Kitman Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Pressley as a short-term measure for around £250,000 wouldn't be the worst idea. If Emre is off he would be a great player for a season or two, hopefully then Pattison would be making the step up to first team regular Isn't Pressley a defender? Am thinking of the one at Hearts mind. blueconfused.gif Elvis. Not as quick as he used to be. "On m' head baby, hon hon hon" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 If Charlton are anywhere remotely near the relegation zone, they won't let Darren Bent go. A more realistic target is Marcus Bent, who could do a fill-in job for us for a few months, assuming a big money signing is out of the quesiton.

Don't watch Hearts as much as I used to - family ties now lead me to Falkirk. Speaking of which Russle Latapy would do me at the moment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A more realistic target is Marcus Bent, who could do a fill-in job for us for a few months, assuming a big money signing is out of the quesiton. The trouble is Marcus seems as goal shy as our lot. We might as well go for Jason Euell. I doubt Charlton'll let Darren Bent go full stop, although if they did it would improve their chances of getting relegated, which benefits us. It'd take a big pile of cash, but I think given our current predicament it'd well spent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlton are very unlikely to let him go, given that they are in a relegation scrap, and certainly not to Newcastle, who (at the moment, but probably not in January) who are amongst the teams scrapping with them. It is hard to do anything in the January window, struggling teams need to hold on to their best players, teams doing well want to keep on doing well.

James Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Henrik Larsson is very hardworking, and always faces the goal. That is the type of player we are looking for in my opinion, all our strikers are support strikers, not goalpoachers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Roeder's obsession with big target man means that John Carew is a good option. I would love to buy Darren Bent too, even if it means paying 10 millions for him. He would be a good long term buy who can produce results immediately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly not by then, but at some point, yes. I don't subscribe to this "too big to go down" line which is rubbish, but I genuinely do not think you will go down.

NE5 Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 we need one striker/forward - at least - or both, who will come in now, and perform. Now. What they cost and where they come from is irrelevant, but the odds on someone doing this who is already playing in the premiership is vastly superior to yet another untried foreigner. We simply can't afford another mistake from that market. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 People are seriously kidding themselves if they think we're going to get Bent. It'd cost upwards of £10m, and i don't think he'd work very well in our team and with this style of football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We simply can't afford another mistake from that market. I agree. Hopefully we can get some compo for Owen to help finance a move for a serious proven striker. Staying up is all important. We have to trust Shepherd et al to attract someone to the club, as they did in the case of Owen, they HAVE to get it right.
