Quailman Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Only time will tell I guess, but what do we really expect being in the championship?! I've lost all faith in Hughtons decision making anyway. I hope I'm wrong! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

QBG Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Good signing. On the topic of the number 9 shirt it really should be retired imo. we should at least retire the no.9 myth. Aye, we've had some good no 9s but only 2, 3 if you count Supermac who were outstanding wearing that number. Don't know if Hughie Gallagher wore that number or not. nobody wore numbers then. Really? Seems unthinkable when you when you look at all the ridiculous squad numbers they have nowadays. Saw Bendtner wearing 52 for Arsenal yesterday William Gallas is number 10 for them, too. Aye thats daft as well. Geremi's number for Ankaragucu is canny though as someone already mentioned whys it daft. i remember ardiles wearing no.1 in argentina '78 I'm a traditionalist. Should always be GK 1 RB 2 CB 5 CB 6 LB 3 RM 7 CM 4 CM 8 LM 11 CF 9 CF 10 imo anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danh1 Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I quite pleased with this signing. Someone up front with more pace than any of our current strikers and more goals in a poor side. Sounds good enough to me. I would love a centre midfielder but it isn't going to happen. I have been really pleased with the way this transfer window has gone.

LiquidAK Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Know nothing about him. What sort of striker is he? Pacey? Good finisher? Are we generally pleased with this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasy Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Seems like a very average player who couldn't hit a barn door before this season. Coventry fans seem to think he's just the same as Andy Carroll, I'm thrilled obviously Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry fans seem to think he's just the same as Andy Carroll, I'm thrilled obviously Just what we need . The irony is that if a lower half premiership side bought him we'd all be on here saying 'they're preparing for life in the Championship signing him' yet at the very time we should be preparing for life in the Premiership we buy someone whose record and history is patchy at best.

He doesn't look particularly pacey on the Youtube clip. Similar to Carroll I would say, maybe a bit quicker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
