Transfer Window Chat Thread

[Veevs]

Really hope we have a back up striker in mind, we need a goalscorer ASAP the everton game made that very clear. Yakubu isn't the man. We need someone who will get 10-15 goals a season and i doubt roberts, blackman, Yakubu and goodwillie would get 10goals a season between them.

Agree there no end.. we have been saying this all summer.

Suprised we didn't get El Ham if he was available on loan.. Gyan, Gignac etc.. ffs what are we playing at currently.

The tub of guts who waddled around to no great effect for Leicester last season. How bloody depressing.

11 goals in 20 games for Leicester, hardly 'waddling around with no great effect'

[DE.]

We've had 4 months to find a half-decent striker - 4 months from May, and despite roughly a million transfer targets being cycled through the best we can come up with is Yakubu?

Sincerely hope the above is not true, but knowing Venky's it probably will be. Please prove me wrong for once

i agree. beyond depressing!

Obviously in a massive minority but think Yak would be alright, not great mind you. Holds the ball up much better than Roberts and can't be worse at shooting than him!!

Using Roberts as a model is a sure way to get relegated.

Signing Dann will have us looking at the bottom of the KFC bargain bucket for a striker.

I'm still waiting for the excitement. Still looking nailed on relegation candidates at the moment. I think we always willl under Kean, regardless of signings.

[steo]

Pavlyuchenko would be my idea of a great signing,yak is not good enough I hope we are signing a better calibre of strilker

[RibbleValleyRover]

If Roberts was going I would be more in favor of Yakubu coming as I would probably take the Yak over him. But both in the squad? That's really poor.

The mood on here is like a rollercoaster.

I have a strange feeling we will sign a really good striker...keep the faith

[Billy Castell]

We do need a good goal scoring striker. I hope we are trying to get one, and I am not counting Yakubu.

[stu07]

To be honest i'm p*$$ed off. I would take Yak as a second striker, cause I believe he is better than Roberts, but he is lazy. Decent 11 in 20 games last year but we need another striker. Hoping we get one of the strikers who want to leave such as Bendtner or Bellamy who is looking at his options - QPR not done so we could tempt him if the owners say Hughesy is on his way in

Just need a Striker and a midfielder. Would take a few loans, Ngog would be decent and that Kende for Rb. Looks like we are missing out on Lansbury.

Unlike a rollercoaster I fail to see the mood rising and certainly no one is enjoying the ride.

Lots going on , Keep the faith

dann would be fantastic.. but if we dont score goals.. we're doomed!

my faith has been dwindling for weeks. i am sick or the numerous names i hear and am given.. and im giving up chasing them. it's soul destroying!

I have a strange feeling we will sign a really good striker...keep the faith

wish i shared your optimism. this transfer window has been mostly a shambles.

[rogerjonesgloves]

Not that he excites me either but you're wrong there. 11 goals in 20 starts for Leicester.

Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story.

Denis Stracqualursi from Tigre to Everton.

Brought to them by Zahavi according to nicko.

Good stats too.

you’re living in a world of make-believe! With flowers and bells and leprechauns and magic frogs with funny little hats.

[daverich]

Agree with everyone about the yak, we may aswell get benjani or MB diouf back!

We really need to be getting better in than Yakubu, 9 hrs to go!

[socngill]

Hmm. Some will like, others won't!!!

Yeh! and the picture emerges as Zahavi hands Rovers Yak on a silver platter, hardly prime beef.

[Billy Castell]

Yakubu as a squad player? Yes. Yakubu as the main striker? No way. Please can we have another striker lined up as well.

[chaddyrovers]

SSN are saying we are close to signing Yubuku from Everton.

I reckon he will be 1 of 2 strikers coming to rovers. Plus Dann and a midfielder.

Keep The Faith!!!

I really hope so Chaddy, Yak is a tiny bit better than Jase but we need a more prolific striker than them too

[chocky]

Really getting nervous about today.. was bad enough Venkys/Kean leaving it to the last day but still no decent striker and all except the Yak seem to be heading to other clubs... crazy little old Blackburn, will give the owners one thing they certainly have made it interesting here but I bet Uncle Jack is turning in his grave

We all love jack, but his last premiership season was a distater. We spent 60,000,000 odd on complete and utter ######.

[Veevs]

I still don't get it.. whats the point in us having half a dozen attacking midfielders and no one who can put the ball in the onion net..

I'd rather have Yabuku than Yakubu!
