unfit as we know all QPR players were. But if he can score 18 goals as a fat bastard, maybe with our fitness regime he could do better. ( What would be a worry though is that he could be a lazy bastard and a fat bastard.) I do quite like Ulloa as well though. I just dont think he can be labelled as a 'fat bastard' even for a professional footballer. Andy Reid is a fat bastard. Charlie Austin is just colossal, if he was a fat bastard he wouldn't have given most central defenders he came up against such a hard game
TOMBlcfc Posted 21 July 2015 Posted 21 July 2015 think he might go Villa myself.If I was him I would, pretty much guaranteed a first team place if Benteke leaves
Steve Earle Posted 21 July 2015 Posted 21 July 2015 If we're adding "two, maximum three" players to the squad, he won't be one of them. We need two CMs and a CB. File under 'nice to have'...

Heymister2015 Posted 21 July 2015 Posted 21 July 2015 2 to 3 signings in my mind was along with cambiasso! Thinking a cb,cm and a goalscorer if one became available. Van Dijk, Mendy and Austin would be perfect. Austin would fit into the characters we have here already.

Could do with a right back as well, Simpson can fvck off and De Laet is too error prone. We won't necessarily play with 4 at the back but we should have the option.
NewquayFox Posted 21 July 2015 Posted 21 July 2015 No club have offered the £15 million asking price and Newcastle have offered the most, can't see them going for him after splashing out today.... Up the City.....
Lesteban Posted 21 July 2015 Posted 21 July 2015 Palace sign Bamford, Newcastle sign Mitrovic. The list of potential clubs with striker shortages in for him is shrinking.
Brizzle Fox Posted 21 July 2015 Posted 21 July 2015 When I had a little look on paddy power last night he was 250 / 1 to come here. He'll end up at villa
v6rat Posted 21 July 2015 Posted 21 July 2015 Says he doesn't want to leave London, so if they're serious, Palace look favourites
dayday Posted 21 July 2015 Posted 21 July 2015 Says he doesn't want to leave London, so if they're serious, Palace look favourites We could tell him we play near Leicester Square
breadandcheesebrother Posted 21 July 2015 Posted 21 July 2015 Think Chelsea is likely even if they retain Remy

davelcfc100 Posted 21 July 2015 Posted 21 July 2015 When I had a little look on paddy power last night he was 250 / 1 to come here. He'll end up at villa33/1 now on some sites
FrankieADZ Posted 22 July 2015 Posted 22 July 2015 If I was him I would, pretty much guaranteed a first team place if Benteke leaves thats my thought too, Villa would pay the 15 mil QPR want(given they are getting 32 for Bentekkers) & as you said he'd be a definite starter there.
BirminghamFox Posted 22 July 2015 Posted 22 July 2015 If he goes to Villa..... Relegated twice in consecutive seasons
Bluearmyfox28 Posted 22 July 2015 Posted 22 July 2015 Get him in! If we can create 3 quarters of the amount of chances we created last season then I'm sure Austin would score 20 goals in a season if he plays regularly. Get him in!

QPR created more chances than us last season. http://www.squawka.com/comparison-matrix#premier_league/2014/2015/leicester_city/126/126/315/0/t|premier_league/2014/2015/queens_park_rangers/2/126/41/0/t#total_forward_passes/key_passes/chances_created/total_shots#total
Wymsey Posted 22 July 2015 Posted 22 July 2015 I don't believe he's better than our current crop, and hence would be a slight risk considering his past knee niggles.
Wilson_6 Posted 22 July 2015 Posted 22 July 2015 I think money could be spent better else where. I'm happy with the strikers we have.

They didn't create more chances than us - they had more shots - there's a big difference.
