BB 6 Posted February 13, 2011 Without being too obscure, we might not need a big name but we do need someone. Remember David Nielsen and his 5 goals in 5 games- big part in getting us to the play off final. Hadn''t heard of him before or since. Just really did the business for a few games, Marc Libbra is another one, as was Mat Svensson. It''s almost as if we just need another forward - on the cheap, on loan, whatever, just someone that might bring that additional spark. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Webbo118 0 Posted February 13, 2011 [quote user="barclayboy1902"]lambert could just be the man to get macarthy scoring again, he is a proven goalscorer for sure, i know west ham fined him for being overweight but surely he still trains with them.[/quote]Only when he is forced to !!

O.T.B.C 0 Posted February 13, 2011 Good shout. But I don''t think Fulham are blessed with strikers. I would have him and has the pace we need and scores goals in this league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BB 6 Posted February 13, 2011 [quote user="priceyrice"]I like the sound of Lupoli, dunno what everyone thinks about his loan spell here, but there were some games he looked really talented. He really didn''t get on well with Roeder, i know that for a fact, so maybe under Lambert we will get the best out of him. Wenger used to say he was the best finisher int he squad when at Arsenal.[/quote]Lupoli for a month is the kind of player I was thinking of in my earlier post.

CanaryOne 0 Posted February 14, 2011 I think deep down we all know Lambert will just keep rotating Martin ,Jackson and Wilbraham for the rest of the season , fingers crossed it does not cost us but there are some very tough away games coming along and we cannot afford to dominate as we did at Burnley and come away with nothing.Looking at this weeks fixtures a defeat at Leeds will almost certainly drop us to 6th and Leicester are looking relentless , how good a loan signing has Yakubu been , thats what we need somebody who can put a chance away when it comes along, far to many went begging again Saturday .

barclayboy1902 6 Posted February 15, 2011 agreed, too many chances went begging, we really need a fox in the box who will put these chances away.kevin phillips type. micheal owen anyone !!2m = 125k per week till end of season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The gut 0 Posted February 20, 2011 Be fair barclayboy, he did get the best out of Lee Croft. Whether it was just because he told all the shops not to sell him any chocolate, crisps or sweets I don''t know but he seemed to lose a couple of stone and run like he''d never run before under him.

barclayboy1902 6 Posted February 20, 2011 he hasnt run like that since!.how would you feel about robbie blakejust the sort of little sh*t that scores against us whenever he plays. fox in the box type Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The gut 0 Posted February 20, 2011 Blake ..... mmmm maybe. Do you know what, I reckon Hucks could bloody help us for the rest of the season. I just cannot believe that even now he couldn''t do a job as a super sub and improve our team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woman in the Stands (WITS) 0 Posted February 20, 2011 If we''re gonna go for Hucks, we may as well sign Chris Sutton too, as a proven goal scorer .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

teofilio cubillas 0 Posted February 21, 2011 Save our money to get Craig Mackail-Smith. Saw him play recently; pace, movement and finishing all top class. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barclayboy1902 6 Posted February 21, 2011 if we want someone like mackail smith then thye window isnt really a problem as we simply agree the fee and then loan till we can sign. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
York Canary 28 Posted February 21, 2011 Got a feeling that PL is still trying to get a return from Jackson and doesn''t seem to want to part with more money on a striker like him until he''s had a full season to prove himself. Unfortunately that could bugger up the chances of promo this season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
York Canary 28 Posted February 21, 2011 He could offer Jackson as a swap with money, but that would still leave us short I guess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGoogler 324 Posted February 21, 2011 Some of the suggestions in the thread are rather ambitious. No way we''ll get anyone like Lita, Mackail Smith or the likes. I think Ched would be worth a punt. There''s also been some rumours about Simon Cox of West Brom. He''d be good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whoever it is has got to be proven at this level for me - nows not the time to take gambles, we really need tried and tested. To be fair whilst i agree getting Lita would be difficult or nigh on impossible, equally i can''t see why he''d be any harder to obtain than Ched - Neither club would want to let either of those strikers go, despite Ched''s inconsistances. To be honest, i admit that Lita was more wishful thinking on my part - I have no doubt he''d do better for an attacking side like us rather than inconsistant Reading, is very much proven at this level - and I''d put money on automatic promotion if he got involved.
