Are you being serious?

The only people happy to see him in leicester would be the casinos.

I wasn't to be fair, can't stand the horrible **** for the record. Crap effort at irony there mate, can't win em all, sorry :)

Ha ha no worries it's hard to know what's sarcasm and what's not over the internet.

Becchio would be a good player.

 

Strong, nasty when needed, and knows where the net is.

This is true, I don't know why :-(

It's 'coz we've got such crap midfielders.  The only way we'll get our strikers to bag a decent number of goals, is to sign a good, creative midfielder.  Drinkwater, King and James are just so one-dimensional (Hammond, even more so) - none of them can pick out a decent forward 20/30 yard pass to a striker (they only seem to be able to pass sideways).  That's the priority for the January window.

Spot on IMO.

There's one of the reasons why previously very good strikers seem to become somewhat pants when they don a blue shirt.

The supply is plentiful, but of poor quality.

Saying that, Nugent and Vardy have also missed some fookin sitters this season, as did Beckford when he was here.

Sylvan Ebanks-Blake        Seems to have gone to ipswich

  • Matty Fryatt     Loan deal praps
  • Nakhi Wells      Won't get on loan and not prem class
  • Dimitar Berbatov (yeah right)   lol
  • Lucciano Becchio     Loan
  • Matej Vydra          Loan
  • Connor Wickham    Loan

Mutch as I hate to say it think fryatt or Becchio if we could get him in.

Don't see Wells as an option could he hack this step up and what chance if we go up too big a gamble.

 

Plus NP said anyone coming in had to be prem quality.

i really don't see him taking a gamble (if it don't work it will cost him a new contract)

We seem to put so many balls in the box that a striker with an aerial threat wouldn't be a bad shout...perhaps Wickham would be that.

Only concern is a tall striker encourages long balls...

We don't need encouraging; as soon as we go one goal down it's a hoof to the incapable Nugent.

When was the last time he didn't score against us?

This weekend when we played Burnley ;-)

Whoooooosh

I voted for Vydra but of course he is on loan at WBA.

Out of the rest I'd take BECCHIO first then WICKHAM then fryatt

I THINK IN DRINKWATER WE HAVE ONE OF THE BEST PASSERS IN THE LEAGUE

 

PROBLEM IS THE LACK OF MOVEMENT IN FRONT OF HIM

 

THE STRIKERS MOVE, BUT IN THE WRONG PLACES IE IN THE SAME DIRECTION OR BEHIND THEIR MARKER SO THERES NO OPTIONS FOR HIM AND THE OTHER MIDFIELDERS

 

WE COULD DO WITH EITHER GETTING AN INTELLIGENT FORWARD, LIKE KEV PHILLIPS (BIT OLD TO PLAY WEEK IN WEEK OUT THOUGH) OR GET A DECENT RIGHT WINGER AND PLAY KNOCKAERT IN BEHIND ONE FORWARD AS HE'D SPLIT MOST TEAM OPEN WITH HIS MOVEMENT AND DISTRIBUTION

Any chance of Harry Kane returning.....

Fingers crossed!

He dont.........

I think that if we get out of the mentality of hoofing it up to wood, then he can deliver

 

He did in his first 6 or so games, but then we started to go route 1 and he was much less effective. Has a hell of shot on him if it opens up
