Baggio Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 I was just thinking about us being linked with Leroy Lita and I can't believe how much he's dropped off over the past few years. For £350,000 I reckon it's worth taking a chance on him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thespence Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Would Johnothan De Guzman be a terrible shout? Young, realitivly cheap, and could develop into quite the little player. Never been keen on players who are Canadian-born Dutch but of Jamaican and Filipino descent. But joking aside one of the De Guzman is on Bosman in the summer, cant remember which one though, so one of them should be cheap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For £350,000 I reckon it's worth taking a chance on him. Saw him play for Norwich twice this season & he is still quick. Has the "played in PL" badge as well so he knows the crack. But is he upto the job? Went missing more than most when Reading hit the 2nd season syndrome. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For £350,000 I reckon it's worth taking a chance on him. He's better than Shola from what I've seen of him. He was decent a few years ago when he was around the under 21 set up but seems to have lost his way over the last 18 months or so. He's not going to improve our first team but when Martins isn't playing we desperately miss his pace, I think a player like Lita could offer us this when he's out and also offer us something different from the bench in the way LuaLua used to. At that price I can see it being good value risk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Better than Shola and Smith imo. You could probably find posts on this very forum (not by me) claiming he is better than Martins aswell. Lita for £350,000 is definitely worth the gamble imo, we could sell him for a couple of million if he doesn't work out! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was Lita who burst onto the PL then it would be a snip but a player who is not going to do much at PL level is no good as we have plenty of them already. Like I said I have seen twice for Norwich & he still quick, his record is nearly 1 in 2 for Roeder. His record in his last season in the PL was 1 goal in 14.

Zigic Martins up front would have the potential to be an awesome partnership. I seem to remember Valencia willing to let him go in the summer, dont have a clue where he is atm though.

That's his brother Julian, he's a defensive midfielder, Johnothan is your more attacking midfielder, would work well imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Plays on the left or right. Is he naturally right-footed or left? I always prefer a wide man to be playing on his natural side so he doesn't have to cut back to get a cross in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
