well if we have 20 million, maybe we can buy a 20+ goals a season striker.

I am not aware if that is the case, however.

There are talented players out there who won't cost a king's ransom. Players who are out of favour, fallen by the wayside, or simply waiting to be scouted.

...like Eric Huseklepp?

Try to keep up.

For a striker in the Norwegian league, he's not exactly prolific. Players like Lewandowski and Dzeko, who we missed out on in the past, are the type of signings we should be scouting.

I would imagine him being on about £80k/w at City, so he would be looking to pocket £2M in the spring alone. That makes a permanent transfer very unlikely. A loan deal with a fee and City paying half of his wages sounds reasonable, but even that would cost something like £2,5M - for max 15-20 games.

Id only be happy with Roque on these terms

  • Loan until summer to prove fitness with price agreed
  • Same contract as when he left
  • An apology that the grass isnt always greener elsewhere - with a promise he will honour his contract aslong as the club want him

I agree with the first two, not too bothered about the third, don't blame him for leaving.

He would be bound to say stuff like that anyway as every player does at a new club, remember Lucas Neil and his talk of Volcanoes after going to Wet Spam?

I agree with TCO.

I'll be happy with the first two but I am not bothered about the 3rd one because at the time it was the right move for him and for us. We got more money than anyone expected for an injury-prone player. Without that transfer, I dread to think what mess we'd be in and who else would have gone to balance the books. Obviously we'll never know but maybe Samba could have been the next one out of Ewood had Roque stayed or left for a lot less.

I'll welcome him back with open arms. He's a quality football player.
