AP16 0 Posted August 10, 2008 Seeing the game yesterday I don''t personally think Shola is the right man to fit the bill. I''d prefer Rasiak as I think he''d suit our style of play as I reckon he has better ability with the ball at his feet than Ameobi does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
O.T.B.C 1 Posted August 10, 2008 Jerome from Brum. Failing that Iverson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grif 0 Posted August 10, 2008 Forgot to add: I personally think it will be Iversen, because he fits the bill physically, has stated his desire to end his career in England (due to his wife being from here) and Roeder has already said that his target ''is scoring goals in his league''. Well the only one of the many names to have been mentioned that is currently in a league campaign is Iversen that we know of..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geronimo 0 Posted August 10, 2008 Anyone with a PROVEN goal scoring attribute none of this Carrol crap as hes totally unproven. Also with Ameobi hell be really unfit and will be lacking in recent match practise.Rasiak would be an immnsae signing but as long as Roeder can sign someone with a good record ill be happy. They should be looking to spend two million at least here not a cheap knock off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Great Wall Of Tettey 0 Posted August 10, 2008 rasiak.we want a player that is big and strong, but can also bang a few in with his feet, unlike players such as howard ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Syteanric 1 Posted August 10, 2008 im gonna get shot down for this but...Steve Howard....jas :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
O.T.B.C 1 Posted August 10, 2008 But Howard would be on massive wages and is getting on a bit. If we got him, that would really give the negatives something to moan about.Thought of another one, we will have to spend 3 million, but we wnat to get promoted and he knows how to score. How about Marlon King. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

O.T.B.C 1 Posted August 10, 2008 Not saying I wouldn''t have him here, just think there is better players, not sure where and their avalibilty. Your right, he would set up the goals. As long as we are not tempted to play hoof ball for the remainded of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mason 47 1,923 Posted August 10, 2008 So, ideally, we''re looking for a new Super Matty Svensson? I seem to remember he was quite handy in the air but also added the passing games being played. He wasnt the biggest but made an effort to get up for headers and won a fair few. Just need to find someone that fits this persona, the sort of player that can handle people like Elliot Ward and stick a few headers away of a season...

Sure when a cross was put into the box he could thump a decent header into the back of the net but when the ball was kicked out from goal kicks etc he hardly ever got his head on the ball, a leaping salmon springs to mind, but still thought he was a very clever player.

O.T.B.C 1 Posted August 10, 2008 Never thought about Matty, but yes, he is the sort of player we need. He is very much like Iverson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
london Canary 0 Posted August 10, 2008 i think it''ll proberly end up beening someone none of us have mentioned......For me though, if not shola then rasiak Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yelverton Yella 0 Posted August 10, 2008 After yesterday, although it''s dangerous to base an opinion on one game, I''d go for Iverson as I think he would complement our (new found!) style of play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

O.T.B.C 1 Posted August 10, 2008 Would do the job, last few clubs he has scored a lot and last time he was here in England with Wolves and Spurs, he did not manage many,but they were in the top flight I recal and I''m sure he would be an asset here. I was reluctant at the start when I heard we were linked with him, but the more I llok into him, then the more I think he could do a job. I think my list changes daily, at this time, in this order I would go for:King, Iverson, Jerome, Shola, Rasiak and Howard. Probably change tomo with new targets etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
O.T.B.C 1 Posted August 10, 2008 Iversen is known for his finishing abilities and astonishing heading skills. He is a constant threat to the opponents'' defence and goalkeeper. Many consider Iversen the best header in Norway, which means beating, among others, former team-mate Vidar Riseth, Hannes Sigurdsson and Olivier Occean.From Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steffen_Iversen.I know Wiki is not always the most realible format, but hey ho, I still believe it.
