Romey 1878 Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 When we were previously after him he'd have been a good signing but he's too old now, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 I agree with Romey.. on the budget available it's better to buy young players who can be sold on, not players nearing the big '30' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 very good player, but do we need him? i dont think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonButtle Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 good player, but likewise, not really sure if we need him, and we already have a few players in that age group and above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avinalaff Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Can't we ban links to Everton targets? We'll never get the minutes back in our lives that it takes to read the utter bollox that is an Everton transfer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Avin, I have been like that for quite some time, it would be hypocritical of me to view any purchases seriously or good enough to get remotely excited about. On a side note, anyone see sturridge yesterday-outstanding. Would have loved him here this season. Good to see franks dummy come out, looks like he may be trying to get JT and drogba to rebell against AVB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see franks dummy come out, looks like he may be trying to get JT and drogba to rebell against AVB until he had a shot, shouldve had a hatrick (not taking anything away from Krul too, he had a great game) but his movement and positioning was excellent and deserved his goal. edit: Av, what happened to the eternal optimism mate?

I like him, he can shoot either foot, has good pace and he gets into the positions to score - he can take the man on too. He is the man to replace Rooney for group stages. Has the greed you need for a top striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youve just come back from holiday, thought you would be recharged! It's was just a bit of tongue and cheek, but the best way to treat transfer speculation is to see who walks out on the pitch every week. The press know fans are desperate, and know they'll get thousands of hits every week simply by mentioning us. I have to agree with Haf on that one. As for Sturridge, he is confident at the mo, but he misses far too many for him to be successful at Everton. Miss one for Chelsea, and 10 minutes later you get another opportunity, but at Everton you might get one per game, and need to be more clinical. He goes down a bit easy too. I have him in my FF team.

The Regulator Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 (edited) At the moment I'd say Sturridge should be Chelsea's first choice. He does miss a few when he shoots from range, but it's his positioning that is above and beyond anything at Everton at the moment. Whether he is drifting in at the far post or dashing through to the near, he does what none of our midfielders and strikers do, and that's put himself where the probability of a goal is much higher. Almost none of our players get into those areas, even on corners, and if they do they miss. Sturridge runs all game, has a great first touch, good vision and is a strong finisher, as well as possessing a little finesse (the backheel goal springs to mind). He's also English and young, so it's pretty much guaranteed he'll be worth more than Torres in the next 3 years. Exactly the kind of player we need and could never afford.

Bailey Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 Not convinced that Sturridge couple play up front on hs own though. He seems to enjoy the freedom created by the other striker. I do like him a lot though and I think he would be even better through the middle instead of coming from wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonno Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 http://www.booska-p....cato-n3402.html Say £5million Louis, think they're talking Euros. If we get a couple of mil for Bily he might be worth a punt, get a few years out of him and would be good teacher for Barkley. Attempt to sign Royston on a free. Vicious rumour Donavon maybe looking for something permanent... Christ!! . sorry was getting carried away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
