NUFC transfer rumours in the press

Does make me laugh mind when I see people turning their noses up at people like Gignac & Bent. Our striking options since relegation have been shocking. Either would easily be our 4th best striker since 2009.

 

Best 3rd striker in over 10 years, tbh.

 

Bellamy?

 

Edit: If you meant best 3rd choice striker ignore.

Just don't even bother full stop if you're gonna ask silly questions like that.

 

You never know with you, Ronaldo.  You always talk with a bit of superiority attitude, which is a good style on a football chat board.

Was I genuinely not clear enough? Sorry if I wasn't, like. Seems pretty straightforward to me. Obviously neither would be in the top 3.

 

Yes, you were, just thought it was a bit misleading.  Felt like winding you up a bit ;)  Not the best attempt I admit.

Its hardly that black and white though, people are looking for a top class striker and think there might be better possibilities than Gignac (especially a the reported £12m), who's proven to be an average goal scorer even in the French league.  I wouldn't turn my nose up at him for the right price, since I don't know enough about him as a player, but I see no problem in people having that view.

 

As for Bent, not only is he about the worst option I can think of to play up front with Cisse he's also on his way down, headed to 30, and would apparently cost £8m with likely significant wages.  If we're going to get him on the cheap (couple of million and a big wage cut) to replace Ameobi then fine.  If we're looking at him as one of our main starters its fucking madness, so yeah I'll turn my nose up at that one.

The offer for Gignac is huge, he's a good player but Marseille could sell him for half of this price, they can't afford to pay his wage et desperatly want to sell him. He's injury prone too.

Even in our shit position I'm hoping for better than him, 22 league goals in 79 games is disgusting when you are t a top club in a weak league, especially at your peak age.

 

Considering our current back-up striker is Shola Ameobi, he with all of 9 goals in his last 78 league games, it seems a little irrational to turn up your nose at a player like Gignac. Especially considering he scored 18 in all competitions last season.

Tremor Christ was the anthem of my emo teenager days.

 

I remember first hating them because my school's bully always wore Pearl Jam's shirts, until a friend of mine played Versus at his place while we watched his dad's porn stash.

 

Man, I feel old now.

 

"Red Mosquito" is my favorite underrated Pearl Jam song.

Have we bid for Eddie Vedder?

 

I hope so but knowing JFK we would get the lead singer of Fairground Attraction.

 

The best litle bit of lyrics i'll ever hear : Black - Pearl Jam.

 

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,

I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky,

But why, why, why can't it be, can't it be mine?

As it were, my username and sig are from a PJ track.

 

Best 2 days of my life were in August 2009 when I attended SJP for the first time, and watched PJ live in Manc town for the first time as well. Unforgettable.

They did a brilliant version of The Who's Love Reign O'er Me  :drool:

 

Were you there at the MENA bimpy?

 

Nope, but would you believe that i saw Pearl Jam in a dingy little seafront club/pub in Southend in 1992, my love started from there.
