Bloody hell. Theres no pleasing some of you lot. It's a striker. You never know he could come good. FFS give him a chance If It's going to be true? You moan about prices going up but without the funds we can't get the world beaters you expect.

That is how I see it. Would not be happy if this was the "gem" striker though.

Hardly a "gem"... But I recon he could be pretty decent for us. He was never going to do well at west ham with their hoofball style, he's better suited to us and our style. I wouldn't say he is much of an improvement over what we currently have though. Will have to see! If we sign him... Of course!

I think it is a very decent signing. Very happy with this.

Give the guy a chance! OK it's not Owen or Heskey or RVP but let's get real!

A big FAT This!
We've obviously missed out on signing our top priority strikers for various reasons, so let's give him a chance to see how he fits into Gus' style and whether he can either set up goals or score them.

Am i right in thinking he scored 1 in 5 games for the last three years?
I'm a bit underwhelmed to be honest - it looks like the last time he "set the world on fire" was when he played for St Etienne and scored 23 goals in 89 games. Not exactly prolific even then and that was a while back. Don't want to pre-judge the guy but the question "What is it with Gus and forwards?" keeps going round my head.

Abort, retry, fail
He hasn't even signed or kicked a ball in anger yet! What are you basing that on?
Poyet's Strikers...
Barnes - Success
Holroyd - Low risk, cheap, fail
Sandaza - Did his job, nothing more
Bergkamp - Fail
Hoskins - Promised much, hasn't worked out thus far
CMS - Decent
As far as permanent transfers are concerned, I wouldn't say he has been a complete failure at all. Ready made strikers cost a great deal of money.

Really? More like a total waste of money!

Well? Was he seen in the Directors' Box?

Just stop now. Your pathetic slating of CMS is embarrassing. Do you understand that as a supporter of Brighton you should 'support' the players? Although I highly doubt that you are a real fan.

What about Toby as well? Hardly a success.
Barnes is played out of position & CMS is not good enough is he?
Very poor manager record. Three games without a goal & 11 competitive games on the trot without a win. Roll on Saturday. Might get a 0-0 if we are lucky
