New striker in jan

[Original Dub]

Taarabt from QPR anyone?

Absolutely. Harnessed properly he could be truely amazing. Wouldn't be a huge gamble age/money wise either.

[Chinners]

ok, he's not strictly a striker but there is another fella at QPR who is playing out of his skin at the mo ... 3mil should do it as well

he pulled a bit of a tevez at QPR recently...left the game at half time cuz they were getting thumped and he was being subbed.
just straight left. now is clamoring for more money.

Tbf, this has leaving business been denied but he definitely has been angling for a move.

If you watch Taaarbt play, he is more often than not like Elano; completely ineffective for 95% of the game then (sometimes) produces a moment of pure brilliance which may or may not result in a goal or goalscoring chance. In a team like City's, the constant loss of possession & lack of effort would leave a great big hole in the structure, even worse than Elano did.

If Warnock can fix those problems then they have a player but people should note how NOBODY has signed him, & Spurs have only recently got rid of him when they could have kept him.

with the city team we have now i recon he'll be a hit. And a great price if we are quick.

Bob wouldn't play him. He does all the stuff Bob is trying to tell Balotelli not to do & fails to do all the stuff Bob wants Balotelli to do.

[PeterParker]

If Scouse 2 will offer Cahill for 5 mil (knowing their financial problems), will anyone want him to replace Herman? Hypothetical speaking.

[twosips]

No. As he's not a striker, and isn't technically good enough for our team. He'd definitely not fit in.

[twosips]

Also, Taarabt is not a striker either, and he'd play in the same position as Nasri or Silva, just not as good. Pointless signing.

So who are we getting in Jan then?

Skimmed the thread, lots of arguing and Ted saying No a lot..

no consensus then ?

[PALUS]

[quote="Wooders"]Obviously we're getting one - who ya got?
RVP? agbonlahor? Bent? Recall crocky? Some Italian fella?

Set out your stalls...[/q
man is it enough, how much should be player Mancini needs 50, 150 this becomes a little worse than Chelsea and us success, if it is even with this much money we get there will be measured precisely that, money

That's the problem we have; finding someone attainable who's worth signing. Tevez was the ideal man for the job unfortunately & replacements don't grow on trees unless you find someone as charitable as City (seeing as we've casually discarded Bellamy to do that job for Liverpool, who would have been absolutely perfect to fill several jobs for us).
