[Archived] Sam's January Targets

[John]

Dindane's finishing is not the best, but his pace upfront would give us another dimension and open up space for other players.

Well we know Sam was interested in Dindane last summer, so likely to be something in it.

Robert Lewandowski has sign for us

roberts going??????

Well done, you found the edit button on wikipedia

[novella]

Judging by nickos post earlier about a target being lined up and him not wanting to say anything before 11 it's a new unknown target

[sam_rovers]

A small pacey player hardly seems a player that would fit into the system we use right now.. unless big sam wants to use him on the wing?

He can put that one down to a near miss then.

Robert Lewandowski has sign for us

roberts going??????

If only ....

[doctorryan]

We'vve dodged a bullet on Araujo. A player who really flatters to deceive. One good piece of skill every few games that makes up for the fact that he's mostly ineffective. Can't see him being a big success in the premier league.

I concur; he's no one to get excited about.

Rovers 1st Brazilian i think.......

best ask the ladies

Sergio Peter was half Brazilian.

[DeadlyDirk]

Sergio Peter was half Brazilian.

Shame we never saw that half

I'm not sure if Lewandowski and Beattie are adequate replacements for McCarthy and Roberts. Beattie is better than Roberts by some way in my opinion, but Lewandowski isn't exactly a huge name.

I may be doing him him a disservice though, he's only 21.

If we did sign those two we'd have 3 strikers below the age of ~23 and just one experienced one!

What? It's a bloody huge name!

[Kelbo]

What? It's a bloody huge name!

Van whatsits of Hessalink is a bloody massive name

The Big Lewandowski.

judging by nicko`s comments about our target making sense after the events of `the last couple of days`, i have a feeling we could move for frazier campbell of sunderland. liverpool are belived to be about to take kenwyne jones but they probably won`t pay enough for sunderland to use the money and sign robbie keane(he`d cost about 8m to 10m), that`s where the likely 2.5m to 3m rovers would pay for campbell comes into it.

possible? he fits the criterea for next season`s ruling, and the preferred criterea of our club, young, promising and english.

Not really as Sunderland paid 3.5m in the Summer which could rise to 6m!

[saxo1man30]

that makes the move even more possible. he`s not really hit it off at sunderland and if the extra money they have to pay is based on appearances then they`d probably want rid. 2.5m to 3m would get them most of their money back and they wouldn`t have to pay another penny to united.

[tony gale's mic]

Not remotely fussed about missing out on the Brazilian; poor scoring record in French league + age + poor track record of his compatriots here all adds up to a big fat wage bill dodged.

Really hope we go after this Polish chap but I think times running out.

[Majiball]

Can I ask where we have been linked to the polish lad Lewandoski (sp).

Has it actually been reported in a paper??

Please no not Campbell.

[mellison24]

Give us some more criteria to guess with, Nicko! It's boring now! Unless you can fast-forward time to 11pm?

[saxo1man30]

why not frazier campbell? he`s a damned sight better than all the other names i`ve been hearing as possibles.

[mellison24]

He's the definition of a young Roberts, but with a better finish. Worth a shot. I just wouldn't think he'd be within our budget tbh.

Do you want to guess how many premiership goals he has scored?
