Bovril 211 Posted January 1, 2006 provding we get more then £6mill from ashton (lets face it, he''s off in january) then why not replace him with the young lad from cardiff (19 years of age).He''s strong,powerful,quick and no hamstring problems present!the manager has stated he will probably leave should a bid come in and i reckon we could get him for £2millheres the article: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/cardiff_city/4573362.stm plus they might want the money to fund a move for koumas?

LinkNR9 0 Posted January 1, 2006 He''s definitely a good player, but I believe that some Prem teams are lining him up, according to the Press. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Huddy 0 Posted January 1, 2006 He wont leave cardiff for us, and anyway he''s got bigger fish to fry by the sound of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Sims 0 Posted January 1, 2006 I still don''t think Ashton will leave. I think he will stay until at least the summer. Depending on where Norwich end up, Premiership or Mid table obscurity will determine his future for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robbo007 0 Posted January 1, 2006 Boro got rid of him on a free, and he''s scored a few goals for a reasonable Cardiff team. There''s nothing about him to make me think he''s all that good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gazban 0 Posted January 1, 2006 I believe the reported 7.5 m asking price will make most of the prem teams baulk at buying him. Only one of the big 6 have that kind of money to spend on 1 player apart from Newcastle who will want to replace shearer, but I wouldn''t expect them to make a move until the end of the season when Shearer retires (if?). They''ll also be wanting a small pacey forward now Owens injured. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
