In January I was handed a dossier on our summer scouting targets. PM me for details.

 

:iamatwat:

 

:lol: Can only imagine what that pm holds, NSFW guaranteed.

As Bent is a crock and would not work with Cisse I can only presume it is to add competition (and hopefully replace Strolla). Not panicking as it hasn't happened yet but the signs are ominous imo.

Understand (at least a bit) the idea of having english players who knows PL.

 

But lets face it, british players aren't that good! Top goalscorers the last 5 seasons? Lampard and Rooney sometimes scores, Bale last year. But that's not the kind we are after!

 

Three Lions isn't particullary good, and we go for players who barely could make the bench og the third team...

 

Why buy British experience if they are s**t??

 

Bent? Nope

Thomkins? Nope

I think a lot of the opposition to the idea of signing Bent is due to the poor season he's just had at Villa. If we were buying him direct from scoring 36 goals in a season and a half with the mackems I think people would be a little more upbeat - he was incredibly effective for that lot.

For me it's a pointless signing simply because he thrives on service and our chance creation last season was abysmal.

Aye, he'd have the same struggles as Cisse had this season.

It has more to do with the questionable functionability of a Bent-Cisse partnership, both of whom are specialised lone strikers who don't work well in a front 2, and that neither are likely to want to sit on the bench which means a likely Cisse departure.

 

We've been through that with Ba. Why give us a similar headache?

Yep, the same goes Gignac and Bony.

 

We're targeting the wrong type of offensive players at the moment.

Bent in if Cisse goes - but Cisse is better than Bent if he gets the right service! We need more who can do a bit on their own, score and create for others...

So just realised that Mbokani signed for Dynamo Kiev a few days ago, which could well mean Ideye Brown is going to be allowed to leave.

 

He didn't have a great Confederations cup tournament, as far as goals go, but his league goal scoring record over the last few years is great.

 

Rumoured to be around the £10 million mark, which seems to be the highest we're willing to go, as far as our rumoured bids go anyway.

 

Could be a possibility.

It's going to be yet another summer of disappointment. We'll, again, be left behind in the market. Other teams around us making excellent signings, build on their form, improve. We're looking at Darren Bent.

 

We are going backwards.

 

:suicide:

 

Full of emo kids this place at times :lol:

 

As though we didn't spend a whole season going backwards :lol:. Although at least that actually happened, rather than speculating that it might.

Don't think Cisse i going, and as said before here - Bent doesn't wanna be second or third in the line...

 

That's why we don't need Bent...

 

PEA is a different kind - a kind er need!

 

But get him? Hardly...

Really? Show me one shred of evidence that we are 'looking at Darren Bent'

 

I mean actual evidence not a quoteless article in the Daily Planet.

 

Edit: Is there a website that lists every PL transfer so far? Just want to see how 15 clubs have pushed ahead of us so far.  :undecided:

None at all obviously. Theres a rumour going round that 1/2 threads arent the entire forum but thats more crazy talk i think. If you dont like what i post you can always put me on ignore rather than read it.
