Ford Super Sunday Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Free transfer Extra option to our already light attack Don't really see what we've got to lose here.
foxoffderby Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 I hate to be an anal tit, but Ferdinand only ever went on loan to Besiktas, and after over 150 games for QPR, moved to Newcastle for £6m. Your not a tit. The fact is he went to Turkish side and came back a stronger player. That was the point I was trying to make but point taken it was a loan. deal.
Wymsey Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Expected from Sven to have more of a better striker and younger than Vassell. Hope he is fit and ready for this league.
MikeyT Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Jason Roberts sounds great Robards can't say I've heard of him He was an actor. Very good one as well.
Guest shearfox Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Looks like he is set to sign according to the BBC. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/mobile/football/teams/l/leicester_city/9102641.stm
Guest Bilo Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 He isn't costing us anything and he could be a decent signing. Sven obviously sees something in him that I and a lot on here don't. If he's gash then we can get rid and move on. It's not like we're spunking £5 million on him a la Akinbiyi.

No guarentees, No rights, No bullshit.

Ford Super Sunday Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 This is true, but he is taking up a finite number of loanee slots. It's a BIG gamble. Apparently he doesn't have a club, as he's left the Turkish one he was at? So not a loan...

Apparently he doesn't have a club, as he's left the Turkish one he was at? So not a loan... Correct Ian, Vassell is a free agent. Released in the summer. It's about as risk-free as transfers get, so long as he isn't on silly money or a lengthy contract of course.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 My bad then - give him a rolling contract with a clause for a permanent one if certain targets are met by the end of the season.
CupidStunt Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 I've always quite like vassel, dont know why I was under the impression he always did quite well for England, albeit when coming on as a sub A gamble that aint going to cost the earth, so why not i say wonder if he will get a welcome like this and lmao
dobbylcfc Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Apparently to stringers Twitter he's having a medical now. Think he'll be a good signing for us tbh
AmyLGK Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Also according to Stringers tweet - he'll need 2 weeks for fitness and Dyer wont be playing at Leeds!
Stevosevic Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Good signing. I think he will get another striker in as well.
crazylegs1984 Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 From wat I've read and heard he having a medical and apparently signing a 1 year contract personally I'm quite happy with this
MrSpaM Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Well if this falls through a certain Wayne Rooney might be available soon Put your money where your mouth is Mr Top
crazylegs1984 Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 if Wayne Rooney signed I would have multiple jizz situations ( I know this would never happen ) but the thought

Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Looks like he'll soon be signing then.
The Doctor Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 good start but we're still very light up top.IIRC vassell was more of a pacey striker than a big man who would put their weight about and win the aerial battles so we need one of them as well, one who can tuck away a few. Not had a player like that since Ferdinand/Deane.
phillthefox Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 heard he having a medical this afternoon and should sign by close of play today on 6-12 month deal
Kent Posted 18 October 2010 Posted 18 October 2010 Vassell medical now. Should be signed v soon. Needs 2 wks for fitness. 'long list' of names from agents. Roberts is one. Dyer to miss Leeds - Stringer
