Iaquinta is a fine footballer and what we need upfront, an arial threat with a good eye for goal.. Sadly he's a bit old at 29.. maybe a 26 year old equivalent?
[/quote]

I'm pretty much in the same place - taking the original premise of footballers who you could reasonably expect to get, and then matching this with our needs, and players who could potentially make a big impact Iaquinta works.

4th choice Juve striker to 2nd in the pecking order at Anfield, providing us with a good backup option to Torres and an aerial threat.

Grjt, you seem to think that interpolating a player's name with the word "fucking" makes your point valid. Let's see if you can deride "Cameron-fucking-Jerome" and Andy-fucking-Carroll" based on their abilities rather than very cunning word play.

Hahaha! And you were accusing me of being dull?....lots of posts, no content, and youre still humping my leg. Anything to add?

Dull-Dull-Dull-Dull.

Ok, I'll try it in grjt-stylee...................You are D-fucking-ull.
[/quote]

Genuinely, why bother?
 
There seems to be a lot of needless sniping in here lads, can we try and keep it on topic. We know khl likes bendtner and we know grjt likes iaquinta and lets leave it at that.

Rodallega would be a good cheap punt, I still think vladimir weiss would have been a good buy.

I still want dzeko though
 
Go Fabio!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I'm staggered at some of the mediocre suggestions in this thread.

This thread is about naming three attacking players that would make a dream trio of signing for out club this winter. Yet we have distinctly average players listed in here.

It's like saying "Peugeot 206 is my dream car, because that is all i can afford.. " it doesn't make any sense.

Andy Carroll is the new Duncan Ferguson. On and off the field.
[/quote]

Good analogy. I did like Big Dunc tho, he could have done a job for us.

The on the field bit, not twatting people bit.

hahaha, good post - there are loads on here who've completely missed point. my original suggestion of milito, robben, and hazard looks more incredibly superb by the post.

Oh I don't know, there's some merit in making a dream list with some semblance of possibility 8)
[/quote]

Abso-fucking-lutely.

My original post featured 3 players who might all become available.

Bale plays for Spurs who will never be a top European team and will leave within the next 2 years.He will probably end up at United but if NESV get the cheque book out and we get a competent, respected manager who knows...............

Carroll is apparently being lined up by Chelsea but if Newcastle get into relegation trouble he will go to the first team bidding £15m+.

Adam Johnson is an England international, so is Milner, and Silva is a top Spanish international. None of them will play second fiddle for long and if Johnson is kept on the periphery for long he will demand a move (player-power bollix etc).

Realistically we won't get any of 'em but we have a chance of all of them (maybe not imminently) and in my dream scenario we get all of them.

Apologies to gr-fucking-jt for my earlier petulant remarks and can I commend Fabio for his intervention - it certainly made me take a good hard look at myself.

Squig, how mant times do I have to point out that I don't believe any of these signings will happen but I didn't believe we'd sign Pennant, Zenden & Poulsen when they were first touted and it happened so I'm just hoping that eventually we get some karmic justice.

We're getting Brunt & Carlton Cole aren't we? Fuck Karma!

Av I'm pissed and liable to put my fist through yer screen any minute! I'M NOT SAYING THEY'RE POSSIBILITIES, I'M SAYING THEY'RE POTENTIAL TARGETS FOR TOP TEAMS (Sorry I'll stop shouting) and that we should belooking at these type of players. Also they fit into the original premise of the thread which was "you have £75m to spend go and get the new Barnes, Beardsley & Aldo".

I'm also saying we WILL sign Carlton Cole and Brunt because we're destitute and broke👎 and won't win the league until there's peace in the middle-east.

possibly not, but if these uefa regs do stand up then it's going to be one hell of a fire sale at city. they're going to have to sell about 10 players, almost certainly at big reductions.

I thought your view was that they were realistic possibilities.

Relax,Dancing BVrave... have some hay ;D
 
Hay my arse, I'm sticking to the malted Barley.

I tend to shy away from the football forum these days Av so I've been a bit reckless on this thread.

Truth is I've fallen out of love with top level football and rarely watch any EPL unless it's Liverpool. I still love football but these days much prefer watching Crewe, Burton Albion or Derby County rather than Man Utd v Chelsea.

Why don't you take the missus down to Carrow Road for a game? Go on a tuesday night when there's Champions League football on telly - it's liberating to watch Norwich v Scunthorpe on a cold, damp tuesday night whilst Chelsea are playing Real Madrid on TV. Eschew the home comforts for a REAL taste of english league football! You'll never look back.

I SAID, there's no fucking way Spurs would sell Bale to us.


[/quote]

Oops, didn't see you down there, sorry.

Bale, right, so ok, he's gonna have to leave Spuds at some stage to further his career. Realistically it will be to the Scum but - and here's the funny thing - they're broker than us! IF the Scum can't afford him and IF he wants to stay in this country and IF City & Arsenal are happy with Ashavin & Silva and if IFR NESV come up with £30m then maybe they'll sell him to us - we're just just 4 IF's and a MAYBE away from signing Bale.

I plan to, but I'm not sure if I should show my face around there so soon.

I made the mistake of walking near Carrow Road some weeks ago (I'm about 20 mins walk from there) passing a stream of Canaries supporters agfer a game all clad in their sickening yellow shiirts whilst I was clad in our shirt.

Wasnt a good idea as I attracted many looks.
 
Good thing they werent playing us, but I'm still hopeful we get Norwich in the FA Cup.

(I'm still pissed off about NOrthampton,mind)

2 seasons ago when Burnley were striving for promotion to the EPL I went with my my 2 Burnley mates (weirdly one is a 47 year old jewish guy and the other is a gorgeous 24 year old Muzzie) to see Burnley beat Norwich 1-0 (or maybe 2-0).

Two reasons for this recollection - one, because the same night United played a CL quarter final against someone big (dunno Milan, Juve, Bayern etc) and it was great being amongst the 9,000 crowd on a tuesday night, enjoying dodgy steak & kidney pies and cans of carling at half time and not giving a fuck how the csum were doing.

Secondly, I have so much respect for the 6 coaches of Norwich fans as they left Turf Moor at 9:45pm for a 6 hour drive back to Norwich mid-week to support their team (who were in relegation trouble).

Thirdly, When I went to watch Burnley the following season with my mates Mo & Zahina in the Premier League, suddenly there were 25,000 people there! Not only that but when they were 1-0 down AGAINST ARSENAL, they started booing (not Mo & Zahina, the others). Funny, when they were a succesful championship team beating nrowich in front of 9,000 hardcore fans everything was cool but they had the temerity to get promtoed and be a goal down to arsenal they got booed.

I'm guessing it was the 16,000 blow-in's that were booing - I hate the Premier League.

I have to go to bed soon.
 
Oh, Norwich fans are mental, there's no doubt about that.

You do see some smattering of support for other teams, but I'd say about 90% of the fans here are die-hard Canaries.

The shirt's the bumper-stickers, the works.

You'd go to almost any shop in NOrwich and you'd here the match on commentary on game day.

It's actually very heartening because strangely enough, I'm totally insulated in Norwich.

Back home in Malaysia, the legions of morons calling themselves 'Mancs' would have really put the boot in this season.

In Norwich, nobody cares.

The only way for me to get any Manc abuse is to go on Facebook.
 
Norwich fans are cunts.

'NHS' The Norwich hit squad, every football fan under the age of 30 seems to be involved with these cunts
 
I did say they're mental 8)

Anyway, I've stopped wearing our shirts in public.

I'm not sure if I'd get in any trouble, but I'd rather not find out :-\
