Number 6 Posted 11 July 2015 Posted 11 July 2015 Austin fits Palace best surely? If they stump up the funds, they'll get him. They'll be in great shape for this season then too. Cabeye already in and a great signing, plus full season under Pardew.
CosbehFox Posted 11 July 2015 Posted 11 July 2015 It's a rehash of a story from last year where Parish said Ulloa was considered under Holloway but they surprised he started the season so well with us. Palace are after a striker and that's been used as the link.

Cabeye already in and a great signing, plus full season under Pardew. Thought Newcastle would be his best option but they're after Mitrovic instead first. I'd put money on West Ham taking Austin tbh.
Guest LCFC_World Posted 11 July 2015 Posted 11 July 2015 He'd probably increase our chances of getting Cambiasso to stay and we're probably the last team out of all those after Austin that he'd choose to join. This. You could tell last season that there was a friendship there that grew overtime.
gurru991 Posted 11 July 2015 Posted 11 July 2015 It's not about having two strikers, we need two players at least for every position. Selling Ulloa to pay for Austin shouldn't be the plan. Having quality players able to come off the bench is vital for PL success.
Jordan Posted 11 July 2015 Posted 11 July 2015 We They (The owners) would be stupid to sack our best manager in years but it happened.I could suggest Nigel Pearson would be stupid to take the best job he's ever had and throw it away, but that would be as much of a non sequitur as your post.
Jonezy Posted 11 July 2015 Posted 11 July 2015 No no no he is Esteban's best friend.... Also I love his bullet headers....
RedSoxUK Posted 11 July 2015 Posted 11 July 2015 No no no he is Esteban's best friend.... Also I love his bullet headers.... Was the one player Pearson really, really insisted we bring in.

wigstonboues Posted 12 July 2015 Posted 12 July 2015 Hes slow. Can barely control a ball. And just looks shattered after 40 minutes. I really don't rate him. Never have never will
65RosesFox Posted 12 July 2015 Posted 12 July 2015 Hes slow. Can barely control a ball. And just looks shattered after 40 minutes. I really don't rate him. Never have never will If you've never rated our top goalscorer last season that scored more than double any of our other strikers. I dread to think how badly you rate the others.....
NewquayFox Posted 12 July 2015 Posted 12 July 2015 Proper 'Old School' centre forward, not many about so please keep him...... Up the City....
BoyJones Posted 12 July 2015 Posted 12 July 2015 Need to keep him. Maybe not the best first touch, but can't take away the fact top goal scoring and will continue to improve. Also don't underestimate the work he does defending corners. Unless the new manager freezes him out, I can see Ulloa having a better year now that he has one years experience of top level football under his belt.
Steven Posted 12 July 2015 Posted 12 July 2015 I could suggest Nigel Pearson would be stupid to take the best job he's ever had and throw it away, but that would be as much of a non sequitur as your post. A fair point, often overlooked.
katieakita Posted 12 July 2015 Posted 12 July 2015 Proper 'Old School' centre forward, not many about so please keep him...... Up the City.... Old school like Austin, rate Ulloa but rate Austin more, would ideally want both though.
NewquayFox Posted 12 July 2015 Posted 12 July 2015 Greedy bugger, Okazaki, Vardy & Kramaric in a front 5 for me......

sdb Posted 12 July 2015 Posted 12 July 2015 Must watch a different player. I've seen some class first touches from the man. Top scorer in his first season in the prem and people don't rate him. Mental.
ScouseFox Posted 12 July 2015 Posted 12 July 2015 Must watch a different player. I've seen some class first touches from the man. Top scorer in his first season in the prem and people don't rate him. Mental. the november/december period when he was not in form some of his first touches from goal kicks were ending up closer to our goal than him, but i agree, his touch on the whole is often very nice. the start and end of season runs he was showing great control, great hold up play and laying the ball of nicely to whoever wanted it. if he can keep up the level of august-october and swansea onwards then i don't care who we sign, he'll be playing. probably gonna have problems if his form drops though seen as we've got about 8000 strikers.
Guest Col city fan Posted 12 July 2015 Posted 12 July 2015 I have a horrible feeling that Ulloa was another player who looked better and played better for Pearson. Of many of the players we have at the club, I wonder whether Ulloa might suffer the most now Nige has gone. Together with Vardy and Morgan I suspect. Just a thought.
Fox92 Posted 12 July 2015 Posted 12 July 2015 I could suggest Nigel Pearson would be stupid to take the best job he's ever had and throw it away, but that would be as much of a non sequitur as your post. Different view but I guess there's a flip side of everything. How did he throw it away? Because of the "incidents" he was involved in?

There was also the February and March period in which all he did was foul people. He completely killed us at Arsenal by ending every attack in the last 10 minutes with a foul. Pearson obviously really trusted him though; I think he played a part in all bar one league game which when you consider that he only scored twice in the league between September and April goes to show the value NP saw in him away from the goals.
