Ronaldo Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Ollie Bernard was the best player on the pitch at the San Siro not so long ago. I bet we could get him back to help out and who cares about his recent form and... oh, hang on. daft man. you're talking almost 6 years back, and a player who only had 2 good seasons in his entire career Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 And people complain about Owen being injured? Apart from the fact he's a little turd scrote who isn't anything like the player he was - do you not think it strange how he's always at the top of the list when clubs need to sell? We need fresh blood - and not another striker midget. I do hope these people realise that if we signed Bellamy, we'd have two strikers shorter than him. He'd be a giant among men. height doesn't matter too much....timing and execution does. think how many headres owen has scored,martins for that matter. ferdinand was,i believe under 6ft aswell. I'm sorry, but no. There are severe disadvantages to have three tiny strikers, and two fragile tiny strikers. It's not even about being under or above six foot. I definitely take some one who has 5' 10-11 and a bit robust. I think power and height are important attributes of strikers and always have been. martins is robust and on aoccasions has shown himself to be able to lead like that (unfortunatly as he keeps proving you never know which martins is turning up). agreed it's not ideal but think rooney-tevez........beardsley-cole....? There's a reason Manchester United bought Berbatov. And Cole is exactly what I was talking about when I mentioned a robust player of average height. Oba is robust and physical, and that's something I like about him, but his sheer lack of height and body size prevents him from fulfilling certain roles.

Ronaldo Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Bellamy - Bernard is a stupid comparison tbh, wind the clock back 18 months and many were calling Bellars world class, with a strong element of justification Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzzieMandias Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 According to the Independent, W.Ham would only want to sell Bellamy if they sign a replacement, and "would also want, at least, to recoup close to the record £7.5m spent on him."

Guest sittingontheball Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 According to the Independent, W.Ham would only want to sell Bellamy if they sign a replacement, and "would also want, at least, to recoup close to the record £7.5m spent on him." Aye, and Icelanders are still flush with cash. They'll get what people give them for their players and nowt more. Especially if they're used to silly wages. I think Bellamy's still class and suspect that Liverpool must have dumped him so quickly for personality issues. However, he's not a midfielder, and given the amount of cash we've got to play with, that's all we can afford. Especially if we're going for a first choice left back. Two center mids, esp ones that can play 4-3-3, would be my main priority. If we are to sign a striker, a big physical one for Route One would make most sense in a relegation battle.

Tisd09 Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Given his injury record, our bad luck with injuries, and a dubious past at the club (not blaming him for everything) I think I would stay clear, on his day he is one of the most effective players in the Prem but I don't think we would see enough of his days.
