Baz Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 I had my doubts about Kazim-Richards but a lot of people seem to think he will be really good so maybe he is worth a shot. I don't think anyone on here really knows too much about him to be fair.

MarkBRFC Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 Exactly. People just assume he's terrible, its the brfcs way.
G Somerset Rover Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 35 caps for Turkey, a regular for Gala and Fenerbache in seasons gone by - I don't think he'll come up short in the Championhip. Just out out of interest, does anybody know how he's able to have trials at clubs if it's just with a view to a season long loan?
patrickvalery Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 Firstly i'm amazed he's still only 25 (or 23 depending on which paragraph of the LT story you read). I think he'll do just fine for us if he's used out wide. He's not even close to being a suitable replacement for Best. His game, if i recall, is all about facing the opposition goal, making runs in behind and i doubt his credentials when it comes to putting himself about and bringing others into the game. If he's played out wide he could do a job. However, i think that his arrival will ultimately spell the end for Vukevic. Can't see them both in the same team unfortunately. Shame, because of the two i think i'd prefer Vukevic to be honest.

Shame, because of the two i think i'd prefer Vukevic to be honest. That's what I recall about him also.....I highly doubt he has been signed to lead the line......I'm hoping whoever is in charge of transfers has clocked that Vukcevic is the only one of our players who can play out wide so Richards has come in to provide back-up and competition. Richards can play on the left though so maybe they can both play in the same team....then with Etuhu and Murphy in the middle and Rochina or Formica playing off hopefully Rhodes, if not someone else, and we would have a strong front 6 on paper....we all know what the real issue is though and it wouldn't matter much if we had an unbelievable team on paper.
T.J.Newton Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 hes a good player, just an absolute knobend of a person(very Diouf like), decent for loan signing though.
EWOODACE1 Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 I've only seen him about 4 times as a lot was made of him when England didn't qualify and he was the only Englishman in a tourney a while back and he didn't have 1 good game. That's all I can judge him from His goal scoring record is awful on wiki

bluebruce Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 for those interested: From that video...pretty quick, fast feet too...but seems to be greedy and rash. Wasteful with the final ball, not enough end product. Course, that appears to be all from just one game.

Course, that appears to be all from just one game. It's a fair point but remember: pretty quick, fast feet, unselfish, composed, consistently decent final ball and good end product wouldn't want to sign for us in the Championship. That's players like Santi Cazorla who's just gone to Arsenal......what you described are players like Zaha and maybe even Hoilett as well. Ones round about, possibly higher, than our level.

Fair enough, but it just depends how consistently awful his final ball and selfishness is. Can't judge that from one game's highlights. I would take someone who dazzles less but delivers more, as a general principle. The dazzlers often command fees, wages and hype in excess of their factual contribution to matches. But I'm happy to wait and see. You don't get 35 caps for Turkey by 25 years old if you're a...well, turkey.

John Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 Loan deal close - http://www.lancashir...chards_signing/
LeChuck Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 We're very short on the right wing so this would be a very good move. He's got over 30+ caps for Turkey and they're not a bad team.
Sverre Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 He is born in 1986 as well, which is good. Could be a good acquisition.
bluebruce Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 He is born in 1986 as well, which is good. Wh...what?
Clitherover Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 Wh...what? I think he means he's relatively young.
dwayne cage Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 According to Steve Kean on SSN last night he is expecting to tie up this loan deal very soon.
alexanders Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 According to Steve Kean on SSN last night he is expecting to tie up this loan deal very soon. 24 hrs. Him and Hoilett will sign at the same time.
dwayne cage Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 Cool. Hopefully he'll perform for us. Yeah me too
