Guest Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 You won't see that again until Easter, it's his MO to go missing between mid September and mid/late March. Do you ever cheer the fcuk up?
marbelladave Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 He always struck me as an honest hard working player who was never quite good enough to play at the highest level, despite selection for England and runs with several decent premiership teams. He's 30 years old, experienced and has a great work ethic, could really do well for us at our level. But then that could just be me looking on the bright side....
h1210 Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 IanStringerBBC Ian StringerMore Vassell news - its my understanding Darius Vassell WILL sign a permanent contract with Leicester City in the coming days, 1/2 year EDIT - UGGH Too slow
HonradaRaposa Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Do you ever cheer the fcuk up? Call it as I see it, and I live a very happy life thanks for caring

SMX11 Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Hmm I'll give him some time because he was a top prem striker in the not to distant past. I think Sven will get 1-2 young loanees in as well.
StanSP Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 It gives us more options on the attacking front, which can only be good right now. Might make the other strikers buck up their ideas too! I thought he was older than 30. Nevertheless, I will be willing him on to bag plenty of goals
mancunianfox Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Interesting article... http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2010/jan/06/footballer-darius-vassell-turkey-blog
fox123 Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 at some of those lot scoffing off Darius Vassell. We're in the Championship not the Champions League. He will do a job in the Championship!
Houdini Logic Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Whats the point in getting a really unfit striker to play in our really unfit team? The only person that'll benefit from this is Darius Vassell. You realise Davies hadn't played for 14 months before our game at the weekend?
Father Ted Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 This will be a cracking signing. Just what we need, some more pace upfront.
Dr The Singh Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 This will be a cracking signing. Just what we need, some more pace upfront. Mmmmmmmm, before the currnt signings, I would have said this would be a great signing. My expectations have now gone through the roof, and i'm still waiting for Santa Cruz, and Shaun Right Philips!!
David Guiza Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 I seen Curtis Davies play against Rapid Vienna in the europa league so the above poster is wrong. Still very short of match practise but not that short.
Babylon Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 I seen Curtis Davies play against Rapid Vienna in the europa league so the above poster is wrong. Still very short of match practise but not that short. Yeah massive difference between one game in 14 months and none.
Uncle Monty Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 What's everyone moaning about? Jesus christ, Beckham he aint, but he's as good as what we've already got. I'd be glad if we got him, hasn't everybody been banging on about getting in a new striker? Problem solved as far as I'm concerned.

He's not the answer

To be fair none of our other strikers have played 22 times for england.
Bettsj2 Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Has skill and pace and has scored goals at the highest level. Not sure why people think this would be a bad signing. He's better than Fryatt, Howard and Gallagher as a striking option or a wide man in the absence of Dyer. Good signing.
Tilley Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Not a bad signing for the Championship at all. Now next HAS to be a winger.
Howard9 Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 We're telling people to give him a chance and he's not even started at the club yet :L I think this will be a great signing as we know vassell can play as a striker or a winger tbh we already have good wingers in Dyer and Moussa ( who can play as a winger as we saw against hull) So i think IF this is true then vassell will replace howard upfront and hopefully will get us goals (y) Welcome To Leicester Darius
Bluefoxtim Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 What you on about, he hasn't scored 20+ goals in League One. He's not the answer League One?
HonradaRaposa Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 League One? I'm having a childish underhand dig at those who rave about a 20+ goal League One striker in our ranks, but scoff at a player who has never played below the top flight and is only 30 and has played in major championships. That player is also going to cost fook all, and happens to respect our manager.
AmyLGK Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Given how good Sven appears to be at bringing in players (yes ok granted I'm only basing this on Davies and Noughton - but WOW weren't they good), and his comments about the squad being unfit, I doubt he'll bring anyone in not up to the standard he expects.
