mrmojorisin75 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Would anyone take Gomis? i would prefer another type coz i want us to play 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1. same same. point is he cant play next to cisse imo. If he comes in as back up for cisse and we get a LW/attacker with pace and goalscoring record then fine. have not seem him for some time though. think we really need to consider if we should be signing the types of player we all want or the types of player that pardew can work with i have a suspicion that signing the former will be our death note if we do as you suggest we will not develop and key players will leave in the summer! 100% sure of that! we're not developing anyway, i think we'll lose more key players when we're relegated after trying to get technically proficient dwarves to play like the wimbledon FA cup winning team know what you're saying but the football was awful, awful at times last season and players were happy 'cause they were winning well maybe the first step in the right direction would be to let pardew go oh well yeah but that's looking like the least likely of all the options at the moment isn't it, i was approaching it from the assumption that they'll never sack him, which i really believe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thorin Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I don't really want Gomis, but not sure if I wouldn't take him on just as this team is seriously lacking depth. I'm also thinking he will do better than Ameobi, decent finisher. But where is the Gameiro rumour?!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tyson Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I think Gomis would really suit this league, seems to have power, a good strike and likes to get in amongst it. Seems to have a decent positional sense too. There's a more to him, than being used as a battering ram. Would still be wasted, to an extent under Pardew. If Pardzilla is going nowhere, i still wouldn't be indifferent to the idea of selling Cisse, and going with a twin towers set-up (in a 442) with a pair of K.Jones types used to soften-up the centrehalves.

nobby_solano Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 i'd guess that gomis could last the full 90 mins, as opposed to the shola half hour Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Weird window. Could still end up being a really good one, but could also end in disaster. Teetering between the two at the minute Definitely. It really is a pivotal month in our survival really. Win on sat, confidence builds further and things look al lot rosier heading towards a crippled Villa. Couple of signings coming in would just go to cement things nicely too. A loss on sat and no success in the transfer market and we really are staring down the barrel of a gun. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Swedish international potential successor Douglas at FC Twente Should Douglas this transfer still leave at FC Twente, then the Tukkers his successor already in the picture. Pontus Jansson, 21-year-old defender actively Malmö FF is the name. because Douglas again of attention of Newcastle United Twente Jansson studied recently. The Swedish International reported that self Twente is the only club that the transfer fee, of around 2 million, willing and able to pay. Furthermore, because the Italian club Cagliari, Parma and Torino interest in Jansson. Would Twente see money for Douglas, it will have to sell him this transfer window. The contract shall run from the defender at the end of this season. An interim sales thus belongs to the possibilities. http://soccer4u.nl/nieuws/10781/Zweeds-international-mogelijke-opvolger-Douglas-bij-FC-Twent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 The reported interest in Douglas is good news and bad news. Good that we're interested, bad in that eventually we seem to sign our first choice targets only. Makes me nervous that after the Remy failure we might not pursue another striker seriously this window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Would anyone take Gomis? Me. No idea who he is but his stats look much better than the experts on here are suggesting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baf%C3%A9timbi_Gomis#Club He's a good player i just don't want to see hoofball all day long, i'm sure he would be a good signing under the right style of play. But would prefer someone pacy who could play wide, or like Siem De Jong who could play behind Cisse and add creativity as well as goals. But yeah beggars can't be choosers.

I don't get how if we want a CB & we do need one but if he is a target you would expect early action from us, they will need to replace him its not like he is a bench warmer for them.

Guest icemanblue Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Fucking 'hoofball', man. Has to be the most over used and inaccurate term on here.

Smal Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 It's true, like. We haven't been overly direct on a consistent basis since Stoke away. Negative and turgid, yes. But overly direct all the time? I think not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah potential to be a great window but I think most fans lack faith that it will be, urgency is needed but I think excuses are being readied, I think a lot would welcome a good old panic buy at this stage.

Guest icemanblue Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 We're still top of the long ball stats by quite some way like. Are we? I haven't checked, I must admit. Whatever the stats say, there's been a marked improvement in our football recently, and a massive decrease in the amount of hoofs from all over the pitch aimed at noone in particular. This does not take Mike Williamson into account, and he obviously got a rocket up his arse about them at half time against Norwich. Do the stats on long balls differentiate between clearances, set pieces and aimed diagonal or cross field balls? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Do the stats on long balls differentiate between clearances, set pieces and aimed diagonal or cross field balls? It's passes that are 35 yards or longer I think. Might be 25 yards in fact. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
