The all new Striker thread..

[harr1984]

While I cannot confirm 100% suffice to say that I have come across some information that makes me think so. And irrespective of that information, Soldado has proved to be a spectacular failure in this league to the extent that I would call it a neglect of duty to want to continue with him after 2 non productive non goal scoring seasons

I remember AberYids info the other week which included the player he spoke to saying Soldado looks great in training, and Poch was still hopeful of him eventually performing. That's why I was curious, certainly wouldn't surprise me if we wanted to sell him...

I think chicatito would be excellent.
Just the kind of player we need to pick up on scraps - with a high pressure game things will fall in and around the box.

And if we need late impact sub's he would be great.

100k a week is crazy though. For those type of wages I think we could tempt a more all round player.

You can look like Messi in training but if you are cack during matches.......

Personally I would rather we cut our loses and get rid

 

[indianspur]

Last I checked we had Soldado and Adebayor still on the books. . . .

yeah, so 3 weeks to go and we only have Harry Kane

Those who thought Defoe was overated will have a field day with this guy if we sign him.

Is it really worth him going from the Man Utd bench to the Tottenham bench? Just wondering

I want Berahino

Are you sure about that? according to his twitter feed he was still on holiday on 12 July. Yep, methinks he is still on holiday

Is it any worse than Defoe behaved towards West Ham?

Defoe (or his agent) made noises about moving most transfer windows from what I recall, but I don't think he did it in a press conference with his manager sitting there.

Someone further up mentioned he left his agent to try and help him become a better man, rumour I heard is because he wanted a larger %

Is he good enough to put up with a possible attitude issue?

Defoe got himself intentionally sent off for 2 (was it 3?) consecutive matches to force a move to us.

Classy as normal! I wasn't aware he did that!

At the time I worked with a few Wet Spam fans, he was one of their heroes and it was funny as hell.

Handing in a transfer request the day after they were relegated rubbed them up the wrong way too

Are you talking about Soldado being on holiday? I think this Spurs player was commenting on him in training in general, not this pre season - that he looks good in training, and they just cant work out why he isn't producing on the pitch. Like you say though, not worth anything just doing it in training....

im sure i saw pics of Soldado at the beginning of pre season training with the first group back.

 

[Finney Is Back]

How do you know we are actively trying to get rid of Soldado?

If we're not then there should be serious questions asked of our board and management team!

I would tend not to value the opinion too highly of those who thought Defoe was overrated.

I do agree 100% with that.

 

[Superhudd]

Bringing in both Hernandez and Berahino would probably cement this as probably top 3 off seasons in the past 20 years.

Would both be great signings.

My concern would be bringing in just Hernandez

Id like Berahino but not Hernandez, would prefer a bigger man that we can play off if necessary.
