Stowcanary 0 Posted January 29, 2016 Talksport believe we''re close to a deal for him. I''d definitely take him, a big guy who can play that lone striker role, and knows where the goal is. Not sure i trust the source though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 830 Posted January 29, 2016 So we have him, Gayle, bamford, jedinak, that Leicester defender, the Danish mid and santon all joining before Monday!Hope they all fit in okay! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrs miggins 0 Posted January 29, 2016 Would be very happy if this was a loan with a view to a permanent deal. Much better option than Gayle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bethnal Yellow and Green 1,557 Posted January 29, 2016 Seems pretty clear that Gayle isn''t coming to Norwich. Not sure how the Diouf rumour sits with the Bamford one - guess it is one or the other. Diouf would be a great addition for the run in and beyond. Can also play out wide, versatility is vital for AN I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,657 Posted January 29, 2016 Well I guess at least we''re being linked with these guys, pretty-much all of which are decent players. We just have to wait and see which, if any, come off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaemae2 0 Posted January 29, 2016 Diouf is a player way above our level, this will be great if it happens. It will be a FANTASTIC move. Not nec. what we need, but if we survive he''s our #1 next year and a REALLY really good one. I''d think Mbokani wouldn''t be back next year if Diouf comes (which is unfortunate, but Diouf is actually better). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Essjayess 307 Posted January 31, 2016 I posted this days ago, recalling we had gone in for Walters in the Summer but Hughes had stuck solid regarding letting him go, so the Diouf news is no surprise really. We never stood a chance of getting him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Move Klose 303 Posted January 31, 2016 Stoke have bid £21m for Berahino so maybe there''s something in Diouf leaving now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaemae2 0 Posted January 31, 2016 if not, we should probably be happy with Bamford. Strengthens our striker depth in more than adequate fashion. Granted Diouf would be more of a solid consistent starting threat, IMO Mbokani is good enough in that role. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Move Klose 303 Posted January 31, 2016 Ant believe WBA not selling Berahino for £21m. That''s great business for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
