Probably isn't coming for a dozen reasons BUT this is exactly the type of player that we should have legitimate reasons to target and sign. Many on NSC still appear to have this "we're just Brighton" he isn't going to come here attitude.

He isn't liked by many Palace fans. He isn't going to play for Swansea this season, he didn't cost them anything, so they'll expect nothing for him. Clearly wages will be an issue, but surely whether it's wages or fees, it is all factored into the pie. Better to pay weekly wages, than spunk $250,000 or more and pay wages on top to another target.

If not permanent, a season long loan would be lovely. His is 34 and so not too many good options left? Clearly he'll feel at home with the rest of the global bandwagon and can bring both Kosovo Albanian heritage and a Finnish passport to the club.

I say sign up Shefki.

Would be a great signing, and the last piece of the jigsaw if Lua Lua signs...

Looking at our bench Sat even if we did get Kuqi for example, I'd still like a few more squad players... Depends how good Bridcut is too

I'd only say another defender needed (perhaps loan? As cover) and obviously a striker.

Tanno is the defensive cover, allegedly...

Tanno - defender
Bridcutt - defensive midfielder
Lua Lua - winger
Kuqi / other - striker

End of acquisitions, IMHO...

He's quite old though - only a short term cure if he did sign?

Would be perfect signing to play with Muzza. He would easy score 15+ with Bennett and LuaLua putting the crosses in and his physical presents up front would free up Murray to have more chances. Think this would be a formidable pairing indeed.

True but play him for 60-70 mins then bring on Barnes/Murrey... it would work.

If Lua Lua can supply then Kuqi I am sure would finish.

I would be happy with this? Lets see tomorrow!!

I'd be very happy to see it and it would be good for this season for sure. I think his age also suggests he'll take a wage cut etc as per someones comments on this thread that he was on a big wage at Palarse.

Under your skin.
I don't think his wages would be too high. He was playing in the German 2nd division a couple of years ago. The team he played for had been promoted twice in the last ten years. You could say they are the German Scunthorpe.

I can't see him being on massive wages. :shrug:

I hope not he is SHIT, my 2nd team is Blackburn and he was useless in Front of Goal, i thought we wanted a guy who will put the ball in the back of the net 15-20 times, Barnes and Murray would score more goals than this DONKEY
