Please make this happen.

Please make this happen.

Why? We have Lamela & Chadli sitting on the bench...

I would rather no transfer on the attack position but strengthen the LB.

 

[Barry Mead]

Why? is the appropriate word on this imo, although judging by all the garbage written in the papers about our transfers this Jan, we should ignore it like all the rest

 

[SpurSince57]

Wasn't he the only player who gave the ball away more than Ghaly in 2006?

I was taking the piss.

So, we ship out an ageing striker and replace him with.. another ageing striker!

Any potential new strikers should be 23-24 at the oldest. Ade & even Soldado are not getting any younger.

didn't an ITK (gards I think) say the other day that we were looking at a forward who would not be popular? Could this be who he meant?

In regards to that i think that was berba...

 

[worcestersauce]

Oh dear oh dear oh dear who makes this stuff up?

 

[nedley]

Few other news sources starting to say it too.

Doesn't make much sense in all honesty. He might well only cost 3m but he'll be on a fair wage too and looking for a large contract. It would be quite a big deal.

Money should be spend on a young, up and coming forward with huge potential. Somebody like Matshuayi etc.

 

[spursfan77]

He's awful. Why would we want to sign yet another player who doesn't have a position?

Also I've always thought of him as a bit of a bottler.

 

[kungfugrip]

I can see this happening. He'd be cheap and he's proven (to a certain extent) in the Premiership. His goals per minutes played is decent, but goals per game is let down due to his high number of sub appearances. He ticks a lot of boxes, but hardly inspired. In fact, not an exciting signing at all. Even though he's still in his 20s I would much rather have Defoe.

 

[felmani26]

Kill me....

Kill me now!

 

[Mr Pink]

Imagine selling Capoue and buying Kalou...sort of rhymes in a really depressing sort of way.

 

[Gedson100]

He's been playing up front for Lille, so I guess that' would be the plan.
Plus as a perpetual bench warmer, he'd not mind doing that.

It's got Levy written all over it. £3m, a decorated player that will retain value until inevitably being sold to th middle east or America after a couple of years on the bench.

He has got goals in him though. It's just trading Defoe for a younger variant IMO and like @andyp8080 points out it tallies with the Gards info from the other day.

He's not so bad but yeah, would prefer faith in Lamela or Chadli.

 

[dagraham]

Is this really the best we can do?

Hopefully it's bullshit but if true it will say everything about our ambitions. Hardly making a statement, is it?

 

[Teddy Klinsmann]

I'd rather a sulking Berbatov on the pitch than Kalou. Never ever rated him.
