Katie Borkins 1 Posted September 5, 2016 Taken off after a tackle in the WBA game. If you listen carefully you can hear the sounds of a barrel being scraped. Or maybe it''s Chamakh flexing his knee cartilage. Either way, no thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

andy cousins 9 Posted September 5, 2016 went off injured witth a cut on his leg in the WBA game, hardly indicative of a serious injury, nothing like slagging off a player before he arrives, mind it is standard round here unless they cost £10 mil+ and are overpriced Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lessingham Canary 99 Posted September 5, 2016 We would only be looking for one season from him, and if he chips in with a dozen goals that help us finish top 6 then no brainer ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A Load of Squit 5,161 Posted September 5, 2016 In his interview last week Moxey did say he was coming back.“He’s not been training with the club, he’s been in and we’ve talked to him,” Moxey said of Chamakh.“We’re going to talk to him again next week, we’re going to see what sort of physical condition he’s in, he’s not played much recently.“We’re looking at his injury status very carefully, we’ll see but it’s not something that we’re jumping up and down about, it’s just another situation that’s worthy of investigation.”So no surprise at all.

lake district canary 4,531 Posted September 5, 2016 [quote user="Lessingham Canary"]We would only be looking for one season from him, and if he chips in with a dozen goals that help us finish top 6 then no brainer ?[/quote]Agreed. But unless he put in a spectacular display when he comes on in a match, he is likely to be there mainly as back up and as such would be quite a useful squad member for this season. Jerome and Oliveira will be the main guys, hopefully 15 - 20 each, but Chamaqh could well be a useful reserve and chip in. Proven at the highest level with Arsenal, started ok at Palace, then injuries have hampered him. If fit and ready, 33 or not, would be a quality addition.

Crafty Canary 495 Posted September 5, 2016 This thread reminds me of the reaction when we signed Dion Dublin. He turned out to be an excellent signing. If we do sign Chamakh it might be prudent to give him a chance to show what he can do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norfolkngood 1,086 Posted September 5, 2016 Jerome and Oliveira will be the main guys, hopefully 15 - 20 Jerome maybe but Olivera has only scored 30 goals in his whole career i doubt he will score 15 + in one season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iron_stan 0 Posted September 5, 2016 the only player out of jerome, chamakh, oliviera and lafferty that is even remotely capable of getting close to 20 goals this season is jeromeand im dubious if hes going to be motivated given the speculation over signings during the summerdelia out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanaryOne 0 Posted September 5, 2016 Surely even Andreu would have been a better option than Chamakh yet we loaned him out knowing we were going to be short . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted September 5, 2016 Err... far be it for me to interrupt your Pinkun/Canary Call-esque moaning session, but you do realise that Chamakh is a target man, and well, Andreu is not? Why compare apples to oranges just to slate the club?You do also realise that we''re really lacking a target-man who can bring others into play, right?Anyway, if we did sign Chamakh I still think he could be a useful addition if (and it''s a big if) we can keep him fit.

Branston Pickle 3,656 Posted September 5, 2016 I think Chamakh would be a useful addition to the squad if he can keep fit - the fact that he''s been in the PL all his career, and still potentially attractive to sides like WBA, seems rather lost on some.

How far has the club fallen , parachute payments and yet scrabbling around for trash like this . If we need a target man we have Lafferty who can do that job at least hes not 33 and washed up .Carry on supporting Delia and her Board of buffoons though , while you still can .

Lessingham Canary 99 Posted September 5, 2016 Chamakh''s back and Lafferty is all front, more front than Yarmouth.Yes Chamakh is a gamble, especially on his fitness, but Lafferty is not a solution, yes took his goal well against coventry the other week, where defenders gave him 10yards of space, he will never get that sort of room in this league, let him go. Nelson may make difference and if him and Chamack can support Jerome with another 15-29 goals between them we will be there a bouts come next May. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
