Striker Or No Striker ?

[Papa Lazarou]

maybe its Ricky Lambert, i`m sure he`d like the opportunity of playing in the championship next season.

Mikkel Forsell on loan from Hannover with a view to a permanent summer move. Well I can dream !!

Forsell must be about 78 by now. Past his sell-by date, anyway.

CMS from Peterborough could do a job.

Good shout on Billy Sharp.....realistic and would be class, great scoring record

I thought he was like 32,not really past his sell by date considering Forster signed for us when he was about 34

You never want a team, i think, who think they've made their point. With Gus as manager, any new face should know they have to fit in and that nobody is an automatic selection. A striker would be a welcome addition, i think. Someone who could bring something different to a slightly wornout and unnumbered frontline.

Albion boss Gus Poyet has not ruled out a late swoop in the loan market for a striker.

The Seagulls have until 5pm to add to their squad.

Poyet confirmed no players will be leaving but hinted at a possible new arrival.

"I am not saying it will happen but it could," he said. "A few things need to come together."

The Argus understands the Seagulls are trying to set up a loan-to-buy deal.


Looks like Poyet wants this striker for next season aswell as the remainder of this season.

Ahhh, hadn't read the article

BBC Sport - Football - Dani Pacheco and Sam Vokes Norwich City bound

With Norwich bringing in two strikers Pacheco and Vokes in on loan, could they be prepared to loan out someone like Aaron Wilbraham or Simeon Jackson?

Just a guess.


Edit: Wilbraham injured.

 

[New Carpet?]

As all these threads almost entirely consist of everyone making pot-shot guesses out of nothing, I'll have a stab in the dark the loan-to-buy striker that we're after is one of the two Masons (Joe from Plymouth and Ryan from Tottenham) or possibly West Brom's underachieving front man Simon Cox.

This must also be the first "New Striker" thread in about a year that's not had mentions of Kevin Phillips or Adam Le Fondre.

Oh.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Gus has shown he likes putting faith in the players he has.

How many players has Gus been resposnsible for getting in on loan in his time? Not many.

He seems to only like getting players in on loan if he intends to sign then permanantly.

LuaLua being the only example I can think of where this hasnt happened (though Gus would have if he could).

Edit: Wilbraham injured.

The reason they've been brought in is more due to an injury crisis than their strikers not being any good. But having said that, these two are to replace Martin and Wilbraham who are injured. Jackson by all accounts has been poo this season. He'd be an interesting one for me - clearly a goalscorer, but failed in his one attempt at the level we want to be at next year. Tricky one.

Sharp is currently injured, and may well not play again this season.

Joe Mason looked very promising. Perhaps we could do Plymouth a bit of favour with a cash in advance loan to buy deal. He'd come in the 'one for the future' category though I suspect, and we could probably do with a do the business NOW striker.

There's sentiment and there's Harty! Just feel Gus would like to break a record or two to put two fingers up at some of our competitors who have been mouthing off?

I reckon Gus feels he owes Sandaza an opportunity to rewards his efforts through the season and his attitude despite getting very few minutes in the first team.

 

[Bring back Bryan wade!!]

We are trying to sign Will Hoskins on a loan to buy deal.

We are trying to sign Will Hoskins on a loan to buy deal.

Now that sounds plausible.
