SnakepitCanary 0 Posted June 28, 2008 http://wwww.clubfanzine.com/MK_dons/v2.showNews.php?id=11568Oh dear. I trust Roeder''s judgement of players, but please just don''t sign him! He''s a 31 year old who has only played 1 season of championship football in his life. I hope this isn''t true, bring in Sibierski instead! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Green and Yellow 0 Posted June 28, 2008 Please either have faith in Roeder and his transfer policy be that loans or permanent deals, but don''t be selective. Either he is a good operator in the transfer market or he isn''t. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JC only beat him by 4!He is described as a battering ram. Other players in this ilk arent necessarily goal scorers but they do offer alot. Aerial threat, target man, hold up play, an outlet, a gd partner for another striker and the flexibility of playing 1 up top.Lets not write him off.......

CatNcfc 0 Posted June 28, 2008 I have to say this really worries me, my dad is a Notts County fan and Platt briefly played for them and did not impress that much, he looked largly ineffective and kind of arrogant. I''ve since seen him play for other league two teams and again he did not look anything special, he scores but not that many and doesnt do much else. And all of this was in league two... We really should be aiming higher. Would be odd to go from the promise and talent of Hoolahan to Platt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Giovani Dos Santos 0 Posted June 28, 2008 You all seem worried about the amount of goals he will score... Let me ask you, how many goals did Dublin score last year?Now to my main point, Clive Platt is not the star striker we are hoping for neither is he the prolific goal scorer we need. BUT We need different options, he would be our new battering ram.. the kind of guy you throw on for the last 20 if your losing to provide some knock downs and chances for poachers. Or the kind of guy you need playin up top on a rainy tuesday night in January at Watford where physicality is the game.Of course we would stilll need to sign anopther striker and I would like in fact to see another two if Platt is signed... One poacher type i.e Phillips and one tall, skilful type i.e RasiakBut if Platt comes with a low price tag that doesnt stop us from getting these other types of striker we would also need, then i say dont write the guy off yet.If he returned with 8 goals, Cureton got 10, Phillips got 15 and Rasiak 15... would you be complaining then?!

ron obvious 1,514 Posted June 29, 2008 [quote user="Giovani Dos Santos"].........and one tall, skilful type i.e Rasiak ..........[/quote]Has anyone had a good, long look at Raisak?I only saw him once (briefly, on telly), but he looked a complete donkey - clumsy as Hell. I know you shouldn''t make snap decisions like that, but I just didn''t get a warm feeling about the guy. He is obviously effective, scores goals at this level, but is he the sort of player wanted at Carrow Road?I''d be interested to hear from people who''ve had a better look at him.
