Romey 1878 Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 If any one is happy at our striking options being Kone and Kenwyne Jones next season then you have lost your mind.

johnh Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Who would want to sign a player who has refused to turn up for training or to play for his current club? Presumably he is still being paid. Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenosetoffee Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 I don't mind Jones. I think he is a decent player on his day. He reminds me of Saha a bit. (Saha had a lot more ability but was lazy at times). If we got him on a free or cheap then why not. Lukaku isn't here next season so Jones is a good shout...

Cornish Steve Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Lost in all of this are his stats. What are they like? Do they match the profile of the team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant1979 Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Lost in all of this are his stats. What are they like? Do they match the profile of the team? His best season was 10 in 29 PL games. Suppose he might get more in a better team (I.e. Everton). Only worth considering as it would be a nominal fee like McGeady, and even then I would ship him out in the summer for a profit, unless he had somehow set the league on fire which is unlikely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirallas Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Kenwyne Jones twittering about "Don't believe everything you read in the papers" seems to be a comment to a twitter user claiming he voted for Cristiano Ronaldo at the Ballon D'Or. Edit: or maybe this, I don't know http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2538852/Kenwyne-Jones-fined-80-000-texting-boss-Mark-Hughes-say-wouldnt-play-against-Liverpool.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornish Steve Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 My concern is that we're making snap judgments based on impressions and not in the cold light of statistics. Whether it's KJ or someone else, their passing and completion stats could fit nicely with our strategy. Their positional play, their assists, their runs, and so on, might be ideal. Of course strikers are about goals, but our approach does not require our strikers to score them all. The number of goals scored by Coleman, Oviedo, and Baines prove that.

Peter H Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Stoke got lucky, Jones strike is a breach of contract which means that they can tear the contract up. They had to get rid of him to be able to loan Guidetti. Stoke wins all the way. Guidetti is going to be a monster for them if he stays fit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was signing Ireland permanently that has allowed them to sign Guidetti because he was on loan with them as well as Assaidi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidan Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 This is a fact. Idk why everyone is so negative about this one. Every time I saw him playing he madea pretty good impression on me. He might be alright on his day, but when Lukaku leaves we need someone to put the ball in the back on the net for us. He has 13 league goals for stoke in 4 season, we need someone who will score a lot more than that in a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memmaclub Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 To be honest Jones is a decent prem striker and for 1 mil who cares. I think martinez would have covered off his ability to support the team before buying him. Big guy up front he maybe a squad player but for 1 mil at 29 seems a lot better business than the kone deal. Jones is out of contract in the summer so it isn't going to be a massive outlay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
