Is Balldock Ulloa's replacement ?

[BensGrandad]

The obvious is out of our range Connor Wickham,

Who is the type of player whom would be a direct replacement for Ulloa? Throw me some names. I am lost.

Messi will do for me Otherwise anyone German as they always do well in every football competition, even when we beat them in 1966 due to a dodgy goal that didn't go over the line.

Why would we sell Ulloa if we just wanted to sign a lesser version of the same player ? I suspect we will go for quick and mobile 3 which, much as i enjoyed having Leo up front for us, weren't his greatest assets

I assume you don't remember Dirk Lehmann?

If he's out of our range surely it's not obvious??!!

 

[dangull]

Every exception proves the rule.

 

[BensGrandad]

I would think transfer fee, wages and Premiership ability would ensure that.

 

[perseus]

Replacement for Macca (CMS) ?

Replacement for Macca (CMS) ?

I don't think we need to replace CMS... as he still plays for us.

 

[bobzam]

Conor Wickham or Chris wood.

Dodgy goal....so 4-2 becomes 3-2...er ...who won then ?

Erm ball hits the cross bar still 2-2. All the germans dont chase an equaliser in the last minute to set up they think its all over it is now. Maybe Germany would have won on penaltys, we seen that before.

 

[Big G]

I hope not, i was expecting better.

Have we actually signed him then?
Have been occupied by 2 day old baby so not fully up to date with things!

No penalty shoot outs in 1966.

No just an argus update of interest which they think will happen, they usually get it right.

Ahh, thanks mate!

The originating source for that story being NSC then!!!!

OK we all know who would have won the replay, could have been like the 1983 cup final.

 

[stripeyshark]

Why do we have to "replace" players. Especially when we have a new manager who may well play a different system.

 

[Silk]

Baldock would be an excellent addition, quick, clever and skillful....he's not the battering ram one up front player that Ulloa was though, so if we get him it would mean either a change in tactics (likely anyway) or we'll be getting another in as well.

I'd be surprised if Baldock did join us though, he was BC's main man last year and they are bankrolled by a billionaire, so would be unlikely to accept our FFP type offer despite him being in the last year of his contract.

Unless the player wants to come here, of course.

Could be a possiblity our time with a target man is over. KLL said to be enjoying a more central role, could mean a front 3 is wanted under Hyypia, as opposed to Ulloa as a front man,
