sdb Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 If they are an upgrade on what we have (or an alternative) then we should sign them. If Wags and Schlupp are better then obviously not. That's my point. Maynard is an upgrade but most other names mentioned are not. Trying Schlupp/Waghorn will not only yield as good/better results (as someone like Evans) but also save us money and having to unsettle/offload decent players. Just get the impression Sven would rather spend than give some of the players under his nose a proper go.
bald reynard Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 What is it that he said? accessory linked to it on the Yakubu thread on this Forum. Basically, Sven said that, "his workrate wasn't great" and "he wanted a striker who 'came from behind' (?!) and tried to score - Yakubu never did that, but wanted the ball delivered to him". drc summed it up by saying he felt that Yakubu wasn't an option for Sven.

""We want a player who can run deep behind the opponents' defenders and break through into the penalty area. We have at least two more players on their way i" Not sure that describes Billy.

That very much describes Sharp? His game is built upon exactly that?
Blanesta Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 This could be a tactic by Sven, hold the clearly stated last bid back, see what happens with maynards contract situation, if he doesn't sign it bid while BC are contemplating the player running his contract down, I'm sure 5mill+ will look a lot more attractive to BC. I could be way out though.

His game is built upon exactly that? I'm no Sharp expert, but I always had him down as a Johnny on the spot rather than a pacy striker.
The Don Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 The longer we wait with NM not signing the contract the cheaper he'll be. End of august and he's not signed a new contract we could probably get him for £4m
Guest Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 We could contemplate Cameron Jerome (if he doesn't end up at Stoke or somewhere)? edit: this is a question not insider knowledge!
hackneyfox Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 Now on Sky that we're no longer interested. Same quote again though. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12876_7034825,00.html

Carlos9 Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 Well, thats that then. Time to look elsewhere. If £4.75million is "nowhere near enough" then i don't know what is!

Same quote again though. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12876_7034825,00.html no one think this may be a bit of a media spin to force maynards hand? if he has had his head turned (big if), then now surely he'll know he'll now need to hand in a transfer request? probably clutching at straws, but you never know! edit: i was clutching at straws!
Liamlcfc1 Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 Also just been told the Maynard deal is off 100% they want too much money
Carlos9 Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 Also just been told the Maynard deal is off 100% they want too much money the only way this will be back on is if he hands in a transfer request. If he leaves it too long then its his loss, we will have a striker soon! Can't wait for Leicester vs Bristol match next season!
John Matrix Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 good to hear. let's close this cluster**** of a thread and cameron jerome is shit
Guest Mee-9 Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 Laugh if Forest come in with a 10 million pound bid.
Phil Gee's Mullet Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 160 pages for this! I'll never get that time back!
Liamlcfc1 Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 Just Been told it may be back on getting mixed messages here sorry guy will clear it up and let you know.
ROB-THE-BLUE Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 Just hope that Ched Evans aint the next name on the list!
RyanB89 Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 Just hope that Ched Evans aint the next name on the list! This!!!!!!!!!!!
