Lucas Jutkiewicz anyone?

[ChickenBaltiPie]

'@Transfer_News24: Brighton have expressed an interest in signing Middlesbrough striker Lukas Jutkiewicz. #bhafc #boro'

I highly doubt its real, especially from some Twitter account.

No goals in 20 games is awful for a striker too.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

I think someone said on a thread elsewhere that Sky Sports are reporting the same interest.

I think this team currently needs an influx of pace. Don't think Jutkiewicz offers that.

 

[ChickenBaltiPie]

1 goal in the last 20

47/202 his whole career! :$

I'm in favour, if only to hear Aspinall pronounce it

I currently live with a Boro fan, and I asked him recently how Lucas is getting on. Apparently he does a lot of running but isn't really impressing. He reckons he doesn't have the strikers instinct but is hardworking and OK working off a big man. Not highly rated though,

Their local paper reported it first. This account copied it.

If we're looking at this sort of player why on earth didn't we make Barnes an offer he couldn't refuse.

We don't need another CMS surely

Sounds familiar

Would rather have Emnes.

 

[gripper stebson]

The issue is that we only ever play one upfront... and that will always be Ulloa when fit.

So anyone we sign is gonna have play a large amount of their football from the bench (and battle CMS for the privilage)

We are not going to sign a new 'first choice' striker.

People need to manage their expectations a bit.

 

[Fitzcarraldo]

I met him once about 4 years ago as he was going out with a girl I knew at Uni. He seemed like a nice bloke, although I didn't talk to him for long. Didn't mention anything about wanting to move to the Albion though?

 

[upthealbion1970]

Yay another alleged target in the media.

Much prefer it when a signing's announced outbid the blue tbh

 

[Telford Seagull]

I agree with fruitnveg, emnes may be the better option however.....the striker we sign needs to be a replacement for barnes (which emnes could do). He's struggled at M'boro, but still only 24 with plenty of potential. Jutkiwicz is a hard worker and able to play a variety of roles. Obviously due to his size he can be a back up to Ulloa. He can also play wide and off a striker and how he isn't rapid....he's not particulary slow. He could be a good signing and wouldnt cost a lot. A bit of a risk yeah but despite his lack of goals at boro I think our style would suit him

Beat me too it

I'd rather we signed Peterborough's chief scout and Crystal Palaces academy coach.

I agree with this, but apparently he only turns up when the mood takes him and is very frustrating.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Southamptons academy coach would be even better. Non-stop quality

 

[ElectricNaz]

I'd love that, only because I know one of his sisters. And she's a stunner. She'd be welcome at the Amex anytime! Upgrade on Frankie fo SHO
