panic buying in jan saw us purchasing carroll for 35m. if we can get away with getting no one and then saving our money for the summer, we'll be better off.

I prefer to think of it as 20 million for Enrique and 21 Million for Carrol.

We where still robbed, but not as badly.

Robert Lewandowski and Mario Götze.
[/quote]I see we were linked with him a few days ago, Chelsea too.
How good is he?
His stats are pretty impressive and he was compared to a Torres style player earlier in his career.
A player with an eye for goal is pretty much exactly what we need right now.

We could probably just about get him and Gotze for the £30m too

I think he's very good. A modern type of striker who could also easily play in the hole or on either wing.

He's playing as a lone striker at the moment at Dortmund.

I did. And I think I've already entered.

I'm busy fighting for promotion now so I didn't pay too much attention to the cup competition.
 
We should sign a bit of attacking magic in the team.... we should have signed it in the summer but people were too busy saying that it was all money well spent ( and yes this is a Downing i told you fucking so comment... it had fucking bad signing writ large all over it...Henderson... oh dear god.... Carroll.... fuck me Kennys gone he is soooo gone)

Christ know's who we can get if we can get anyone at all and whats more if Kenny doesnt start getting em playing better than that he will not be the one spending it... and thats not me saying lets sack Kenny thats me pointing out the fact that we cant beat fucking Swansea at home its pure fucking Roy its just ROY...... having spent a FORTUNE to be just as shit as that.... At least Roy had the handicap of being skint.

Poulsen was shit but at least he was reasonably cheap shit...

Im still fucking fuming actually.... and i dont see me calming down either.... because i just cant see that lot doing anything worth watching.... and it will really fucking hurt when kenny goes...

Im going for a bit.

fuck this im going away for a few more days..

Huntelaar has 10 goals for Schalke this season.




Just sayin.
[/quote]

A player who has had a great scoring record wherever he's gone. Apart from Milan. Never seems to fit in though does he ? Strange
 
From Kenny's comments he seems to think he'll be spending in January, however if I was FSG I'd be looking at Comolli & Kenny's spending and thinking WTF are we going to get ? A Carroll or a Suarez, a Henderson or an Adam ? *jury is still out on Downing for me whereas the other two are not going to contribute to this season IMHO*.

But he shits goals and is a great finisher / poacher ... just what we need on the cheap in January.

Robert Lewandowski was directly involved in seven of the last 14 in Dortmund gates (5 goals, 2 assists)

Very good post.

Hodgson was shit and not the right man for us, but in his defence, he had peanuts to spend. Kenny's spent over £100 million. In just TWO transfer windows.

We're not asking for a Title challenge this season, we're not asking for us to win every game 4 or 5-0 and we're not asking us to not slip up from time to time. What we're asking for and expecting is to have a competent football team and one capable of beating Sunderland, Norwich and Swansea on our own turf.
It's unacceptable.

Oh right. In that case I'll have Messi and Iniesta
 
Personally i've always liked Darren Bent, but he's getting older and would still cost a lot.

Unforunately i don't know many players who fit the bill as a poacher. I'd happily look to youth to see if morgan could be a decent enough poacher.

Perhaps a young player like de jong, or a sujlemani (for the wing) at ajax would give us some decent options offensively.

For big money though i'd be tempted to see what it would take for Pato to be sold
 
Darren bent for me.

Knows where the back of the net is.

Defoe is out of favour at spurs and maybe worth a gamble.

[/quote]

defoe is a striker who scores in bursts, not a continuing threat

Bent tends to score regardless of form.
 
[quote author=Leon link=topic=47446.msg1423169#msg1423169 date=1320691613]
Bent would be a Downing like signing.
2 years too late.
[/quote]

Yup i agree. Too much for his age

Should have bought him years ago tbh

Couldn't agree more.

People are complaining about our wasted spending which was primarily on overpriced English players, the solution to it isn't more English players who will be overpriced.
 
M'Vila and Tevez on loan.

All out for Jovetic and a top young goalscorer in the summer.
 
the owners may say we expect a return on our 100m investment so made do with what you have till the summer, and if they did say that could we say that is an unfair stance to take?

Well, they've actually invested less given we received money for players but even so we spent a fair whack on players.....not very well as well. So not really an unfair stance. Fact remains we should be doing better with the players we have. Sooner Stevie is back the better as well (again)
 
Just a hunch, but i reckon the owners will think twice before giving more money for Kenny to spend.
