Guest Heneage Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Honestly though mate of the goals Harewood scored, would any different striker for a similar fee miss them? He's Scored pretty much poacher goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 He scores poacher's goals evidently, you need a bit of that. Mind you, there's no point in having him with those tactics. I said when we signed him that despite his build he's not a long ball footballer. Hughton must have missed ma post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the thing is, he showed great effort and determination to chase it down, but then today he'll look lazy. Not every game we play will go easily.

Alberto2005 Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 We're going up with or without Harewood, though, I'd keep him if we had the choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Honestly though mate of the goals Harewood scored, would any different striker for a similar fee miss them? He's Scored pretty much poacher goals. We've needed a poacher. I like Ranger and Carroll but between them they've missed a host of easy chances. Harewood's got 8/10 years of experience on them to turn those misses into goals. Aye he was garbage today but the tactics worked against him as they did everyone. You might aswell have played him at right-back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Alan Shearer 9 Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Tbh it doesn't matter who we get under this management, it was proven unacceptable last season, and if you look at our players who have left and improved since that just hammers home the point.

Guest Heneage Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Kezman, do you have any players in mind? Get ready. Kevin Philips would be a laugh but more chance of Hughton playing 4-3-3 But that sort of player basically. Federico Macheda who as well as being a poacher actually has a bit of touch and class about him and would play well of a big striker like Rossi can. Garry O'Connor is another one of Birminghams players but I think he is injured. Nathan Delfounso - Harewoods team-mate, he'll be on less and while I've only seen him along side Ranger his dribbling looked very good for a young guy. On a side note I'd like us to nick Lansbury off Watford assuming his loan hasn't been extended. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummie Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Delfouneso has barely started a game, but as we've only four strikers at the club, he's not going to be getting loaned out. Gary O'Connor is an absolute shithouse of a footballer. Marlon's no great footballing talent, but O'Connor makes him look like Cruyff by comparison.

ElDiablo Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 We should go all out for Cleverley, off Man Utd. Every time I've seen him he's been outstanding, even today when the game in general was drab he was the one who looked most likely to do something. He's got it all, good shot, good vision, pace on and off the ball, uses it intelligently and can pick out the killer pass. Looks a massive prospect imo.

GG Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 On a side note I'd like us to nick Lansbury off Watford assuming his loan hasn't been extended. Won't happen, he'll stay with us if he doesn't return to Arsenal (i.e he won't go elsewhere). He seems pretty happy, but the only stuff holding things up are the protracted contract talks with him and Arsenal. (Plus he was pretty poor today) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Plus he was pretty poor today) Everyone has an off day remember He looked very good against QPR, and if we can build a team that (dreams for a moment) passes it around with the likes of Cleverly and Guthrie we could do well. I think Wenger might like him here to be honest, get him used to playing in bigger grounds with more fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 What the hell's happened to Papa Bouba Diop the last year or so? Noticed his name on the bench for Pompey today. Worth a loan move? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
