Louis Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 According to Nigerian journalist Colin Udoh (ESPN and formerly of the Nigerian FA) Reading have had a bid accepted for Anichebe (caveat: he says "it seems"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fearthainn Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Now that he seems to have found some consistency we're letting him go? Can't see it, particularly with our squad depth issues and injuries this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian C Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Would have to be in the region of 7-8m for us to accept really. His goals-to-games ratio is great and in the last couple of months he's been working his arse off on the pitch and looking fitter, faster and stronger than he ever has.

GoodisonRoad Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Would have to be in the region of 7-8m for us to accept really. This. We know they've got cash, and to get a decent striker in is never cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideliner Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 it will be a sad loss of arguably our best attacking force this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodisonRoad Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 how does he get a player who has been playing for Crawley for 2 years mixed up with someone who has scored 5 goals in 12 games for our first team this year? Bollox, he got caught chatting shite basically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodisonRoad Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Fourth Official has actually said this is a go-er... Akpan to Reading that is. Bit of a strange one tbh, they supposedly have quite a bit of cash to spend and they bring in a player from 2 divisions below? Wonder if we have any Sell-on clause...

Avinalaff Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 It's nice to see we appreciate Victor. He deserves positive reward for his determination and belief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 He's been on a journey has the lad. I hope he continues on this uphill curve because he's starting to look the part. His hold up play has been loads better. For all his attributes I feel there is more to come. Lets hope he doesn't get the hump and sulk again.

Lowensda Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 What normally happens is, we think he's on the 'turn', he puts in some cracking performances....and curse of the commentator, he'll do bad or get injured. Once he irons out the inconsistencies within his game, he could be a very useful player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue 250 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Victors pass to Coleman last night for our 5th goal was perfection and probably not what you would expect fom the powerfull target man. Maybe his best is yet to come, his strenght and holding ability make him the perfect foil for Jelavic and Mirallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shukes Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 did anyone else notice a few bursts of speed in last nights game? he looked very laid back and one point and the BAM! a turn of explosive pace, that to be honest i didnt know he had. I have to say i am pretty excited to see Vic these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Beat a couple of guys as well. How that will fair against Prem standard opposition, I don't know but from what i've seen, he just got better and better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FC Clutch Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Anichebe has been great in the playtime we've seen him this season, but he's still too injury prone for me. Great if he doesn't get injured for the remainder of the season. Won't be surprised if he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Akpan done deal. But I think this can be closed now can't it? Mistaken identity . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
