Realistic Targets?

[Linz]

We played this game on the back of the coach yesterday and were probably left with more questions than answers.

We require:

* A proven goalscorer...
* ... who is cheap to get hold of...
* ... doesn't want much per week...
* ... not too old...
* ... ambitious...
* ... and willing to come to Sheffield United.

So this is your thread to speculate and throw some names into the ring.

 

[bettsyblade86]

No chance of getting anyone with the attributes above, that player just doesn't exist!

Like most job adverts then!

 

[SotonBlade]

Not all of these fall into all of those categories but some of them so here goes:

Marlon Harewood - Villa, Matt Derbyshire - Blackburn, Ben Sahar - Chelsea, Seol Ki-Kyeon - Fulham, Caleb Folan - Hull, Daniel Sturridge/Ched Evans/Darius Vassell - Man City, Alan Smith - Newcastle, David Nugent - Pompey, Michael Chopra/Daryl Murphy/David Healy/David Connolly - Sunderland, Richard Cresswell - Stoke (Please NO!), Craig Beattie - West Brom, Henri Camara - Wigan.

Other in this div and below which could be possible:

Earnshaw - Forest, Ward - Chesterfield, Beckford - L**ds, Lita - Reading

Exactly.

To get a proven goalscorer you have to the pay the price.

compaired to kakka i am...........compaired to ronaldo i'm not !

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Mmmmm, Billy Davies fair kicked his arse when he was at Derby, Billy Davies is now at Forest.

Robert Earnshaw....He also ticks the box for the Linz eye candy

 

[Bladesman]

So a pie per match is all your asking for?

 

[MAQ]

Heres my thoughts on them

Marlon Harewood - Villa, - Too Expensive IMO, Can score though
Matt Derbyshire - Blackburn, - Not likely in their position
Ben Sahar - Chelsea, - Signed for some foreign team already
Seol Ki-Kyeon - Fulham, - Rumoured to be heading out to the middle east ***CONFIRMED, heading to Saudi***
Caleb Folan - Hull, - Would be good because of age but not a proven scorer
Daniel Sturridge/Ched Evans/Darius Vassell - Man City, - Sturridge would be good but unlikely, Evans is a possible loan target, Vassell wouldnt be an improvement IMO but it all depends on what city do in the window
Alan Smith - Newcastle, - Too expensive
David Nugent - Pompey, - Proven and a good option, but again with pompeys situation i doubt it
Michael Chopra/Daryl Murphy/David Healy/David Connolly - Sunderland, - Chopra and Healy are proven, could be good additions, dont know enough about Murphy or Conolly
Richard Cresswell - Stoke (Please NO!), - My sentiments exactly..........Better bloody not
Craig Beattie - West Brom, - Possible, one beattie for another, can score but has been for WBA even though from the bench
Henri Camara - Wigan. - Getting on now although can score goals

 

[BexleyBlade]

I didn't have you down as cheap BB

aye. cheap as chips our beighton

 

[Kev Gee]

Tudgay :lol:

Seriously though id like to see Sturridge at the Lane. I think depending on who Man City sign during the window there may be a loan option there?

No, no and did I mention?



No

No

Is it the teeth linz??

 

[Hilltop Blade 4 life]

How about David Mcgoldrick from Southampton?
Personally haven't seen much of him but he must be doing something right to have scored a decent amount for a struggling team. With southamptons financial situation he wouldn't exactly be expensive and i can't imagine wages would be an issue, surely worth a shout?

 

[BexleyBlade]

Gutted we still haven't addressed this issue. Can't see anything coming through today that will impress many-but I hope to be proven wrong.

Would love to see Beckford at the lane. 21 goals already with a month or so out injured. Gets two goals on his return from injury after coming on as a sub

 

[The One]

What happened to our bid for Nugent?

 

[matth]

It probably never existed.

 

[MAQ]

What happened to our bid for Nugent?

he started playing and scoring, which in footballing terms means his value has increased by about £3m

If I were the man above I would think twice about joining a team that insists on lumping the ball up in the air for me to get battered by huge defenders
