oneallanclarke Leeds deciding Bamford couldn’t’t be relied on due to his injury record and then going out and signing not one but two strikers with exactly the same profile. Vardy’s a free agent so they should add him on a pay for play contract. “Which one of you lot is fit this week? You? Right, you’re in.”
YoungParisian_inExile So... who's getting the goals for us this season ? 240 games and 57 goals in 9 seasons at Everton . If we're scraping the barrel then we should have gone with Vardy, at least he knows where the net is 😐
Djpekingman YoungParisian_inExile Vardy believe it or not is only 38. Pace has gone. Too old and slow for the prem as Leicester found out last season when they relied on him. If Calvert/Lewin passes his medical then he's not a bad bet at a mere 28. We still need a first choice striker though - he ain't it.
CBIT He 28, prime of his career and and England international with extensive PL experience - whats not to like ?? 🙄 We must be paying him an absolute fortune as mackams, mancs, geordies and others have all been in negotiations with him...
Bod That just shows desperate measures, he's not reliable injury prone. They still need to buy a quality striker, this just doesn't change that.
Chopper_Read If this is our striker for the season I am revising my 13th prediction to bottom three. Not impressed at all.
Placid Chopper_Read If this is our striker for the season I am revising my 13th prediction to bottom three. Not impressed at all. Me too, can I change mine from 5th to 10th please?
l.q.navarro. Not just a striker. We need players to provide some bullets. I'd have taken a punt from someone with an eye for goal from the lower leagues. Offensively, we are seriously lacking !!
Old-smiley-badge What on earth are they thinking signing somebody who's just as likely to be injured as much as Bamford is? Just play Bamford and be done without another probable big wage. Kind of feels like we are going backwards a little. Did I say we'd finish 10th?
l.q.navarro. Jon He can finish granted but... He's too slow imo to have an impact in this league. Does nothing outside the box. He could pick up some scraps, if our tall new sigings cause a bit of havoc on set pieces.
Raposa He’s better than some of the dross strikers we’ve been linked with. The injuries are a concern obvs.
