HuckerbysMullet 0 Posted March 21, 2011 Hey guys, I''ve been a long time reader of this forum, not many posts but there we go!All this talk of CMS is irrelevant to me, I think people forget that we still have Chris Martin to return, who is likely to grab a few goals in the promotion run in, not forgetting Wilbraham, who as we know isn''t a natural goalscorer, but he takes a lot of the physical hustle and bustle off Grant Holt, leaving holty to play his own game. As for Jackson, im undecided, he seems to be a little light weight for this league, however im surprised Lambert hasn''t used him more when games are coming to a close, he is quick and will get in behind the opposition defence, just needs confidence and a finish to match right now. Overall I think we could make that 2nd spot ours, just need to get behind the lads as we have done all season and not let the pressure get to us, it''s nail biting, but thats football. OTBC!

canaryfan68 0 Posted March 21, 2011 HM, I agree with what you have said but I believe the addition of a new face gives everyone a lift too. Also, the new arrival of a striker means everyone has to raise their game too, at the moment the team just about picks itself depending on where and who we play.I am not advocating that it has to be CMS either, but we obviously rate him and his work rate is very high.If we had,(a big ''If'''') Holt, Martin, Jackson & CMS plus the services of Lansbury to boot I feel that would be enough.OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barclayboy1902 6 Posted March 21, 2011 if we are to get someone in on loan with view to permanant if its not cms, then im sure £3m would be enough to get d.graham , s.long or d.nugent. if were after just a loan the k.phillips, d.kamara or s.cox will do nicely thanks.

Gooders_Army 0 Posted March 21, 2011 lambert should only bring someone in before thursday if it the right player who can come in and really help us in the run in and score a few goals. Id love lambo to bring in victor moses from wigan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L4cole 0 Posted March 21, 2011 All I read on here is about how we need a striker on loan. Eeesh. its boring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gooders_Army 0 Posted March 21, 2011 L4cole I agree with you I dont think we need a striker cause I thought aaron played great against leicester and Simeon has pace and we got Chrissy coming back from injurie but maybe an extra body might help not sure what do u think buddy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boyo 0 Posted March 21, 2011 I don''t think we actually need another striker for the rest of the season. I think we can play Hoolahan off Holt and they will get us plenty of goals. Another striker would be helpful if Holt gets injured but lets hope that doesn''t happen, I''m content with what we have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woody11 0 Posted March 21, 2011 i say we go for nicky maynard in the summer. His contract is up next year and has shown he can score in this league. He would probably cost a lot less than CMS as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CDMullins 436 Posted March 21, 2011 you think Maynard would cost less than CMS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woody11 0 Posted March 21, 2011 yes. hes definitely not worth 5 million is he and anyway if we were going to spend 5 million on him or CMS i would say maynard by far as there is a lot more potential Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CDMullins 436 Posted March 21, 2011 City wouldnt pay £5Million.Maynard is certainally valued at more than CMS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Row D Seat 7 0 Posted March 21, 2011 Chris Martin was playing very poorly before his injury. We need a striker. Talk of CMS obviously isn''t "irrelevant" no matter what the original poster says otherwise we wouldn''t have tabled the offer we did. Let''s face it, if Lambert thought Martin coming back could make all the difference, he wouldn''t be looking at strikers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woody11 0 Posted March 21, 2011 i know they wouldnt pay that much but just making a point. Its hard to know how much each player is worth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Minster Canary 0 Posted March 21, 2011 I started watching about 10 mins in, so it must have been mentioned before that, can you put that into the context of conversation? Did Dion mention it? If so I won''t buy it after last weeks disappointment... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanaryOne 0 Posted March 21, 2011 They were talking about the transfer not going through and Matt Holland said Peterborough had said today if we offered the £3 million a deal could still be done , he then said Norwich said they have nothing to add to the statement they made last week .

TheGoogler 324 Posted March 22, 2011 Putting the fee issue aside, how many feel CMS would fit into the team? He seems to be a pacey, direct striker who profits off the back of poor defending. I worry he wouldn''t get the chances he gets in the lower leagues in the Champ, let alone the Prem and might find it hard up here. Still, there''s no doubt we do carve teams open when we''re playing to our best. If he''s in the side, even if he puts away one of the chances we miss each and every game, that''ll be a massive boost to our team overall.I''m torn! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
