Adebayor (merged)

[pakjai]

defo dont need any more strikers.. what is more concerning is the defence. Citeh has enough strikers now... buying anymore is stupid. They will end up moaning about not getting enough games and worrt about their chances of not getting picked for the World Cup next year!

I say focus more on defense now as the attacking options are pretty much sorted now.
Focus on bringing in Lescott, JT and maybe another defender. Would defo want to see Marek Jankulovski in the team though. What an exciting left sided defender, good with free kicks and bring out the ball and supporting on the attack.

This is one confusing post.

Last season we were crying out for a quality target man... now we have RSC but Hughes is looking for quality in depth. We don't have anyone else at the club ( in 1st team ) that can carry out the role.. Soooo we need Adebeyor... no question ..

Most of our strikers are 2nd Strikers who can play off a big man except Caicedo who should become a Superstar if he can work out how to win the ball in the air !!..

Ade .. come on downnnnnnnnnn...

So we've sold the Boj then?

11 starts in two years suggests we can't rely on him.

We have 6 attacking forwards who I mentioned in my post, I personly think that's enough, as we weren't exactly short of goals last year were we?

At times, at others we could have plaed for 5 days and still wouldn't have come close.

Again I'm not saying no to Ade coming just that we're not really in dire need and could probably afford to wait till January if need be and see how we're doing.

But why wait? Were getting on with other targets aswell.

Let's also not forget if another striker does come more than likely 2 of those 6 I mentioned will probably be sold/loaned.

Doesn't matter, as Adebayor is better than any strikers we currently have.

Here's how it breaks down (in a Football Manager sort of way) :-P

RSC

Heading - 16
Shooting - 15
Physical - 15
Stamina - 12

Bellamy

Heading - 10
Shooting - 15
Physical - 10
Stamina - 12

Bojinov

Heading - 10
Shooting - 17
Physical - 13
Stamina - 10

Caicedo

Heading - 8
Shooting - 9
Physical - 16
Stamina - 14

Robinho

Heading - 7
Shooting - 16
Physical - 12
Stamina - 15

Tevez

Heading - 8
Shooting - 13
Physical - 17
Stamina - 17

Adebayor

Heading - 15
Shooting - 15
Physical - 15
Stamina - 13


That's how I'd call it anyway. So I'd reckon that we need Adebayor.

Why would Big Phil only be a 9 for shooting O____________o

Well Forlan is not tall and couldnt do it in this league in his prime - let alone now he is over 30. So we DEFINATELY dont need him.

I do take on board what you are saying on RSC and Bellamy. We all know they will miss half the season through injury at the end of the day....

I'd say his prime was during the period where he was European Golden Boot winner twice.

Scored more than Eto'o and Villa last season. Completely two footed player aswell, scored almost identical number of goals with either foot.

Just because he didn't do it at scum it doesn't mean he'd be a complete failure again. It's a different set of circumstances and he'd be playing for a team who play a different style of Football with the added factors of him being supremely confident and having a point to prove.
People forget that he was around 23/24 when he moved to scum and he moved from an entirely different continent. It's difficult to adapt for some people when they have little experience of different surroundings, especially when you have a lot of expectation on your shoulders but you can't quite find your form. It doesn't make you shit and Forlan has clearly gone on to prove that.

I'm not saying we should be any means sign him, but if we ended up with him i wouldn't be to unhappy.
