And if nothing else it's an excuse for a jolly to Amsterdam.

one of the Usual Suspects.

Not brilliant but I spent long enough fiddling with it I didn't want to waste it.

Don't ask why Zigic is headbutting Piquionne.

[Dunnfc]

Love it Owenrilla

[Tom]

Can we not have alan smith peeking his head up at the bottom ;p

Jones appears to not have a shoulder

I'm hoping that the striker is Cardozo.

Am going to the Leeds game tomorrow as well so come on Rovers.

He's Keyser Söze

Brilliant work.

I think the time has come to make a wild move for Usain Bolt, he is practically as tall as all of BF's targets and taller than most so would give us the big man option that he is looking for, he had undoubtable pace which hasn't been seen in a Rover shirt since the days of Roy Wegerle, there are certain question marks over his finishing but you could say the same for Jones, Smith, Zigic and co!!!

He was injured the day that owenrilla got them to pose for the photo

Good work but you have appeared to have missed off Luca Toni

Just for you (and because the picture was amusing)

Jones appears to not have a shoulder

I could have claimed it was the chip on his shoulder but it was an error so fixed.

All you need now is Sam with a pondering look on his face and JW sighing.

No hes already definately 100% sure to sign so these are the other striking options!

[Stevo]

Cardozo starts Vs Sunderland. Will be watching with interest.

Incidentley, Jones starts too.

Ah right, my mistake

[Stevo]

Amazing chance for Jones. Great cross from the right, he is in space in between two defenders. He has a free header and is only around 6 yards out. Heads wide of the goal.

Moments later Cardozo blasts well over from outside the area.

Mr Allardyce meet Mr Kenwyne Cows Arse Banjo Jones!

Stay Away!

[Stevo]

To be fair Jones has caused Benfica problems, but hasn't scored and probably should have two at the moment. Reminds me of someone that plays for us, I'll let you guess who...

Cardozo scores a penalty. He has had a quiet game, was well taken though.

It is hard to see how Oscar would fit in with how we play, simply because Benfica play such flowing, short passing football. This is no insult to Sam btw. It is simply hard to judge how well he would fit into our system - whatever that will be.

Now Cardozo's chance to head well wide from about 8 yards out! Maybe he's trying to get his price down?

1-0, Cardoza with a clinical penalty, all he's done so far.

[andyroversmad]

Where are you watching the match ?

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

May not even be at Leeds tomorrow...it's THAT hot.

Sam succumbs to Met Office hysteria about a heatwave coming. Christ.

[blue and whites]

i can't understand how s'land can spend x amount money on two strikers, when they clearly lack a lot of quality elsewhere!

[Stevo]

Where are you watching the match ?

Betfair.com mate, got some money riding on it too

[Hi Mack]

Look at his penalties on youtube!

If nothing else, he never looks like he'll miss a penalty, God he can strike a ball!

I hope Cardozo is top of our list though....Even if he is having a stinker!

[DeadlyDirk]

Cost me a fiver to register and watch the match, put a quid on Benfica scoring first though and them getting the next corner though, I'm gonna be loaded by the end of the night at this rate!!

[blue and whites]

i think if you look at players who are great at taking penalties, they are often a great goalscorer in play as well. it's all about instincts and skill, they just know how to put the ball in the net..

[Stevo]

Half time and neither have impressed.

Cardozo looks slow and not willing to put much in.

Jones does a lot, but crucially misses a lot too.

A mix between the two might be worth a shout. Get working on that Sam!
